1st playthrough assassin build
« on: July 12, 2025, 04:34:01 pm »
Hey guys!
This is my first time playing this game and went for the stealth assassin build cuz i love it. Had some problems on the junkyard, but managed to beat that and just started the core city quests and I don't know if the problems I'm having is because i suck or the build sucks (or both). Either way, I'm not sure if my build is a good one to finish the game. Guess I fucked it up by maxing agi and not dex. I thought that 3 will would make me too weak against psi, hence the 5 points in it. Could you guys help a noob?
I'm lvl 8 now with the following skills and atributes:
str: 3
dex: 9
agi: 10
con: 3
perc: 5
will: 5
int: 7
stealth, melee, lockpicking, traps, hacking all on 50. mech on 40, elec and tailoring 20. Throw on 10. Chem and bio on 5. Guess I fucked it up on the crafting side too by not focusing on nade/mine crafting early on. For feats I have burglar, hit and run, snooping, crippling strike, cheap shots, expose weakness. Also, guess I went too hard on the sneaky peaky vibe with burglar/snooping instead of choosing combat feats.
So, what you guys think? Is there a way to save this playthrough or should I start over?

5 will gets you ripper, and if you join JKK it gets you a big persuasion boost as well

hit and run was a bad choice; should have went with fancy footwork
I'm assuming youre not playing on dom; you should be alright.  Focus from now on on raising dexterity and taking combat feats; blitz, critical power, taste for blood, etc.
