Sniper/Hunter/Survivalist Build

Post » Mon Sep 06, 2010 3:07 pm

I want a character build centered around a sort of Sniper/Hunter/Survivalist.
Morally gray, and only look out for himself.
Not really any stealth, except for maybe the occasional ninja snipe.
Primarily Snipers, rifles, knives, and mines/traps (rarely) and goes for the 1 shot. So needing crit bonus, ect
Could anyone kind of throw out a general SPECIAL/Skill/Trait set up? Thanx!
Oh, and if theres anything item wise that you think would add to the theme, throw it out there.

I'm pretty sure you need the Gobi Sniper and/or Anti-Materiel Rifle. That's about all I can say. I believe you'll want a minimum Perception of 6, as I THINK that is the min for the Sniper Perk.

Hehe, i like your speech there sir i also auctully use that kind of build so i just give tactics of mine?

Here it goes.. i often go for high Intellect like 9 then 1 at Strengt (just for better Firepower) then i get good nature/Wild Creatures just for the hunt,
also u get 5+ in some stats and some minus.

For the gear i'll get the beret u get for boone joining you, the plus u get for the Head is crit by 5 and 1 PER so goes for rest of the gear
i do like guns and explosives,Crit, then ill have other gear parts like sixy naghtwear etc for using while lvling to get all speak challenges.

But also i like to go Bezerk and blow up cities with Fat Man and some nukes :foodndrink:

I play a sniper character and I have learnt to just avoid deathclaws altogether. Oh and have a follower with you.

Meh.

STR 5
PER 5
END 7
CHA 1
INT 8
AGI 6
LCK 8

(implant everythinge except regen and CHA)

Traits: Good Natured, Trigger Discipline
Tag: Guns, Repair, Survival (but level Lockpick first and don't neglect Sneak too much, you want 50 for a sniper), traps (explosives) and knives (melee) I'd leave for later when compulsories like Lockpick, Guns, Science and Speech are trained to at least half-decent levels. From perks you want to avoid everything VATS based like accuracy and firerate bonuses in VATS. Focus on raw damage output instead.
