Concentrated Fire

***As of PTS August 2025***

SPECIAL:

Perception

New Perk Card Description:

• This perk no longer grants limb targeting.

• Limb targeting in V.A.T.S. now activates automatically when your Perception reaches 5 or higher.

• Concentrated Fire builds up a bonus each time you target the same limb in V.A.T.S., stacking up to a maximum of 20 times.

• You do not need to hit the target — simply aiming at the same limb is enough to build the bonus.

• There is no HUD indicator showing how many stacks you have.

• The bonus resets if you exit V.A.T.S. or switch to a different limb.

Classified as non-automatic weapons, Crossbows, Compound Bows, and Recurve Bows all benefit from this perk card.
