Dec 25, 1998 - Fallout 1 Walkthrough For PC 1.5

Back

- Go to the south end of Old Town and talk to Slappy. Slappy will send you
  to Harold. Give Harold $5 and ask him about the Deathclaw. Go back to
  Slappy and ask him to take you to the Deathclaw cavern. When you get
  there, immediately leave.
- Go to the Crimson Caravan and take evverything from Demetre's desk and
  if you're male, screw Keri.
- Leave the Hub, and go to the Brotherhhood.Fallout 1 on Kevin Johnston's Blog. 300Bucks.ca, Mississauga logo design company. website design, kevin johnston, 300 bucks.

Brotherhood
- Get the Glow quest from Cabbot.

Glow
- Right before you enter it, use your RRadX pills.
- Use the rope on the metal ladder. Desscend down the crater. Go south, take
  a right, and then head north to get to the corpse with the holodisc. Read
  the holodisc. Optionally raid Levels 1-6 except for 5, and do not repair
  the power generator. Don't attack the robots, either.

Brotherhood
- Give the tape to Cabbot.
- Ask for some weapons and ammo from Taalus, and watch the training on Level 1.
- Go to Vree on Level 3 and ask her forr her mutant autopsies report and
  take the computer course. Read the report about the autopsies. Also, talk
  to Sophia, ask about Brotherhood history, and read the holodisc that she
  gives you.
- Go to Maxson on Level 4, offer to scoout the northwest for free, and ask for
  some weapons. Also, be sure to ask him about the Brotherhood and read his
  holodisc.
- Repair the Power Armor on Level 3. Geet the systolic motivator from Michael.
- Go to Level 2 and into your room (toppmost room). Dump all of your holodiscs
  and useless items except for Vree's disc into one of the lockers. Leave
  the Brotherhood for Necropolis.

Necropolis (optional)
- Don't kill anyone. Navigate the sewerrs and offer to fix the water pump
  for the underground ghoul leader. Don't kill any rats, and get the parts.
  Once you get the parts, bull**it Harry and fix the water pump. Also, be
  sure that you free the ghoul prisoner. Optionally get the water chip.
  If you do get the chip, return it to the Vault. (You've got Power Armor
  or at least Brotherhood Armor, so the rats shouldn't do much damage,
  or any damage for that matter.)

Junktown/Hub (optional; on your way to Vault 13)
- Buy some explosives from one of the mmerchants from either city.

Shady Sands (optional)
- Solve the radscorpion problem by bloccking the cave. Place the dynamite
  as close to the weakened wall as possible (it should tell you this

Shady Sands (optional)
- Get the quest to find Tandi from Araddesh and Seth.

Khan Raider Camp (optional)

Shady Sands (optional)
- Return Tandi to Aradesh.

Boneyards
- Get your fortune told from Chuck.
- Go to the Followers' Library. There aare three Children of the Cathedral
  robes in a room on the first floor. Here is a rough ASCII map showing
  you where the robes are:
   
       room            .  stairwell          * - Nicole
            |          .   to basement
        |----   *      .    
        |
        |                  ...
        |    entrance
        |-------------

  The robes are on the south end. Also, be sure to ask Nicole about the
  location of the Cathedral. Don't ask for assistance, however. That
  complicates things a bit.
- Go to Adytum, and go to Tyne, the merrchant. Get one plastic explosive
  in case. (Tyne's in the basement in Adytum; the stairwell is in a shack
  to the northwest of the entrance to Adytum.)
- Partially complete the Deathclaw quesst (get the parts for Miles). It's
  a good idea to have Power Armor for this one. If the Deathclaw comes
  towards you, run away.

Cathedral
- Go speak with Sister Francis or Ton aand barter for a red Cathedral pass.
  Use the pass to open the locked door. Put on your robes and go to the
  fourth floor.
- On the fourth floor, lockpick the foootlocker and get the electronic
  lockpicks. Go back on the first floor and lockpick the door next to
  the door that you opened with the red pass. If you can't lockpick
  the door, then use explosives. They will open the door. And if you
  haven't done so, immediately put on your robes.
- Blow up the Cathedral by talking the  Master out of his plans. Be sure
  to get the Psychic Nullifier, free the prisoners, and hack into the
  computer on Level 1. Also make sure that you have at least read Vree's
  mutant autopsies.

