Pickpocket is quite useful because you can steal everybody's clothes and turn Diamond City into a nudist camp.
Rafael Santos perv
@@jayg7714 perving on npcs
Rafael Santos Hell yeah!
Rafael Santos Replace ”useful” with ”entertaining”
Leo Pettersson no useful
VANS would be great in the freaking maze of subway tunnels in fallout 3
Preach brother!
Hahaha
I was saving up for ghoulish do not bully me
Agreed
Terrell Littleton Or Kellogg mcfortface
How can pickpocket be called a bad perk when Pants Exploded is the most important stat? :D
Daniel Bresin 8:04 you’re right the grenade might miss but if you put it in the person’s inventory you won’t miss
Daniel Bresin pickpocket is bad because you get no XP for any of it including putting live grenades in enemy pockets which makes it feel unrewarding.
I usually just sneak up on BOS knights and pickpocket the fusion core so they cant use the power armor and i get one in perfect condition
I used pickpocket to constantly jack fusion cores from brotherhood of steel members instead of buying them , I basically wore fully upgraded and modded X01 power armor for everything , I felt like an iron Jesus
Rashon Burnett when you pick pocket you get ITEMS YES?
Oh yeah, naked Hancock. Just what I needed to see after just eating lunch!
Robert Wright 😂😂 8:28
You gotta admit for a Ghoul he's kind of attractive (no homo)
Rafael Diamond facts
I mean...with the right mods, Hancock can look quite 😍
I’m eating right now
The nice thing about pickpocket is that you can steal power armor on rank 4. If you sneak up undetected on an enemy with power armor and steal the fusion core, they will immediately disembark from the armor frame. Kill them and you can use the stolen fusion core to power up the armor and get in it. Really handy perk in general if you want to role-play as someone who goes on missions with nothing but the clothes on their backs and improvises every encounter.
micmic25 now that is a watercooler moment. Stealing power armour.
Troncoso simple, your playing as a magician.
because trying to do it in real life ends real badly.
micmic25 you can do that with level one actually, it's just a stupidly low chance
Stealing the power core only works on enemies that don't start off in their power armor. Boomer at Outpost Zimonja, for example, will never exit his/her power armor. If you manage to remove the power core (either by stealing or by destroying it), it will only cause him/her to move slowly.
Randomly encountered Brotherhood of Steel Knights seem to be the exception to this, although their power armor frame will always count as stolen if you take it.
Live grenades actually instakill, It's a pretty good perk sometimes.
Plus it gets you an achievement.
Jollabang it would be a lot more useful if it gave XP too. But it doesn’t for no apparent reason.
@@rashonburnett6473 same with Mister Sandman ;(
Rashon Burnett probably wouldn’t even give that much xp anyways
Holup lemme try this on a claw of death
If you don't feel like sitting through filler to extend the video to the 10 minutes mark, heres the list to save you a watch.
1. Ghoulish (Endurance 9) - Heal from taking rad.
Criticism: you have to be taking rads & Medic is better
2. Clairvoyance (Intelligence 1) - Shows you the AI route between you and quest marker.
Criticism: Waste of perk, not useful enough
3. Awareness (Perception 4) - Shows DMG resistances in VATS.
Criticism: Most don't take advantage of mob weaknesses.
4. Pickpocket (Perception 1) - Pickpocket chance increase, take equipped items @ higher ranks.
Criticism: Not many NPCs have useful things on them.
5. Lead Belly (Endurance 2) - Decrease rads from food.
Criticism: Cooked food rids rads, Medic is better
you're a god
Cooked food is amazing but being able to eat more items and not worry about rads is pretty cool
Sebastian Solis you get so many stimpaks from dead NPCs I don’t even bother eating food
Thank you
Thank you sir
Pickpocket is an amazing perk, I can get an average of 23 fusion cores every time I visit the Brotherhood of Steel.
I never thought of that so smart
Wait, there are people who don't walk around with a weapon for each ammo type? I never leave the bunker without an upgraded weapon of each type so I can use up all the ammo I gather and deal with any situation.
demomanchaos Survival m8
Makes the need for having weapons of each ammo type MORE important to tackle the various ranges and challenges. I usually make the .38 cal gun my "lowly mook destroyer" due to how crazy abundant but weak they tend to be, .45 for mid-range stuff, .308 for solving problems from 10 houses away, and usually at least one "Fuck-You Cannon" for when I just do NOT feel like bothering with something (usually for the big gits who just need to get dead).
demomanchaos you could use a plasma rifle and swap barrels/ scopes. you can turn it into a Sniper,flamer, full-auto, semi-auto
That defeats the purpose, as you are using the same ammo (an ammo type that is fairly rare to find laying around).
