Title: Energy Sniper build
Post by: JacksSmirkingRevenge on April 23, 2011, 08:43:44 am
ST4 PE8 EN4 CH1 IN6 AG8 LK10

Smallframe/goodnatured

EW/230 FA/101 Doc/100

QuickRecovery, Morecritsx3, Bettercrits, LGx1, BRF. not sure if i should drop BRF and take Sharpshooter or another LG

This character doesnt use drugs. I just hate having to gather that stuff.

Will my 230 EW make up for the 4 str? o know of some BGs who have str4 and have high BG skill and it works fine for them.

BG don't need to aim, if only they're bozar-build, but then they're very bad bozar build, because 4 ST and 230% EW = not good for long ranges. You can be plasma tank with this ST and skill, but your EN and x1 LG tells that you'll die very fast at plasma rifle range, also you won't shoot plasma rifle on its max range with 95% to hit in the head, it means you're close-ranged plasma tank with low HP, it means you're close-ranged plasma-light-vehicle!
Also do you really think those 5% worth it? Better take 3 ST and Weapon Handling instead of More Critical. Nuka-cola = 100 caps in JT, just come there once and buy very very very very very very many bottles and have some with you every time, so with 9 AG it'll be 10, good that you don't hate having to gather EW weapon and ammo, or else you better play unarmed character.
Or make PE 9, if you really find it hard to buy nuka for 100 caps from JT, btw, with cigs for 100 caps from the same JT you'll have +1 PE too! But if find it hard... then not.

hmm, i guess u're goin' to use laser rifle bcoz ur PE is 8
(PE8 will hv 44 sight hexes, laser rifle max. range is 45)

but i hv to say u wont hv enough accuracy to aim eyes when u only hv 230skills and  st4

bcoz laser rifle(even plasma rifle) need st6

------------------------------------------------
-1 st will reduce ur accuracy by 20

for example,

a st5 sg char. using a 10mm pistol, aiming a foe's eye at the weapon's maximum range with just 95%

when his st reduce 1, he'll only hv 75% at the same situation
------------------------------------------------

as i calculate the accuracy equation b4, a ST6 PE8 Energy Sniper build need over 240skills to aim the eye at 44hexes
(may be my calculation are wrong :P)


EN4+LG*1, for a sniper 14xhp is enough :)


if u're worry about the accuracy, u should take sharpshooter but not BRoF


FA is not really important in a real-time fight, coz it takes lots of AP

Actually, PE8 gives 44 range, and laser rifle uses 45


oh, and no, 230 won't be enough with 4st

Energy weapons don't have ammo that decreases AC, so even with 6 ST (or 3ST+weapon handling) you'll need high numbers like 230-240 to aim at eyes on full range

Just drop 4 Luck and go for 6 STR, 7 INT, 9 AG . You will not crit much less, can take all needed perks and
dont get a malus on hitchance. Also you can boost with a nuka to 10 AG, and put some more skillpoints
into energy/fa/doc.
