It's noticable enough if you dont drop it to just 1, shouldve allowed more companions for every 2 points tho, like agility shouldve granted slight speed buffs per point

I like your method, but as of now I don't have any of the DLCs. With that said, should I set my SPECIAL the way you have or is there a better method to take?

+5% to their damage and defense for every point is minor, at max 10 that's +50% which is pretty insane but overall they're not needed. and if you run certain traits and perks, you can get like 4-6 Temporary Charisma while just starting at 1 (granted that won't effect the companion stats as it must be a perma point) even then, just having 2 from the implant is a +10% which is pretty decent anyway for almost any companion.

@@theomegablade6415 It would’ve been worth it in FO4 if it could make your companions more accurate-might have made me less annoyed by them.

@@Slender_Man_186 Fair point with the strength. The reason why I start 5 is for the two +50 carry weight perks. Do you run your build for multiple weapons in mind or just one? My build to start is S:5 P:5 E:7 C:1 I:4 A:9 L:9, with Skilled and Trigger Discipline being the traits. All implants except Charisma and Intelligence, the Ranger Sequoia, Ulysses' Duster, 1st Recon Beret, and Reinforced Spine (my mistake in my initial comment) I have an effective 45% crit chance S:8 P:6 E:8 C:1 I:4 A:10 L:10 I'm built for my favorite weapon (and the Anti-Material Rifle) meanwhile your build sounds like anyone who walks in your direction is going to have a bad day.

@@conqueror7777 I figured out a better version of my build, one that can take Skilled instead of Small Frame and no Intense Training needed, you have to start with 2 strength instead. This kinda forces you into energy weapons exclusively in the early game and the low carry weight sucks for a while, but you still end up with the same end stats. See, I basically just forgot about two whole ass perks that are great: Reinforced Spine from Old World Blues, and the free SPECIAL point you get after beating Lonesome Road. When you start OWB you get the Spineless perk that gives you +1 strength, and with Weapon Handling you have the requirements for the YCS-186, take Rapid Reload before that and the DLC shouldn’t even be a problem at level 16, take your spine back at the end and you get a +2 increase instead. Get the implant with all of the caps you got from Big Mt and you’re back up to 5 strength. You could honestly go right into LR from there, although get faction reps in order before you do so you get the Duster you want. Speaking of which, If you decide to go with the Yesman Duster, start with 7 Luck instead, put the spare point into anything, use Naughty Nightwear for early game gambling. You can’t do this with any of the other Courier Duster variants, at least I don’t, I need 8 naturally Agility for Tunnel Runner, 6 natural Strength for Burden to Bear, and 8 natural Endurance for the GRX Implant perks. I prefer Mr. House’s for the agility buff reload speed increase, the YCS-186 is great but reloading after every shot sucks, and I also like to occasionally switch off to Ulysses’ Duster for the 5% crit chance increase in “oh fuck” situations and they look identical.

Eh slots is time consuming and not as effective as you’d think. The best idea for slots is to get to around 1k of the limit of the casino and then hope to get fruit from the fruitstand as then you will achieve all Casino bonuses as well as upwards of 3000 extra caps.

Blackjack is the absolute best way to make money fast.

@@AndreasFunnell not in my experience. It's reliable, but it's also really slow. In the time you spend clearing out a casino via the card table, you could easily hit a jackpot on slots and clean out the house. Slots are my preferred go-to, especially if I'm doing a low-luck build.

