General / max skill needed?

« on: October 18, 2014, 06:22:06 pm »

hi, my second thread
i wanted to ask everyone, what their experience is, about how much skillpoints you need in every skill.
for example, how much persuation do you need for the hardest persuation check.
after what evasion/dodge level haven't you noticed much change anymore?
what what the highest crafting skill requiremt you had?
etc.
when can i invest my skillpoints somewhere else?

would like to hear your experience, because it can help everyone in their character building process.

General / assault rifle build

« on: October 17, 2014, 10:52:23 am »

Hi,
i wanted to try a build that mainly uses assault rifles for combat.
i wanted to use heavy armor with it, so dodge and evasion won't help me much.
the problem i found is, that there are almost no feats affecting assault rifles...
most of the really nice skills only affect smg's or pistols.
can someone help me with getting a good idea for an assault rifle build?
what stat would be my mainstat? if i didn't miss something, it would be perception.

i thought about this:

Base:
Strength 7 (weapon and feat requirements)
Dexterity 5 (for throwing and lockpicking a bit)
Agility 3 (since i don't use stealth, dodge or evasion, since i want to use heavy armor)
Constitution 7
Perception 10 (for the guns skill)
Will 3 (since i don't use psi or persuation skills)
Intelligence 5 (for hacking and maybe, if recommended, some crafting skills)

Skills: (the ones i definitly want to use)
Guns 15
Throwing 15
Hacking 15
Lockpicking 15
Traps 15
45 points left

With feats i would really appreciate your help.

i thank you for any help i get.

General / evasion and dodge, what is it good for?

« on: October 20, 2013, 07:35:48 pm »

hi,
i tried to understand the game mechanics a little better, because the wiki is a bit vague with it's explanaitions.
so i cheated a character with all base stats to 10 and all skills to 500
i had 500 dodge and evasion 754 with the base stats bonus.
i thought, that is incredibly high and just attacked a guard in the start basement.
3 shots 3 hits and i was dead.
so now my question. what is evasion good for if guards still have 100% accuracy on you?
does evasion even matter?
