Implants Questions & Advice

Post » Thu Dec 08, 2011 1:18 pm

K so i have around 15k caps and my controller ran out of battery so while it's charging. I was wondering if the HP Regen Implant is worth the 12k caps and how fast would you say the regen is? My character is a lvl 13 unarmed specialist and im also planning on getting the SubDermal Implant to increase my already high dmg threshold, so i was wondering how much DT does it actually add? Worth the 8k caps?


Spanks you very much!

The DT implant gets you 4 points in DT, but how much the regeneration upgrade heals you per second I do not know. Seems like it's a strange formula in the script.

It's like one health every 10 seconds. Stimpaks, food and clean water are so prevalent I can't imagine why you'd bother wasting the caps or the implant slot on it.

I bought it. Comes in handy when you aren't using fast travel a lot. Puts all that travel time to good use and saves stims/food for when you're getting [censored].

FWIW I waited till I had more caps than I knew what to do with before buying it. I could have bought it as early as level 12, but I waited until level 25 when I had 25K or so in my wallet. Personally, while it does work, I'm wondering if it was nerfed for some reason. It would be way more useful if it was 1HP/s or so. Still not fast enough to unbalance gameplay any more than swallowing some Sarsaparilla mid-battle, but fast enough to make a difference.

My controller isn't fully charged yet and im enjoying my bowl hits atm :). But i'm planning on getting the DT implants and see what happens from there. I dont really need the extra SPECIAL implants so ima save my caps and see if i stumble upon some badass unarmed weapons/armor.

It's 5, actually. Unless you always have 1DT even in your underwear...

Badass armor, you say?


I'm just gonna leave this one here, then. Arcade Gannon's quest gives you the best damn armor in the game.
