📋 About This Mod

Tough and Deadly Bombshell Piper

Description

This mod is based on davidg53's excellent Bombshell Look for Piper mod (used with permission).

I was frustrated that Piper was too much of a goody two shoes and would turn on you at the slightest mistake (accidentally hitting a settler during a raid, etc.).  She also wasn't very capable in combat.

Piper can now fight!  She will no longer be on the ground (constantly) holding her legs anymore, unable to continue!  You won't run out of Stimpaks keeping her going.

  • []Piper is a lot tougher now and has the following perks (Toughness, Life Giver, and Adamantium Skeleton)

    []Piper doesn't charge forward into a group of hostiles like a suicide bomber anymore

    []Piper is a highly trained fighter now and has received special forces training

    []Piper no longer attacks the player if the player does friendly fire to friendlies or non-hostile NPCs

    []Piper no longer reports crime against the player

    []Piper has no default outfit, gear, clothing, or weapons.  This prevents these default items from reappearing in her inventory and stops her from using and equipping them constantly.  This may be an immersion breaker for some but if you plan on choosing her as a companion this helps a ton with her inventory management.  If you don't plan on using her as a follower then there is little point in using this mod.

    []No level cap - Piper will level with you all the way up to max level

    []Increased carry weight

    Instructions

    If you plan on adding this mod to an existing game you will need to do the following:

    • []Open up the console and select Piper, then type in:

      []unequipall

      []Close the console and trade gear with her (E key)

      []Take all (R key)

      []Open up the console again and type in:

      []resurrect 1   (if you did it correctly she will disappear for a second and re-appear)

      []She will now be updated with the stats and abilities from the mod

      []Close the console and give back all the gear you took from her

      []Use the T key to have her equip each item of gear

      []Start kicking some ass!

      Mod was tested and doesn't break any quests
