    Here are some valuable tips that I've learned for survival mode/permadeath:
    Caps:
    - Prewar money; weightless, infinite supply at Lexington bank that respawns every 8 hours of game time if you DO NOT go into the Super Duper mart!
    * Simply setup a bed and sink at the Drive-in just north of Lexington, sleep 8 hours, run down to bank, pick up PWM and return. Rinse and repeat as needed, about 150 PWM per run.
    - Ammo: save all that you don't use for your preferred guns, low weight and can sell for 1 cap per, getting the Scrounger perk will boost this caps source
    * Put into a storage container you make at your settlements, store until you are ready to buy stuff
    - Drugs: I only ever use Berry and Grape Mentats, and sell the rest, they have a high cap/weight making them ideal for selling for caps
    * Put into a storage container you make at your settlements, store until you are ready to buy stuff
    - Purified water: heavy, but you can make a lot if you build water generators in Sanctuary (whenever you find Carla in Sanctuary, sell them to her for ammo or materials + all her caps)
    * Remove every 24 hours game time or it won't accumulate anymore, remove all Aid items and bottles from settlement storage (put them into your own storage)
    - Caltrop & Poisoned Caltrops: heavy, but you can make a lot of them and they have a high value and you get XP for making them
    * Same as above, put into your own storage for when you want to use them to buy stuff
    Food:
    - Wild Mutfruit is plntiful around Red Rocket & Abernathy farm, as long as you DO NOT go into the Molerat Den, they will respawn every 24 hours of game time making them excellent food source early on
    - Get the magazine at Sunshine Tidings before killing animals, it will double your meat extraction from killing animals
    - Cooked Radstag increases carry weight by 25 lbs. for 1 hour real time
    - Noodle Soup (Razorgrain + Dirty Water) both feeds and hydrates you
    - At all settlements, grow; Mutfruit, Corn, Tatoes (for Vegetable Starch/adhevsive) and Razorgrain (for Noodle soup)
    - Collect all empty bottles when going around, use these to produce Purified Water with Sink, Waterfountain or Pump
    - Put as many water generators as you can at Sanctuary, Drive-in, etc. for free purified water supply
    Surviving:
    - Avoid; flying insects (always), feral ghouls (have a safe spot that they can't reach you so you can pot shot them), molerats (especially the unique at Olivia with a mine strapped to it) and mirelurks until you reach level 20+
    - Avoid any unnecessary fights --> this is one of the hardest lessons to learn, but don't start anything unless you really know the extent of the fight you're getting into
    - Learn where the frequent respawn areas are (e.g. the diner just west of Hangman's Alley) respawn enemies very quickly (8 hours of game time?), avoid if you're not ready for a fight
    - Swim whenever possible, best way to travel with lowest risk --> get Aqua Boy/Girl perk early!
    - Run/Sneak whenever you aren't swimming, but stay aware of your surroundings, you don't want to get into the middle of a bunch of feral ghouls or flying insects by mistake
    Rads/HP:
    - Decontaimination Arch at settlements removes all rads, as soon as you get enough Fibre Optic mats, make one, you'll never regret it
    - Cooked Mutant Dog removes rads, carry 2-4 with you all the time
    - Hazmat suit gives 1,000 resisitance to Radiation, you can always find one at Farron's in Diamond City and on the first mission with Deacon for the Railroad (in the room next to where you get Deliverer)
    - Nuka-cola + Dirty water or Nuka-cola + Nuka Cherry = no rad, high hp recovery drinks --> build a Nuka Cola station in your main settlements and always carry 4-6 with you, hotkey them (they are better than Stimpacks), plus they give you caffeine to offset tiredness
    - Wild Mutfruit (only 2 rads per), cooked animal meat & purified water for typical HP recovery, plus you make XP by cooking food
    Sleeping:
    - Raised beds are "clean" and can be slept in >5 hours, full rest
    - Mattresses and sleeping bags on the ground are "dirty" and can only be slept in

      Damn, I am also playing survival on permadeath but that part of no drugs is crazy to me. I live on a constant 24/7 bufftats + psychobuff + jet fuel combo haha. Thanks for the tip when it comes to the soup, it is just a straight up better way of eating and drinking than what I am currently doing.

