A few words about the weapon
Super Cattle Prod (SCP for short) is the best friend of melee fighter.
- It is the only weapon (for now) that has electrical type of damage (along with regular Cattle Prod of course)
- SCP is most efficient against Metal armor and metal Armor Mark II, because it deals 100% damage to the wearer of the first and a bit reducted (10/1 DR/DT) to the wearer of the second.
- Just good weapon for PvP and PvE (animals usually have low electrical resistance).
It's good because...
- It's death animation is awesome.
- It has Accurate perk, which adds 20% chance-to-hit with this weapon.
- Electrical resistance can not be boosted by Drugs , so SCP deals the same amount of damage to Psycho-drugged as it would to non-drugged. All other melee weapons have Normal type of damage, so killing druggies in good armor without use of SCP becomes very hard task for melee fighter.
- Electrical resistance is (in average) lower than or equal to Normal resistance of Armors (with one exception).
One exception
Tesla armor has 90% electrical and only 20% normal damage reduction. So you'd better always have some Ripper, Super Sledge or Power Fist to face it. However those, who wear tesla armor usually are drugged too and have 80-90%(without\with Toughness Perk) Normal damage resistance.
How to get
Problems:
- Merchants sell SCP rarely.
- Players usually do not sell this too(because energy experts usually have no need in it - they usually craft shooting things for themselves or for their friends/gang members).
- To craft it you should get Profession: Energy Expert:2, which needs good Char Point ( Intelligence ) and Skill Point (Energy Weapons & Science) investments, which are not always acceptable for melee character.
Good part:
- If you decided to get Profession: Energy Expert - the crafting of SCP will be pretty easy (for high level chars only, because you will still need to get some high-quality resources from unprotected mines).
- You can always try to find some energy experts in good-populated cities and ask to do one for you (of course this will cost good amount of caps).
- If you are member of one of the Player-driven factions - you can always ask friends to make one for you. If you aren't - you can always join one.
Kind of compairsion to other melee weapons
- Min. Damage is 5 points higher than Ripper's (Max. Damage is same for both).
- Average Damage is 1 point lower than Super Sledge's , but SCP's AP cost is point 1 lower.
