how many skill points do you guys get each lvl? cos I usually only get 12 to 14 (average intelligence) which isnt really enough to spread out to 5 different skills if you want to be able to pass the different checks (lockpick, speech ect) and have a decent skill in your weapon class

My favorite character type starts with Guns, Survival, and Repair/Lockpick. Later, I will use Tag! to get Speech and then level up unarmed as a backup until I reach my self-cap of 30.

15 or 16, I usually take the perk that gives you 2 more.

For my serious, main Sniper char

1 - Guns
2 - Repair
3 - Sneak
4 - Survival
5 - Whatever

The first 4, I try to get rather high as soon as possible. The rest are more as needed.

I like how Pistolero tiered his list so I'm going to do the same.
1. Guns, Lock pick, repair (essential for my style of play)
2. Survival, Barter, Speech ( Several good perks, recipes, lots of game checks)
3.Melee weapons, explosives, unarmed (usually pick one, good perks, adds variety to combat)
4. Medicine, Science, Sneak ( useful but non essential)
5. Energy weapons (not my thing)

Mostly guns, repair, sneak, unarmed, and explosives. With a high endurance to boot there's not many situations I can't fight my way out of.

I have more of a '3 main'

From best to meh

1. Speech
2. Lockpick
3. Science
4. Barter
5. Repair.

» Mon Aug 29, 2011 1:13 pm

1. Guns, for easy to find and use weaponry
2. Melee, in case I run out of ammo or am missing too much
'3. Speech, as it is an all around badass skill
4. Repair, cuz my guns need love
5. Science, as most doors or safes have a computer attached, and has more speech checks than Lockpick.

3. Survival
4. Guns