  After the mutants leave, use the electronic lockpicks to open the
  door. Enter the base.
- On Level 1, hack into the computer annd head for Level 1 and go to
  Level 3. After you get in Level 3 and pass the forcefield, put on
  your robes. Go to Level 4.
- On Level 4, repair Mr. Handy and bloww up the Military Base using the
  Infiltration Approach.

Playing with a character with an Intelligence less than three...and getting
high on Mentats...and on perks...

Vault 13
- Kill all of the rats. Wait for a day,, and go back to the Vault. Go to
  the water storage room and take their Mentat pills. Head for Shady Sands.

Shady Sands

  you'll need to. After you level up to 3, you can take the perk "Smooth
  Talker" if you want to have "normal" dialogue conversations.


    
ENDINGS
=======
Well, this is what I view as the ultimate spoiler.

- Mutant armies are drawn away, they esscape to the west. Happens
  regardless to what you do.

- Necropolis
  - Rediscover engineering, create new technological breakthroughs.
    Happens if you fix the water pump and enter Necropolis before
    the 88 day limit.
  - Necropolis is invaded by mutants. Happens if you...
    1) take the water chip and not fix the pump.
    2) enter Necropolis after the 88 day limit.

- Boneyards (Followers)
  - Nothing. Happens if you visit them and complete the game in
    less than 88 days.
  - Followers are invaded by mutants. Happens if you take longer
    than 88 days to destroy the mutant threats.

- Shady Sands
  - Aradesh and Tandi start the NCR. Happens if you kill the
    radscorpions and return Tandi after getting the quest.
  - Shady Sands falters, has bad start. Happens if you kill Aradesh.
  - Shady Sands is invaded by mutants. Happens if you take a long
    time to complete the game and you kill everyone there. (I'm not
    sure about this one.)

- Junktown
  - Killian establishes firm control over Junktown and life
    is fair and safe under his law. Happens if you kill Gizmo.
  - Gizmo establishes control over Junktown, expands casino,
    and dies while choking on an Iguana-on-a-Stick. Happens if
    you kill Killian.

- Brotherhood of Steel
  - Assist NCR in bringing technology. Happens if you join
    the Brotherhood.
  - Take over NCR and start the 'Steel Plague.' Happens if you
    kill Rhombus.

- Hub
  - Nothing. Happens if you complete the game in less than 88 days.
  - Hub is invaded by mutants. Happens if you complete the game if
    you take more than 88 days to destroy the mutant threats. 

- Raiders
  - They break up with the death of Garl. Happens if you kill
    Garl.
  - The raiders continue to terrorize the local people. Happens
    if you visit the Raider camp, but in the process you don't
    kill Garl.

- You
  - Your involvement with the communities is documented by future
    historians. However, nobody knows what happened to you.

    What actually happens is that the Overseer kicks you out. He'll
    say that you know too much about the outside world and he is
    afraid that you will kill the other Vault dwellers.

    If you have the trait 'Bloody Mess' or have the karmic title
    'Berserker,' your character pulls out a .44 and blows the
    Overseer away. Alternatively, you can leave a gun in one of your
    item slots, and after the Overseer finishes talking, you can
    enter combat mode, switch to your weapon, and then blow him away.

    Your character starts the community called Arroyo, and the
    overseer is court marshaled and is banished or executed, I don't
    know. Eventually, you'll learn that the Vaults were all a special
    case involving the government. This plot is finely displayed
    in the sequel...Fallout 2, the post nuclear adventure set 80 years
    ahead of Fallout.

If you don't go to a specific area, then you won't see the ending for
the area.


TACTICS
=======
Here are some general tips to fine-tune your combat. Also included is a
boss guide.

GENERAL TACTICS
---------------
- You can cripple your foe at five poinnts if you score a critical while
  aiming at their legs, arms, or eyes. If you cripple your foe's legs,
  he or she will have a hard time walking around. If you cripple one of
  the enemy's arms, then he or she won't be able to use two-handed weapons
  (and of course, if you cripple both of them, then the enemy will have to
  resort to unarmed attacks). If you cripple your opponent's eyes, then he
  or she will suffer from reduced Perception levels.

- Aiming for the eyes usually gives a hhigh critical chance and does gobs of
  damage. Also, on male NPC's, hitting them in the groin makes them fall
  down.

