Forum:Can I borrow someones close range character build?

I want to try to play melee/1h guns but I don't know what skill, perks to invest in, so just please post the best ones for this build.

not part of my request but do I have to do NCR missions to finish the game with legion or house?

You need a lot of strength and endurance (endurance because close combat is always a bit more dangerous then normal combat), I'd keep charisma at 5 if I were you (or at 4 and buy an implant), a high intelligence, because every character needs a high intelligence, then a low agility(note that a low agility does make your reloading slower), low perception (who needs to sense an enemy from far away if they want to hit him in the face!?!) and low luck and you don't need to do quests for the NCR, silly ~ YesMan
