Here's a guide on how to get all your SPECIAL stats to 20+ at the start of the game: kzread.info/dash/bejne/oH2CxdemlsiXiJs.html I explained this badly in the video, so here's the SPECIAL book Guide: You can indeed raise your attributes over 10 with the SPECIAL book, but you must first reduce your attribute to make it available as an option. For example if you wanted 11 intelligence: you would first get a 10 in intelligence, then you would drink whiskey to temporarily reduce your intelligence by -1, you would then use the SPECIAL book so you can raise your intelligence by +1. Once the whiskey effects wear off you will now have 11 intelligence. If you now get the intelligence bobblehead you can reach 12 intelligence. Some stats can be pushed even higher but I could do a whole separate video about that.

Some things missing: - Start with Charisma 6. You find a Suit and a Headgear (Hat+Glasses) that add an onverall +4 to it so you can pass all Speechchecks early (! important to get Wolfgang to stand down and let it go - else, he is a very tough to beat Opponent on early Survival and even in Powerarmor !). If on Survival (what you should not normally when getting Info out of Vids like this) Strengh is also a pretty important Stat tu have from the Beginning - at least enough to get the Strong Back Perk (STR:6). Also, mind that "Steady Aim" (STR:7) adds to your Chance to Hit in VATS mode when shooting from the Hip aka use Pistols and Guns without having Scopes mounted (which also reduces the AP-Usage significantly). I normally start with a S.P.E.C.I.A.L. 7/4/1/6/4/3/3 to get Lockpick and HAcking, the Overall Damage+ from Luck and a VATS Pistolsniper Build, boosting the required Stats asap - but you also can entirely drop Perception to get Int 6 to do "Science" and instantly go for Energyweapons (can all converted between Rifle and Pistol as you like). - Do NEVER make Purified Water from Dirtyx Water. *NEVER.* Dirty Water is a main ingredient for many good basic Recipes, and you only get it by filling empty Bottles in "unclean" Watersources as Puddles, Lakes and Rivers. You can get an endless Supply of Purified Water very Easy - via Settlement mode and building. Just build Waterpumps - even the manually used ones will generate it over Time (every few Days, using them ingame does not speed it up). Also, you can build a Wallmounted Water Fountain to drink from that is concidred a "clean" Watersource for you on use (does not count to Water Supply towards Settlers). If you scrap the whole Sanctuary, you will find enough to make a few Waterpumps to create at least 20-50 Water every few Days and you also can do it (if keeping them unconnected) the same for the RR Station. So recycle the shit out of thoose two at least to get a Base - as the loot he shows is pretty incompatible with your Carry weight in Survival - and you want a place to cook,. sleep and eat safeley anyway. - Some Spots - differs every Game which - are "respawning", others not. I had good luck every Time with the first House into Concord - where you find Bobby Pins and a Safe as well as a Medkit to loot. Memorize thoose to revisit them. - Build a Settlement in Sanctuary. It takes a lot of Time, I know. But, that makes Carla visit Sanctuary after you met her, a wandering Merchant who is one f the early two Merchants you get acess to easy. The second is Trudy in the Diner a bit south to Concord on the way to the Starlight Movie Theatre. Just clean up the mess with Wolfgang, a Chems Dealer, peacefully. - The Starlight Theatre is the best Settlement to travel around from in the early to mid-Game, as there are 4 concurrent Spawnpoints around it you can farm repeatedly and it offers a lot of free Space - just scrap the Radioactive Barrels to make the "irradiated Zone" around the Pond to disappear. Also, it is pretty close to all the Mission Points erly on, from the Brotherhood to the Railroad. - Also, make haste to get a Contamination Arc build - it sets the Rads to 0 when walkingt through it when Active. This Game - even the whole Minutemen Arc - is about how important CVivilisation is, cooperating with others and working together. Sending out Scavengers for example will make the surrounding have less encounters, but add to the risk of Raider attacks (at least in my expe3rience). Mitigate that by a decent Defenbse Value. There is no need to Tower Defense the shit out of the Game, as that does usually not work - but having a Wall between the Settlement and the Raiders spawns is pretty good imho. Does not prevent or autosolve Attacks (you gotta take care or it is a loss), but it helps to take care of them a lot. I prefer to put my Guns in a central Spot where they can shoot at the Entrance from inside - to chokepoint the Raiders into it. Fuck the Settlers and Guards that run and seek to die, it is up to them to do so and you can not prevent it. Second best optiopn is to secure the Spawns with turrets - but that often resulted in a damaged Turretarray for me while "Tanking Settlers and DDing Turrets" was the cheapest, most viable Way. Finally, build Merchants. That is your Goal - Arms and Ammunitions Dealers in your Bases. They may Share one Inventory, but provide a good Supply of Ammo for "free" aka your produced purified Water.

