All that said, I will probably write this more for a heavy VATS user, but this does not render the guide useless to someone playing as a sniper with little to no VATS usage.
Nonetheless, your Agility score will be highly important to remaining hidden and thus should probably be picked more often than other stats. Playing manually, the role of Agility will diminish as well, because AP would not be necessary. Perception only gives you an accuracy boost inside VATS.įor that matter, without VATS Luck becomes less important as Critical Hits are only used in VATS aside from one chem (Overdrive), and Overdrive gives you a 25% crit chance inside or outside VATS. A little will help in order to unlock Perks, but it's not required if you're going to do all the shooting yourself - even the Sniper perk itself is possible to overlook (Perception 8) as it gives a knockdown chance and better breath-holding that you may not need, depending on your own ability to aim. If you want to do your sniping manually, you don't need Perception much at all to play a Sniper. I'm only writing this part to instruct new players on how important or unimportant stats are depending upon whether you want to play Fallout 4 like a shooter or tactical RPG.
We can grow a character so sneaky that even indoors we can become a menace with a silenced weapon, and that is necessary because we'll want to enter Fallout 4's many buildings. Everything else is optional and a bonus to your character in order to suit your playstyle. So we want to be sneaky (Agility) and be able to shoot from afar to remain unseen (Perception). Sniper (noun): Someone who, while hidden, tries to shoot a person with a gun someone who shoots at people from a place where they cannot be seen source. I'm listing the Perks you'll need to accomplish the following and roughly outlining the priority you should place on each of them. Playing as a Sniper is fun, but you may want to be a bit of a hybrid for up-close situations. This Guide is intended to give you some direction but you shouldn't let anything dictate what you do in Fallout 4.
