Rolling Pin (Fallout: New Vegas)

The rolling pin is a Melee weapon in Fallout: New Vegas.

Characteristics
A plain wooden rolling pin used in baking to flatten dough, with a couple thin streaks of blood down one side. It is the weakest melee weapon in the game and thus practically useless. Even with a Melee weapons skill of 100 and all the affective perks, it is unable to kill even the weakest enemies in the game without more than a few swings.

Special attack
It has a special Lights Out attack that does 125% damage in V.A.T.S. at the cost of 6 more action points (requires a Melee skill of 50). Note that in Fallout: New Vegas melee weapons do double normal weapon damage when used in V.A.T.S.

It is possible to execute Lights Out outside of V.A.T.S. (without the required Melee skill of 50 to perform the move) by initiating a power attack (hold attack button) while moving forward.

Durability
The rolling pin can successfully strike about 495 times from full condition before breaking.
