Mantis Gauntlet

The  is a weapon in Fallout: New Vegas.

Characteristics
Unlike the Deathclaw gauntlet from Fallout 3 (which ignored damage resistance), the mantis gauntlet ignores all damage threshold similar to the Cram Opener. Visibly the weapon consists of a severed mantis foreleg, bound to what appears to be a medical brace or similar device and fitted to the wearer's arm.

Locations
The mantis gauntlet is sold very rarely by certain weapons vendors, particularly those dealing in very rare items. The NCR Quartermaster at the Hoover Dam and the Great Khans weapons dealer have been known to occasionally sell the item. It can be bought from Blake at the Crimson Caravan Camp when the player is level 16 or above, and also be bought from Mick in Freeside.

Bugs

 * Mantis gauntlet does not ignore DT. The piercing strike perk's DT bypassing still works as normal.
 * When used it has the same sound effects of a Power Fist

Appearances
The appears only in Fallout: New Vegas.
