The sonic emitter - tarantula is a weapon in the Fallout: New Vegas add-on Old World Blues.

Characteristics

The sonic emitter - tarantula is an Energy Weapons pistol with bonus damage against robots and power armor wearers, as well as a unique "critical strike incendiary" effect which ignites the target on a critical hit. This modulation of the sonic emitter has a purple oscilloscope.

As a one-handed energy weapon, the sonic emitter - tarantula is affected by The Professional perk and counts as an improved holdout weapon.

When scoring a critical hit, the enemy will catch on fire, and may possibly die instantly. The unique incendiary effect is affected by the Pyromaniac perk.

Variants

Locations

  • In Higgs village House #00, on an inactive terminal on the second floor.

Notes

  • The critical hit incendiary effect creates a small fireball around the target, igniting nearby non-player characters.
  • As with all sonic emitter modulations, it is necessary to install the Blind Diode Jefferson's personality chip before this remodulation can be applied to the sonic emitter.
  • With the perks Pyromaniac and Laser Commander this weapon causes very high damage, and one of the critical incendiary effects is an autokill which explodes the target into fiery giblets.
  • The sonic emitter - tarantula can fire a total of about 495 times using standard cells, the equivalent of 62 reloads, from full condition before breaking.
