9 Luck would be better as max Luck for a sniper, so you might want to sacrifice 1 PE and put it in Luck, it won't make much difference. Cigarettes are an easy-to-maintain drug, if you want to retain the 10 PE, but 9 PE is fine.

Unless your sniper build is a very-drugged build, there isn't that much point in having that much more than 8 AP, because normally you would fire your sniper rifle, then take cover or get out of range, recharge and fire again.

And unless you are going for Nuka Cola as a drug, having un-even Agility is bad. 6 or 8 would probably be best if not a drug build. If you decide to go with 6 AG, put the extra point into Intelligence, because snipers need a lot of skill points to get high skills for aiming far.

Also, having Lockpick as a skill isn't the smartest idea either. If players make a character with Lockpick, they will usually just make a lockpick alt, and it will be an alt designed to get 300% lockpick for places like Glow. Just having it as a side-skill is pointless, because it is useless for the most part. I would suggest Outdoorsman.

Wouldn't 10 ap be better? so 10 ag?

I am going to use this sniper for pvp

Weapon handling does that mean I will not be able to equip a sniper for the first levels? til 15

Yes, exactly. Use 10mm pistol instead.

That sounds terrible for the first fifteen levels.

Does it take long to level such a build?

Any other weapon I could use til than?

I assume factions use this build.

Errr, not so much, depends if you're used to leveling.

Needler Pistol, .44 magnum. But you can still use DKS, you will have a big penalty, but with enough skill and not from max range, it should do the job.

Not really, we have drugged builds ;p

As Crazy said, you don't want to avoid jet if you want a good sniper build.

Btw sniper rifle is a bad weapon for leveling, I leveled all my snipers with 10mm pistol until lvl 21. Why? It has low ST requirement (only 3 instead of 5), an eye shot costs 6 AP (instead of 8 AP) and it's easy to obtain. You can use buffout on your first levels so you will have ST 4 (which means no ST penalty).

So my advice: grab 10mm + some buffout & cigarettes and go hunt molerats. You'll see it's not that hard.

Alright thanks I will do that.

Here is my little suggestion, uses only easy to obtain drugs, ciggs and Nuka cola.

STR - 4
PE - 7
EN - 4
CH - 1
INT - 7
AG - 9
L - 9

Traits:
Small frame
good natured

Perks:
Awareness
More critical (2)
Livegiver
BROF
Better criticals
Sharpshooter

SG: 239%
FA: 125%
DOC: 100%

To catch up the malus of 4 STR, you need ~239% SG skill plus you have sharpshooter perk
which gives some ~8% chance to hit. You will have 94% hitchance on eyes at 50 range.

Boosted with a cigarette you reach 10 PE (7+1+2 bonus from sharpshooter).
With the Nuka cola you reach 10 AG, to perform 2 aimed shots with pistols in 1 turn (thanks to BROF)
or reload and take cover after a shot with sniper rifle.

That build has quite ok critchance of 76% to eyes. If you want to become more critical and
dont want the 2 aimed pistol shots as an option, drop BROF and switch to a 3rd "more crits"

Small disadvantages, as most snipers low HP, and pretty low carry weight.

Wouldn't 10 ap be better? so 10 ag?

I was thinking about cigs and nuka-cola. That's why there is 9PE and 9AG. It isn't hard to get that items. Cost only 100$ per one so.

That sounds terrible for the first fifteen levels.

It isn't so hard. Take BB gun and go hunting mutated molerats. That beast are liable to insta kills.

About drug power build:
I use almost the same char as Gazzz. There are 2 difference between him and my char. I didn't take small frame (with small frame you are not able to carry metal armor and DKS) and I take sharpshooter instead of 2nd more crit.
