as you asked for comments and additions - here what I have noted: 1:55 Adrenaline: one star already gives you 36% damage, for max damage you can go 5 star, but 1 star is already a good investment 4:48 Cannibal: fun fact - you get this card for free on Rose's quest if you don't have it already, gives you also unique dialog when dealing with the cannibals at Mountainside Bed & Breakfast 5:41 Contractor: also works on blueprinted crops in case you want to build a mega farm 7:58 Dodgy: great perk for Non-VATS builds as 30% damage reduction stacks with other percent based reductions 8:19 Enforcer: great perk for the peppershaker (counts as shotgun and heavy weapon) for making the queen land 8:33 Escape Artist: completly removes the penality for moving, no difference anymore between light/medium/heavy armor with this perk 10:18 Four Leaf Clover: if they haven't changed it the chance is calculated for each hit, so this is great for multi-hit weapons like shotguns 12:44 Ground Pounder: description is misleading, as it also works for non-automatic rifles 13:06 Gun Fu: you take it for the target switching not the damage, great for multiple targets, but as you don't leave VATS you can't regenerate AP between kills 14:59 Happy-Go-Lucky: needed for niche VATS power armor builds who want to crit every other shot as you don't have access to the Unyielding effect for stacking luck 18:43 Light Footed: useful for trap camps, just sneak and you can not trigger punji boards etc. 21:44 Mystery Meat: useful for carnivore melee builds as this gives you passively rare meats that you can cook for more damage/stats 24:05 Portable Power: good card for collecting scrip as most legendary enemies tend to drop power armor parts (atleast for me) 24:31 Pain Train: useful perk if you still have to do the "kill 1100 robots with no weapon" challenge as sprinting kills the respawning whitesprings robots with one hit 30:42 Sneak: actually not very useful for a Bloodied Sneak build as the extra Agility from Unyielding already gives you enough stealth making the perk somewhat obsolete 31:17 Squad Maneuvers: useless perk if you already have the Speed Demon mutation as the muatation already maxes out you movement speed 34:43 Team Medic: very good shared perk card as when you share this card everyone (including you) gets healed if any team member uses an stimpack 35:02 Tenderizer: great because its a debuff on the enemy, so the damage bonus gets calculated multiplicatively instead of additively making this better than other damage buffs 37:52 Good With Salt: great for preparing food or collecting flux, -90% spoil rate means food is 10 times longer fresh, the refrigerator in comparision only has -50% spoil rate so only doubles food freshness 40:34 Electric Absorption: great for doing silos or the encryptid event, with this perk laser turrets and assaultrons heal you instead of doing damage 41:07 Funky Duds: a wasted legendary perk, just getting two armor pieces with +25 poison resist is usually enough, became somewhat useless with the introduction of union power armor as it has innate poison resist

I'd say maxed out Funky Duds isn't a waste. Two armor pieces gets you the same as _one_ rank of FD. This level of PR doesn't completely eliminate poison damage -- it slows it down, but you will still take damage. Once you get to rank 2 or 3 you can even start tanking the Mirelurk Queen's poison. At max rank you can sit on the poison drops in Daily Ops and never worry about your life dipping.

@@romxxii I only need poison damage to be slowed down to counter the damage with Born Survivor triggered stimpacks. And for Daily Ops I use my Union Power Armor which has built-in 150 poison resist which is equal to 3 star Funky Duds. So I rather use the legendary perk slot for another useful legendary perk or just another Legendary SPECIAL perk, for 5 extra attribute points and 5 extra perks.

IMHO if you're using food of any kind, Good with Salt is essential _maxed._ No, you can't just use a freezer backpack mod. The reason? If someone joins your public team and shares Good with Salt 1, that will override the spoil rate of your freezer mod, and before you know it all your food has spoiled. So I never unequip Good With Salt 3.

@grimmy02 Жыл бұрын
I agree with most of this but I do have a couple of different opinions: 1) Master Infiltrator is great, but low level players are going to have difficulty getting it for a while, so the Hacker and Picklock perk cards will be necessary until a certain level (and can be scrapped later to get perk points, which are necessary to obtain legendary perk cards anyway). 2) Electric Absorption is awesome! It prevents you from dying as long as you are taking hits from energy weapons, if you are in power armor. I can just stand there and laugh at assaultrons while they try to incinerate me with their laser beams, which usually instakill me otherwise. Plus, it recharges your fusion core, making it last longer. You could potentially make one fusion core last forever with this card, and you don't even need the card maxed out.
@romxxii
Жыл бұрын
Electric Absorption is god-tier for PA builds. You're basically invulnerable during fights with lots of super mutants and robots. The only way you're dying in Encryptid is if you're tanking all 3 pylons. Plus, you don't have to carry a bajillion fusion cores anymore. I even let the bug that doesn't fully drain fusion cores happen, so that I can top partially-drained cores later by chilling next to the super mutants at the West Tek entrance.

