Energy Weapons (Fallout: New Vegas)

Energy Weapons is a skill in Fallout: New Vegas. This skill determines the player's combat effectiveness with energy-based weapons.

Math

 * $$\text{Initial level}=2+(2\times\text{Perception})+\left\lceil\frac{\text{Luck}}{2}\right\rceil$$

Example: A starting Perception of 5 and Luck of 5.
 * $$2+(2\times5)+\left\lceil\frac{5}{2}\right\rceil=15$$

In Fallout: New Vegas, energy weapons are more distinct. Lasers tend to have fast firing, accurate beams and lower damage, while plasma has a slow moving yet powerful projectile.