- Always use the right weapon for the jjob. Sometimes, a .223 Pistol won't
  do you that much good (i.e, long range combat) while the Sniper or the
  Combat Shotgun will work well.

  Generally, burst weapons do peanuts for damage against armored targets.
  For example, lasers are good against leather armor, but don't do much
  damage against critters with power or metal armor. And burst weapons,
  well, you can just forget about them. Don't confuse this info with aimed
  shots, however. You can do heaps of damage with an aimed shot, especially
  to the eyes or head, regardless of what weapon you use or what armor the
  target is wearing. You can pacify mutants with Desert Eagles and 10mm
  pistols if you keep on aiming for the eyes.

  And it is pointless to waste precious ammunition against little critters
  like rats. Always go for unarmed/melee attacks if you can. If you have
  a Super Sledgehammer and Power Armor, then you can kill the Deathclaws at
  the Boneyards without much trouble.

- Also use the right ammo for the job aas well. AP ammo might seem to be
  better than JHP ammo while hitting armored targets, but the game engine
  always gives lots of negative modifiers to damage with AP ammo. AP ammo
  penetrates better than JHP ammo, but always use JHP. It's the best type.
  FMJ isn't that bad either. The only exceptions to the rule seem to be
  AP and Explosive rockets, which to me seem to deal about the same amount
  of damage.
 
BURST WEAPON TACTICS
--------------------
- You can give your shots "up close andd personal." This works well in the
  early game. Garl, the raider leader, can be killed in one hit...without a
  critical! (I once did 71 hp damage to him w/o critical using JHP rounds
  and 54 using AP rounds)

- Burst shots have a wide area of effecct. If an ally is in the middle, you
  might want to not do a burst shot. Here is an example of the
  "burst cone:"

                  X (you)
                  |
                 /
                / |
               / |||
              / |||||
             / |||||||
            Area of effect
          
  This is why giving the shots "up close and personal" deals gobs of
  damage. The shots saturate the target with bullets, dealing an immense
  amount of damage. If you attack multiple characters at range with
  a burst shot, then both will get hit.

- If the target is heavily armored, donn't use burst shots. You will see
  this happen to you when you get power armor and mutants are trying to
  kill you with miniguns.

SNIPER TACTICS
--------------
- Sniping is a good idea for immobile ttargets, such as the master, or
  against unarmed critters. It is also good for long-range combat.

- Sniper Rifles, Hunting Rifles, and Asssault Rifles are your best bet for
  long range sniping. However, the Sniper Rifle is the best. You can also
  use the Assault Rifle in the burst mode.

  The Sniper works well against any target, even if it is armored or not.
  It has a damage range between 14 and 34 hp, compared with (max) 16 with
  the assault and 20 with the hunting rifle.

  Hunting Rifles work OK on lightly armored targets. The Assault rifle is
  all right for mid-armored targets and good for bursting on lightly
  armored targets.

- You can use a Combat Shotgun for shorrt distance sniping, such as fighting
  unarmed or melee-weapon using mutants or humans. It is the best weapon
  for mid armored targets, and is excellent for short range control. It
  works well in conjunction with Power Armor when fighting Decker, and can
  even  be used to pacify Deathclaws.

  If you get your hands on the .223 Pistol, it is even better than the
  Combat Shotgun. The only drawback is that it is less accurate and it has
  only a 5 ammo magazine. This gun eliminates the need for energy weapons
  later on.

  In general, combat shotguns and the .223 pistol are extremely effective
  in short-range combat, like the fights in the Hub.

- If you have a high energy weapons skiill, get a Plasma Rifle. No armor can
  withstand Plasma damge well. I got 132 hp on an eye shot on a Deathclaw
  once. The Turbo Plasma Rifle only costs 4 AP's for a single shot!

- You can kill Deathclaws easily this wway with a high small guns skill and
  high luck. Get a sniper and/or .223 pistol, cripple their legs, and then
  go for head and eye shots when they are down.

  In general, the above tactic works well against unarmed people and shines
  when used in tandem with a super sledgehammer. (You can hit them, run
  away, and hit them again while conserving ammo. The spiked knuckles work
  well here.)

- If you have good small guns skill (1220%+), then go straight for aimed
  shots. 150%+ should give you a 95% chance to hit anywhere at decent range,
  even at night.

