Ripper (Fallout: New Vegas)

The ripper is a weapon in Fallout: New Vegas.

Characteristics
Good for a low-mid level melee player. The beauty of the ripper is that the attack button can be held down and it will dismember anything in front of the player. This makes it very good for large hordes or large, slow creatures

Locations

Bugs

 * Sometimes, a ripper is in your inventory that is available for use and does not show up in the shop menus, but if it is dropped, you will not be able to pick it up again.
