Silent Death is a Fallout, Fallout 2, Fallout Tactics and J.E. Sawyer's Fallout Role-Playing Game perk.

EffectsEdit

While Sneaking, if you hit an enemy in the back, you will cause double damage using a HtH attack. This perk will not double the damage caused by a Critical Hit and Critical Hits do at least two times normal damage.

NotesEdit

A weaker equivalent of this perk called "Backstab" appears in Lionheart. It has also been carried over to Fallout 3 in the form of Sneak Attack Criticals, which does not require any perk.
