Bugs

  • PCPC The description listed on this perk pertaining to Damage Threshold shown in the game is incorrect. The perk will add a permanent bonus of +1 to your DT no matter what, and then multiply that value by 1.1, rounded. For example, if your character has both ranks of Toughness, the Sub-Dermal Implants, Reinforced Spine, and this perk, it will lead to a naked DT of 14. ((3[2]+4+2+1) * 1.1 = 14) [verified]

Notes

  • Compared to the Brainless perk, you gain an additional +5% Damage Threshold at the cost of -15% chem addiction resistance.
  • The DT added by this perk and Brainless does not work correctly. See talk page. A fix for the PC version is available here.
  • Synergizes well with the perk Chem Resistant and Old World Gourmet Dead Money for 66.25% chem addiction resistance.
  • However, it synergyzes poorly with Eye for Eye, as it reduces the total number of limbs that can be crippled.
  • Big Brained shares the same Vault boy image as Brainless.
