So, I started a brand new character to perform the double perk exploit for a complete game playthrough (core game + the 4 DLC). I managed to get to Lv. 45 using the mantis foreleg glitch, before patching for Old World Blues (you can't access the perks without the patch, unlike Dead Money). For the remaining 5 levels, I'm farming exp from the Giant Radscorpion I have spawn-locked in Goodsprings cemetery. If I get 50 xp from it each time, I believe it will take ~700 spawns to get to Lv. 50 (I'm on PS3, so the glitchy Level cap allows me to hit 50).

Think I can get enough XP before lonesome road starts? Think I'm crazy? Discuss!

Also, if there's a better method (THAT DOESN'T INVOLVE KILLING RINGO, CAUSE I'M A {mostly} GOOD GUY), feel free to share it!

im sure level 50 is overkill. when i hit 25 I feel like I am in god mode.

Ahh...but it's the perks, not the level, that I care about!

The glitch is fun, but it really makes the game a bit too easy. The only places that are a challenge is the DLC's after using the glitch. I am seriously considering Logan's Loop with a standard character, even though the trait is kinda overpowered (though now I will want to use chems on a regular basis).

This does not sound fun. I hear there's also these things called quests. They give xp and are entertaining.

Can't do 'em if I'm doing the double perk glitch.

This, which makes doing the glitch very tedious, though equally rewarding.

Would be less tedious if the devs hadn't patched the mantis foreleg glitch. TT-TT
