It svcks super hard when a random raider throws a grenade then half the room blows up because it filled with red barrels or cars then you instantly die and loose 15 of progress. Seriously why does every enemy outpost need like a hundred things that explode.

Either explode it or be exploded!

Because YOU are supposed to be using them to blow up the BAD GUYS.

Don't take cover behind things that explode. Pro tip.

i really hate how i can't throw a grenade to hit the broadside of a barn, but those darn Raiders throw grenades and Molotov cocktails with surgical precision.

Two reason i got the third rank of stealth (Light Step i think it was called) no more mines going of i can't see!

Also get yourself the armor perk and there are components that will make you immune to being set on fire!

Does it also not trigger wire traps ?

The second rank of the Stealth perk will make it so you don't set off trip wires.

yep that's right. Makes a huge difference for me in exploration mode, playing hardcoe personal mode

Not sure how effective it is, but power armor at least has mods that increase resistance to explosives.

Hi Wandering Vault Guy.

To balance this out instead of using Stimpaks to heal your limbs, even if 4 get blown off, get to a bed and sleep for an hour and you're good as new.

i think all armors pieces can upgrade with paddled to reduce explosive. I am playing on Surivival mode, with 3 pieces paddled, 300hp sometime i was too late to defuse the landmine i only take about 40% hp unless it is bottlecap mine then it is instant death

Does Toughness reduce damage from explosions, or does it only reduce damage from direct hits?

Its overall i think.
