silent death

Does anybody use this perk?
I was thinking about creating another charecter, maybe a sneaky one and I was wondering if anybody uses this perk and finds it useful.
I was thinking that with the ripper and it I could do so massive damage...
 
RE: silent death

I never use it, it wouldn't be that useful though, you need to use the action points to run behind the person, and you would need good sneak skill too. It would be ok with a super sledge.

Play my chocobo racing game or get my evil walkthrough or something:

So I just got lvl 18 and picked Silent Death for my melee character. Problem is I'm not sure if this perk even works...

To test this perk out, I saved and put on sneak before walking behind some guy in redding and then I hit them in the eye with a super sledge. The damage output did not double (for a normal hit and a critical), it was about same (and sometimes lower) as if I didn't use sneak and go behind them.

Anyone know whats going on?
 
Silent Death

With this perk, you can use the Sneak skill and attack a critter using a hand-to-hand attack from the back for double damage.


There you have it. This works for Hand-to-Hand only, so attacking with your Sledgehammer won't do anything.
 
It does work. I can't promise it works reliably, though.

HtH includes melee weapons, I'm pretty sure.
 
I found this perk basically useless. Probably because my sneak and unarmed skills were lacking, but it isn't really a useful perk.
