Effectiveness
These perks, mutations, and items change what Mentats does. Toggle them and watch the effects above update — scaled values show in yellow with their base alongside.
Stacking
Chem: taking any other chem replaces these buffs — only one chem's buffs are active at a time.
Taking another item of the same family refreshes these effects instead of stacking them.
