Has no one in the Wasteland thought to dual wield Power Fists?

I mean, what would stop them from doing that? You'd be a mechanical god of the Mojave. You'd think at least a raider on psycho or a Paladin would have at least tried it. Ah well, maybe in Fallout 4.

I'm sure that all kinds of ridiculous Goldeneye levels of dual wielding will be present in Skyrim with Guns. Patience.

Not much would surprise me at this point.

When you've got two power fists, you don't need a Pipboy. Also, you're assuming everyone in the Wasteland has a Pipboy.There's no reason a raider couldn't strap on two and go nuts.

It`ll be psionics, I`m pretty sure. To get new PSI abilities you need to find certain patterns on a wall, mostly so the code for Skyrim shouts can be reused and it sorta makes sense in a "unlocking the nonexistant potential of the human brain is actually really easy" kind of way.

That`d be a hella lucky raider then. Prewar tech doesn`t grow on trees.

It`s probably more of an engine limitation thing, but personally I~d rather have a hand not covered in a powerfist and thus retain some sort of manual dexterity. That aside, why bother ? You`re still only going to be punching with one hand at a time.

They used to allow that, back in 1st edition before the grimdark set in. The current edition now only allows you to have a single close-combat weapon, but strangely enough now has rules for dual wielding pistols.

It's obviously an engine limitation, considering there's no dual wielding, I just thought it was funny that no one has even thought to try it in the whole of the Fallout universe. Not even a reference or anything.

With nothing on your fists, yes. Not with a power fist, no.

How would you put it on? I mean I guess you could do it if you had veronica help you.

Stick them in the dirt facing upward, do a handstand, boom, you're ready to go.
