No more XP for sandman kills? Why? :(

Post » Fri Dec 04, 2015 8:57 pm

Bethesda why? it's not that easy to sneak up on a sleeping enemy (assuming you can find 1 of course), and it is a killed enemy after all, i'm not even talking about increased xp like it was in fallout 3 and new vegas, eventho the perk was kinda broken, here you fixed it and made it usless. Come on, at least give us standard kill xp, you made this game to have no level cap so we need xp at all times. The only reason ppl get that perk is for increased sneak damage, sandman itself is usless. Id rather shoot the sleeping enemy with a silenced pistol, same effect no1 wakes up, at least i get xp that way.

Fix this please.

Maybe it's a bug? I mean, there is no situation where killing something should not grant XP. There have been other perk bugs, like Big Leagues 5 being broken. Report it in the bugs megathread and wait on it, or ask around for mods on Nexus or something?

Damn really? I've had my eye on this perk but if your not even getting the standard 8xp then I'll pass.

This time around it gives you buffs to silenced weapon damage. I think te sleeper insta-kill is more of a side benefit than the main show now

It's a good perk for its other benefits but I have found one bad guy sleeping in this whole game in 50+ hours of playing, it'd be nice if the actually slept once in a while

Lots of people already use it for the buff to silenced weapons.
