I just wanted to know what Dead Money is like on hardcoe mode. That little warning you get before you go through to the trap seem to suggest that your health gets constantly reduced even if you're not standing in the cloud. I completed Dead Money without too much trouble on normal mode with a gun focused character, but I wanted other people's opinions on how hard or easy it is on hardcoe mode. Thanks

Just companions die and when in the villa outside your health slowly drains and stops going down at 25%

How slowly would you say, roughly? Similar to being poisoned or slower?

Slower then being poisoned. execpt in the most dense areas of the cloud but those damage you hardcoe or no.

You'll have far more problems with the traps than the cloud. A steady stream of stimpaks, water and food will deal with the HP erosion easy enough.

turn it ON and if u don't like it turn it off

If DM is not played in HC mode it would totally defeat the main challenge of the DLC IMO. HC mode really does make DM hardcoe.
