How many perks can you get? I have read that perks stop after level 50, but have seen some people say that is not true. Also, if they do not stop at fifty, is there even a level cap? Thanks

You can get as many perks as you can get levels.

Perks don't stop after 50.

After 50, apparently leveling does slow down.

There is a level cap, it's roughly 81.5 allegedly, and stops there because that's when all your skills will be at 100 and cannot level anymore.

So basically you can get 80 perks?
