Ulysses' duster is a piece of clothing in the Fallout: New Vegas add-on Lonesome Road.

Background[]

Ulysses has been in possession of this jacket at least as far back as the time after the First Battle of Hoover Dam. He was present at the Divide when a package brought by the Courier activated nuclear warheads that devastated the area. Afterward, when eyebots were activated in the military bunkers and scavenged the debris, they identified the flag marking on his back and mistook him for a U.S. soldier, healing him and saving his life.[1]

Characteristics[]

The duster is a sleeveless black coat emblazoned with a United States flag on the back; the thirteen stars representing the commonwealth states. The rest of the outfit consists of a shirt, black pants, and a pair of black boots. There are several accessories, including a pair of tribal-like necklaces, a bandoleer, and kneepads. The entire outfit is dusty and weather-beaten.

When Ulysses is encountered in the Divide, he will be wearing this outfit and Ulysses' mask.

Notes[]

  • Ulysses' duster appears in both playable and non-playable versions. The non-player character version of the duster is worn by Ulysses, and has a slightly higher Damage Threshold of 15. Only the playable version can be looted from him.
  • It is possible to get an additional copy of Ulysses' outfit: take the duster and mask from his corpse and a second one will exist in the footlocker.
  • The DT to weight ratio of this armor is only equaled by the Courier duster.
  • Despite Ulysses giving his outfit at the end of the add-on, if he lives he can be found wearing another one later, near the edge of the cliff overlooking the Divide.

  1. Ulysses: "Your package, the message inside, awoke medical machines... close to the one that shadows you... began to build themselves, then others. They only take what parts they find in the Divide, never roam beyond it - can't even leave the silos without a human to shadow, like hounds. Maybe they saw the flag on my jacket, thought I was of America. If so, history saved me. A sign."
