Hey everyone, I have plans for a new Courier, and have a dilemma. I cannot choose between two builds. both of them take precedence in her history after she finds out her Mother grew up a BoS member, then left for some odd reason.

"Courier": Not very creative I know, but this build is more about her doing things her way, and she refuses to follow her mother's past. I just have no real clue as to what perks or skills to choose. Likely survival will be a tagged skill and maybe either guns or energy rifles (not laser). Not a lot of focus on Crit in this build.

"Brotherhood outcast": This build is about her fully embracing her mother's past, unlike the woman she was born to. She would likely use Heavy energy weapons and power Armor, but unsure of anything else. Laser Commander required. May likely focus on crit for the laser power.

What should I do? Skills and perks are welcome as well as some of the major decisions/factions to be good with, if possible.
