How about a "I'll just try to enjoy the game" character?

How about "answering the question" post?


Slavers are fun to play. I made a slaver character and i enjoy it as:
-you can mine with the slaves
-you can set traps and do PvP with the slaves
-you can do some trolling in NCR

Your slaver build will vary depending on what playing style you prefer:PvP or not, 9CH for quick harvest or 6-8CH for other activities, TB vs RT, craft or not etc...

And yes slaver can level up as good as any other build if you know what you are doing.

i have both of chars u wrote and both give u difrient kind of fun. thief is good for BOS (to get amo) or if u like trolling to steal in city. I usualy use thief for shoping cos i alwas can met some one to rab;) slaver i use only for mining its good for me cos i craft a lot. So do a char what u need first.

A bit hard to have fun when u can't even get started lol I'm having bad trouble just getting a tent loll but ima try slaver. Seems good to stock pile ores and u got some body gaurds so farming guns should be quick and easy. Thanks for ur oppinions! If anybody has any more thoughts feel free to post them

Oh any tips on getting rope or where I should get my first slaves?

Craft weak healing powders and exchange them for ropes (2.5 - 3 powders per rope) and gear at Hub and NCR traders (in 3-10 minutes you can have your stuff set up and go do some slaving).
At sector 31:31 you can find lone wanderer - has a bit more than 70HP, good at melee. Easy to capture. Can help you to do PvE on early levels, carry your stuff or just be fun.

ummm does magnetic personality give me 1 cha or one more slave? like if i use 8 cha with magnetic personality will it give me max or do i need 9? abd should i be a burster or should i use single shot guns such as pistols and hunting rifles? or sub machine guns?

Go for 9 Cha + Magnetic Personality. Unless you want to use Mentats and Beer but that doesn't sound confortable.

And I'm sorry, I didn't know you had just started. Good luck out there.

I can already see you haven't tried 6 CH slaver. Crafting ropes is more annoying than getting a mentat and a beer, really. Even if you don't use crafting alts it's not a problem. Remember slaver has access to all drug shops and usually has a high outdoors. And you won't even use these drugs that often, only when enslaving. It's definitely worth 3 SPECIAL points.

I think the best way to get ropes is to buy gas station base. You can craft ropes there.
Usually this base is near very good slaving spots - Modoc and Redding.

I recommend you a slaver, with thief pretty much all you can do is boring NPC farming or annoying people.
Very soon people will know you and you won't steal anything unless the person is a newbie or has some junk and doesn't care.
Slavers are great to start with - you should have good outdoors, you can do quests and you can even PvP with slaves.

Indeed, I have never really used slaver characters at all. Thanks for that Jovanka, I am giving the little help I can offer to this guy on IRC at the moment, so I'm glad you post this now
