Focus on Agility Charisma and Perception. Focus mainly on skills like Speech, Sneak, Barter, Survival, Medicine, might want to take a weapon skill such as melee guns or unarmed just in case, some people are not willing to reason with you. Dont go for heavy armor or medium, stick to light armors and clothes rather so that you can role play the passiveness in that you have no need for bullet shielding as you are not going to fight. Hope this helps.

Strength 3 unless you intend to carry a lot of gear. Perception yeah 7 is good you want to be able to see the bad guys coming if you dont want to fight. Endurance maybe 5-7 for health reasons. Charisma make it high maybe a 6 or 7, Intelligence maybe a 6 or 7 for the sake of skill points mostly and to appear intelligent or diplomatic, Agility should be higher than 5 for stealth reasons and you want to outrun most baddies. Luck at least 5 or 6 mostly for gambling as criticals wont matter to a person who is trying to avoid a fight.

Traits could be the Wild Wasteland for the wacky events unless you want the seriousness in which scrap it. But the glasses trait agility trait and the diplomatic trait are on your table now. Perks anything that is for others and not you. I.e Survival Perks, Scientific Perks, and such like Travel Light, Long Haul, Pack Rat, Strong Back, Silent Running, Light Steps, Living Anatomy, and such. Simply put all perks that dont directly involve combat.

I did S5, P6, E4, C6, I7, A6, L6, I took Early bird, cause my character sleeps when I rp, so he's usually in bed from 8pm-6am, so after that I have s7, e6, c8, p8, i9, a8, l8 I always have glasses on to match my suit, so I have a P of 9, plus implant, and the other trait is Diplomatic.

I've never completed the game, as I don't like ending my playthroughs, so i'll go independant, without talking to YES MAN, he's not really independant. I'm role playing, so in the role play, if I can't talk House down, he dies.

I would suggest allying with the Caesar's Legion because there is a repeatable quest called "Caesar's Will" that gives you access to the loot they get on raiding missions. Along with ammo, Denarius, and armor, you also get tons of Stealth Boys. One time when I did my rounds on the loot, I got 70 Stealth Boys!
