So I'm doing various Fallout 2 tutorial videos this week and the one that I'm probably most proud of is this, the throwing guide. So you think that throwing is absolutely useless in the Fallout 2? Watch this and be amazed.

That's a pretty ingenious way to use flares, but I have to say I was a bit disappointed after watching your video. When I saw your thread I thought that I might have overlooked the throwing skill, meaning there was a new way for me to play the game. If anything, it just proved to me that throwing is even more useless than I thought, considering the lengths you have to go to make it effective.

Lenghts? All you need to do is to pick perks accordingly (same as everyone else) & gather enough flares - it's not like every other character gets his weapons for free. That's it.
