📋 About This Mod

Does what it says on the tins, adds new ghouls with jumpsuits, raider armors, combat armor variations and more!

It adds 1 new enemy type called the "Armored Glowing One", they are uncommon and only spawn when the player reaches level 22

As of 1. 1:

All Ghouls with armor now have dt/dr matching the armor they have equiped

In additon to that i have added 2 more base feral ghouls and roamers, I have added 2 new Reaver variants with the following changes to base reavers

TTW: Nerfed health from 1100 to 600

FNV: Buffed health from 240 to 600

Raider/Leather Armor ghouls will have 2dt/8dr

Combat Armor ghouls will have  6dt/20dr

Metal Armor ghouls will have 8dt/15dr

PA clad ghouls will have 15dt/30dr

Works with ttw! just use the TTW plugin instead of the NV one!

Side note, the talon ghoul has been swapped for a generic combat armor one with helmet for FNV users. both plugins should have the same amount of variations now!

COMPATABILITY:

Not compatible with anything that edits the encounter tables for ghouls or the ttw DC versions, or edits ghouls in other wasy(unless its scripted)

Compatible with Vault 34 Ghouls Have Vault Suits

Feral Ghoul Resource Pack
