Tribal Wisdom is a perk in the Fallout: New Vegas add-on Honest Hearts.
Effects
Take 50% less limb damage from Animals, Mutated Animals, and Mutated Insects, gain +25% Poison Resistance, and the ability to eat the corpses of Mutated Insects in Sneak mode (crouched) through the option: "Devour Puny Insect." The devouring is functionally and visually similar to the Cannibal perk. Each insect consumed grants +12 Hit Points, and in Hardcore mode, -12 Starvation.
The "puny insects" consist of:
Notes
- Devouring an insect does not change its contents, i.e. eggs, meat, poison glands, etc. will still be there if the insect spawns them upon death.
- Equipped weapons are holstered when devouring an insect and remain holstered afterwards until re-drawn.
