Duck and Cover

I've hacked. I've used it. But I never really got it in the game. Where is it? Another item I've never managed to find was the PipBoy Lingual enhancer. I only know about them from an item cheat I got. And NO I didn't use it to beat any of my games. I got for the sole reason to see if it had anything I missed in it.

The lingual enhancer is found by talking to Mrs. Bishop after a good fuck. Tell her that she doesn't sound like usual new reno scum, and then ask her if she might come from vault city, etc etc. She'll eventually tell you bably neeabout the lingual enhancer. I'd need to verify, but you probably need a high perception and/ot speech skill to get these nodes.

As for the hintbook, after you finish the game, opt to keep playing and go see Father Tully in New Reno. He'll give you the hintbook.

Before you screw you have to talk to her about Vault City. If your perception is high enough (I think thats the thing that's measured), then you'll say that she had a look of nostagia.

Yeah, she'll tell the Lingual Enhancer is hidden in her safe. I think it gave a +10% to Speech and some exp. It requires a high INT to get the dialogue lines..

No you don't, I've done it without without previously talking to her about her origins. You can trigger knowing about her coming from vault city after sex - as I highlithed in my original post in fact, as that's how I've always done it.

But if the sex is really bad she just fall asleep if you talk about the wrong issues, so watch out!

Well what do you need to have GOOD sex with her?

I believe you need a high endurance.... or maybe agility?

Obviously, the Kama Sutra Master perk helps. Do the karmic perks gigolo or sexpert help at all? Experience matters, right?

Oh well my bad endurance explains it, i only have an EN of 8 . Well i guess i'll take some buffout or something before i get busy

You need a whole lot of stuff: Charisma, Agility, Endurance and Strength, though I don't remember which of those is more important but I think I got it right... Importance is 50%, 25%,13% and 12%. And all sex related perks make you gain "points" (Porn Star, Kama Sutra Master, Gigolo and Sexpert), though some don't really combine (say there's a bonus for gigolo or sexpert, but if you have both (which you can), you only get 1 "bouns").

Character attribute points doesn't have to be high when you create the character. There's lots of drugs around, use them. CH, AG, EN and ST are easily upped with drugs. You get the Sexpert perk easily, usually after first couple of times, and if you're a woman you can sleep with Joey the thug as many times as you want. To get the Gigolo perk just keep your eyes open and sleep with someone when you get the possibility. Womens usually get it easier, there's more meat around for them. So getting the Lingual Enhancer isn't really that tough..

Getting the Sexpert/Gigolo traits depends on the same stats as I specified earlyer... If those stats are low you might get Gigolo right away, while if they're high you'll get Sexpert... In the middle you'll need to screw around more to get either...

Well, I never have figured out what's the difference between Sexpert and Gigolo.

None really, except Sexpert is harder to come by then Gigolo...

Really? I thought it was the other way. For me, at least.
I usually get Gigolo in Cat's paw in New Reno, Sexpert in The Den/modoc.

Yeah, that' just 'cause you have the proper stat combination... Usually people don't however and thus get Gigolo before.
