Heavy armor just isn't your thing, so you've learned to customize light armor for maximum benefit. While wearing light armor you gain a +5% Critical Hit Chance and your enemies suffer a -25% Critical Hit Chance.— In-game description

Light Touch is a perk in the Fallout: New Vegas DLC Dead Money.

Gameplay[edit]

Light Touch grants an additive +5% bonus to the player's Critical Chance and a -25% penalty to all enemies' Critical Chance while wearing Light armor.

The perk does not adjust the base Critical Chance value like the Finesse perk, but adds a flat +5 modifier for the player and -25 for enemies, ignoring the weapon's Critical Chance Multiplier. This makes it very powerful when used with high rate of fire weapons, such as the Laser RCW, which typically have a very low Critical Chance Multiplier.
