Hello
I'm Fiery (add random suffix if it has been taken). I'm 22 years old, live in Sweden and have been a gamer most of my life. I used to make various fallout builds to test different aspects of the game, and new content for the DLCs, but now it's reached the point when you can take all perks that are vaguely intresting for your playstyle, so I've made a build that personifies my favorite New Vegas playstyle.

My New Vegas Character
Build Name: Igneus (Test of Concept)

I have a perfect build in my head, but theory and pratice is very different sometimes, this will be a test build where I try my ideal character and if I discover that some aspect of it don't work, it'll be changed for the final version. Also, I want it to be a Logan's Loophole character, because I see it as the true hardcore mode of FO:NV as you lose 20 levels.
 * Builds' Purpose:


 * Choices of Intrest (Spoiler alert)
 * Mojave: Igneus has no empathy, human life has no value to him, he supports the Legion. He agrees with their philosophy of rewarding the strong while punishing the weak.
 * Igneus used his team as if they were tools, to be used and discarded. He killed them when they lost their usefulness.
 * Joshua Graham was an enemy of the Legion, Igneus ended his resistance with a bullet to the brain. Leaving the White Legs to conquer Zion.
 * The Think Tank may have had brilliant minds, but their childish temper annoyed Igneus and when their defenses were down he took the chance to end them.
 * Igneus left ED-E behind, he fought Ulysses and sent a nuclear missile flying toward the Long 15.
 * Game details: Fallout New Vegas on Xbox 360, patch 1.4 with all DLCs.
 * Starting SPECIALs: 7 str, 5 per, 7 end, 1 chr, 6 int, 5 agi, 9 lck.
 * New Vegas Clinic Implants: Not Chr or Regen, all others.
 * Traits:
 * Trait 1 - Skilled
 * Trait 2 - Logan's Loophole
 * Trait Reselect - Built to Destroy, Logan's Loophole.
 * Tags of Note: Survival.
 * Skills: All-purpose character, primarily using Gehenna for melee and Christine's cos silencer rifle for long range. Ideal Skill levels should be.

Ideal Equipment:
 * Body Armor:Elite Riot Gear - 22DT, 23 Wg, good looks, +5% Crit, medium.
 * Head slot:Ulysses' mask - 50 Radiation Resistance, 3 DT, 1 Wg and lets you see your hair!.
 * Primary Weapon: Gehenna - Decent weapon, but then you add Piercing Strikes, Pyromaniac, Elijah's Ramblings and various consumables and it's super powerful.
 * Secondary Weapon: Christine's COS silencer rifle - Sniper Rifle with x2.5 crit multiplier and silenced by default.

Notes and Observations:
 * SPECIAL reasoning: 7 Str plus implant plus Reinforced Spine means 10 Str. 5 Per plus implant allows Better Criticals. 7 End plus implant allows all implants, except Chr and regen. 1 Chr because I don't use any perk needing it, if I suddenly need high Chr I'll take a Party Time Mentant (+5) and a Beer(+3 with high survival skill). 6 Int plus implant allows Voracious Reader. 5 Agi plus implant allows Silent Running. I put all "spare" points into luck because it affects that unseen variable: Random Number Generation, which decides what loot we find in containers, how often we win at gambling and our base critical strike chance.
 * Trait Reasoning: Skilled is bugged, so if it's deselected I won't lose the skills, so I will replace it when I get the chance. Logan's Loophole is the best trait, with the greatest penalty, I see it as the real hardcore mode as you lose 20 levels, on the plus side the bonus is bugged and doubles all consumable durations (magazines, stealth boys, food etc.) also, the bonus is added consecutive which means Logan's Loophole + Chemist + Day Tripper = +524% duration combined. At the Sink I'll switch Skilled for Built to Destroy, for an extra 3% crit chance.
 * Wasteland Priorities: 1) Get New Vegas Clinic Implants. 2) Complete various quests or collect skill books. 3) When you feel confident enough, play through the DLCs. I intend to do them HH>DM>OWB>LR. 4) Enjoy the game.
 * Weapon Advise: Always carry 5-10 weapon repair kits on you, Christine's cos silencer rifle uses .308 ammo which you can get plenty of from Daniel Contreras and the Dead Money vending machines. Gehenna will be used against enemies that we can survive a close-combat fight with, while the rifle is used to snipe things like Deathclaws, or to assassinate some enemies before rushing into their camp.
 * Consumables: Implant GRX will provide us with a reliable supply of Turbo, other good consumables are Rushing Water, Steady, Slasher, True Police Stories and Med-x.