Keep all pre-war money, cigar boxes and cigarette boxes on you for bartering. They can be easily found off of Ghouls or in most places that have cigarette dispensers. Most raider settlements will have a lot laying around. They are a good alternative for those who are lacking the caps. Pre-war money doesn't have any weight so you can carry as much of it on you as you want. All of them are under the Junk tab so make sure you collect them from your settlements in case you stored them accidentally.

Got one more tip to add when your fusion cores are about to run out replace them as you can still get a good price for them even with 1% charge left but if u don’t it will automatically replace it

My *_TOP TIPS_* (especially _Survival Mode_ )---> --> _Codsworth_ is available as a companion without first needing to free *Preston* . Simply enter _Concord_ far enough that Preston and the Raiders start fighting, return to Sanctuary, and he can be hired. Taking him along to free *Preston* can give some _affinity boosts_ . _Codsworth_ will give you a Purified Water on a continual basis just by talking with him, making him a solid companion for _Survival Players_ . --> *_Need Caps?_* Stop at nearby *Abernathy Farm* , under the Power Pylon. Grab the 9 Melons, then speak with the daughter _Lucy_ . Keep picking the top dialogue choice about caps as currency. This will trigger an Easy speech check, and she will offer to buy Melons for 5 caps instead of 3. She can buy every Melon you have, on an ongoing basis, which can be lucrative if you turn Sanctuary into a Melon farm. However, if you make the Farm a settlement, she stops buying them. --> *_Survival Players_* , besides planting *Tato* , *Mutfruit* and *Corn* for _Adhesive_ , plant *Razorgrain* . Cook *1 Razorgrain /1 Dirty Water* to make rad-free _Noodle Cups_ . They lower thirst one level, and hunger half a level. Check wandering vendor _Trashcan Carla_ and _Trudy at Drumlin Diner_ , South of Concord. Or find randomly as loot. --> *_Weapon and Armor modifications_* can be _stripped and swapped_ onto your better gear. You can _remove armor mods_ for free, but you will have to _build a new gun mod_ from components. Even without Gun Nut, you can build the base level gun mod, which will put the previously attached modification into your inventory, and put onto your new hotness. --> _Survival Players_ should build *15 more water supply than they have settlers* , minimum. Take out the water from the Workshop *every day* , and store it separately in another container. New Purified Water will be added every day *_if_* there’s little to no water already in the workshop. If you build a large enough water purification operation, a huge amount can get added daily. Use this for your travels, or stockpile, and sell the surplus. --> _Survival Mode_ features *Diseases* , acquired numerous ways. You can take *Antibiotics* , visit a *Doctor* , or *wait* until they go away eventually. Each disease has _different durations_ , lasting from *2-7 days* . The most debilitating are _Weakness_ (receive +20% damage), and _Infection_ (take damage over time, though it won’t kill you, will leave you with a sliver of health). These two diseases take *2.5 days* to go away. Find something safe to do, like decorating Sanctuary, or sleep it off. Sleeping causes a _disease check_ , so you might get sick again, but anything is better than Weakness or Infection. *Early game* , when resources are tight, you might be better off saving Antibiotics just in case for the debilitating diseases, and living with the others until they go away. -->Want to play _Survival Mode_ , but aren’t sure what starting SPECIAL to use? I’ve found the first 10-12 levels to be the hardest, and it’s worth going for strong combat skills first, and then flesh out your build. *Melee Builds* , get _Rooted_ (STR9) and _Blitz_ (AGI9) immediately. *9,1,4,3,1,9,1* _(Book END)_ . *VATS Guns* get _Penetrator_ (PER9) and _Concentrated Fire_ (PER10). *1,9,3,3,3,7,2* _(Book AGI)_ . You’ll get the *Perception Bobblehead* when you free Preston, so have a point saved, and put into Concentrated Fire mid-rescue. --> _Survival Mode_ players should seriously consider not using Power Armor. _Swimming_ is Survival’s Fast Travel. You’ll get around much faster and safer. *_Aquaboy/girl perk_* will save you a ton of time! Without spoiling, the game gives you a quick means of crossing the map as you do the main story, if you dabble with the *Brotherhood of Steel* . --> _New Players_ : *Idiot Savant* isn’t a good choice for first timers. Enemies scale with you. You need to have good gear to survive, and easy and fast XP can leave you without enough time to explore and find good gear before the bad guys start hitting even harder. *You’ll get plenty of levels, faster than you think, even at 1 INT* . Growing powerful isn’t only a matter of levels. Having 1 INT will give you plenty of time to find what you need to survive. *You’ll be stronger if you have great gear when you pop your next level*. Take it easy, don’t rush, go slow, and you’ll be better for it. --> _Pass every speech check_ with *11 CHR* , 100%! Low CHR builds, don’t fret: assemble a 3-piece _CHR set of clothes_ . *Hat/glasses/suit* , for _+4_ . Most *Alcohol* adds _+1_ . Find *Daytripper* _+3_ . Better yet, craft *Grape Mentats* at a Chemistry Station _+5_ . There’s other ways, but with these, that’s a +13 buff already. *Bonus!* Your companion will come to your side and stay there if you crouch.

