The alternate build below is for more action-oriented types who just want to get out there and murder baddies without all the faffing around with crafting, settlements and NPC romance, while retaining the core approach of a deadly rogue.

It actually includes one extra point of Agility which is unnecessary for the core perks you'll be using, but my preference is for higher Agility, to increase AP and improve stealth. It has low carrying capacity and health, but is otherwise pretty balanced. This first approach is suitable for a full playthrough where you set up settlement chains and romance NPCs. You'll also be able to increase your SPECIAL points whenever you have a spare perk point, and there's no level cap, so there's plenty of time to get those level ten perks. Expert tip: never set any of your SPECIAL stats to ten right off the bat there's a Bobblehead out there with a bonus point for each SPECIAL stat.You can do without it, but it's a pain - and this is such a flexible, low investment build that you can easily spare the points.Īlthough you can do whatever you like with the rest of the points, I suggest two different S.P.E.C.I.A.L.

This provides the skeleton on which you'll construct your mighty vault dweller. Let's start with the basics: selecting your SPECIAL stats and planning for perks. After spending about 100 hours with it, I've refined and tweaked it to make it even more deadly. Heck, with a few tens of levels under your belt, you'll be turning the difficulty all the way up. You don't even need to be able to shoot straight, which is handy for strict RPG fans.

We're going to be sneaking, using VATS and never, ever, ever getting shot. There are many ways to break Fallout 4, but this is my favourite: the classic glass rogue.
