About this mod

Overhauls the Mad Bomber perk so it has actual gameplay effects, rather than merely acting as a much derided recipe gatekeep.

Mad Bomber Tweaks

The Mad Bomber perk from Gun Runner's Arsenal is considered a poor design choice.[citation needed] Its only effect is to act as a prerequisite for some of the new crafting recipes added by the DLC, not something that should be gatekept behind a level up perk to be spent. Mods like Mojave Arsenal or JSawyer Ultimate offer the option to disable it and make those recipes available through normal means.

This mod salvages the perk by giving it actual combat effects like any such perks should, of course related to Explosives, and a bit out there so that it might justify using a mod for it:
  • ESP VERSION ONLY: Mad Bomber now requires level 8, Explosives 45, and Luck 7 or the Demolition Expert perk.
  • When laying down your mines, you can now lay three in quick succession rather than just one by AIMING before (and while) laying the first one. So you can speed up their use to quickly and more lethally boobytrap the area.
  • Your explosions have an extra chance to knock down the targets caught in it, regardless of their remaining HP and stats like the regular knockdown formula uses.

Included is a configuration file to change some of those numbers. Knock yourselves out.
