So i have lvl 45 character on survival, i leveled melee perk to 5th level without paying any attention, then i noticed my damage has gone to unperked level and tooltip on weapons shows unperked damage aswell. Plz fix asap

+1 for this - Had a look at my sheet damage and noticed it is much lower than it was 15 levels ago - had to turn down the difficulty to continue playing.

I dont wanna lower difficulty, mb i should start another char but this bug pissed me off quite a lot lol.

It's bad enough the gap between melee/unarmed vs. ranged is the biggest it's ever been for a Fallout game WITHOUT this bug, (Ranged can avoid the Survival Regen penalty issues due to safe distance, does several times higher DPS due to the new melee attack "speed", and can use all weapons with Power Armor.)

But WITH this bug it's just all kinds of sad.

Melee is powerful. I generally take down camps of Raiders just fine with melee. Plus, due to how fast my sword swings, I can stun-lock super mutants.

Unarmed though is just stupid. You should at least have some sort of weapon, like brass knuckles.

I only play survival.

I never said Melee was not powerful. Just that it is several leagues below ranged compared to any other Fallout. With some ranged weapons that I have ZERO PERKS for, I still kill MUCH faster and take FAR less damage(which is hard to heal on Survival). It's not even close.

From what I've tried so far, unarmed (power fist/deathclaw guanlet) is completely pointless on Survival as there is no stun mods and the weapons are not usable in Power Armor, making this Big League 5/5 bug all the more prominent as that is your only real competitive close combat style. So you're kinda gimped with either one you try at the moment, compared to ranged at least.

Of course, none of this matters much on hard or below. But such a bug should be fixed ASAP.

So both this AND 5/5 unarmed are bugged?

lol.
