Builds / Build Advice, TC + Guns

« on: February 24, 2022, 01:59:41 pm »

I want to try running a build that utilizes Though Control for crowd control and debuffs while using guns as my main form of offence. I'm new to the game and not really sure where to start or end with the idea so...

Does this idea work at all to begin with?
Which gun type would work best with TC and why?
Playing around with the build planner, I find it hard not to spread my skills. Where should I be focusing? Do I need to invest a ton in social skills and crafting?
What order should I be raising my skills in? Which perks are the most important?

Thanks.

Builds / New Player Build Advice, Psi/Pistol

« on: July 31, 2021, 12:40:46 pm »

Hola.

I'm about to start my first playthrough of the game and I'm wondering if a Pistol + Thought Control build is something viable. I like the idea of a gunslinging mind controller with high persuasion, using guns to deal the damage and psi abilities for crowed control and support. I'd like to get the most out of the game as I can through having whatever skills or stats are required to open up as many options as possible. From reading about different builds, hybrid builds seem to suffer from stat and feat spread.

Is this idea doable? People tell me the game can get rough so I'm more interested in playing something functional than sticking strictly to the idea.

Thanks.
