Unarmed Perks

  • There are four special unarmed perks that you can learn from certain people in the game.

    * Khan Trick (finish the "Aba Daba Honeymoon" Great Khans faction quest): This perk lets you temporarily stun enemies by throwing dust in their eyes.
    * Legion Assault (talk to Lucius in Caesar's Tent at the Fort with an Unarmed skill of 50+ and a good or neutral Legion reputation): This perk lets you use an aggressive assault to brutalize enemies.
    * Ranger Takedown (talk to Ranger Andy in Novac about his leg and pass a Speech 30 check or do the "Checking on Charlie" Zone 4 undocumented quest): With this perk, you can stun an enemy.
    * Scribe Counter (do the "Beyond the Beef" Strip/White Glove Society faction quest until you get White Glove Society Attire or Formal Wear, then transfer one into Veronica's inventory): This perk allows you to perform a defensive move to keep an enemy at bay.