unfortunately the game looks exactly the same atleast on ultra settings and im getting about 8-10 less fps everywhere i already went back to old version for mod support

Lol. The cryo sneak never worked before. Thanks for the info. Lol worked perfectly 👍

Great work. I love your videos and after 10 years of Fallout 4, I still learned things.

Any chance you'll drop a video on some of the new content? I already got me a character ready - heck, she hasn't even entered Vault 111 and I quick saved after I finished making her - and I already know most of the tricks you've listed thus far. Sorry to sound impatient btw, I just want to know what this update is bringing to the table for us vanilla players.

Depends on what System you play. The Next Gen Update is in my opinion a Next Gen thing for consoles, not for PC. On consoles you can play in 4k or 60 fps on lower resolutions with it. On PC it´s only an unstable widescreen fix. Yes, there is a bit of "new" content, but to be honest - if you have the pre Update build and play on PC, change the update method on Steam/GOG... to only update by starting the game, install the Fallout 4 Script Extender, and start the game via the Script Extender launcher. That only works if you haven´t updated the game already. Why? The update is unstable for now and even if you want to play a vanilla walkthrough, I would install some bug-fixing-mods. This update won´t fix most of them. I reinstalled F4 and the ESO modpack 2 weeks ago. This modpack wouldn´t work anymore, if I updated the game. But with this pre-update F4 build, I have much more content, than the update could ever provide.

15:51 "excuse me sir, please get wrecked" your mama raised you well, so polite.

For survival, remember to grab all the cola/beer/milk bottles in Sanctuary, you can haul back to vault 111 and fill them all in the sink. That's a pretty easy and reliable way to get purified water, both for consumption and selling to vendors. And if you get advanced lockpicking in the earliest levels, you get access to a bunch of the safes in both Sanctuary and Concord, as well as a locked room in the Speakeasy with a steamer trunk, ammo and potentially a shotgun.

