Just started Fallout 1 for the first time without looking for any guides or tutorials. what do you guys think of this build? Difficulty is set to hardest. Any tips for the beginner? it's also my first turn based isometric view CRPG
>>719377849This is similar to what I did for my first character. Apparently small frame + gifted is the gigabusted cheese strat.
I tried Fallout once before. it was like "you have 10 days to save the society" and I felt like there's no way I was gonna figure it out in time
>>719377849>Just started Fallout 1 for the first time without looking for any guides or tutorials. >goes on asking /v/ for advice and tipsYou dumb piece of shit. You might as well just use a guide!
>>719377849read the manual
>>719377849Throwing is godawful, drop it. You will seriously regret it.
>>719378504i already started and I always pick throwing in a video game ever since watching daredevil>>719378342that's what I mean i hate reading forums or official shit you guys are always more helpfulbtw i discovered cool easter egg, if you go to help screen by pressing f11 and alt+tab from the game and come back the screen will be black but by simply using your mouse (not clicking, clicking will disable the the easter egg) you start coloring the black screen pixel by pixel. I menaged to do only outline of what I assume is a vault dweller before getting bored. anyway i will get back to playing trying to leave the vault cave see ya
Charisma is useless in Fallout 1
>>719378828remember that there is a speed option in the settings, adjust it when there are a shitton of combatants/doing town combat otherwise EVERY PERSON IN THE VICINITY will get a turn and slowly move
>>719378828you can find a min/max FO1 guide in minutes. most people here don’t know what the fuck they’re talking about because it’s full of gachaposters and children who don’t play old games. you might as well just Google everything because you’re asking for tips and advice in the first place. i don’t know why you let yourself go through mental gymnastics
>>719378828>i already started and I always pick throwing in a video game ever since watching daredevilGo ahead, it's not like the weapons are bad, everything above throwing knife hits hard enough, it's just that they are so hard to find. Rather than underpowered, I think you might feel frustrated.
>>719377849Interesting build. I would prefer 10 agility. You need more strenght to wear power armor. You chose wrong perks. Small guns is must have. Throwing is useless. Unarmed with 4 strenght is useless. You have good stats for sniper. And you chose meele. Who want to punch Deathclaw to death?
>>719377849you will drop it in about 5 minutes
>>719378980really the only things i can think of are that i would tell a new player would be>skills go to 200% not 100, there are a ton of range/light modifiers so weapon skills should be leveled past 100.>dont go lower than 5 AGI because action points are king >outdoorsman and traps are nearly useless, science and repair can be boosted with in-game books, tools, npc buffs to pass nearly every important check (which are all % so you can savescum them anyways) >speech checks arent labelled in dialogue and are % based
>>719377849Any tips for the beginner?Read the fucking manual first.Or else you will drop the game in less than 10 minutes.
got to the vault 13 and killed the molerat i can already see i maybe choose the wrong build i could only hit him if he was standing next to mefirst lvl up im putting all points in guns>>719379457yes now I see it
>>719378237You have plenty of time. And even if you fuck up, you can just load an earlier save and avoid the areas you go that aren't plot relevant or party relevant.Like if you spend 3 days travelling to the glow and somehow survive THAT without radiation protection, you at least know to avoid that area before you are forced to go there.
>>719379579Your picrel leads to thoughts that enrage me. I hate the TV show and F76 so much
OP, why dump strength for your unarmed/throwing build?
>>719379976Anything post-Tactics is non-Canon and not Fallout. Yes, that even includes New Vegas (which I sort of head-canon into the Interplay/canon universe) with some of the original FO1-2, Tactics team on it.Beth completely ruined the series when 1 INT retards can literally hack a computer easy-peasy lemon squeezy and lockpick with the best of them. No 10 Luck, either. Just straight up 1 INT, 1 LUCK about do shit higher stats characters should do but struggle with.
>>719380061I didn't think this through. and I didn't know throwing is connected to strenght but it makes senseanyway I went looking for a town to buy a rope to get down an elevator shaft and got stopped by a group of people I thought they were bandtis but it;s apparently trading caravan i fucked up because I gave him my extra knife for free I didn't realize you have to like get bottle caps from his inventory i thought it was automatic. my bad i guess
>>719379861No, keep going with unarmed, it gets very strong later.
