Forum:Sneak/Stealth build

Ok so i want to make a sneak/stealth character (NO DLC) i kneed to know what to set for my S.P.E.C.I.A.L. and TAG skills, where to add skills points at each level up(i do plan on getting skill books), and what perks to choose and when. weapon suggestions could be useful to. remember i have no DLC.

 * Tag Melee Weapons, Sneak, and probably Lockpick. Use Melee Weapons, wear Recon Armor. Silenced 10mm is a waste on harder difficulties, but on lower ones, you could use it... Nitty Tok. 00:14, June 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * Ok, without DLC and a little patience, you can easily max out all skills. Try not to raise any stats above 60, have an intelligence of at least 6, get the Comprehension and Educated perks. After most skills are at 60 and you reach the final level, start collecting and using skill books. You get pretty much 50 skill points per skill for all the skill books.
 * For sneaky classes, you definitely want Silent Running, Ninja, maybe Paralyzing Palm, a high unarmed/melee/sneak. You don't really need Charisma, so set that to about 2, Intelligence should be about 6, Agility should be 7 or 8, Endurance, Luck, Strength, Perception should be 5 or 6. 67.174.95.30 01:56, June 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * Get the Reservist's Rifle or Victory Rifle for long shot sneaky moves. Jimbo2go 10:22, June 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * What about weapons? God damn ghouls 00:44, June 2, 2010 (UTC)
 * Silenced 10mm Pistol, some type of sniper rifle (see above) combat knife, frag grenades for getting rid of a bunch of raiders at a time. Not sure what type of armour you should get, i generally just use what I can find, something with a small guns increase or whatever. Also, the Shady hat, I can't remember where you get this, maybe Moira Brown? but adds +5 to sneak. Jimbo2go 03:16, June 2, 2010 (UTC)
 * why the combat knife? and i was planning on using recon armor, lucky shades, and poplars hood. Silenced 10mm and victory rifle for guns with terrible shotgun or xulong for backup. and yes you get the hat from moira God damn ghouls 01:38, June 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * Well the combat knife is RP purposes. Every good assassin should have a knife for slitting the throats of the unweary. Jimbo2go 11:10, June 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * more perk tips would be helpful God damn ghouls 23:29, June 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * For sneaky armor may i suggest recon armor and the hood you get from the prophet in oasis, add the ghoul mask and thats my sneak class, the hood and 5 (i think) and the armor may add to it too. Its light but with alright DR so it won't interfere with sneak but you will still not die too easy. The mask will stop ghouls going at you so they won't mess you your sneak either.

Mister Sandman, Silent Running, Better Criticals, Ninja and Finesse are juicy perks for a sneaky character. I also recommend Grim Reaper's Sprint, Robotics Expert and Light Step. I know you don't have any DLC, but I very highly suggest Broken Steel. Seriously, get it. And Operation Anchorage for the Chinese Stealth Armor. For equipment, here are my recommendations:

Weapons: Combat Knife/Trench Knife, Sniper Rifle, Frag Mines/Grenades (for Shady Sands Shuffle), Dart Gun (silent, cripples legs, does decent poison damage), Shishkebab.

Apparel: Recon Armor, Poplar's Hood, Lucky Shades. If you buy Operation: Anchorage, use the Chinese Stealth Armor (you can use a glitch with this to simultaneously equip the Shady Hat for a +15 Sneak bonus). If you buy Broken Steel, use Lag-Bolt's Shades.

Hope this helps. =) Telos 03:53, July 11, 2010 (UTC)
