The Boring Perk Overhaul

When I began my first Survival playthrough with removed health scaling, I realized that my damage kept increasing too quickly not only by using better weapons, but mainly because of perks. At first my goal was to modify only the damage increasing perks (e.g. Iron First, Commando etc.) for my own personal use, but in the end I decided to go a few steps further and ended up with this simple perk rebalance/overhaul.

In the future I would also like to remove or adjust damage increasing effects from other sources like magazines, companion perks and chems.

This is the first mod I ever created and/or published and I do not have much experience with CK, so I'd be very happy to hear your feedback and suggestions in the comment section.

Brief overview of changes:

• []Removed damage increase bonuses from most perk (e.g. Commando, Gunslinger, Heavy Weapons).

  []Points invested in Strength still increase your melee damage (vanilla formula DamageMultiplier=1+(Strength×. 01))

  []Perks increasing critical hit damage still retain their effect, but the bonus is now significantly reduced.

  []Status effects like disarm, cripple or stagger are now more apparent in game.

  []Adjusted some perks to be less beneficial (e.g. Lifegiver, Medic, Chemist).

  []Critical hits are now possible outside of V. A. T. S. and scale with your LUCK stat.

  []Some perks have been swapped around (just a personal taste).

  []Some perk ranks were removed so that 100% immunity to radiation or chem addiction is no longer possible to achieve.