In survival you have very limited carry weight, so it's not really practical to carry loads of weapons. Especially when ammo weighs as well.
Lead belly is actually the first ever perk I took in my very first playthrough........I'll never forgive myself for that.
it's actually pretty decent in survival difficulty though.
You can't just go using radaway in combat on survival, unless it's for sadistic purposes. High chance to get tired and maybe diseases. I guess endless nuka colas and antibiotics nullify that, though. All situational.
ya I also took lead belly as well for my first play through it helped some but not a lot it probably would have been better to take medic
I took Lead Belly for my first Survival character. I'm not saying the 3 points wouldn't have been more useful somewhere else, but there was a convenience factor to not needing to carry alot of food because I could drink any Nuka sodas and eat any wild plants, snack cakes or uncooked meat I came across while exploring...that said, I didn't get Lead Belly for my second Survival character and it hasn't been a serious issue
Same lol. I also accidentally clicked vans and I hadn't saved in a while... RIP one perk point
I take vans because I'm one blind motherfucker who can't see where the hell that the open door right in front of me is.
yes, because the last thing we want is more synths bumping into walls :P
GlobalRyot same, I spent half an hour trying to get to good neighbor and I was so desperate that I searched for a tutorial and what the fuck I just had to head out the corner literally ten meters ahead from where I was.
GlobalRyot I am the exact same
Me, too! Let's team up and mow everyone down by accident.
I get it for the 2 Perception at the second level
pickpocket is useless? You never pickpocket a fusion core from raider power armor user? It gives you the following advantage when you do that.
1. Without the fusion core, you are forcing your enemy to get off the suit and fight you in flesh.
2. Normally the body will stuck in power armor frame, and you don't get to have the frame, but it is a different situation once you get him out of the suit.
3. This is why all the settlers are walking around with power armors in my settlements.
The only downside is that the power armor is considered “owned” and everytime it’s entered is considered stealing, so its only really good for NPCs like the way you’re doing.
@@DarknessViper99 most people il walk with hancock or cait as they are honestly very good NPCs with at least some depth.
so yeah, i dont see downsides here.
You can also get unlimited fusion cores by pick pocketing the fusion cores from brotherhood of steel knights in the ship thing
You can also pickpocket legendary items off of legendary npcs
Jordan Wu If you manage to just shot the fusion core in vats (which is extremely easy) you will force the enemy to get out the power armor anyway, and also generate an explosion to damage nearby foes. It’s much more pratical, don’t require any perk and also don’t require super sneak
If the fouth rank of Ghoulish was "All rad damage reiceived will turn into health. the more radiation resist you have, the more health will be regained." better? or worse?
That sounds OP but max rank of medic is pretty op too so that would be good
Kek Man not for survival
Amir Granderson y?
For power armoured builds, that would be OP as fuck because your radiation resistance is extremely high. It would make areas like the Glowing Sea a total cakewalk, especially with all ranks of Solar Powered.
DarthCruciare87 (Power armor bonus does not increase the effective rate of health gained :-( )
I never used stimpaks in survival mode, you need to drink so much and it's so easy to have purified water in settlements that bottled water became my stimpaks instead.
yea, water is so awesome, good healing, radiation free and amazing currency when you have too much, investing skills and resources to make a lot of water in settlements actualy pays off
@@arekkrol9758 .38 bullets also make good currency.
I just use both pop a stim, pop a water
Too much weight. Some food heals really well even in early game. Never forget the refreshing beverage!
@@torgranael Gold junk is also very good too. I noticed water, bullets and gold are the best currencies
Regarding the Pickpocket perk rank 2: You need it for an achievement
People still care about achievements?
Tyler Jaynes Was there a time when they didn't? Just because you don't, it doesn't mean no one cares about them
Enro SK I care, I always try and go for platinums on PS4, plus it is freakin hilarious
Psychotic prankster achievement? In the earlier fo games, you didn't need any perks. Just sufficient stealth and an explosive
is it for putting a grenade in someones pocket?
I like Lead Belly. My current build does not cook wasteland meat so pre-war food is all she eats. And LOTS of Nuka-Cola.
MCPunk55 yea
MCPunk55 cooked foods have better stats though.
Should have mixed those Nuka-Colas into Dirty Wastelanders. No seriously, with Party Boy/Girl rank 2, that shit provides +6 Strength and +2 Charisma with no addiction chance, fulfilling those dreams of drunken brawling.