Adamantium skeleton - handy for melee non-PA, mostly on some fights like Collosal Problem - constant limb damage... but you can mitigate with vampiric weapon, like automatic melee weapons. Cola Nut - can be used with increased cola availability now - can restore AP but also HP and or Rads but without the stimpak animation/lockout. Some use this and drop stimpaks / carrying most chems to have only food weight reduction or alike. Friendly Fire - fire modded bows, crossbows, chainsaw or autoaxe will also heal NPCs as well. Bow/Crossbow fire has some range to it so it can heal when you actually killing an enemy near NPC. Happy-Go-Luck - not related directly to this perk card but low health UNY builds tend to use very high luck to quickly fill VATS critical meter, like every second attack ;) Which is the key to DPS for vats critical build. Ironclad - if you have around 350 armor or more it's pointless :) Iron Fist - it applies to unarmed weapons and it's the only weapon category to have only one 3-perk card instead of three of 9 perk in total. Unarmed and 2h-melee are the most meta right now. Mysterious Strangers - really bad, but sometimes for the meme for other to see it :) Savior can trigger only if you don't auto-die (when you can call for help) while the other one deals nearly no damage. I'm waiting when we get a daily to take a picture of Mysterious Stranger. Psychopath - if you are low health UNY you get critical bar near instantly while Luck is taken by other better/essential cards Revenant - some use it pre-boss to do sweaty DPS, Scout Banners also give an effect to revive on your own so no need for a team to force-trigger it. It's niche. Ricochet - can be used for vampiric weapon builds as anything it triggers will also trigger weapon vampiric effect. Good for low health melee builds using auto-melee vampiric weapons. With some luck you can AFK and even few enemies won't kill you...

Awesome video I wanted to check out. I mostly agreed on 99% of the perks. I will say alot of the repair and craft perks mostly fit onto one build I usually swap out the max repair armor and weapon for either 5 point melee or guns one as necessary but if you can afford the slot or buy an extra it saves me an immense amount of time going between events having a dedicated build I can just swap in or out of and not waste too much time.
@shadowjc-gn5fj Жыл бұрын
Some of the perks aren't good by themselves but paired can be very beneficial. Cola nut and party boy both effect nuka dark which increases endurance for high health builds. Add nuka cranberry for the extra xp and it completely erases the need for aid as quantum completely heals, grape removes all rads with 1 use, orange for rad resist. Others like the rifleman depend on the type of weapon. Enclave flamer definitely compete with command builds but only have a range disadvantage. The other is the pepper shaker for heavy gunners as it uses both shotgunner and heavy gunner perks but to get the full effect needs a team to share the missing perks for maxed effect.

26:19 Psychopath: It might look good in theory, but there are too many variables for how low of a chance it is. Not only do you only have a max of 15% chance, but it only has the possibility to proc if the enemy dies while you are actively in VATS mode. This means if they happen to die right afterwards if you run out of AP or if someone snags the kill while you are reloading, the card doesn't even get a chance to be used. Since there are so many good perk cards under Luck, almost ALL of which are necessary for VATS crit builds, this card just falls far too short due to such a low percentage chance to proc.

Something I've noticed is that the Perk Cards are in alphabetical order.... until they're not. There's another section after that with another 2 dozen or so cards in sort of order.

