Golden Gloves

The  are a pair of unique unarmed weapons in Fallout: New Vegas.

Characteristics
Like boxing gloves and boxing tape, the Golden Gloves inflict a manner of 'sub-lethal' injury, in the form of fatigue damage. When an opponent takes too much fatigue damage, it knocks them out rather than killing them.

If the opponent cannot be fatigued, the gloves will instead inflict 15 damage to their health. Of the three, the Golden Gloves inflict the most fatigue damage at 50 points, versus the boxing gloves' 35, and the boxing tape's 20.

Variants
* These weapons inflict Fatigue damage (FTG) in addition to their regular damage. ** Damage inflicted per shot if the target cannot be Fatigued.

Locations
The Golden Gloves can be found on the casino floor of the Lucky 38 casino, in the VIP Lounge. The lounge is situated at the top of a small staircase to the left upon entering the Lucky 38. They are located on a bookshelf behind the bar, with a framed issue of Boxing Times adjacent to them.

Behind the scenes

 * The Golden Gloves is the name of an annual competition in the United States for amateur boxers, usually referring to the National Golden Gloves competition.
 * The icon for Golden Gloves is stored in the folder which houses icons associated with perks, possibly indicating that the weapon was at one point intended to be a perk instead.

Bugs

 * This weapon will apply the same fatigue damage even if the attacked NPC is blocking.
 * No additional fatigue damage is applied when the player's attack results in a critical hit or sneak attack critical.
 * Sometimes when you switch to another weapon after equipping and using the Golden Gloves they will still appear as equipped even when you pull out the other weapon.
 * Sometimes using the Ranger Takedown with these equipped will cause the game will crash.
 * Confirmed on Xbox that your game will NOT crash if Ranger Takedown is used while the Golden Gloves are equipped, nor will the game crash if you use Ranger Takedown a NPC with the Golden Gloves Equipped.
 * Unconfirmed if you kill a NPC with the Golden Gloves equipped using a Ranger Takedown and also unconfirmed if your game will crash if you render a NPC unconsious with the Golden Gloves by fatigue damage.
