Damn, there are a ton of new perks, and from the brief look I had of them, I know I'm going to have a tough ti deciding which of them I want over the others. On the other hand, there are a number of them that are pretty much worthless to , such as Patcher, for instance. Reason being I already possess a perk that basically has the sa effect, though that one requires ti to accomplish the sa thing.
Finished thinking about that, I returned to the beginning of the long list of the perks and started carefully weighing the positives and negatives of each one of them and whether it was worth taking it over the many other options I had laying right in front of .
Starting with the level 0 perks, I'm going to pick up Speed Loader first since it will be very useful for reloading any weapons that take a pretty long ti to reload, such as my Carl Gustaf and minigun.
Imagining myself reloading a recoilless rifle with lightning quick speed, I continued on down the list and picked up Cat Eyes, so in the unlikely event my equipnt was damaged or disabled at night or in a low light environnt I would still possess the ability to see. After that, I took a mont to inspect the level 4 perks before quickly moving onto the level 6 perks because none of the level 4 perks stood out as sothing I absolutely had to have.
I have that egg I'm going to be raising, thus it would be wise to grab the two remaining ranks of Nature Affinity, so the little guy and I start off on the best foot possible when it soday hatches.
Spending two points easily, I continued scanning down the list until the level 12 perks where I picked up Another Skill Talent for obvious reasons and Iron Fist because having a fist as hard as iron sounded pretty legit. Moving right along from there, I arrived at the level 14 perks.
Infiltrator wouldn't be a bad choice, but I don't see it being all that useful to at this given mont. That said, I'll keep it in the back of mind and pick it up if I have so points left over. Recipe Improvent, in contrast, is a must have since it will enhance the effects of whatever chems, drugs, and aid items I use and produce.
That perk will increase my gains by a huge amount and provide innurable benefits to myself and those I give my products to, and if I want, I can take advantage of the enhanced effects of my products, making all other pharmaceuticals produced by others irrelevant.
Taking that perk, I looked to the level 16 perks and picked up Lady Killer simply for the extra charm it will provide when dealing with the fairer sex. Besides that, I also acquired That's A Lot Of Damage for the huge damage boost it will give my critical hits.
A 20% reduction to all stamina costs and a doubling of my calculation sounds pretty legit, so I'll add Calculative Individual to my perk selection. Lighter Load will cut my primary weapons' weights in half, thereby allowing to carry a hell of a lot more shit wherever I go.
Taking that perk as well, I moved on to the level 20 perks. Although, not before taking note of Seasoned Soldier, food can never taste too good.
Yeah, I'm 100% taking Assassin, a guaranteed critical strike isn't sothing I can pass on. And to go along with that pick, I'm going to grab Quick Learner for the increased experience rate it provides that increases with each new level up and Ravager which will keep fighting for longer if not in the fight till I run out of enemies to slaughter.
Done having my pick of the level 20 perks, I proceeded to the level 22 perks.
A Hunger For Knowledge would have been super useful back when I was undergoing my study and knowledge acquisition arc, but that is long over with, so the extra boost to my reading isn't all that worthwhile for any longer. As for the other perks, I'll pick up Efficient Weapon Handling because I can never have enough stamina and Savage for the poison resistance it provides, though the additional 20% DT is nice too.
The level 24 perks aren't bad per se, however there are better options ahead, hence I'll pass on these for now and look at the level 26 ones instead... These four are a hell of a lot more useful to , Bone Head will make it harder for to be knocked out which is sothing I'd rather avoid especially in the wasteland since if I get knocked there's a good chance I won't be waking up.
I don't necessarily need Child Of Light, but the perk will increase my health regeneration substantially, which in turn will cause my body and physical attributes to improve much faster from training. Additionally, since all it takes for it to be active is for to be exposed to light, I'll be able to take advantage of its effects nearly all the ti.
Computer Whiz is a new perk that wasn't in any of the three gas and the 100% typing speed will be useful for programming, research, hacking the last of which isn't sothing I really need to do any longer now that I have chanical Domination, and its other effect has intrigued, so why not. As for the fourth perk Tough Skeleton, I'm taking it over other perks because I want tougher and stronger bones, I didn't break any bones in the entirety of my previous life and I don't plan on letting it happen in this life if I can help it.
With all four of level 26 perks selected, I looked at the level 28 perks next to see if there were any of them I wanted to add to my current selection.
They're all great perks in their own right, but I've already spent more than half of the perk points I have available. So I'm going to need to start being frugal with how I invest the rest of my points and out of the four perks here, tal Detector is hands down the most useful and valuable to , given my current life circumstances.
Thus, with that decided, let check out the next four... None of these stand out as sothing I gotta have. I'll for sure take Tech Junkie in the future since it will be extraordinarily useful when I soday raid Area 51 but if I were to take it now, it would be essentially useless to seeing as there isn't a single piece of human tech within the confines of this undercity that I do not understand.
Selecting that lone perk, I began inspecting the level 32 perks and out of the four; I ended up going with Braced simply due to the defense boost it gives whenever I'm in combat and Leader Of The Pack because of the 10% damage increase it will give all of my comrades when fighting alongside .