Thank you for watching the video and for your comment, I appreciate the constructive feedback! Regarding traits, I find Fast Shot and Trigger Discipline to be pretty bad. Fast Shot doesn't affect automatic weapons at all, which is probably what most people have in mind when they pick that trait. This means you only benefit if you're using semi-automatic weapons, so Fast Shot would be a big hinderance in accuracy where you need it most. Trigger Discipline does affect automatic weapons, which I think makes it even worse than Fast Shot. I don't want my automatic weapons to fire 20% slower in exchange for some extra accuracy. Small Frame does cause you to take 25% more limb damage, but mid/late game you have so many stimpaks and doctor's bags that it becomes a non issue and is basically a free +1 AGI. Regarding Educated, I agree that it's not necessary. You're also right that Comprehension is not necessary, but if you choose to not take Comprehension then you have to save/load the workbench crates in Honest Hearts to make up for the skill points you're missing out on. This can take thousands of attempts if you're unlucky, and I assumed most people didn't have the patience for this, including myself. The path to New Vegas I showed in the video also avoids all deathclaws and mutants. The path you suggested is equally as good. Using the metro to sneak into the Strip is nice, but you're gonna have to unlock the main gate at some point in the game anyways. Might as well do it now while we have caps. They don't actually take 2000 caps from you, they just check to make sure you have more than 2000, so it doesn't cost us anything.

With Small Frame ... once you have repair to 55, go to the top of the hill by Goodsprings Source (Barton Thorn's girlfriend). Damage your limbs with the Bear Trap, reset it with repair 55, heal on mattress, repeat 50 times (if hardcore, use hydra, doctor bags, weapon binding ritual, daturana, or healing poultice so you don't have to go to an owned bed or a doctor between each damage). This is the Tough Guy challenge that reduces limb damage by 20%, basically negating Small Frame. Also, Adamantium Skeleton, Toughness, Hit the Deck, and Tribal Wisdom (Honest Hearts) are good to reduce/negate limbs damage. There are very few ways to increase SPECIAL, so giving +1 Agility is pretty big. By taking Small Frame, you have an extra point that would have been used in Agility, that can now be used for any other SPECIAL. Agility increases guns skill & sneak skill, draw & holster speed, reload speed, and increases action points available for VATS. Also, it's required to be 5 6 7 or 8 for many of the best perks.

Yup, also, it's not hard to pickpocket the one from Joe Cobb, but of course, one has to do the intro part first to spawn him.

I used to love 'Early Bird', but now I exclusively go 'Skilled' (without exploiting) and 'Built to destroy'. Just such good traits if you want to use the perks 'Super Slam' and/or 'And Stay Back'.

@@AnonymousAnonymous-qo8gr It looks like a weird bug, I recommend you to restart your game, I hope it will refresh everything up.

God forbid playing the game after this start

I’m about to go download new vegas on steam and exploit this glitch. That is more interesting to me than a non min-maxed character. It’s a single player game too lol.

It literally is basically console commands, just longer. The goodsprings glitch let’s you get 50 perks but requires a ton of grinding. The ammo hot key glitch can give one a serious op advantage when combined with the goodsprings glitch. The bottlecap glitch is also op.

Well yes and no

it is cheating but so is using the sprint mod

unarmed is the most broken build doesn't need to be min maxed its just insane anyways

the great thing about new vegas is that there's an infinite amount of ways to break a level one character. You can reload dash with the revolver, you can do the skilled exploit, you can get implants at level one, you can do so many things its ridiculous. Meanwhile skyrim the only thing you can do to get op is the alchemy enchant loop.

@@kiwifarmsalwayswins8316 block boosting too if you want to add onto the list of things. not that this is level one territory but you can nuke both ncr and the legion and have them not hate you. hell, I've punched the legendary bloatfly to death just bc of boredom. ive made a all 10 special, all 100 skill character before. there's a lot to the game that you can do, period.

I'm assuming it's because of oversights and or the gamebyro engine that new vegas runs on.

You don't need the ncr uniform either just run by the guards and jump on the monorail. They are not hostile after you exit on the strip.

Hi thanks for your comment. The reason why I don't use the snowglobes early on is because that requires you to enter the Lucky 38 and talk to Mr. House, which at level 1 means you can't negotiate for more caps for the Platinum Chip because of low barter. You also trigger a reputation reset with the NCR when you first leave the Lucky 38 and the soldier comes up to talk to you, which I choose to save until after I nuke them during Lonesome Road. This way you have no negative reputation with the NCR. There are also more suits of black combat armor in the game, so I don't care to sell them, and you can also get even better armor early game like Combat Armor Reinforced from gambling at Gomorrah. I hope this helped!

