Hey buddy, I like your mod and think its good idea compared to the base game counterpart. However, I would like to propose a change.
Considering Terrifying Presence is now a trait, there needs to be a pro and con so to speak like the other traits. What I propose (for simplicity's sake) is that the perk doesn't have any requirements and instead subtracts one's charisma stat. My reasoning for this change is that I feel like someone who's presence would be considered "terrifying" wouldn't be too charismatic in the eyes of other people.
It would work something like this: Upon choosing this trait you gain new speech options but you suffer a -2 to your charisma. (I chose 2 purely as an example) If that feels like too little of a negative then maybe subtract more charisma. Strength, speech, or barter could also be other parameters to change upon taking this trait but thats your call.
I know this was a lot to read but I hoped this helped, cheers!
I have an idea. If you don't mind, I'll tell it now. How about changing the effect to this perk-turned-trait ? Whenever you enter a conversation, whoever you speak to, will get a charisma or speech debuff. I don't know if that's how it works, but what I meant by it, is the speech checks you get are reduced by a certain number. So say, you get a speech check, than requires 50 speech skill. With this trait on, that would be reduced to 45. 40 if you have strenght over 6, 40 still, if you're charisma is under 4 or less, and 30 if both are true. (both factors are true, they should work together, no ?) A character that has this trait could be that shy buff guy/girl that makes everyone uncomfortable. lol Sorry if I bothered you. Just had to get this off my shoulders.
Hey Burguois thanks for making this because I was getting real tired of adding it in using console at level 2. This is a great mod and fixes one of the greater perks in FNV Thanks again, ShantySean.
I'm glad someone did it. It really didn't make much sense the way is implemented previously, as you said.
