Mod:Fallout: The Frontier/Mass Arachnophobia

"Arachnophobia is wide-spread in the Frontier. When Skitters is in your party, enemies are more likely to attack her than you."Mass Arachnophobia is a perk in Fallout: The Frontier given to the Courier while they have Skitters as a companion.

Effects
This perk adds 200 to Skitters' Threat value, causing enemies to prefer attacking her in combat. However, her low health (especially before the completion of her quest) coupled with her inability to wear armor makes her much more likely to die in combat.