- If you use long-range weapons, you'lll get a negative modifier if you are
  attacking critters at really close range. This is an issue with the
  Fallout combat engine.

MELEE TACTICS
-------------
- If you have a sledgehammer, use the wweapon against unarmed critters. Aim
  for the legs. After they have been crippled, you can score aimed shots to
  the head and eyes easily. Rippers work just as well.

- If you have Power Armor and have spikked knuckles, then you can use those
  against any critter...regardless of their armor. I dealt 46 damage to a
  Deathclaw once (critical to the eyes). Power fists are even better, and
  can kill scores of enemies. Ditto for Super Sledgehammers and Rippers.

CATHEDRAL / MILITARY BASE TACTICS (Cowboy approach)
----------------------------------------------------
- It is recommended that you bring the  water chip to your Vault and kill
  the Regulators. Their metal armors sell well, and you need the experience.

- If you want to assault the base, heree is a good list on what to bring.
  This might be a bit steep, but if you do kill the regulators, there
  are many metal armors and they sell for $1000.
  You: Advanced Power Armor, 2 Psychos, Turbo Plasma Rifle, 300+ cells,
       80+ stimpacks
  Ian: .223 Pistol, 300+ ammo, 30+ stimpacks
  Tycho: Sniper Rifle, 300+ ammo, 30+ stimpacks
  Katja: SMG, 600+ ammo, 30+ stimpacks

- Enter the Military Base at night, aroound midnight. There are few guards
  in the base.

- Guard Tycho and Ian; they don't have  much armor and their weapons deal
  quite a lot of damage. If they die, be sure to take Ian's and Tycho's
  weapons.

- There are many, many, many mutants thhere. Here is a list of what I think
  is there.
  Cathedral:
  - Level 3: about 15 mutants, several robots and COC techs plus the Master
  - Level 2: 5 mutants, some scientists and COC chanters
  - Level 1: 2 mutants, one COC member, several centaurs and floaters
  - Ground floor: 1 nightkin, lots of humans
  - 2nd floor: 2 nightkin, one COC member
  - 3rd floor: 3-4 nightkin
  - 4th floor: 3 nightkin, Morpheus
  Military Base: (night)
  - Outside: 4 mutants
  - Level 1: 10 mutants, 3 robobrains
  - Level 2: 15 mutants, 2 robobrains (note: two mutants were dead...because
             of what I don't know.)
  - Level 3: 5 mutants, 1 human
  - Level 4: 5 mutants, Mr. Handy, 3 robobrains and 6 humans plus
             lieutenant
  Military Base: (day)
  - Outside: 4 mutants
  - Level 1: 13 mutants, 3 robobrains
  - Level 2: 13 mutants, 2 robobrains
  - Level 3: 5 mutants, 1 human
  - Level 4: 5 mutants, Mr. Handy, 3 robobrains and 6 humans plus
             lieutenant
    NOTE: The mutants on future levels will regroup after attacking. This
          holds true for the night approach.
 
          Also, if you kill the mutants within three turns, then they
          won't set off the alarm. (In other words, one fistfight can
          last up to three turns.)

BOSS TACTICS (or big creature tactics)
--------------------------------------
Fallout doesn't really have any bosses, but it does have its share of
powerful opponents that you will meet in the game. This section has
strategy information for the biggest of the bad guys.

- Garl (The Raider Leader)
  ------------------------
  Hit points: 70
  Armor     : Metal Armor
  Weapon    : Desert Eagle .44
  Difficulty: Hard

  Watch out...this is one of the two fights that can result in your death.
  Since you are attempting this fight in the early game, it is quite
  difficult. Equip the SMG and go burst right in his face. And, as always,
  use stimpacks...but in this case, frequently.

  Garl also has about 14 allies, which are fairly easy kills. The only ones
  that should give you trouble are those that weild guns, like Petrox,
  Tolya, and his female raiders.

  Ian comes in real handy during this battle. The fight is difficult, but
  with the amount of equipment that you'll gain, is well worth it.

- Gizmo (The Casino Owner)
  ------------------------
  Hit points: 70
  Armor     : None
  Weapon    : Mauser 9mm
  Difficulty: Stupid Easy

  This guy is really easy. You'll get two good allies, plus Ian and Tycho
  and Dogmeat. Just attack Gizmo first, and later Izo. Izo has 50 hit
  points, metal armor, and is unarmed.