@shitkicker4000 LOLz same reason people do it in rpgs - why not? is it weird when a girl makes a male character?
@shitkicker4000 LOLz IKR but there is the black widow
The sheer fun of putting a grenade in someone's pockets in the middle of a group though... remains priceless entertainment to me.
You Sadist >:(
Me too XD
I like doing this with guys in power armour. The animation is screwed up
Having awareness is also good to be able to tell if your enemy has a lower level than yours so to be able to use intimidation and Animal freind, wasteland whisperer.
It almost makes it seem that NONE of the perks are actually useless! just that some perks are more for certain builds/playstyles. Which is great!
Except leadbelly.... :P
Dan McLeod except for Vans. It always sucks
JoeMcBob yup it's supposed to be like clairvoyance or some shit.
Awareness also tells you who the synths are.
I find it weird that Ghoulish not only made it in the game, but was thought to be a better option than a perk that made sense for Endurance builds, like something that allows you to sprint longer with additional upside at higher ranks.
i think the perk would be better if at Rank 3 it made ALL ghouls become friendly to you and Rank 4 let you command some like a necromancer or something
Aquaboy is IMO one of the best convenience perks in the game and certainly an underestimated perk. It's much better to just sacrifice a single perk point than it is to equip and unequip the hazmat suit and eat mirelurk cakes every time you cross a body of water. It also makes it possible to dive indefinitely since you can't run out of oxygen. This is especially awesome for power armors since falling into the water with a PA can result in either dying or losing the power armor.
LOL I remember loosing power armor like that... good times. Left it there.....
Its first perk is good. Second one is terrible but you don't need to get it.
Yeah, beats having to also have the rebreather like in New Vegas.
Yea but there are far better options imo. Traversing bodies of water was never a big deal in my experience.
Watching this while taking a shit
FlareBear Same bro
FlareBear hey me too
Yup
FlareBear same
Lmao
Lead belly is a survival mode perk. Sometimes you’re on an adventure and you run out of food. Also stimpacks make you thirsty. So it’s easy to run out of water especially with reduced carry weight.
Exactly
I rarely ever pickpocket. Mostly because of my anxiety and feeling like I’m gonna mess up :/
Dude same. I never made a sneak build or anything because I get anxious, but when I see a death claw, I’ll come at it with anything I got lol
You could always quick save before an attempt, less stress
:( Sorry to hear that
I think that the ghoulish perk could be remade. health gained from rads should subtract from the amount of rads gained, and that should be BEFORE rad resistance is applied.
Rank 1: 10% rads is converted to health (before rad resistance is applied) +5 rad resistance. 1% chance for feral ghouls to be non-hostile to you. (but they won't fight other creatures for you)
Rank 2: +15% rads converted to health (25% total) +10 rad resistance (15 total) +4% chance for feral ghouls to be friendly (5% total), and they will fight non-ghouls for you
Rank 3: +25% rads converted to health (50% total) +10 rad resistance (25 total) +5% chance for feral ghouls to be friendly (10% total), they will fight other ghouls for you, and they glow amber so you know they're friendly.
Rank 4: there is no rank 4, as they could have just buffed the previous ranks.
He spends the ENTIRE time whining about rad damage, only to, in the next breath, mention how rad away is everywhere.
Healing and curing rads is trivial... and I think the perk isn't good, but that doesn't make his argument for it any less nonsensical.
@@iami3rian394 I don't know man not having to worry about rads at all with all four ranks of Ghoulish in the Glowing Sea is pretty nice. Add Lifegiver and/or Solar Powered and you have a character that has a hard time dying especially since for some reason my Endurance is in the 40s. Must be all the Mirelurk Queen Steak I keep eating:D
@@veteran0121 there are definitely easier ways.
I will say this, it's definitely not the most useless perk... I just find it hilarious how contradictory he is in less than a minute.
Rad damage is annoying, it's true, but again, it's trivial to fix. Hell, it's cheap to get a doctor to fix, nevermind all the rad away you find.
"You can still use radaway in survival" Have you ever PLAYED survival? I'm guessing no.
Don’t overplay the negative effects of radaways, it’s not hard to deal with at all.
@@barackobama129 it's not hard but annoying. and it can be hard to deal in far harbor. better to just invest perk or go to doctor than using radaway in survival mode.
I LOVE life giver, it is so useful, when you fast travel you almost always spawn with max health, plus it is great for tank builds
Life giver saves so much carry weight at high levels, for survival builds. In between battles, heal up. It can take a buffet to heal up after a fight.
Do people really stick with one weapon mostly? I generally keep 7 or 8 on me for different situations like sniping or taking out a lot stronger enemy.
