“Your limbs take 50% less damage from Animals, Mutated Animals, and Mutated Insects, you gain +25% resistance to Poison Damage, and can eat Mutated Insects when you're in Sneak mode.”— In-game description
Tribal Wisdom is a perk in the Fallout: New Vegas add-on Honest Hearts.
Effects[]
Taking this perk grants a 50% reduction to limb damage when attacked by animals, mutated animals, and mutated insects (greatly decreasing the risk of crippling), a 25% increase to Poison Resistance, and the ability to eat the corpses of mutated insects when crouched, with each consumed insect granting +12 Hit Points, and in Hardcore mode, -12 Starvation.
Affected creatures[]
Notes[]
- The "Devour Puny Insect" option is functionally and visually similar to the effect and mechanics of the Cannibal perk used to eat human corpses.
- 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.
- The perk icon depicts the Vault Boy carrying a tomahawk and a knife, standing over a dead radscorpion.
