Notes

Before update 59 Thick Skin incorrectly stated that it gives 3% instead of 4% at rank 1.

Behind the scenes

A datamine from the July 2024 Public Test Server indicated that this perk had a single rank that cost five points to equip. This was later changed as seen in the Fallout Day Broadcast in October 2024, which showed a version of this perk taking only two points to equip at one of its ranks.