That's the best tutorial for start I have seen. Would be great if you do next part 😁

IIRC, the book can increase the stat if you reduce it first with something other than addiction. I increase my INT into 12 with it. Put 10 int at start, get any alcohol to reduce int and take the book immediately, the book get to 11 int, then get the booblehead to 12 int. Addiction reduction effect wont help with this.

There are also some spots east of Abernathy Farm. Center the boulders left of the Power Line Tower when facing East, you'll find a skeleton and suitcase; along with a machete. Just East of that same Tower, you'll find an open safe, similar to the one near the Water Tower; situated just under the boulder cliff, with a pistol and ammo box within.

@@oliverterry5941 tbh, at this point builds won’t matter, all my specials are 10, all the perk req for weapons and armor crafting done, so are weapons expertise, but you can role play as certain character by deliberately leaving some areas weak, ex: my BOS Character is go big and loud so I didn’t pick any stealth perks. Btw in survival scaling enemies are very dangerous, there are critters in Nuka world and far harbor that would one shot my character even if I’m lvl 160 overpowered.

Idk if it's a new update thing, but before leaving the vault u can loot the boxes and lockers by the vault entrance and u can get a bunch of vault suits and one that says "new" and I got 6 utility vault jumpsuits the same bonus as reg ones but it gives u plus one in perception and intelligence

lucy is my favorite. I must say dayum i knew lots of these but i learned a bunch more! thanks. cannot believe after all this time i am still learning more about this game.

Don’t forget there’s new vault suits in the vault 111

Lucy is actually pretty great. I've seen the actress before in things like Yellowjackets and she was okay. But in this, there's something about her babe in the woods vibe that's just perfect. She's a great vehicle to show the naive innocence of Vault dwellers and turning into us in the game through her suffering. She's nowhere near a badass yet but she's well on her way. And she's beautiful. She's like John McClane (wink wink, distant relative?) The more dirty and bloody she gets, the better she looks.

If you go to Abernathy farm you can get a quest for a lock it inside of the satellite array it gives you some extra XP and tabs for just having a conversation

If you get the book to create statues from the building where your get shiskabob and duplicate copper you get 30xp per placement and can get to level 200 in like 3-4 hours (witch is accessible from level one. Just need to run and avoid some enemies and your smooth sailing)

Why does everyone leave the switchblade in the terminal in the pod? Seriously, it may be a really weak weapon, but scrapping it gives you decent scrap, and it's a sellable item early game.

Lucy's brother Norm is my favorite. It's starting as a level 0 leave it beaver type, but working up to that stealth sniper that is in all of us.

Ive been cloning stacks of rare materials like nuclear material, nuka nukes, ammo, building materials. Its insane especially when you start cloning your clones.

14:40 The only thing I would say you didn't point out is that right next to the nuke on the table is a white magazine that permanently increases your stealth. Another tip I would add is to always make sure any settlements have way more water production than they need. That way anytime you stop by a settlement, you can rob them of the 100 or so purified water in their workbench, which you can either use as an unlimited stimpack or sell for some nice profit.

It is highly dependent on your luck (not in game luck) and intelligence level, the higher your intelligence the less likely that idiot savant will trigger, at 10 intelligence it’s is lower than one percent, and if you max it out then it will be less effective at giving xp, it is more or less a gamble, or you have no life at all and just reload a save for it to trigger on everything (very much so not recommended, check out a video where some guy tries to play fallout 4 on that one island off the coast)

Funny thing with the SPECIAL book in sanctuary. If you put your INT on 10 and get first into the root cellar and grab a alcoholic drink, you lower your INT by 1. You can now get the SPECIAL book and increase your INT by 1 which makes it into 11 after the alcohol wears off. Makes it another 3% more xp. Pretty handy.