as you asked for comments and additions - here what I have noted: 1:55 Adrenaline: one star already gives you 36% damage, for max damage you can go 5 star, but 1 star is already a good investment 4:48 Cannibal: fun fact - you get this card for free on Rose's quest if you don't have it already, gives you also unique dialog when dealing with the cannibals at Mountainside Bed & Breakfast 5:41 Contractor: also works on blueprinted crops in case you want to build a mega farm 7:58 Dodgy: great perk for Non-VATS builds as 30% damage reduction stacks with other percent based reductions 8:19 Enforcer: great perk for the peppershaker (counts as shotgun and heavy weapon) for making the queen land 8:33 Escape Artist: completly removes the penality for moving, no difference anymore between light/medium/heavy armor with this perk 10:18 Four Leaf Clover: if they haven't changed it the chance is calculated for each hit, so this is great for multi-hit weapons like shotguns 12:44 Ground Pounder: description is misleading, as it also works for non-automatic rifles 13:06 Gun Fu: you take it for the target switching not the damage, great for multiple targets, but as you don't leave VATS you can't regenerate AP between kills 14:59 Happy-Go-Lucky: needed for niche VATS power armor builds who want to crit every other shot as you don't have access to the Unyielding effect for stacking luck 18:43 Light Footed: useful for trap camps, just sneak and you can not trigger punji boards etc. 21:44 Mystery Meat: useful for carnivore melee builds as this gives you passively rare meats that you can cook for more damage/stats 24:05 Portable Power: good card for collecting scrip as most legendary enemies tend to drop power armor parts (atleast for me) 24:31 Pain Train: useful perk if you still have to do the "kill 1100 robots with no weapon" challenge as sprinting kills the respawning whitesprings robots with one hit 30:42 Sneak: actually not very useful for a Bloodied Sneak build as the extra Agility from Unyielding already gives you enough stealth making the perk somewhat obsolete 31:17 Squad Maneuvers: useless perk if you already have the Speed Demon mutation as the muatation already maxes out you movement speed 34:43 Team Medic: very good shared perk card as when you share this card everyone (including you) gets healed if any team member uses an stimpack 35:02 Tenderizer: great because its a debuff on the enemy, so the damage bonus gets calculated multiplicatively instead of additively making this better than other damage buffs 37:52 Good With Salt: great for preparing food or collecting flux, -90% spoil rate means food is 10 times longer fresh, the refrigerator in comparision only has -50% spoil rate so only doubles food freshness 40:34 Electric Absorption: great for doing silos or the encryptid event, with this perk laser turrets and assaultrons heal you instead of doing damage 41:07 Funky Duds: a wasted legendary perk, just getting two armor pieces with +25 poison resist is usually enough, became somewhat useless with the introduction of union power armor as it has innate poison resist

This level of PR doesn't completely eliminate poison damage -- it slows it down, but you will still take damage. Once you get to rank 2 or 3 you can even start tanking the Mirelurk Queen's poison. At max rank you can sit on the poison drops in Daily Ops and never worry about your life dipping.

Totally not me using the perk makes it easier to find ammo in containers, never being able to get under 500 of any ammo at any given moment, some even getting to the point I have to store massive amounts of ammo even with *MAXIMUM* ammo weight reduction. Crafting ammo is completely pointless now...
I agree with most of this but I do have a couple of different opinions: 1) Master Infiltrator is great, but low level players are going to have difficulty getting it for a while, so the Hacker and Picklock perk cards will be necessary until a certain level (and can be scrapped later to get perk points, which are necessary to obtain legendary perk cards anyway). 2) Electric Absorption is awesome! It prevents you from dying as long as you are taking hits from energy weapons, if you are in power armor. I can just stand there and laugh at assaultrons while they try to incinerate me with their laser beams, which usually instakill me otherwise. Plus, it recharges your fusion core, making it last longer. You could potentially make one fusion core last forever with this card, and you don't even need the card maxed out.
@romxxii
Жыл бұрын
Electric Absorption is god-tier for PA builds. You're basically invulnerable during fights with lots of super mutants and robots. The only way you're dying in Encryptid is if you're tanking all 3 pylons. Plus, you don't have to carry a bajillion fusion cores anymore. I even let the bug that doesn't fully drain fusion cores happen, so that I can top partially-drained cores later by chilling next to the super mutants at the West Tek entrance.

