Loose Cannon

 is a Trait which only appears in Fallout: New Vegas.

"From Frag Grenades to Throwing Spears, you can throw weapons 30% faster at the cost of 25% less range"

Specifically, your attack speed is increased by 30%, and your Action Point consumption for thrown weapons is reduced by 30% as well, but you lose 25% of thrown weapon velocity, shortening the distance that you can hit a target from. This penalty can be compensated for by taking the Heave, Ho! perk later on.

Affected Weapons

 * Melee
 * Throwing hatchet
 * Throwing knife
 * Throwing spear


 * Explosives
 * Frag grenade
 * Pulse grenade
 * Plasma grenade
 * Holy Frag Grenade
 * Stun grenade

Bugs

 * This trait does not apply to dynamite or long-fuse dynamite, despite both being thrown weapons.
 * The Dead Money weapon throwing knife spear is not affected by this perk.
