Cattle Prod (Fallout: New Vegas)

The cattle prod is a weapon

Characteristics
In addition to its damage-causing potential, the cattle prod also causes fatigue damage, which can help knock out targets quicker.

Special attack
It has a special attack, called Lights Out, which does 125% damage in V.A.T.S. at the cost of 8 more action points. This attack requires a Melee skill of 50.

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 cattle prod can successfully strike about 2495 times from full condition before breaking.
