Veronica has 103 unarmed skill?

Post » Wed Mar 09, 2011 5:46 am

According to her http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Veronica_Santangelo she has 103 unarmed skill. I decided to check this out and used the "getav unarmed" console command on her and its only saying she is 31 unarmed. Whats up? :shrug:

all I can tell you is that she kicks a$$ 110% of the time up until level 25, then she has problems with deathclaws, etc. Upgrade her fist, and she's actually more powerful than you are!

I agree, its just I cant help but think shes bugged or something. Does it really matter in the big picture? Probably not. What does your Veronica report as her unarmed skill if you dont mind checking?

Use ~ to open the console, then click on Veronica to select her. Next, type: 'getav unarmed' and press enter.

Weird, I loaded up a save from just before getting Veronica. If I do "getav unarmed" on her while she is just standing there in 188 camp, then she has 103. If I load up a save just after getting her, she has 31. I guess I might have to use the setav command to reset her back, eh? :lightbulb:

What's funny about that is that she's the only follower who doesn't seem to level. Most of them get better as you level- but apparently her stats do not increase. Imagine if they did.

Considering how disgusting she can be, I don't imagine that to be a bug but a last minute balancing fix.

She dies way too easily without being the appropriate level. And with the PC level fix in place, she can still get messed up wearing power armor. In fact, I had one occasion where a fiend must have got a shotgun crit because her head popped off. She's very good, but if Boone's balanced, so is she.

Are you using a mod to fix her not leveling up with you? Her skills tend to reset when she levels up. Happens to other companions from time to time too.

It doesn't matter, give her a fully repaird ballistic fist (get them from the pratorians in caesars tent) and she can do some damage....

It weird that she doesn't level up though, when i was getting friendly with Arcade to get his quest done, i noticed that he started to get really good!

It's certainly fun to see her send enemies flying in all directions when you give her the "Pushy" gauntlet.
