The Shocker

The Shocker or FSGv118-b model Shocker glove is a unique power fist in Fallout 3.
==Background==
The Shocker is a civilian device, as noted by the Shocker glove holotape.
==Characteristics==
While identical to the standard power fist in term of raw damage against organic foes, the Shocker deals an additional 25 damage to robots. However, it also degrades faster than the standard power fist.
===Durability===
The Shocker can successfully strike about 400 times from full condition before breaking.
==Variants==
* Power fist - The common variant in Fallout 3.
* Fisto! - A more powerful version of the power fist, it deals the most raw damage of any unarmed weapon.
* Sim version power fist - A sim-only version of the power fist which differs only in health (essentially non-degrading).
===Comparison===
==Location==
The Shocker is found (complete with holotaped instructions) inside the flooded metro, west of Arlington Library; however, it is located much closer to the Mason District South entrance than the flooded metro entrance, and entering there avoids the majority of the metro's mirelurk population.
From Mason District South, follow the path till one reaches the metal staircase. Go down the stairs, through the door and follow the tunnel down and to the north. Go into the room on the right (east) with the large open stairs and head down two flights. There are two large doors near the staircase leading to similar-looking tunnels. The incorrect tunnel to the north will lead the Lone Wanderer to a room filled with mirelurk egg clutches. The correct tunnel to the east will be booby-trapped with frag mines. Follow it and head into the room to the west, the glove will be on a barrel near the bed.
==Notes==
* The room containing the Shocker is trapped with a rigged shotgun and tripwire in the doorway.
* The Shocker is described in the holotaped instructions as being an unstable prototype weapon, though none of the possible faults manifest themselves in-game.
* Certain perk choices can make this weapon very damaging when fighting robots. The Robotics Expert perk grants the option to shut them down and the +25% extra damage stacks with the Shocker's +25% damage to robots. The Ninja Perk can also be added to the equation and any time a Sneak Attack is successful, it will grant another +25% damage. The Ninja perk also adds an additional 15% chance for a Critical Hit, which with 10 Luck and all Critical Chance Perks (Finesse and Survival Guru) will make the Shocker perform a Critical Hit 48% of the time when using V.A.T.S.