Adamantium skeleton - handy for melee non-PA, mostly on some fights like Collosal Problem - constant limb damage... but you can mitigate with vampiric weapon, like automatic melee weapons. Cola Nut - can be used with increased cola availability now - can restore AP but also HP and or Rads but without the stimpak animation/lockout. Some use this and drop stimpaks / carrying most chems to have only food weight reduction or alike. Friendly Fire - fire modded bows, crossbows, chainsaw or autoaxe will also heal NPCs as well. Bow/Crossbow fire has some range to it so it can heal when you actually killing an enemy near NPC. Happy-Go-Luck - not related directly to this perk card but low health UNY builds tend to use very high luck to quickly fill VATS critical meter, like every second attack ;) Which is the key to DPS for vats critical build. Ironclad - if you have around 350 armor or more it's pointless :) Iron Fist - it applies to unarmed weapons and it's the only weapon category to have only one 3-perk card instead of three of 9 perk in total. Unarmed and 2h-melee are the most meta right now. Mysterious Strangers - really bad, but sometimes for the meme for other to see it :) Savior can trigger only if you don't auto-die (when you can call for help) while the other one deals nearly no damage. I'm waiting when we get a daily to take a picture of Mysterious Stranger. Psychopath - if you are low health UNY you get critical bar near instantly while Luck is taken by other better/essential cards Revenant - some use it pre-boss to do sweaty DPS, Scout Banners also give an effect to revive on your own so no need for a team to force-trigger it. It's niche. Ricochet - can be used for vampiric weapon builds as anything it triggers will also trigger weapon vampiric effect. Good for low health melee builds using auto-melee vampiric weapons. With some luck you can AFK and even few enemies won't kill you...

I've found adamantium skeleton *GREATLY* reduced my damage in gun fights aswell.
Awesome video I wanted to check out. I mostly agreed on 99% of the perks. I will say alot of the repair and craft perks mostly fit onto one build I usually swap out the max repair armor and weapon for either 5 point melee or guns one as necessary but if you can afford the slot or buy an extra it saves me an immense amount of time going between events having a dedicated build I can just swap in or out of and not waste too much time.
Some of the perks aren't good by themselves but paired can be very beneficial. Cola nut and party boy both effect nuka dark which increases endurance for high health builds. Add nuka cranberry for the extra xp and it completely erases the need for aid as quantum completely heals, grape removes all rads with 1 use, orange for rad resist. Others like the rifleman depend on the type of weapon. Enclave flamer definitely compete with command builds but only have a range disadvantage. The other is the pepper shaker for heavy gunners as it uses both shotgunner and heavy gunner perks but to get the full effect needs a team to share the missing perks for maxed effect.
Pain train is God tier! I can one shot basic super mutants with it and little creatures low to the ground that are normally annoying to aim at like ants, dogs, rats etc. They just get stomped into oblivion, I can basically ignore them. Great for saving ammo on my MG42. I feel like it gets overlooked a lot. Also I kept a 3 star legendary glowing deathclaw almost perma-stunned with it

My main character on PC is a carnivore high health boxing build with bonuses to VATS crit, extremely high mobility, and explosive fists. It took some work to get it just right, but it was worth it. Not only is it fun to play and extremely strong, but they visual of this guy zooming across the battlefield into a flying punch to a scorchbeast has gotten me several compliments on my build.
Very concise, and found the pace very reasonable! (Besides, I know how to pause and re-play 😁) Always tuning in to your vids Amigo, thank you and keep em commin!
I appreciate your time you took to make the video and is useful for me
I know I need to embrace Atom's glow and start playing with mutations. Sneak/stealth builds feel invisible to most random mobs outside of mutated events/Ops, love it.
cola nut is preeeettty amazing if you managed to net yourself a collectron that can collect nuka cola for you, it basically replaces stims and radaway which you can then turn to caps.
If and when you go to update this video, put all of the cards together in their various categories such as all the agility together, all of the perception together alln etc. This way you may save sometime by having the level 1/2 / 3 cards together and then have the option to compare what one will do versus the other in a particular category
Class Freak isn't really necessary if you run a full unyielding set and are bloodied. Having the 3 extra perk points are better than the negation of penalties.

26:19 Psychopath: It might look good in theory, but there are too many variables for how low of a chance it is. Not only do you only have a max of 15% chance, but it only has the possibility to proc if the enemy dies while you are actively in VATS mode. This means if they happen to die right afterwards if you run out of AP or if someone snags the kill while you are reloading, the card doesn't even get a chance to be used. Since there are so many good perk cards under Luck, almost ALL of which are necessary for VATS crit builds, this card just falls far too short due to such a low percentage chance to proc.
Electric Absorbtion is great for nuke launch runs! Any enemy that uses laser weapons heals you and keeps your PA at full energy.

Something I've noticed is that the Perk Cards are in alphabetical order.... until they're not. There's another section after that with another 2 dozen or so cards in sort of order. Bethesda never incorporated them into the original list then suddenly said, "Oh, crap - forgot about these!!". That can really throw you if you don't see a card you need.

