About this mod

Reworks the Pack Rat perk to give the player increasing amounts of DT based on their carry weight.

So the story with this mod is that I use a mod that makes anything that isn't a weapon or armor weightless, effectively making Pack Rat useless. So, I decided to rework it with inspiration from the Junk Shield perk in Fallout 76, giving the player increasing amounts of DT based on their carry weight.

The thought process behind the balancing of this rework was some early-game DT that you can benefit from even if you have 1 strength. Meanwhile, late-game, as you collect more things, you'll get a greater benefit from the perk. It is more difficult to gain this benefit with lower strength than it is with higher strength, and if you have low strength, you will not benefit from the entire perk. Having more strength gives you greater benefit from this perk, but strength is not actually required to take it.

In summary:
  • Removed intelligence 5 requirement
  • Removed barter 70 requirement
  • Reduced minimum level requirement from 8 to 4
  • Carrying 100 pounds or more will give you +2 DT, 150 pounds or more gives you +4 DT, and 200 pounds or more gives you a total of +6 DT.

Enjoy!
