science

Using 1,2, tactics and New Vegas. So, I have been thinking, how potent EMP based weapons are in lore and the gameplay and was rather surprised. EMP weapons are oddly weak. They don't affect cyberdogs, implants, energy weapons and such. They do affect robots. Not sure about power armour, was...

It does electric damage as far as I can tell. Not sure how protons factor into that, or what inversal would even mean. If it was just inverse, then wouldn't they call it the inverse proton axe instead? Or is this just pure, unadulterated, science-themed gibberish? Wild speculations welcome.

I keep reading that the highest science check requires 170% skill, and it's mostly just for a laugh. Anyone know what that is? Or at least where to find it? Can anyone confirm that it even requires this much skill?
