CH could be used for those party buffs indeed. 6+ CH and maybe some other requirements and you will be able to take "Born to command" perk witch will grant some nasty stuff like +8 AC or +5% dmg up to 2 party members or something like that. Simply make CH usable in PvP too and then you will see those changes. Also I think that when it comes to interaction among players no CH check should be made when you want to group up with others. For NPC followers why not? But not being able to create group just because you lack "inner spark" or in FOnline its more like "you are considered ugly=loner" kills gameplay and whole point of MMO. This game should encourage groups and such but for combat chars (and lets face it, its all about combat) its very hard to enjoy it since you have to always check who has CH char, then wait for that guy if he is not online or doing something else etc.
Whats wrong with "ugly" people playing together? Creating senseless restrictions just to make CH significant will not help. Boost having average or better CH rather than restrict when you lack it.

I'm not a fan of artificial buffs from other mmorpgs. Instead of incrased damage Born Commander perk could give increased accuracy, +1AP something that inspires do things better. Leader doesn't increase doing more damage, but increases shooting more accurately moving more hasty and so on. rpg beyond anything else.

That's correct, encourage and boost. Low cha has received way too much punishment and it's not helping. The worst part is that cha got punished in an area where low cha chars don't even participate.
Besides, playing as low cha loner sniper or grumpy Dirty Harry- type of guy sounds completely plausible.

You could have more than one cha related combat perks, a wide array, leader is a charisma related build after all. So that a group leader would be invaluable for his team and wanted target for the enemy. Those perks could even work so that you won't get the bonus from your leader if your cha is lower than 3 because your char is too socially restricted.
But you're correct about no direct damage buffs, then again ap and accuracy cause both additional damage in a way. While not completely out of question, some perks could provide just more information for everyone. Like if someone has a "spotter" perk and sees an enemy, everyone in your team sees that enemy because the spotter informs everyone about it. If the spotter spots a mine or a bomb, everyone can see it.

Of course there is one obvious advantage for Ch already there, which could naturally be expanded upon. Followers.
Problem being its easy to use alts to get those benefits for your main char, at the moment.

Make mercs disappear with user even if he is offline? Also make them saying "Damn! Some hours ago you was so sexy! But now you're like my granma.", if you've used mentats to hire him/her/them. For example you've hired 3 mercs, but you have only 3 CH, by using x2 mentats. Next time when you'll see them (you'll be in the same location as they're) you will need to come beatiful again, or 2 most oldest merc that you've hired will leave by simple disappearing.
So, now only members of faction who active (online) will have thier mercs at bases. And only mentat-junkie will have them more than need.