- Decker
  ------
  Hit points: 50-95
  Armor     : Vaires; none to leather armor
  Weapon    : Strong pistols/strong melee
  Difficulty: Medium

  This is the last one of the death fights. You'll have Ian, Tycho, Dogmeat,
  and two Hub Police guards, but they don't have many hit points. Decker's
  guards are somewhat tough, and Kane has 95 hit points and somehow seems
  difficult to kill. Also, one has a sledgehammer. You might lose Dogmeat
  in this battle.

- Deathclaw (at Hub)
  ------------------
  Hit points: 225
  Armor     : Strong Skin
  Weapon    : Claw
  Difficulty: Somewhat easy

  Actually, this fight is pretty easy...you can do the job in Metal Armor and
  semi-decent big guns skill, something like 35%. Get Jake's Rocket Launcher
  and pummel that deathclaw down...

  Sniper Rifles and Combat Shotguns in conjunction with Combat Armor work
  well.

  Aim the shots (if you have the sniper) at the Deathclaw's legs or eyes. You
  can cripple his legs, and then it will be quite easy.

- The Lieutenant of the Mutant Armies ((aka Lou)
  ---------------------------------------------
  Hit points: 250
  Armor     : Unknown, equivalent of Brotherhood Armor
  Weapon    : Gatling Laser
  Difficulty: (Him: Easy)
              (His mutant troopers: Difficult)

  This brute is pretty tough, and has two super mutants on his left and right.
  Both have about 80-90 hit points and wield gatling lasers and rocket
  launchers. One great tactic is entering combat mode, running up in front of
  him, and using the .223 Pistol at the eyes. The Lou will attack, and so will
  his guards. Since the guards' weapons have the 'area' effect, they will work
  wonders on the lieutenant. His armor cannot withstand rocket launcher damage
  well. This fight is pretty difficult, but with Power Armor, a strong weapon,
  and several stimpacks, it will be well worth it.

  The .223 Pistol, the Combat Shotgun, and Sniper Rifles are excellent small
  arms choices for this fight. If you have a Plasma Rifle with you, then the
  fight would be even easier.

  It is also a good idea to pick the Rocket Launcher and Minigun from dead
  troopers. Miniguns work wonders on the mutants with minimal clothing.

  Your main worry for this fight is the chance that the enemy will score
  critical hits. Since they wield huge weapons, there is a small chance of
  survival, and it is advisable to save often.

- The Master of the Mutants
  -------------------------
  Hit points: 500
  Armor     : Thick skin
  Weapon    : Twin Gatling Laser cannons with unlimited ammo
              Can spawn mutants at will (they have 50 hit points and good
              weapons)
  Difficulty: (Him: Somewhat Difficult)
              (His mutant troopers: Difficult)

  Two things: Plasma Rifle and Power Armor. Or if you have excellent small
              arms skills, a .223 pistol and a sniper will also work well.

  These two will kill him in an instant, and since he is immobile, you can
  use the columns to your advantage. This is what to do:

       X  (Master)

   O      O  (Columns)
   *         (You)

  Stand behind one of the columns, and when it is your turn, go move out one
  hex, aim for his eyes (with decent skill) or just attack him, and then
  fall back. This trick is guaranteed to work, and you will have a clear
  line of fire for the mutants he spawns.

  This method takes time, but with criticals, he is toast. I scored 119
  points on him once at the eyes. Pretty much, you can devastate the entire
  cathedral with about 300 cells, 35 stimpacks, Power Armor, and of course,
  the Plasma Rifle. If you have an extremely high critical chance (or have
  leveled up enough to get 'sniper'), you can use a gatling laser from the
  dead body of a mutant. Gatling lasers deal a lot of damage with
  criticals...it is entirely possible to kill the master in two hits.

  Again, your main worry is that the master or his mutants might score a
  critical against you.

  NOTE: According to Eric Wills, this guy is what became of Richard Grey.
        Earlier, it was stated that Grey was the Lieutenant of the mutant
        armies.

