    Thank you so much for telling me about the filter mechanic, it's so confusing not having a Fallout game hold your hand for the first 10 minutes and give you the rundown of the S.P.E.C.I.A.L. system. I didn't understand how to level up different attributes since you can usually move them up and down at the start like in New Vegas.

    Thanks for this overview. Super helpful as a new player.
    I'm not sure if it's something that would warrant its own video, but I really like the way you explain things about this game and you seem very knowledgeable/passionate about it, so if you think it would be a good topic, I'd love to see a video about Fallout 1st.

    Great video! Thank you for creating a simple to understand explanation. That being said, I do have a question I'm struggling to find an answer to. Should I be getting every perk card to max rank within every S.P.E.C.I.A.L? Is this even possible to do? As a new player I'm not sure what build I'll end up leaning towards, nor am I sure what perks I may, or may not be using at higher levels. I just want to be sure, if making a bad investment in ranking any given perk won't hinder my build at "so called" end game.

    Im currently level 30 and i was wondering if my perception was ranked up to 15 for example and i leveled up and put it into perception again it would stay 15, so once i get to level 50 would i have less points to allocate to all stats?

    • @TH3MUL31983
      @TH3MUL31983 Před 2 měsíci +1

      It wouldn't let you put any more into perception once it's 15. So nah, you won't lose any points. You'll just have to spend them on other stats.

  • @sniffsniffle4650
    @sniffsniffle4650 Před 2 měsíci +1

    What happens if you have certain perk cards maxed and after shuffling your stats, you wanted those particular cards to be only 1 or 2 levels instead of being maxed? Would you just have to keep leveling until you get more perk packs and pray that you get a level 1 card again?

    • @wiggle_plays
      @wiggle_plays  Před 2 měsíci +2

      You can just select the level 1 version of that perk when you level up. There may be perks that you have ranks 1, 2 and 3 that you swap in and out depending your build. Every time you level up, you get to choose a perk card even past level 50.

  • @SweetCre4m20
    @SweetCre4m20 Před 28 dny

    This has been confusing me and I haven't found anyone on the internet explaining it. Your Action Boy perk card can be reached up two more times to rank 3 but the animated Action Boy perk card you get it the perk pack says it can be ranked up an extra time, if you pause at 5:10 you can see the animated card can have 4 stars but the normal card can only have 3, I've noticed this everytime I get an animated card but it always disappears, someone please explain why that happens.

      Yuh the game wasn’t very clear on how the perk cards work, when I first saw the cards like say “rifle man” I didn’t know u could stack that with expert or master rifle man, so when I reached level 80 I kinda got tired of the game cuz everything was just a bullet sponge and I’ve wasted so much ammo and would always use melee to grind for ammo while my lead extractor mines for lead, then I just got off and now I realize what I should’ve done and what I should do and hopefully get back into this game

      Once you hit level 50, you stop getting a point in specials but you still get to pick a perk. You'll be able to swap out perks you don't want for ones you do. No need to start over.

    I watched as a returning player to understand the legendary cards and the special cap. The cards say the cap is 15, so I thought they set them to that cap, but I found I could increase my SPECIAL past 10 without them. On top of that, if 15 is the cap, then what does that mean for all the legendary effects and buffs from food, ect. Does boosting strength above 15 actually increase melee damage still? Honestly, I loved this game at launch, dumping to stupid amount of hours into it back then, but coming back to it with all the changes, I very confused between what used to be correct and whats in the game now. So much so, I kind of wish I was playing it for the first time lol

    • @wiggle_plays
      @wiggle_plays  Před 2 měsíci +2

      Your SPECIALs can be boosted well past 15 but you can only allocate 15 points worth of perks per SPECIAL. Boosting strength above 15 does increase melee damage.
