X-2 Antenna

The X-2 antenna is a unique weapon in the Fallout: New Vegas add-on Old World Blues.

Characteristics
It is one of the many special antennas used to make the radar-guided repulsive field around the Big Mountain Research and Development Center, and for the transmissions of the X-2 array. When used as a weapon it focuses brainwave patterns and does electrical damage, causing extra damage to robots and Power Armor users.

Special attack
It has a special Pain Frequency attack that does 200% damage in V.A.T.S. at the cost of 13 more action points (requires a Melee skill of 50).

It is possible to execute Pain Frequency 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 X-2 antenna can successfully strike about 620 times from full condition before breaking.

Location

 * The X-2 transmitter antenna array can be found on top of the satellite dish.
