Disease Resistance

Disease Resistance is a derived statistic in the SPECIAL character system.

Overview
Each uncooked consumable, attack from a diseased creature, or environmental hazard has a percentage-based chance of inflicting a disease. Disease Resistance decreases the chance for a player to contract a disease from all sources, however certain perks may reduce the odds for a specific source.

Disease Resistance can be increased by being Fed and Hydrated, which require maintaining a player's food and water needs. Each effect increases disease resistance by 15-35%. The perks Iron Stomach and Thirst Quencher will also increase disease resistance when eating and drinking uncooked or spoiled food. The Vaccinated perk increases resistance to disease specifically from attacking creatures. The Natural Resistance perk increases resistance to diseases contracted from the environment.

The Antiseptic legendary effect grants 25% environmental disease resistance per piece, up to a maximum of 125%. Disease resistance can also be acquired from consumables.