I usually had one weapon per category, like one revolver, one pistol, one automatic rifle, one sniper, and one smg. Maybe an energy weapon or lever action if I had the right perks
I generally play with a low strength/endurance character on survival but I like to keep at least 3 weapons available on myself, and 2 backups on my companion
you can't carry that much with the necessary ammo on survival mode. and if your not playing survival mode what's the point of playing the game at all really?
James Dobson Exactly not to have annoying ammo weight. Realism? Sure if the game was realistic to begin with maybe it would matter.
Not everyone wants every game to have hardcore survival aspects like ammo weight which is main reason I don't really play survival.
Harder enemies can be dealt with and hunger I like but you can just use mods to get similar survival aspects.
Damn son where'd you find this. the game is already too casualized, survival is the only way to make the game worth playing. its already the worst fallout it might as well have a couple extra systems and be some kind of a challenge
Man, I love aqua boy. It makes traveling so much easier if I can just swim across rivers.
Same
The problem with pickpocket in fallout which isn't present in Skyrim is that if you fail in fallout you die cause friendlies will all start shooting you and in survival that shit 1 hits you. Which leads you to save scumming and it just ruins it. In Skyrim guards would find you and you would get punished for a little while which was fine
even on Skyrim I would save like hell before pickpocketing. Like, I'd save when I saw the target and then I would save again once I was an inch away from them. Haha I'm nuts
i quite like rank 1 awareness, it saved me in the moment i had to see who was the human and who was the synth, humans don't have natural energy resistance
Synths don't have natural energy resistance, it was a myth that had been debunked for awhile now.
huh... well that one synth did... f*ck me i could have shot an innocent guy
@@m.oudekerk63 if youre talking about the Art encounter, the one with the gun (AFAIK) is always the human
@@jacklocklear8546 I always figured the one with the most damage resistance was the synth. I came across the two Arts and the winner aggroed to me, and it took like 8 shotgun blasts to kill him. Surprise, that was the synth.
I remember my first play through when I took awareness. "Ah. I see this raider has 200 Ballistic resistance and 230 Energy resistance. I don't know how much damage my laser musket does, I'll just switch real quick and see which takes off more his health bar."
Ghouls not the most menising?
Try survival mode
Are you also scared of aggressive hamsters too?
You point? Something like a deathclaw or a radscorpion is still more dangerous like in any other mode.
Fersl ghouls trigger me in evrey way. The way the attack. The way they move. The way they run. The way they scream. The way they look. The way that they just spswn behind you. I just want to kill evrey single one of them.
Fudge muppets's logic: any perk that are targeted for first time players are useless and no one including first time players should use at all.
All of these perks were useless even for rookies
Kek Man the perk that allows u to see the stats of enemies are good. U would know whay to use.
A.O.T.L Tng I think that it might be useful on one character to learn the weaknesses of enemies, but then apply that knowledge to your other characters so you don't have to use it again.
As long as you have the damage increase perks (big leagues, commando etc.) it doesn't really matter
Kek Man why not?
leadbelly was really good in survival, rad away just gave me fatigue and insomnia.
Did I just hear "Take a step forward in improving your depression" in a ad?
Regarding Ghoulish, I take it you don't play permadeath runs in Survival. Ever walked back and forth through the Glowing Sea four times? Maybe with a glitched Preston Garvey hunting you with a minigun?
VANS is fantastically bad, unless you decide to beat the game on Survival with no HUD and no PipBoy. That will make you deeply thankful for a perk that leads you around (even if it is as reliable as the pathing of NPCs).
Awareness was useful for the discoveries made in the early days of FO4, like how creatures that are radiation immune are dealt more damage by pure radiation than creatures that are rad resistant. It also taught us important things like how Explosive and Bleeding damage works. Regarding rank 2, minmaxxing anyone?
I agree with pickpocket, unless you want to wear the Feathered Dress and don't want to kill Irma. The major problem was that planting grenades used to kill no matter what, now it does grenade damage.
Lead belly, again, pretty bad, but sometimes you play a character in Survival who only uses food and drink, never meds or chems. It really just depends on the challenges you're setting for yourself.
I assume he meant a normal playthrough
plenty of food to cook and plenty of empty bottles to fill with purified water
Why would you take those things off just to follow a yellow brick road. Unless you like real time healing out of pipboy
I think the main thing that made Lead Belly such a shit perk is that cooked food removes all of the raw food's Rads. Radiation from food/drink in this regard is a laughably tiny threat since Purified water is piss easy to come by.