When that bonus is applied one day to the many, many thousands of robots I plan building, let's just say I don't think anyone would want to be on the receiving end of their weapons, including myself.
Of the level 34 perks I would love to have all four, particularly Armor Smith and Weapon Smith however seeing as I how my combat phase will basically be nil for the next several years it's kind of pointless to invest in skills that won't be able to really prove their worth till the day I leave the undercity for the wasteland.
I could say the sa for the other combat perks I've taken up to this point but they aren't just providing a 20% increase and will increase my combat power by a very substantial amount like in the case of Assassin with its ability to guarantee a critical strike. And since I've selected perks such as Assassin, it would only make sense to take Warrior as well, since it will further empower my previous choices.
Done there, I moved my focus to the level 36 perks and saw two that imdiately stood out to .
Gotta have quick hands, doubling the speed of my hands is just too good to pass on and Sniper will make hitting headshots easier and increase the already high damage I inflict when normally targeting soone's head, twenty-six perk points ten more left to spend.
All of level 38's perks are great, but I'm going to have to go with Commander for the damage upgrade it will provide to all my forces. Death Sense is another perk I can't skip, there ain't no way I can pass on having a sixth sense that will warn of danger.
Continuing onto the next four perks, we got Healer, Regeneration, Pain Resistance, and Tech Scav. They're all decent perks, Healer would be a great perk to have in my arsenal for when I'm dispensing aid to others and myself and because it raises effective healing, it would speed up my body's regeneration.
In turn, lessening the ti needed for my body to repair all the damage I deal to it every day from my daily workout and training regi that sotis occurs multiple tis a day depending on how much spare ti I got.
However, when compared to Regeneration, it just can't compete and as much as I would like to add it to my picks, I think I would be better off spending the point elsewhere on a different perk. As for Tech Scav, it's entirely useless to at this ti since I'm almost entirely producing my own equipnt and parts and doing next to no salvaging.
Ignoring that perk, I can't possibly do the sa with Pain Resistance. The extre pain I'm going to face in a short while from now is going to be the worst of yet with how many level ups I'm doing in one spurt. Hence, it would be wise to take advantage of everything I can to lessen the amount of suffering I have to go through.
Allotting a point for each of those two perks, I turned my sights to the proceeding four.
Eagle Eye would allow to spot foes from an extraordinarily long ways out, thereby increasing my survivability. In addition to that it would be useful for doing precision work and will be of help with long range shooting. So I'll add it to the list and while I'm at it, I'll do the sa for Leave Nothing Behind, an extra 1,000 carry weight is too good to pass on.
I could've taken either Ammo Depot instead, but an extra 1,000 carry weight is just simply better at this ti, although that won't remain the case forever when I'm one day carrying a literal ammo depot around with wherever I travel.
Proceeding to the level 44 perks, I looked at the bunch of them and quickly deduced which of them I wanted.
Yeah, I have to have Human Warehouse, doubling my carry weight will allow to carry so much more. Aside from that, I'll take Pleasure, to make Alice's first ti enjoyable though that won't be happening for another seven years. However, in the anti I can use it in the massages I give her after our workouts and training and whenever she requests them.
Hmm, I'm not too sure about this but I could probably use it as a torture thod and for extracting information from said victims. Although there is only one gender I would be willing to use it on because there is no way I'd be participating in edging another man. Moving onto the next perks, I'm going to grab Ghost because why wouldn't want to phase through walls and shit.
Together with that perk, I'm going to select Second Wind, for the simple fact that it's a lifesaver and a major trump card to have in my back pocket. Although I have no plan on using it nor putting myself in the kind of situation where it kicks in since that's more than likely a death sentence but it's nice to know I have sothing to rely upon if shit ever hits the fan and becos that desperate.
Finally, I've arrived at the last four new perks, let's see if any of them are worth replacing any of the previous perks I've already selected.
I want Tank Commander, however I don't know whether it will affect any of my robots. I consider them all heavily armored, but I don't know if the perk will or not, so it's kind of iffy. That said, I think the benefits outweigh the concerns I have and if the robots I possess are considered heavy duty enough, I can always modify their pre-existing designs and up armor them until they qualify. Now what perk should be swapped out for it...
I'm not going to be doing any sort of killing anyti soon let alone be seeing combat so I'll remove Ravager from my list and while I'm at it I'm going to replace Leave Nothing Behind with Human Slter since it does the sa thing and also gives the ability to slt and refine resources in my inventory. Probably won't really use since I have two not so small arc furnaces already, regardless it won't hurt to have.
All 36 of my perks points allocated, I started exploring the large, growing perk list in front of to see if I wanted to modify my current selection of candidates.
...
I've looked back over the whole list of perks multiple tis now and overall, I'm satisfied with what I've chosen. That said, I wish I had more perk points at my disposal to spend since there are a ton of perks I wish I could've taken... There's no point thinking about this further when I could be better spending my ti completing this level up and getting back to the grind and continuing to progress towards my lofty goals.
