📋 About This Mod

Description

The radiation effected people in different ways. Most died or became ghouls, but some developed strange powers and abilities.

As you have been in stasis for 200 years, you have the power to absorb powers from your enemies once slain. These powers will appear on:

Standard humans  - low chance (5%)

Human Bosses - High chance (80- 90%)

Chlidren of Atom - High chance (80- 90%)

UNDER THE BRIDGE - 100% (There  is a mutant in a underground facility under the sanctuary bridge, he has 5+ powers which you can get for killing him, but he is very tough)

REMEMBER: The idea is for the powers to support you and finding them is part of the fun, that's why you must defeat enemies with these powers. You may find it takes exploring the whole map to collect them all, or you can just go face off against the children of atom. But go prepared and not before around level 15, because youll probably die a lot. Or you can gather a few powers first and take your chances. Completely up to you.

Powers list

Use hotkeys ONLY, item added into interior under sanctuary bridge there will unequip speed, timestop, invisibility and shapeshifting. To use item, go into third person and then hotkey equip them.

Please use Hotkeys to equip armor based powers, and inventory to unequip them as some powers like stop time may get you stuck in your inventory if equipped from the pip boy, see known issues below.

Most powers are used as a grenade slot, you can obtain your first random power from a dead mutant's body outside of vault 111. The rest you have to obtain from enemies

Summoning shadowman and illusion summons will only work while in combat

For balance, some of the more powerful abilities do health, rad damage or AP drain when equipped (such as Ethereal)

IMPORTANT! Overuse of the ONLY most powerful powers will result in blurry vision and a crippled head but this can take a few mins of continuous use to take effect, which should NOT kill you unless your using a mod the changes headshots etc (for example Stop Time will cause this)

Enemies WILL use most powers against you, but use them when they see fit If they have them. Sometimes you can
