📋 About This Mod

Work in progress, but mostly finished. always looking for good new locations to place these guys. please give me ideas ;)

this is my second mod, feedback is always appreciated.

Adds 3 variants of Cloaked Scorpion that sit around popular roads waiting for unsuspecting travelers.

The idea behind this mod is to thin down late game players caps. Eventually you will have more caps then you know what to do with, this mod helps prevent that.

They have always been in the Mojave. you just don't see them ;)

Detailed information about Cloaked Scorpions:

Cloaked Scorpion:

Scorpions that sit cloaked, and will run off with peoples caps if they get to close.

Cloaked Scorpion Hunter:

The Hunter variant, just like the base variant will sit cloaked, but will attack anyone who gets too close rather than running away. These scorpions will remove all the ammo from your equipped weapon, making it hard to fight back.

Scorpling:

Scorpling are young Cloaked Scorpions can be spawned using a Scorplings Goo Ball. They will run away with your enemies ammo, and will follow you around till they eventually die. To keep them alive you must give them a steady supply of Cloak Scorpion Plasma.

Devil Scorpion:

Devil Scorpions are like Hunter variants on steroids. taking more damage and dealing more damage. They are rare, and usually only show up if you are pursuing a fleeing Cloaked Scorpion.

Cloaked Scorpion Larvae:

Only drops from Hunter variants. if you keep this in your inventory for an extended period of time it will turn into a Scorpling Goo Ball.

Scorplings Goo Ball:

Throwing this on the ground will spawn a Scorpling that will aid you in combat by draining enemies ammo.

Cloak Scorpion Plasma:

Drops from Cloaked, and Hunter variants. Used to heal the constantly draining health of Scorplings

Devil Scorpion Blood:

Dropped from Devil Scorpion variants, give this to a Scorpling to make it "stronger"

Incompatible mods:

None, tell me if you find any.
