But there isn't a designed way to achieve stuff in this game so players have to figure it out by themselves. There is an expected way and unexpected way however. For example when nuub asks how to get caps, the answer is often: sell spears. At that point I sigh deep. The faster way is to either level a slaver and grind that slaver quest in den or grind the stranded rust quest. Because the den slavery quest has a character-based cooldown, it's better to level multiple slaver chars to bypass the cooldown.
I'd say the way players play the game and how they are expected to play it has gone out of control.

Okay, on slavery, what kind of sell prices do you get? What are the odds of your slaves disappearing and getting killed as you cross the world map? Here's the kicker: How much time have you invested on your slave alts and what are you looking to purchase with all the caps you have accumulated?
And is this purchasing power superior to the alternatives, such as:
- Thieving BoS and Navarro
- Hunting Blueprints
- PvE patrols, Unity, etc.
- Or just running around and crafting easy stuff to sell to merchants
Also what happens to your family of alts if a server wipe occurs?

slaves sell for 100-200 caps. slave runs can be done every 2 hours for between 1-9k caps. I use this money to buy mercs/cars/bases since getting caps from vendors is highly impractical for the amounts you need to buy anything of value. If you want to trade for vendor items go thief, if you want gear farm encounters. You'll never make caps from anything but slavery though. Make a turn based high ap build and tag outdoor, with high pe and cautious nature you can flee anything quickly.

You can level such character with gatling laser vs centaurs and floaters in one day. Then you go do the quest and do it as fast as you can. Then you see how long it takes aproximately to accomplish this quest and calculate how many replica alts you need to repeat it to avoid that 2h cooldown. I know people who have made hundreds of thousands caps with this quest.

They go hand in hand.

Same as what happens to your items. Alts are just tools, just like items except they have a name on them.

Sounds good on the 9k end, not so good on the 1k ;) With merchants I can get 1500 in 15 minutes, though I can see your POV for grinding pure cash in one sitting.

Smlg,repair and OD.
I also took skilled trait, with this wipe it has become a very good trait since alot of non-combat perks are now mostly attainable by anyone.
My special is 5 ST, 6 PE, 7 EN, 4 CH, 5 IN, 8 AG, 5 LK.
The only thing id change is take 1 point of EN and put it on AG. I woulda been able to drink nuka for 10ap.