Electric Absorption is great when doing the missile silos while wearing PA, makes you immune to the turrets and most other attacks in there. Combined with a vampire weapon, it's a cake walk.
So ghoulish can really come in handy with bloodied builds for sure. If ypur legendary slots are taken up and you can't use what rads. It came in handy for me a couple times for sure.

Lucky break is very good on a knife build running both rhe 50% faster swing speed legendary and the perk for 30% faster swing speed. Even with makeshift warrior and 50% slower breaking legendary, it will still break very quickly, this helps the high dps (hundreds a swing swiging nearly twice a second) be viable without carrying around alot of knives
Im a new player. You say scattershot helps with range of the shotgun. How are we suppose to know this from the description on the card? It says weigh less and reload faster.

Thank you! You mentioned several times how easy it is to get purified water but didn't say how/why. I can never seem to keep more than 8 or so of them. 😵

Doing events and water coolers ;)
so, I can stack whichever Perk Cards I want to initialize and fill up each of the 7 slots? They don't have to stack in any particular order in their designated slot as long as they are in the slot I'm all good? Thanks (Level 6)
Subribed!! Great video. It was long but well worth it, exactly what I needed. Now I can finally stop picking worthless perks

Chainsaw and auto axe .. mixx Makeshift Warrior with Stable tools .. I honestly can't remember last time I needed to repair my chainsaw (and I main it)
Pain Train has one extremely specific use. Equip it at max rank and go do the Monster Mash event at Watoga high school.
Damn, dude, ghoulish is the best perk of all 😂 it the only one who can regenerate health, it`s main reason to have a card in the beginning
So Adamantium Skeleton is useful in a melee build.
Great vid. This was exactly what I was looking for!
Once again my friend you knock it out of the park thank you so much for your knowledge! For me it is priceless I am now going to become a member and join and become a nukaholic!!
Cannibal is a sweet perk with Vegetation mutation
I play a Sniper build and the rifleman perk cards maxed out with Longshot and Sniper perks all maxed out. Sneek And Covert Operative.
Hi! Thank you for this awesome video!! Do you have a video about rifleman builds? Thank you advance. 😊
Jak X soundtrack remix in the back lol
Im in your Video. Now im a Popstar 🎉🎉🎉 Nice Video 💪🏼💪🏼
No turrets? Now that's a hot take 🤣 N I swear by Richochet... not sure about the damage back at the attacker but atleast it procs constantly. Serendipity works good too
Bandileer is only useful if you carry ammo in thousands, not a perk for the new player
Watched this twice and will refer back probably. Thanks!

Thanks so much for watching! Glad I could help!
Honestly, for some reason this whole perk card thing was so overwhelming and confusing to me. But you simply referring to having all those extra cards “in my back pocket” is all it took to make the whole thing make sense to me… God I have such a monkey brain! 😅
Home defense is just a crafting perk at this point. Keep a maxed out one in your deck and pull it out if you need it.
How do you get legendary perk cards? Also how do you level up your weapon you plan on keeping for a while?
So if you don't like adamantium skeleton, how do you deal with being crippled in the middle of combat? Just stop shooting your gun and take a stem pack. Every time you get crippled, that's gonna get expensive for stem packs.

Honestly, I find so many stims I can barely get rid of them all.
Is starched genes really needed if you collect Nuka cola grape? I thought it cleared rads but not mutations. I have a character that got a mutation and use grape soda to keep his mutation.
Dodgy works it just sucks when it does in full combat if ur fighting something where u cant use stealth that perk becomes a nuisance that eats ur AP
i find damage cards 1 of each 3 card slots 30 damage . damage all sets 60 damage but 9 card slots for a guy jumping from weapon to weapon some times better to keep less . only do one 9 card damage if really needed . and Mysterious Savior only good if you got Escape Artist going
My question is why do perk card packs keep dropping after you have revealed them all? I’m level 425 and have all of the cards to level up from and don’t see why you need to keep opening perk packs. I’m I missing something? Great video, thanks!
Anything that say "part of team" doesn't really mean it has to be with other people by the way. Make your own solo and it works. Mutations too I've been finding out. Yea old news now probably lol
Pharma farma ,can do & the ammo scrounger ones are op. I never want for canned food or stimpacks
Speed demon mutation negates any reload perks or legendary effects

Not for heavy weapons, that one seems to work.
Wait is there a limit of S.P E C I A L points you get cause I want to make heavy gunner but I put 4 perception and if so what’s the limit?
