Ammo Effect

Ammo effects are unique effects new in Fallout: New Vegas. Ammo effects can modify:

-Damage

-Damage Reduction*

-Damage Threshold

-Fatigue

-Gun Spread

-Weapon Condition

Ammo effects can subtract from one of these values, or increase a value through either multiplication or addition. Once an effect is created, it must be applied directly to ammunition through menus in the ammunition object. Note that doing this is considered changing that ammo object, and will override changes made by other mods or patches.

• Modifying damage reduction using ammo effects is not verified, since New Vegas uses neither Damage Reduction nor Armor Rating. Damage Threshold has replaced this value.