Thank you for making this comment so I don't have to.
Only other points are that pickpocket's probably good if you're non-lethal, but in F4 who is?
And lead belly is great for topping up health for free, especially in survival and whatnot.
A brotherhood soldier can’t really kill maxson to get that glamorous, luxurious, coat of his
I understand v.a.n.s. being on the list, but I still like to take it because I'm always wasted or stoned when I play and always forget where I'm suppose to be going. It's pretty useful in my case.
sounds like a perfect life you have there
Sounds pretty ghetto. drugs are bad for you ya know...
With enough chems you can turn up for days!
NuclearNuke41
That’s such a mom thing to say.
Ain't nothing wrong with a bit of green.
"This is basically the equivalent of the clairvoyance spell from skyrim, and with both games running on the same game engine, it probably IS the clairvoyance spell from skyrim" that hit me like a ton of nuka cola
I found the Pickpocket Perk Useful for getting my Mixtape out in the Wasteland
Thanks to pickpocket, I got a power armor. I don't think you can take the base suit from enemies you kill, just the armor, but if you pickpocket the fusion core, they'll get out and you can steal it.
Luis Verdin. Well.. You can always shoot the fusion core and if it breaks it'll come out like a bomb and blow up. On higher level they will almost always survive the explosion then.. BOOM you now have a free suit of armour.
How many power armors do you need anyway LOL they give you one to start and they are littered throughout. Love the Far Harbor and Nuka Armor
I never played in power armor much anyway
Dude ghoulish is awesome in Far Harbor and in the Glowing Sea.
@Justin Lynch When you get to the glowing sea you’re most likely walking in power armor though.
@@stevensanchez1192 I'd rather use 20 Rad Away then Power Armor, or a Hazmat Suit. Power Armor is the absolute last then I'd ever use as I really don't like it.
@Justin Lynch I don’t see what’s so bad about power armor but you do you.
@@stevensanchez1192 I dunno I just don't enjoy it. I don't like the HUB, you always gotta find repair stations to fix damage, you always gotta have fusion cores (though not really a issue as I have a ton of them anyway)
It's just so much more hassle then simply taking a Stimpak or Rad Away.
That's mainly why I don't like using them.
@Justin Lynch I admit it’s kind of an annoyance to repair but I like the perks it gives. Also I love Iron-man so yeah XD
VANS does have applications. It saves a bit of time navigating in huge multi-level buildings which might get quite confusing. In particular the attraction in Nuka-World where you get the Nuka-Girl costume. It's not a great perk by any means but not that bad either. Just a cheap situational QoL tool.
There's a nuka girl costume!?
Gamerdept yup.
I’d say just based on the fact it’s that niche and forgettable means it is bad. In fact I feel like most people didn’t have this issue, I certainly didn’t.
Awareness is actually useful to identify synths in your settlements. They'll have a higher level and resistance than the other settlers.
Bablo Oh, I never thought of that! Nice tip!
also carrying two rifles, one energy and one not is not that hard too, sometimes it helps to save on ammo (far harbor, one enemy got almost no energy resistance but can eat 40 mininukes in the face with amost no scratch)
That's just not true.
the resistances are not true. but i'm not sure about the level
I find lead belly really helpful for the early levels survival mode. Maybe not essential but it can really help. I would have put cannibalism in it's place. It was a useful roleplaying perk in FnV but in F4 is just garbage, and actually works against you!
Cannibal, if you're utilizing Strong or Codsworth, is pretty good for conserving on healing items. I once made a cannibal character who would clear one room, eat everyone to regain my hp, then proceed with little to no need for healing items aside from some end-dungeon fights.
Arguably speaking, with Codsworth providing Purified Water daily, the Cannibal perk can allow for a Survival playthrough to literally feed itself thanks to the extreme abundance of raiders AND several raider locations oftentimes having a pile or 2 of dead settler bodies to eat as emergency food sources.
joshua kim or just use a stimpack which are surprisingly abundant.
Second level of V.A.T.S gives +2 perception. "That means your perception can go from 10 to 12." The math lesson is real.
the good thing about lead belly is that in survival you can eat pre-war food and remove your food needs without using "important" food or those that may give lots of health and loose those hp only because of your hungry
It saved my life in my first survival profile.
ain't it funny how lead belly makes nuka cola victory litteraly do nothing and if you have ghoulish it cancels all rad food based healing out.
Lead Belly is actually super useful in Survival where you're constantly eating food and have to use Stimpaks and RadAways very sparingly.
