How to Use This Calculator
Step 1: Understand the Perk
The Barbarian perk card provides Damage Resistance (DR) based on your Strength (STR). If you are not wearing armor, the DR value is doubled. The benefit follows a diminishing returns curve, with a soft cap at STR 60. Beyond this point, additional STR yields reduced DR increases.
Step 2: Review the Graphs
There are two graphs:
With Armor: Displays the DR increase as STR increases, showing steady growth up to STR 60, with reduced gains beyond.
Without Armor: Displays the DR curve with doubled values for unarmored builds, following the same diminishing returns pattern.
Step 3: Explore the Table
The table provides:
Rounded and exact DR values for each STR point from 1 to 100.
Separate columns for DR with and without armor.
The soft cap (STR 60) is highlighted, marking where gains in DR per point significantly diminish.
Hey there, I'm Kat, also known as Duchess!
I'm an Aussie data miner who creates guides for farming, events, and food buffs in Fallout 76.
I firmly believe that knowledge should be accessible to everyone, so my guides will always be free. However, maintaining a website and using photo and video editing software can be costly.
If you find my guides useful, here are a few ways you can support me:
- Share My Guides: Help your fellow vault dwellers by sharing my guides.
- Follow Me on Social Media: Keep up with my latest updates by following me on social media.
- One-Time Donation: Buy me a coffee.
- Monthly Contribution: Become a regular supporter by subscribing to my Ko-fi page.
Every bit of support helps cover the costs of creating these guides and maybe even gets me a cup of coffee or three ;)
Thanks for your support!