  NOTE: This is the actual text from Bernardo Barros, as he had more info
        to give:

        "Actually, it's half-true. On the military base, when you access the
         Vats computer, you can search the logs. There are two that are
         useful: Maxon's and Grey's. Maxon's diary was written by Captain
         Maxon, who founded the Brotherhood of Steel (he's related to General
         Maxon). It says all about the true circumstances of the foundation of
         the Brotherhood. Grey's diary was written by Harold's missing friend
         [Harold is the ghoul who lives on the Hub (Old Town) and tells you about
         the deathclaws - he mentions Dr Grey if you ask him about his story, he
         also says how he lost contact with him while raiding a certain "military
         base"]. It says Grey started mutating, he found out about the FEV while
         in there, he started his wicked plan and then looked for another suitable
         base of operations (which happens to be the Cathedral). However those things
         only serve your own curiosity, since nobody cares about it (I tried Harold;
         General Maxton and his assistant; Vree; and the Elder who talks to you)."


  Deathclaws (at Boneyards)
  -------------------------
  Hit points: 225-320
  Armor     : Strong skin
  Weapon    : Claw
  Difficulty: With .223 Pistol: somewhat easy
              With Combat Shotgun: between medium and hard
      
  This fight is pretty difficult if you are stuck with the combat shotgun and
  combat armor. This fight is also relatively easy if you have the .223 pistol
  and power armor. Keep on aiming for the eyes, and you'll guzzle up about 10
  stimpacks in no time. Deathclaws don't deal much damage to you (5 tops)
  with power armor, and with hardened it is almost nil, but you've got to
  watch out for the critical attacks.

  Once I played it and there were three Deathclaws on the ground floor.
  The second time, there were two. This could be due to the difficulty
  setting...

  You also have to know that the deathclaws will respawn (i.e., more will come)
  after about one to two hours if you kill the critters on the ground floor and
  forget about the deathclaw mother and the deathclaw eggs on the basement
  floor. This is a good way to get heaps of experience since one deathclaw is
  worth a thousand experience a pop.

ARMOR, WEAPONS, ITEMS
---------------------
Some notes for this part of the appendix include...

AC: Armor Class (the higher it is, the less likely the enemy will
                 score a successfull hit)
Normal (N), Laser (L), Fire (F), Plasma (P), Concussion (E)

Contents:
- 1.  Ammo
- 2.  Armor
- 3.  Pistols
- 4.  Large Weapons and SMGs
- 5.  Rifles and Shotguns
- 6.  Energy Weapons
- 7.  Unarmed
- 8.  Melee Weapons
- 9.  Throwing Weapons
- 10. Chemicals
- 11. Items
- 12. Useless Items

AMMO
----
JHP - Jacketed Hollow Point
AP - Armor Piercing
FMJ - Full Metal Jacket
12S - 12 Gauge Shell
MFC - Micro Fusion Cell
SEC - Small Energy Cell

The type of ammunition used will change the amount of damage dealt to
the target. JHP is always the superior choice, followed by FMJ. Forget
AP ammo. AP is, in the first place, more expensive, and although it
does penetrate a bit more than JHP ammo, it deals very little damage.
It's useless against anything - JHP is always superior. Shotgun Shells
deal good damage regardless of the target used, and FMJ is like a
'neutral' ammo - it works okay on both armored and non-armored targets.
It doesn't suffer nearly the damage penalty of AP ammo, but it penetrates
far better than JHP.

As for energy weapons, their real effectiveness depends on the type of
weapon used. For instance, laser weapons aren't as effective as plasma
weapons on armored targets. Plasma is good against anything except for
Tesla armor. The Alien Blaster uses a different technology (and from
the death animations seen from Fallout and Fallout 2, I think pulse)
which is goes through any type of armor. The cells themselves don't
serve as damage modifiers, but are merely power units.

ARMOR
-----
Consider combat armor, which has a damage threshold of 8 hit points
and a damage resistance of 60% against laser attacks. (8 hp/60%)

The way armor works is like this: if you are wearing combat armor
and somebody hits you with a laser rifle, you will receive x amount
less. Say that if you're wearing the Vault 13 jumper, which has
no protection whatsoever, and the enemy uses the laser rifle and hits
you for 42 hit points of damage.

Take the same situation with combat armor on. The armor will naturally
deflect 8 hit points of damage because of the damage threshold. Now
only 34 hit points remain. The armor can resist 60% of that damage.
Multiplying 34 by 60% will give you 20.4, and rounding that down
will give you 20. You'll only take 20 hit points of damage with the
armor instead of 42.
