I know not all quest rewards are "phat lewts", but still, this pipe seems totally useless? All it does is let me smoke without requiring a stack of pipeweed, but that doesn't really save me a bag slot since I need to carry the pipe. So all it does is save me from having to get more weed, assuming I want to smoke in the first place. Yay?
I don't know what normal pipes do when you smoke them, but this one, when you finish smoking, you breath out a bird made of smoke and it flies straight away from you, it looks kinda cool actually.
