This really is pending your playstyle. You could get the Deathclaw Gauntlet Schematic, by forcing an early random encounter. Just keep reloading until you get it. Focus on sneak and unarmed. Once you get the associated perks, with unarmed, the DG becomes the most powerful unarmed weapon in the game. Even surpassing the Shishkebab in melee. Get through the OA DLC, to obtain the Chin Stelth Armor. You're a ghost of death.
EDIT : For SPECIAL, you will get a lot of diff opinions on this. In FO3, I start with 5 in everything, except Intel. run it up to 10. I find the extra points very valuable. As I don't rely on finding books and bobbleheads. Not to say, I don't plan for them somewhat. I stay away from perks that add +5 to this and that skill. They are a waist, as your high Intel will make up for that.
EDIT : Let me think on this some more. You may benefit from taking less, if not lowest in a SPECIAL or two, to get your Luck up to 9 or 10. Hmmm...