@@CamBamGames Hypothetically though I think it'd be faster still if you were to go to Vegas right away and gamble then. It saves out the stealth boy, selling everything and even the armor. While I do know that it's scripted to happen using the rep reset after nuking might be considered a exploit by definition. Me though--I don't really care. I do it too but if it is a exploit then why not take the easy out to Vegas and get the implants that way? If it's not a exploit then sure I understand, but like whoever said it you can just run straight into the monorail skipping black Mt altogether. it's scripted that they attack you but once youre in Vegas you're free. How long does this take you, from the moment you leave ol doc Mitchell's to the implant?

savescumming isn't an exploit or a glitch though it's just reloading a save

@@nuwcz What would be the point for a dev to put in a system for a random chance event if they intended the player to cheese it with saves? My point is that both are equally as unintended by the devs

@@zaydengestures7275 still not a glitch or an exploit. and savescumming is intended, why would they add gambling cooldown in fnv if they didn't expect people to savescum gambling, when you add saving to a game you willingly know people will reload saves to get favourable outcomes. a glitch that duplicates items or breaks the gameplay is a completely different thing. imo having to watch a guide like this is more unintended than savescumming. you're cheating by knowing exactly where to go, basically the same as if you played and savescummed back.

Only one of those two things is a bug and not a 'feature' of every game with a save function. If you play with one of the patches, the Skilled stacking doesnt work anymore because it's a unintended exploit, so they are different.

@@guber9339 Calling it a feature is a stretch. Theres loads of bugs, especially in Bethesda games, that never get patched. And there are features put in games to stop you from doing stuff like this, like how the loot is made permanent once you enter the house, hence why you have to save outside to keep rerolling. Saying this is a feature is like saying its a feature to kill shop keepers in skyrim and reload to change what items are selling. They are both exploits, one just has an easy fix, and therefor was fixed. If there was a way to code the game so EVERY item in the random loot pool was fixed into a solid state as soon as you start a game, they would probably implement it given this is an exploit thats been around in the creation engine for ages. But its simply not a feasible fix both in the engine they are currently using, along with how big the worlds are. 0/10 man.

Why would savescumming be an exploit? An exploit is an unintended mechanic, stacking the same trait when resetting your build isn't intended. There is an anti savescum mechanic when gambling in the casino, so if there isn't one for loot spawning it's more likely intended

@@Yunoxz if it's an intended mechanic then why doesn't the loot reroll every time you load into an area? By that same logic everything that can be exploited but savescumming is ALSO a mechanic. So savescumming to get a critical hit in every situation>mechanic. Savescumming to pass any chance encounter>mechanic. Savescumming to get specific random encounters> mechanic. No, it's not a mechanic. It's an exploit. It's a way to work around the games actual mechanics to get a specific outcome you desire. By this same logic, again, killing every merchant in Skyrim to reload their inventory is a mechanic. Forgive me, but I don't buy it. I have a hard time seeing how good ol Todd was totally planning for people to spend 60 minutes killing the same npc over and over so they got the firesalts they wanted. An ACTUAL example of a mechanic and not an exploit is how oblivion merchants restocked every 3 days. You could easily wait the 3 days in game, and check to see what they had. And that goes for many other mechanics within Bethesda games. They have repeatedly shown that they have pre built in mechanics to help with certain issues that do NOT involve savescumming. Respawning loot and enemies in dungeons in oblivion is another great example. In that situation, you either: put in the effort to get the items the legitimate way, or you savescum. Of course the 2nd saves an immense amount of time, but this isn't about time it's about "doing it without cheating". Savescumming is an exploit. Nothing more. There is nothing to show that this is an intended mechanic put in by developers. The fact that he only uses savescumming to get around obstacles put in by developers just goes to show that. The game says "don't go this way", player goes that way, player will die going said way if not for one specific item, player savescums to get extremely specific item. "but it's a mechanic". Sure.

That's just a quality of life mod really.