BULLSHIT the game practically throws radaways and stimpacks at you. And since survival mode lets you fill up bottles with purified water you don’t need to take radiation damage from that. As for food, you can cook it to remove radiation damage, not to mention that’s how you should always eat meat, since it increases benefits. Waste of a perk point.
Also, you can still get diseases from drinking radiated water, which are even worse than rad damage. So you are trading a relatively minor nuisance of radiation with the more serious nuisance of disease. There is literally no net positive to taking this perk in Survival mode. Not to mention, vanilla Survival mode is so broken, I just use mods to make it suck less, like being able to save any time instead of requiring rest. If Bethesda games weren't so unstable, they'd crash if you farted a bit too hard, then Survival would be fun. But losing potentially hours of progress because the game crashed in between loading screens is absolutely rage inducing. I don't get how Bethesda managed to fuck up Survival mode so bad, when New Vegas and even modded Fallout 3 did it better. Yes, I know it was Obsidian who made it, but still. They could have just copy/pasted Survival mode from New Vegas and it would have been golden. But no, Bethesda managed to take something that was fun and worked perfectly fine, and turn into something broken AND not fun.
When i first saw the Vans perkMy first thought was "oh look, it's like that one skyrim spell i never use because it's so bad
I actually think awareness works well with the intimidation perks quite well
Awareness is my fav perk in Fallout 4.. I want to know more about the enemies I'm fighting against. especially in survival! Run as fast as you can when seeing multiple high level enemies!
Ironically, it was through FudgeMuppet that I thought to get the Perk. My RP idea was to have a dude who was the best in situational awareness. Seeing the Dam. Resistance levels and HP fits that bill exactly.
Vans better be on here
Pancake Dog 1313 vans is good for newbies I feel
Eatveg ducky 4 was my first Fallout game and I had no problem finding my quests.
I only use vans on indoor missions, because building can be a maze sometimes
Yeah indoor is good and also there’s the plus 2 perception at lvl 2. Ik it isn’t game changer but eh lol
I get lost in buildings sometimes. I’m not even a noob. I just get lost
Pickpocket- steal ammo from enemy's or people you plan to kill, that way their left to unarmed or left overs, really helpful for squishy low level runs trying to kill fast, like me.
*does a ghoulish and solar-powered build in his first playthrough*
Me (watches this and ghoulish is the first one): oh man...
I love awareness it gives me an idea of how hard my fight is gonna be
I thought ghoulish would make me immune to rads and I maxed it then I realized it didnt
So... when are Pokemon builds coming?
If you have something like metro 2283 so water can freeze and you rarely visit your settlements then lead belly can be very useful.
Pickpocketer would’ve been amazing in fallout 3 or Vegas honestly
I actually like vans because sometimes I get lost on a quest and id use it find it
I find it funny how many times you said "roleplay" in a Fallout 4 video
Unless you want to play a father who is an ex-veteran or a mother who is a lawyer (which also magically knows how to handle power armor), I'd say you're s.o.l
@From_Pengu I wake up everyday thinking “It would’ve made more sense if she manufactured power armor”
I actually really like Awareness, it's really handy, especially with most people's first characters that basically have one of each class of weapon, at least, and it can be really good to know what you're up against, say in Far Harbor, there's that variant of the Fog Crawler with 4000 ballistic damage, it's probably good to know that from a distance so you can not go in that direction
I remember when i found out that grenades couldn't be placed in someone's inventory without a perk during my first playthrough, I was so frustrated. I had figured it was just a thing you could do like 3 and new vegas, and spent a fair amount of time trying to figure out why i couldn't reverse pickpocket grenades into enemy inventories. It's not truly a "perk" purely because reverse pickpocketing like that is incredibly situational. Never ended up taking the perk, even though i tend towards sneaky character purely out of spite. glad to hear its not that great a perk even at higher levels.
In my first Fallout 4 build I got VANS thinking it would be amazing... worst mistake I ever made
LOL I remember looking at it and thinking someone at Bethesda must either be high or trolling the hell out of us. :)
Rowan Mayer when my dad got Fallout 4 he decided to get VANS and I cringed so hard at his stupid decision, worst part is that he doesn't regret his choice. For me it just makes the game look uglier.
i never was thinking it would be good, we got map and compass with waypoints, its far better than stuff what we had many years ago in older games where having map was godsend
I’m somebody who spaces out and gets lost in my mind extremely easily. Vans actually helped me stay on track sometimes, though it’s not like I always follow the damn trail.
@@amirpalamar7133 Seems he got the last laugh, if he's enjoying his choice! Haha.
What Levels are your respective characters at?
