Big Brained

Big Brained is a special perk in the Fallout: New Vegas add-on Old World Blues.

Effects
Your head cannot be crippled, you gain +10% Damage Threshold (minimum +1) and +10% resistance to chem addictions.

Bugs

 * The description listed on this perk pertaining to Damage Threshold shown in the game is incorrect. The perk will add a permanent bonus of +1 to your DT no matter what, and then multiply that value by 1.1, rounded. For example, if your character has both ranks of Toughness, the Sub-Dermal Implant, Reinforced Spine, and this perk, it will lead to a naked DT of 14. ((3[2]+4+2+1) * 1.1 = 14)
 * Because of these errors in the maths for the Brain perks, especially when compounded with rounding, both perks may result in the same bonus even for high values (30+) of DT, causing this perk to be unequivocally inferior to Brainless.
 * In addition to the bug mentioned above, you may never gain the rounded 10% if you are "naked" or wear body armor with 1-2 DT, any headwear is excluded. But if you're wearing body armor with 3 or more DT, you will actually lose the permanent +1 DT and only gain the 10%.
