The sterilizer glove is a weapon in the Fallout: New Vegas add-on Old World Blues.

Characteristics[]

The sterilizer glove is similar in appearance to the scientist glove, save for its bright red color. It causes critical heat damage, which sets enemies on fire with a successful critical hit. This weapon is affected by the Pyromaniac perk.

Variants[]

  • Scientist glove, the common variant.
  • Corrosive glove, a quasi-unique green variant that deals caustic acid damage over time upon a critical hit.
  • Dr. Klein's glove, a unique variant that used to belong to Dr. Klein (when he still had use for it) that lowers a targets Strength and DT against energy weapons upon a critical hit.
  • Dr. Mobius' glove, a unique variant that used to belong to Dr. Mobius (back when he had arms) that is significantly more damaging and frenzies targets upon a critical hit.