Thanks, I’ll make sure I’ll use them
I'd like to note that the grenade-in-pocket bit also gets you an achievement, in addition to being fun. If you get away with it, you can also kill a specific person of a faction without the rest of the faction being alerted - it seems to be more reliable than shooting/stabbing them in stealth as far as not alerting people.
Me watching him talk about how bad pickpocket is after watching the theif build where he talks about how great it is. :/
they're pretty clear about it being bad in terms of utility & good in terms of fun... 's not really any contradiction.
awarness is great it is easy to see the weakness and the lv casue the enemy could be 2 lvls above you and some are 40lvls above
Pickpocket is needed for a trophy (like local leader), I go through whole playthroughs of Bethesda games without stealing anything unless it's quest related, so I agree it's not great, but would be more annoying to not get the Platinum because you didn't plant a grenade whilst pickpocketing.
CAMZAB exactly why I got pickpocket level one on one build only. I have a playthrough for each faction in order to get all the Trophy's
I actually use VANS a lot because I can't focus on where I'm going and I usually spend 90% of the mission getting lost after I kill the boss
Great video as usual FM! I have a request for you! Please do a video on the. Best and worst perks for Fallout Frost mod!
Vans isn't just "like" the path an AI would use, it IS the path the AI would use, it's the navmesh for them, lol.
Will you make more builds for Fallout in the future?
That's like asking if the sky will be blue, of course it will happen
Nate Witecki yeah just not for a while but it will happen
They said they have stopped
How can you make a build in fallout 4? There are no really unique perks, weapons and amour and being in power armour is significantly better than not being in power armor. Also there is no level cap so eventually you'll have every perk
Wasteland survival guide is a great thing to get, because if you get one that heals 50 percent more for food, and one that heals 50 percent more in irradiated foods, it heals 2 times as much
In fallout I usually have a number of weapons ranging from 4 to 9
It's Australia Day how did u spend your Australia Day fudge muppet
I’m sure he’s working on his response buddy, hang in there
You never played survival then. Pickpocket is actually very useful for one thing stealing fusion cores out of power armor. It kicks the AI out of the power armor so you can have it. So research more before you talk
rRONNIE. Technically you can shoot the fusion core but that means you won't get the fusion core but you'll get the armour!
wow big deal
Ghoulish is very helpful for survival where stims dehydrate and your constantly doing things like eating food that gives you rads
I have aqua boy 1 so I can safely take shortcuts across water, pickpocket, so I can just mess with diamond City residents and my enimies, and awareness 1 so I can check enemy levels, knowing which to pick off first :)
Fallout 4 was so shitty by taking away skills so then you are forced to take "perks" to do more damage or better at a thing instead of a unique thing that makes the game more interesting.
i didnt liked that change too, a lot of usefull perks but you need that damage too...
Seriously dissapointed at the perks in Fallout 4 Ecspecially how the 10 Strength perk requires power armor to use which makes no sense. :/
Is does make a bit of sense though doesn't it? It even follows on logic from previous games. I don't use it, but it does make sense.
EvilPeppermintHelix Seems like any other Fallout to me. Some are decent, some are great, some suck.
I found myself really liking to build thinfs in FO4 compared to the other games, especially with the Robot Workbench.
It does suck. The characters who use Power Armor are those for whom the boost to 10 Strength is an asset.
A weak character focused on Charisma or Intelligence? Great! It adds durability and carry capacity and they either have the NucPhys perk to make cores last or the ability to afford as many as they need.
Most Melee/Unarmed builds are weakened by Power Armor. Most will have Strengths at least into the mid teens, making the Power Armor weaken you, reducing your damage potential significantly.
Now, if you have ST10, drop it to 9 with Day Tripper, read the SPECIAL book into ST, then get the Bobble (for a natural base of 12), Power Armor will not reduce THAT. You will still have ST of 12. You can take that up to 15 with paint and armor mods. 17 in the day, as Solar Powered still works. Chems and booze still work as well.
You can only get +3 from your Power Armor. That same character can easily get +3 from legendary armors with the Fortifying ability that you can purchase and Army Fatigues/Baseball Uniform. That goes to +6 if you are in full Fortifying armor.
So, I guess the real upside is that you don't need Pain Train to have an effective Power Armor character - and, indeed, the character that benefits most (melee using Power Armor), likely has a base Strength higher than 10 anyways to maximize Strength while in the armor.
power armour will lower your strength to 11 as its capped
I use a mod to boost my strength to 20 when I get in power armour it drops to 11
I tend to avoid power armour now I have mods
Would it make sense if you didn't need power armor for that perk?
