I'm sure this has been asked to death, but I've never been able to find exactly what I'm looking for. Essentially, I'm going to create an assassin/gun for hire type of guy. He prefers to snipe from afar, but when it comes down to close combat he prefers a precise (not a hammer or other blunt weapon) melee weapon or a decent pistol. He's not Evil, persay, but he's amoral. He doesn't care, his services go to the highest bidder. That'll likely make his karma end up at Evil or Very Evil, but whatever. He's more neutral than anything.
For this type of character, what type of skills should I start with? Perks? Decisions you suggest I would make in the game? SPECIAL? Sorry if this has been asked, I'm just having trouble finding a good build for it. I've never done a Sniper, I always do a Jack of All Trades kinda guy. Just the most useful skills, normally.