    • @MegaGeministar
      @MegaGeministar Před 5 dny

      @mortenbecksrensen7409 if you like permadeath playthroughs, there is a new mod on Nexus called, "Permadeath" that erases all your saves and writes an obituary when you die. Makes restarting easier because you don't have of those old saves cluttering up your drive.
      BTW, why do you use that drug combo? I tend to play a stealthy sniper build and never need drugs except in a couple of specific encounters (e.g. Sinjin to save Keny and Kellogg)

    Survival mode is amazing. I always start with 6 charisma so I can get the local leader perk and build a network of settlements all over the map. That way I can stash my junk and food ingredients at any of my settlements, and also do my cooking and crafting from any of my settlements (as soon as I can start building crafting stations).
    I usually make my “home base” at Hangman’s Alley, because it’s pretty close to the center of the map, and it’s close to Diamond City where I can buy and sell ammo.

  • @TheWatchmanOfTheEnd
    @TheWatchmanOfTheEnd Před rokem +138

    If I may add a number 6 tip: Build 2 large water purifiers in Sanctuary immediately. Not only do you get spammable healing items that are actually OP in the early game but any remaining water can be sold for a relatively good amount of caps to vendors which will help you upkeep more expensive ammo types and buy chems or craftables for healing/curing with.

    It's funny when I run into people that are surprised at using the 10mm to take down tough enemies. On my last survival permadeath run, I defeated both Coulter & the Nukalurk Queen with the 10mm, and both were very short fights.
    Also, thank you for including berry mentats! Antifreeze bottle is probably the most underrated junk item.

      @SuperTwonky Před 2 lety +3

      @@seanrimada8571 it’s good, but not that much better than a normal 10mm. Dealing extra limb damage doesn’t equate to dealing more damage to an enemy’s HP. It just means you’ll cripple limbs faster. So if you use VATS, it can be good for things like stopping high level ghouls in their tracks by targeting their legs. But on a non-VATS build, you probably won’t see much of a difference from using a non-legendary 10mm.

    @Moontrap Před 2 lety +32

    If you apply bloody mess, it will increase your damage to the 10 mm (read all weapons), plus their is the lone wander perk as well. Life giver is also a good one to max out as it makes up for any damage you get from being over encumbered and you don't die by accident. Sneak maxing is a must as well as you don't set off land mines or any other traps too. Taking the breathing underwater perk is also a quick way to get around parts of the map.
    I kind of like starting out with full intelligence, go to sanctuary, grab a beer from the basement bunker, and then go to the character's old home. Their I get near the special book, drink the beer, make sure my intelligence is now 9 due to it, then select the special book. Once the beer wears off, I now have 11 intellect for the rest of the game.

    Here's another tip I found, Fallout Wiki stated that with enough sleep (7 hours or more) you can stay awake for 12-14 hours. But since I always walk in sneak mode everywhere and never run or sprint, I can stay awake for more than 24 hours. Not sure the exact times, I only noticed this when I completed Nuka Worlds Power Play, cant find bed there, so I always watched the timer. Completed the quest after 23 hours without tired when I finally used a bed to save. Another thing for Nuka World, if you let Operator alive you'll unlocked their perk that give straight increase for any weapon with silencer, not a stealth attack, but raw damage.

    --Don't clear areas which spawn mirelurks & eggs if you can avoid it. This ensures the area will fully respawn upon each visit. Cutler Bend is a great example. Just travel along one side of the river per visit, collecting eggs & meat.
    Those mirelurk eggs combined with dirty water yield mirelurk egg omelets, each capable of filling you up from a peckish state with only one serving. They each weigh 0.1 pounds, making them priceless. Stockpile them for long trips where you are away from support, such as forays into the Glowing Sea or Far Harbor.
    You get as much nutrition from 1 pound of mirelurk egg omelets as you would from 10 pounds of mutt chops or grilled radstag.
    --Craft and use the Nuka mixer stations! Nuka cola and dirty water become Nuka Free, which allows you to stave off fatigue while adding zero radiation. This can allow you to keep the high adrenaline damage bonus going when necessary.

    Protip: 11 Charisma wins any speech challenge. If you find a red dress (1.5 lbs.), Black rimmed glasses and a hat (Trilby, Formal, Militia, etc) you can swap to them before any convo to reduce prices and win speech checks. With Bobblehead, means you`d need 6 Chr at start to achieve 11.
    Also, Grape Mentats give a whopping +5 Chr & -10% pricing, should be used before any big purchase to save/make caps/profit.

      Before visiting a trader, I change into my Charisma gear (glasses +1, hat +1, and clothing +2 or +3), drink a beer +1 and pop a Grape Mentats +5 for an added 10 or 11 Charisma. When I leave the trader, they have no caps left for a day or two.