"I got Big Leauges with a Combat Rifle
Im dealing so much damage"
-Mom
-my first play through, not knowing how rpg’s work
I actually had to use the Vans perk when I did the quest to help the old ghoul lady from Goodneighbor dig into Diamond City. I got lost in that metro area so when I leveled up down there I grabbed it to help me navigate it all.
Can you guys explain how Cait would have an accent?
PatrickPaul1203 After the apocalypse there was an Irish family that survived and managed to pass down their accent bc the children heard their parents use it often so they also used it.
Intercontinental travel? It seems to be a thing in Fallout, but it's never explained in detail beyond some characters seemingly having come from other places in the world.
Not Ian she isn't Scottish, I would know because I'm Scottish
Not Ian accent don't travel through Dna
Not Ian Kek
the worst perk is obviously the dmg increasing perks because... they are?
what?
Overpowered, for starters
Zen Jamm Doesn't seem to be the case IMO in late game.
Well, you are not a complete tard, because it is true, all the dmg increasing perks are junk EXCEPT for the one you are using in that play through.
Pistol, Rifle, Full Auto, Fists, Melee, or Heavy - at least four of those (representing 20 of the perks on the chart) will be junk.
The damage increasing perks are the only ones you really need. Late game, they are essential. Early game, they are essential. Mid game, they are essential.
That fucking "Devour" commercial blasted through my speakers. "oooohhhhh ohh ughhh oh my god ohhhh" fucking stupid ass food anyways filled with sodium. Thanks for waking everyone up thinking I was watching porn.
I have put 1000 hours into fallout 4 and didnt even know VANS was a thing
fallout 4 is my most favourite game of all time!
noob gaming fallout new Vegas is better thou
KILLER yeah but i never got to play it myself and the graphics sorta put me off
I don't mind fallout 4 but this is asking for trouble from all the obsidian fanboys
noob gaming Your comment has severely triggered me, and I am going to be in the hospital for a few years.
Kek Man I only liked the NCR ranger armor also riot version
4th is useless? i dont have fallout 4 but in skyrim i get lost so much ok it might olny be handy in skyrim but the perks do the same thing
In fallout you can usually walk in a straight line and get to your destination no problem, Skyrim not so much
Lil_ blu I don't mean to be rude but HOW can you get lost? Especially often.
That map is not hard to learn and 90% of the times in dungeons you just need to move straight forward with few puzzles...
I have played skyrim around 800 hours and I have only found it useful twice because of map marker being glitched and it was too dark to see very well because of the sun irl.
Lil_ blu/ Maybe talk about shit your knowledgeable in?
Well if you don't want to end up getting a million side quests along the way before walking to a destination it might be useful
How the fuck do you get lost in Skyrim.
I can agree with this list, many of the skills are things you should be able to learn or overcome with other perks
Awareness is good not only to get a feeling of the enemy resistances, but also their level. Level spawns change as you level up and as you move around the map. Without awareness you can realistically only learn how enemy levels relate to yours by doing multiple playthroughs or by sitting down in your school bench and study the wiki. Its only one perk point and it has quite low special requirement.
I’m getting the grenade perk 😂
It's a must (well, Rank 2) if you want to snag that Achievement / Trophy "Prankster's Return."
Alright, I'm a year late... Have you gotten that particular award?
Lead belly is the best perk for survival
Memefessor Nah I don't find any use out of it personally, it's easy enough to keep a constant supply of cooked meat and purified water.
Although I agree with you on survival I am second guessing the point spent.
I found pickpocketing really useful, mainly on the Brotherhood airship, I got an insane amount of power cells for power armour as well as ammo for powerful weapons
remember he is the same guy that called ward in skyrim useless, just saying
THANK GOD ITS FALLOUT CONTENT AND NOT SKYRIM!!!!
FmS yea
FmS yep
FmS never played fallout but they are both great games.
There both great but skyrims better
-Julian- 16 fallout 4 is good not great. Skyrim is masterpiece not great
Ghoulish is worth every point for that last perk. Passive health regeneration along with rads being diminished is very useful for people who carry very few heals or are just frugal with stimpaks and radaways
sooooooo glad to see people playing this game!
Disagree on the lead belly. Survival mode would have been a complete pain in the ass without the ability to drink water to heal and quench thirst. Water has weight and stimpacks are much better at healing you when you don't have access to anything else. They should be as last resort. So with lead belly, whenever you're low on health or in combat around water, or thirsty, the most logical thing is to drink the water. The only problem is that it will probably give you an illness, but that can be taken care of with antibiotics and doctors.
Alex Malinky but doctors remove rads too
