📋 About This Mod
When conversing with Christine Royce, you can ask her the question \'\'What weapons are you skilled at?\'\'. Christine will pantomime a variety of things, indicating that she is skilled in: Energy Weapons Explosives Guns Melee Weapons Unarmed Unfortunately, Christine\'s ONLY tagged weapons skills are Energy Weapons and Melee Weapons. The other skills have laughably low values, making her usefulness with these weapons minor at best. This mod gives Christine a custom, inherent ability which mimics the natural increase of an NPC\'s tagged skills. As Christine levels, this ability will add boosts to her Explosives, Guns, and Unarmed skills, roughly equivalent to her normal level progression. By level 16 she will have a Skill level of 100 in ALL the skills indicated by her dialogue. NOTES Yes, this makes Christine INCREDIBLY overpowered. I take no blame for this: Bethesda gave me the idea, so it\'s their fault. :P
This Fallout: New Vegas mod adjusts Christine's skills to align with her dialogue, addressing a lore inconsistency. It's a small, focused fix for players who notice the mismatch. With 741 endorsements and 11,461 downloads, it's a well-received tweak, though it hasn't been updated since 2011.
