You have unraveled some of the greatest mysteries of pre-War masters: formula for developing special Nuka-Colas! This perk unlocks special Nuka-Cola recipes at the workbench.— In-game description

Nuka Chemist is a perk in Fallout: New Vegas.

Effects[]

Taking this perk unlocks recipes for crafting special Nuka-Cola varieties at a workbench.

Notes[]

  • The three items are finite and quite rare in-game without the perk (even ice-cold Nuka-Cola, which was easily replenished in Fallout 3).
  • This perk fills a similar role to the Quantum Chemist perk from the Fallout 3 add-on Broken Steel. It provides a means for obtaining the rarer varieties of Nuka-Cola. Functionally, Quantum Chemist operated as an automatic script, whereas Nuka Chemist opens up new recipes. The two perks share the same icon.
  • The perk allows for an easier time making nuka-grenades while paired with the Mad Bomber perk, due to the finite amount of Quartz able to be found in-game.
  • The perk gives the ability to make ice-cold Nuka Cola despite the workbench lacking any visible means of refrigeration in addition to the recipe consisting of 3 (presumably warmed-over) Nuka-Colas.
