Fallout 2 Hints
First Aid
1 of 2: First Aid will let you heal minor wounds, although it doesn't work in combat. Since you can't use First Aid in combat, and you can only use it a few times a day, it is not one of the most useful skills. That is, you can rest for healing anyway (except in a few locations), and you'll still need to rest to recharge this skill after a few uses.
2 of 2: Besides, first aid books -- which are pretty common -- will increase your skill by reading them. You can eventually pump up your skills to around 90% or so by repeatedly reading these books, although the effectiveness of individual books decreases as you reach higher skill levels. Still, I found the books to give me most of the increases I needed to this skill.
