📋 About This Mod
From the author of the famous Realistic Crippled Limbs Effects here comes another one great mod.
This mod makes some more sense of Scrounger and Locksmith perks by adding a chance to any locked safe to spawn one ★LEGENDARY item if successfully hacked. This chance is based on two things: lock's difficulty and, therefore, your Locksmith perk's level, and your Scrounger perk's level. The higher those levels, the better are chances to get the ★LEGENDARY item. I'd like to keep exact formula in secret, but, let's say, if you lockpick a Novice safe without any Scrounger perks, there is a ~4% chance that you will find something with the star on it, and, on the other hand, if you lockpick a Master safe, having a four stars Scrounger perk, there is an almost 100% chance that you get something more valuable and useful than just a pipe pistol and a handful of . 38 ammo. ★HAPPY TREASUREHUNTING, WASTELANDER!!!★
Just to let you know: if you'll lock the safe again with console command, it won't get a new chance to spawn a ★LEGENDARY item. The only way to get another try to get the ★LEGENDARY item from the same safe is to wait until the cell respawn. Don't forget to endorse it if you like it. Thanks)
UPD 1. 01: Fixed bug when unlocked by default safe would spawn a legendary item. Rebalanced formula a little.
