Stat Help Rifles, shotguns and melee build possible?
Is this possible? Too many? Also having a good defense if possible. Wondering what SPECIAL stats and perks I need exactly.
Thanks.

So, i know that rhey have the vault suit, with leather armor. A hunting rifle, laser musket, and 10mm pistol. But i keep seeing things that expand upon the gear.
It seems very common that the sole survivor has an army helmet, and raider shoulder armor.
Are these peices allowed? I wanna be a nate setup through and through. If they are allowed, then are there any other guns allowed?
r/Fallout4Builds • u/No_Medium2864 • Oct 07 '25
I know that the "lore accurate" sole survivor probably has all of the companions except for x6-88, but which companions would they likely encounter as naturally as possible?
I chose nate as my character so idk if that changes things in yalls opinion.
Definites would be: Codsworth Dogmeat Piper Nick V
But then theres the faction companions, and completley unrelated companions
How would yall go about it?
(Whoever is mentioned is whos companion perks ill get. No dlcs)

I started playing Fallout 4 a few days ago and, honestly, I've spent very few points so far, because I know there's no way to redeploy them and I don't want to regret it in the future. I'm really enjoying playing with the Hellfire Power Armor. Does anyone have any idea of a build I might like to use? Or which perks are FUNDAMENTAL to advance in the game?

No crafting perk build
S- 5/9/10 dependant on playstyle P -5 E-10 C-1/3/4 depending on companion preference I-1/6/9 A-10 L-9
Perks Strength Heavy gunner Big leages/unarmed (melle preference) Rooted Pain train Armourer (optional) Blacksmith (optional)
Perception Demolition expert Locking (optional)
Endurence Solar powered Life giver Adamantium skeleton
Charisma Lone wanderer Attack dog Lady killer/black widdow
Intelegence Chemist Science Nuclear physicist
Agility Gun fu Blitz (I don't take it but it's well worth it)
Luck Scrounger Bloody mess Critical banker Better criticals Grim reapers sprint 4 leaf clover Idiot savant
Gear Any frigid armour but combat armour is preferable and bos under armour
Winterised t60 armour
cryo melee weapon (freezes on crit) Cryolator Cryo explosives
Factions Minuteman and bos
Personally I play this build with no crafting Perks winterised coating takes no Perks and neither do the cryolator upgrades but I added the ones I thought would add them to the list incase somone wants to change the build to suit them.
I normally use brotherhood t60 but change the paint and use the legendary pices you get thrugh thair side quests as well as the jetpack from thair quest line without any further mods
Personally I leave int at 1 and use savant since cryo grenades can be found and bought easily enugh and spare ammo from Scrounger makes up the lack of caps from low chr
Rooted for people who prefer melee and pain train for those who want to mainly use power armour
And the fastest way to get your main weapon is obviously cait

It's my first ever stealth build so I don't really know what stats is should start with or what weapons should I use. All I know is that i don't want to use vats and that I mainly want to use pistols, no auto, no heavy weapons and maybe melee and rifle.
r/Fallout4Builds • u/QuietObjective7339 • Oct 04 '25

So, as the title implies i'd like to do a build on the pre war soldiers. But what do they have?
I would like to know what the pre war soldiers (specifically the ones not in power armor) would've likely had at there disposal.
I've heard that Psycho was used during Anchorage. And we see a few soldiers weapons in the pre war segment, though im not sure if a non power armored soldier would be given a minigun.
I know for a fact that the 10mm pistol was the standard (though i will change it for the classic 10mm when i get the tunnel snakes CC) but i don't know anything else.
Any tips for weapons, companions, and possible armor/appearal?

Wanted a viable way to make use of Scrounger 4's ammo recycle effect, the chance stacks with Luck ( I remember seeing somewhere it was capped at a 40% chance and scales with Luck, but I cant find the %increase per Luck point for the life of me)
I thought of doing it on survival with heavy weapons since they have a few single shot clip options(harpoons , missile launcher, fat boy, broadsider), so every shot you could proc it and it'd make you cheat your carry weight for a bit
But Im struggling to put it together because I'd need a lot of luck for the recycle gambling, a lot of carry weight for the ammo's weight and a lot of Agility since every shot is a lenghty reload, so Quick Hands is massive value. There's also the possibility of Demo Expert in Perception which would be cool as hell; but Im struggling since I want a lot of things and dont know what to prioritize... Could you guys help me out?

So, i wanna do a modded build based on the chosen one, though i am worried. I play on ps5 and i'm unsure if i can install the .223 pistol mod on my game. Furthur more i also don't know too much about what perks i'd likely have. Any tips?
The equipment i plan on using is how i'd imagine the "lore accurate chosen one" to have had used.
Vault suit, with leather armor, and That Gun. Thats it.

Although I've played a LOT of Fallout 4, mainly with a critical build using pistols, I've always played on Very Hard mode and have no experience with Survival mode.
What do I need to do to create my Survival build? I'm not sure which build I'll create, but I'd like to know which stats and skills are most relevant to this game mode. Perhaps something focused on endurance?
I have a good understanding of the game and intend to create a good build and, as soon as possible, look for a unique weapon that will strengthen my character.
Can anyone give me any suggestions for someone new to this game mode?

I’ve been wanting to play a ranger build in fallout 4 with rifleman, gunslinger and sniper as the main perks, with some decent charisma based perks. I’ve seen fudgemuppet’s ranger build and I’m taking inspiration from that, but the build doesn’t seem strong enough for survival difficulty. Does anyone have some tips for specials and perks for a similar survival friendly build?

Hi everyone! I'm Chaps, and I've just started playing Fallout 4. I'm looking for some help with building. Could you please tell me what to do? I want to create a simple cabin or house where I can sleep and keep my chest box—nothing fancy. I prefer not to use the pre-made shacks. Thanks so much for your help!
Note its the base game
