Notes[]
- Thick red paste is considered a "banned" item by Caesar's Legion, and will be confiscated when the player character travels to The Fort.
- In hardcore mode it has no effect on the player character's Food or H2O meters.
- Restoring health with this item does not count towards the Desert Survivalist challenge.
- HP restoration is increased by Implant Y-7.
- Thick red paste does not restore AP when using this implant.
- The amount healed is not affected by the player character's Survival or Medicine skills, as it is not marked as a food or medicine item.
- The duration of both effects is affected by the Logan's Loophole trait and the Chemist and Day Tripper perks.
Bugs[]
The in-game Pip-Boy description erroneously shows "+19 HP(30s)" instead of +15 Max HP for 240 seconds and +4 HP for 30 seconds.[verified]
