Piercing Strike (Fallout: New Vegas)

 is a perk in Fallout: New Vegas.

Effects
Piercing Strike makes all of your Unarmed and Melee Weapons (including thrown) negate 15 points of Damage Threshold on the target. Since most enemies have a DT at or below this amount, this perk essentially turns you into a Deathclaw. If a melee character doesn't want to spend the necessary points to achieve the 70 in unarmed, melee weapons that ignore all DR/DT like the Chainsaw and Thermic Lance are excellent choices.
