Ways to temporarily increase your lock picking skill other t : Fallout: New Vegas

» Fri May 20, 2011 3:13 pm

Are there any clothes or chems that can temporarily increase this skill? I would like to get my lock pick skill to a point where I can use a combonation of mags (20+ points with that perk), clothes and chems if thats possible.

Also I havent found any clothes that increase my science skill yet. Do they exist in this game?

Raising the accompanying SPECIAL stat will do it.

So your suggestion is to get a perception impant?

I'm making no suggestion. I'm merely presenting a reminder, in case you forgot. You can wear clothes or use chems that boost perception.

I think if you complete one of the followers of the apoc quest you either get a 10 science labcoat-- or was it 10 medicine?

mentats will boost perc and thus will give you 4 extra lockpick skill assuming you werent at 9-10 perc already.

Also a hat will add 2 skill as it adds 1 perc.. so if you were 7 perc you can reach 10 perc that way temp.

Hey, if you don't want to be broke, do what I did, buy the luck implant. Next stop, the +1 Luck outfit, then BLACKJACK!
