Outdoorsman boosting item: maps

<< < (2/2)

August:
Sounds good actually. Maybe as said above, make it a consumable found in a random encounter. Perhaps an old pre-war gas station and when you walk in you find some unique items. Maybe oil, wrench, super-tool-kit, crowbar, a couple T.V dinners, a free highwayman parked nearby with the keys on the skeleton corpse of the owner next to it and finally... a map also on the skeleton mans person.
Once consumed you get like a 25% or 50% boost to your outdoorsman which can be useful for a PvP alt with low outdoorsman.

I suspect this is just another shallow ploy to have apes with no od and compensate with "magic" itanz.  So they can maximize their pvpness even though they're one dimensional min max shit builds with 1ch 2st etc,.  "I wants to be superman, army of one!"  I love NCR (my home away from home) when people want to go hunting and farming then the inevitable "who has ch?" question.  Really is it too much to ask for people to make more versatile chars instead of all wanting to be the "hero" in the saga?  Then you see these lame threads of how the game devs should just make all these abilities built in, like wtf, quit making alts with only one purpose.  I really think devs should "encourage" having chars that are more suitable to being more self reliant.   Like irl, having 1 ch should be a burdon, 2 st?  should be a real problem, I dont think you would even be able to put metal armor on, make them limited to robes, see if that pisses apes off.  1 in?  ur so dum, it should be a major headache as you will mostly be drooling like the mindless automoton you are, books?  you aint into redin no dam books!  pe is well actually fine as it is, but maybe with 1 pe have encounters constantly, as you wouldnt be able to scout the terrain at all, your basically blind!  en 1?  scorpion poison should probably kill you unless immeately treated (btw posion in general should get a buff to its deadliness imo).  Well thats my thoughts for the moment. consequences for making 1 dimensional shit builds....

avv I don't think you ever gave numbers about that OD boost you mentioned. Anyway personally I think it could be 20% or 150%, it wouldn't be a very violent change on the game if it's an item you gotta carry and which you can lose anytime.

An alternative idea about maps I just came up with: when you find the item "map" (paper map like in avv's original post), the surrounding Worldmap squares are revealed to you. Say, and area of 10x10 squares (or 9x9, because if it's an even number, it wouldn't have an exact center the player would standing on). This means that if there are locations nearby, they will be revealed. Could appear randomly in the inventory of raiders, caravaneers, travellers.

I love how you can't access Sierra unless you get the location via dialogue with some NPC. Maybe we should have more of those locations. Not necessarily new ones (no point with the low population), I am talking about already existing places like Mariposa, Ares or Waterworks.

You could even have the option to make your own maps with Holodisks: if you use a Holodisk to make a map, your Worldmap info for the surrounding 9x9 (o 10x10 or whatever) area of squares will be copied into the disk. You can then give it to another player, who will copy the data into his Pip-boy and then that portion of the Worldmap will be revealed to him/her if s/he didn't have it already.

I guess it shouldn't reveal bases or tents, though.

Obviously the meaning of my post was lost on you (kinda like telling my dad there probably won't be sport hunting in heaven), no surprise, continue about your awesomeness.
