Weapon Strength Requirements are now 2 points lower than normal for you.— In-game description

Weapon Handling is a perk in Fallout: New Vegas.

Effects[]

Taking this perk grants a -2 reduction of the Strength requirement of all weapons, i.e. having better accuracy with ranged weapons and faster swings with melee/unarmed weapons.

Notes[]

  • Taking the perk allows an Explosives- or Energy Weapons-focused Courier to effectively use any weapon from those categories with a Strength attribute no higher than 6 and the appropriate skill requirements.
  • Taking the perk means 2 points can be reassigned to other attributes without worrying about not meeting Strength requirements for desired weapons.