    I like Permadeath, for the adrenaline rush when facing tough odds, or close calls. I’m on Fo3 and FoNV playthroughs. So far always very hard difficulty, plus hardcore mode in FoNV. I haven’t figured out if Fo3 does hardcore, too. I was disappointed to learn Fo3 gives bonus XP in very hard difficulty. Fortunately, FoNV does not.
    Do you have content that might help with a Permadeath run through Fo3 or FoNV? I was hoping this video offered info I could generalize to use in them, but it was quite specific. Albeit perhaps the notion of using weapons whose ammo type is common is solid in any scenario.

      First, thanks for watching the video! When it comes to both 3 and NV challenge runs, I don't have enough experience at the moment to give you a good answer. However, I would recommend checking out Bugsy308. I found him on Twitch, but he's also here under the same name. He does No-Hit runs for 3, NV, and 4. I know that 'No-Hit' and 'Permadeath' aren't the same thing, but I think the strategies could still be applied. Hopefully that helps. Cheers!

    I can't kill, loot or buy anything outside my settlements

      @edmartin875 Před 2 měsíci

      I can see a few problems with attempting this challenge.
      First, what is meant by "can just shred the whole game by being overleveled and overgeared"?
      Second, how can you start new settlements ? i.e. You reach level 10 and you are ready to go to your next Settlement but you can't go there until you own it and you don't own it until after it has been established. Even to start Sanctuary you have to rescue Preston and his charges, which involves killing outside your Settlements.
      Third, Settlements that do not have a road going to them at all, like Abernathy, Tenpines, and Murkwater are unavailable to you.
      Fourth, You better be fond of gourds and melons until you can find other produce on the bodies of Settlement attackers that you can plant and start growing new crops.
      Fifth, just establishing a Settlement outside Sanctuary, many times requires killing outside the Settlement, which would mean these settlement locations are off limits to you.
      Following the rules you stated you can't even get started or expand once you are started.
      You need a new rule number 1. You have to own all available Settlement locations in the Commonwealth and In the cases where a settlement location already has farmers on them you will have to kill those farmers and take over the Settlement, as the farmers have quests for you that are outside the Settlement. Or, those Settlements with farmers are also off limits to you.
      Question, Will the game even let you start a Settlement in a location where you killed the farmers without doing their quest, like The Slog and Greentop Nursery, etc ? Granted there are a few locations where the quest is to kill the local inhabitants. And then there is Jamaka Plain where the quest requires killing both inside and outside the Settlement boundary, making it also off limits to you.
      I think this challenge is flawed from the git go, my friend.

      @@Shuvvel depends how you play, armour piercing 10mm is a beast, it just chews through ammo.
      The best receiver could be a light one, with a luck build, some perception and agility you get 16 shots (the max) chance for vats to replenish, huge criticals , bonus criticals.
      Criticals every 6 shots, (I got a 38. Regular pipe pistol still carrying me. )
      It’s practically Never ending vats criticals and shots. One round of that is slightly better than an advanced receiver.
      Just don’t nerf your potential with compensators,muzzle breaks or silencers. Use light barrels, small quick ammo clips, reflex sight.
      Saying that, I can’t find a good place or build for using criticals damage receivers. Light one surpass them over time by costing less vats, maybe a “lucky weapon” but you can’t plan for RNG. And 7 intelligence for righteous authority for a luck build is kinda dumb.

      @@christinaedwards5084 light receiver lowered damage vs vats fire rate when weighed against advanced receiver vats fire rate the advanced absolutely blows it out of the water. I'd guess that your luck would have to be 15+ to have the faster crit charge from more shots to come close to the effect of the raw damage and fire rate combination from the advanced receiver. I'm sure that somebody out there has done the math. Light is for sure fun early game before you have gun nut 2 though.
      Either way, luck builds are kinda niche anyway as you'll be able to put out massive damage without vats with an advanced receiver and luck build perk investment is just crazy.

      You don’t need heavy armour (drifter coat is good enough for a while) you don’t need gun nut ( there’s plenty of guns lying around with upgrades you want) you’re not carrying the contents of the waste land around in your pockets so no inventory management, just lots of Chems you made to use and sell , and tons of food and water.

    Tip for a fast - and SAFE - doctor: Start the game with at least CHR 6 and INT 2(or 1 less of either stat, then use the SPECIAL book to raise it the missing point). Assign your first 3 perks to get both Local Leader perks and Medic level 1, then you can build a tier 3 clinic. This way you have access to a doctor before you even need to go to Concord. The only hard part might be raising the 1200 caps to build it, but if you sell all unnecessary stuff you can find in/near Sanctuary, Red Rocket Station and Abernathy Farm, you’ll be able to save up enough pretty fast selling it to traders.
