Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Better Criticals: This perk is rated as ineffective. While it may ensure damage with knockdowns, it does not appear to cause instant death even with high damage.
  2. 2
    Crazy Bomber: This perk is rated as bad, primarily useful for blowing up mines. It is not for animals.
  3. 3
    Demolition Expert: This perk is rated as useless, though it might have some utility in multiplayer games.
  4. 4
    Dodger: This perk is rated as bad, offering a weak bonus to Armor Class (AC).
  5. 5
    Explorer: This perk is rated as useless. It might be considered if you wish to avoid extensive searching for all the SEs (Special Encounters), but it is otherwise considered gravy.
  6. 6
    Light Step: This perk is rated as useless, as you should avoid stepping on traps anyway.
  7. 7
    Mutate!: This perk is a must-have, allowing you to give NPCs the Gifted trait.
  8. 8
    Pyromaniac: This perk is rated as average and only works with the Flamer weapon.
  9. 9
    Sharpshooter: This perk is rated as very good, especially for snipers.
