      There is actually a special stat spread optimal for almost every build in the game. Its 7 strength, 5 perception, 8 endurance, 1 charisma, 5 intelligence, 6 agility, and 8 luck. Slight modifications can be made based on the build such as higher agility for vats builds, 1 luck for explosive builds, and high charisma for follower builds. Keep in mind perception actually has no effect on vats accuracy as it is bugged so there is no point going above 6 perception, and the health regen implant really isn't necessary at only 1hp per 10 minutes.

    For future reference, counterintuitive as this is, "Trigger discipline" is sort of a detriment for sniper builds because of the way accuracy works in NV.
    Every weapon has a positive "bullet spread" value, and unsurprisingly, long-range rifles have extremely low spread to begin with. This makes the 20% better accuracy do almost nothing, while 20% slower fire rate is a very noticable nerf in many situations.
    This also means that its counterpart fast shot is actually great for sniper builds. If a weapon has .05 bullet spread, youre getting 20% faster firing speed at the cost of raising the bullet spread to .06. An extremely generous tradeoff if you ask me.

      I didn’t know that, but the easiest way into the strip for me at least is to hill the NCR soldier that warns you when you get to primm and steal his uniform. He’s separated from the rest of the NCR in primm, so they won’t aggro on you if you’re quick enough. Then you take that outfit, use it to board the monorail, and that’s that

    If anyone is crazy enough to try this themselves, you should go with 9 Luck when you pick your SPECIAL stats (if you're using the same stats as Willow, I'd drain Strength since Ratslayer has a very low Strength requirement). Then stop at Novac and do Boone's quest to get the First Recon Beret, buy an implant to get to 10 Luck (if you need caps, just find a casino and play blackjack until they kick you out), and take the Finesse perk at level 10. This gets you a base critical hit chance of 20%. Ratslayer has a 5x critical hit chance multplier, which means every shot is now a critical hit that deals double damage.

      I'd go with 8 Luck, then getting the unique sunglasses (+1 Luck) from the Legion Safehouse after getting the "Mark of Caesar", even if you aren't doing a Legion playthrough it is easy enough to get the Legion to like you by either trading in NCR dogtags or exploiting a dialoge bug to repeatedly teach the Legion to deal with landmines (50 Explosives required) both methods are available in Cottonwood Cove.

      It's just technically more correct. Like you said, one is more accurate to what it does functionally. I think there's history behind it involving them originally being called "silencers" but people coined the term "suppressors" for the sake of not false advertising. Also movies and games make the bloody things why too quiet and it ruins the immersion for some of us.

    12:46 Pro tip on this area: before passing through if you want to do this smoother you can sneak up the ridge to the south I believe? You should be able to sneak past the bighorners up there, they'll show up as hostile but they shouldn't go out of their way to attack you if you keep your distance. Once past them there's nothing between you and the two Vipers east of these bighorners. At this distance the other Vipers to the northern hill won't aggro to you. I advise starting this engagement with a sneak attack then once you finish these two off, if you have a decent scoped weapon you should be able to get at least one sneak crit off the northern Vipers across the road.

    I recommend using the Gobi Campaign Scout rifle as a unique mid game or even late game sniper it does slightly more damage than the base sniper rifle has the highest dps and the largest magazine capacity although it is a very hard locked chest to get it

    Nice job. Personally, I would have put a bit of a bigger focus on luck and stealth early on, and made a dash for the Ratslayer. On higher difficulty it is a bitch to get but I think speedrunning through the cave and grabbing it is a must for a sniper build.

    • @WillowPlaysGames
      @WillowPlaysGames  7 місяців тому

      The run is a failure from minute one. You will always exit the vault during the day. Even ignoring that I just don't find the concept difficult, more so tedious with having to waste half the time of the run hiding inside, also obsessing over the in game clock isn't difficult or interesting. Don't get me wrong, it's still on the list and members could vote for it one day but unless there's something added to it or changed with how it would work it's a bit of an odd one to make. Thank you for the suggestion and please don't let this discourage you from suggesting other runs! I just like being honest. You're beautiful and thank you for the comment!

    Slight note here for those who would venture into the comments of a video that is already fairly old...
    Robert E. House is voiced by Rene Auberjonois. The same person who plays Odo in Deep Space Nine.
    I'm pretty sure every single Trekkie caught it as soon as I did... But when Willow mentioned House was his favorite character in all of Fallout I had to agree with a, "Fuckin' Odo, baby!" On my end.
    Although... House isn't my favorite... Anymore. That honor lies with Cvrie.

    Ok, typing this before I watch it through. This will be an interesting challenge, though sneak may be able to even things out. Ratslayer is a good unique for this if you’re stealthing through, but if Endgame is anti-material, this will be fun to see, curious as to who our endgame is.

    personally would have used B42 Optics instead of True Scopes as Optics gives true dual rendering scopes (just have to do some tweaking when you get one when using other weapon animations), dual rendering meaning what is in your scope is zoomed but around your scope is your set FOV given I try to make my load orders as immersive as possible while not changing too much of the combat balance, and to be clear I just like suggesting alternate mods to ones and am not bashing on you using True Scopes

    • @WillowPlaysGames
      @WillowPlaysGames  7 місяців тому

      Honestly, I barely spend any time on my mods. I just go with the first thing that works and doesn't feel too disruptive to the base game. I tried 2 scope mods and this was the one that actually worked so it's what I used. Thanks for the suggestion, I don't think I'll be using it as I never opt for scopes of my own volition but if I do need a scope mod again I'll def look into it

    Ngl this is probably one of the more forgiving and easier challenges especially if you use something like a silenced .22 with 10 luck because armoured or not, it will result in either 1 shotting to the body or just dealing insane damage
