📋 About This Mod
Quick patch for the broken Ninja perk. The text of the perk says \"Increase critical chance by 15%\". Every other perk that does that adds a flat X% chance to the critical chance. Ninja instead multiplies the existing critical chance by 1. 15. Old formula: 10% crit + (15% of existing 10% crit) = 11. 50% critical chance. Corrected formula: 10% crit + 15% crit = 25% critical chance.
Quick and dirty fix for the broken Ninja perk in Fallout: New Vegas, correcting a formula bug that made the perk nearly useless. For players who want the Ninja perk to work as intended. 600 endorsements and 10,701 downloads show community demand.
