We're happy to report that Fallout 4 fans can rest easy for now – well, kind of. Fallout 4: Far Harbor, the game's first 'real' expansion, ran very poorly on PlayStation 4 when it released.The. Condensed fog is a junk item in the Fallout 4 add-on Far Harbor. Condensed fog is the liquid form of The Fog that surrounds the Island, condensed from vapor form by the Fog condensers found in various settlements. It can be used to create different sludge based chems. Condensed fog can be broken down into its individual components for use in crafting: It is also a component of several. Fog Remover II works by overriding performance reducing Mist, Steam, Dust, Smoke and Airborne Debris with blank mesh files. New Interior Fog Remover option / standalone mod. (All options are the same in all build types. Same options as Fog Remover 7.0 (Final) ) 4 Build types: ESL, ESP, Ba2, and Loose Files No DLC required. Sometimes the weather gets really dense and foggy, especially in a storm. It's like that in the South West of the map by default, too. On a nice day I can see right across the map, the default draw distance is pretty good. The Fog is a radioactive mass of cloud material that plagues Mount Desert Island and the surrounding islands. Known to drive people mad (as in the case of the barbarous Trappers that can be found on the island), it also brings with it many dangerous creatures such as Gulpers and Anglers.The Fog has been around as long as the townspeople can remember, but it can wax and wane from time to time.
Painted ghoul is a creature in Far Harbor. Found only across The Island, these ghouls consist of the locals that have turned feral due to overexposure to the radioactive fog that plagues the region.
Background
Main article: Feral ghoul
The degeneration into a feral state (referred to as ferocious post-necrotic dystrophy) is not fully understood. It is known that it is a result of a degeneration of the brain (which is not affected by the regenerative mutation of the spinal cord) and emerges following the atrophy of higher brain functions, accompanied by an increased level of aggression and appetite. When the loss of capacity for thought is complete, a ghoul is considered feral.[1][2] The factors that may cause a ghoul to enter this state are unclear, but anti-social or isolated ghouls are more susceptible to it.[3] Exposure to intense radiation may also be a factor – feral ghouls have no body heat and emit lethal levels of radiation, indicating that feral ghouls are for all intents and purposes dead, their functions sustained only by their high irradiation. This allows them to survive for centuries, relying only on the energy provided by radiation – at the expense of a horrifying, emaciated appearance. Understandably, the process is irreversible.[4][5]
Characteristics
These long gone, decaying sacks of flesh run the gamut, from being little more than a nuisance to a hardy and stalwart opponent. Ferals are typically found anywhere that is abandoned, including metro stations, office buildings, factories, and town ruins.
Feral ghouls are encountered in three distinct ways: simply wandering around, camouflaged among the rubble as they sleep, and by occasionally falling out of cracks in the walls and foundations of buildings. Once disturbed however, they growl and scream to alert other ghouls in the vicinity, causing them to attack in packs, viciously rushing and pursuing whomever or whatever disturbs them. The ability to crawl out of the walls allows them to quite easily flank and outmaneuver their targets.
The most important feature is that feral ghouls will reflexively duck and dodge incoming fire while closing distance, making automatic weapons or explosives a preferred method of dealing with them. Furthermore, ferals will not be stopped if they lose a limb or two. If they lose their arms, they just keep on coming to slam their bodies into and bash their skulls against the attacker. The only way to kill them is to deplete their hit points, but they can be immobilized by stripping the legs off.
