Explosive is actually one of the best skill sets, if maxed out everything is a one hit kill and you'll never set off mines.Siuki said:

Tell Lucas Simms you'll disarm the bomb.
Go talk to Mr. Burke.
Agree to detonate the nuclear device.
Go back to Simms, and report it and give him the detonator.
Follow Simms.
Burke will assassinate Simms.
Kill Burke.
Take Burke's stuff (kinda nice) and take Simms' stuff (including a Chinese Assault Rifle).

True, but with a powerful gun like Blackhawke or one of the unique snipers and maxed out Small Guns, you can oneshot just as easily.ColdStorage said:
Add in the surprise attack bonus with Sneak and it's even better.
In the end, however, I suppose it just boils down to personal preference.

Just do what I did; shot him in the face
How's using melee weapons? My brother, 3 years older than me at 16(If you can do simple subtraction, don't nag me about it.), wants to make an African American(He wants to make him like Luke Cage) melee fighter. The idea of bringing a sword(or whatever melee weapon you have on you at the time) to the laser gun fight is still strange to me. Is it really that effective?(In Fallout 3, I mean. Many online gamers have tasted the Energy Sword's blade.)Yureina said:
Yeah, I've had the BlackHawk but I don't like sniping in Fallout, that and the unique weapons are a ***** to get.Madnezz said:
Although the Terrible Shotgun is totally worth it, with your sneaky bugger approach its the strongest weapon in the game, but once again you have to go to hell in a hand cart to get it.
Depends. I tend to avoid melee characters, but that's also because my mods make gun combat quite dangerous. Dangerous to the point that melee combat is only an option for indoor corridors that give little time for an enemy to get alot of shots off. I couldn't tell you how well it works in the "normal" game, but I do think that melee is pretty decent, though it can be rather dangerous.Siuki said:
Yeah there is just an insane amount stuff in the world to find and explore, its crazy, tho be careful not to skip any of the story by getting to far ahead and entering vault 112 to early cause you miss a fair chunk of story.Siuki said:
I find that even though the Terrible Shotgun is crazy powerful, I don't use it that much, as to get the full benefit every single pellet has to hit, meaning you're going to be standing very close to your opponent. Using it endgame with Albino/Giant Radscorpions and Deathclaws which wreak havoc in close quarters, I find that it's safer to snipe, however I've got a really low HP count, so if you've got a high HP and buff up with Buffout and Med X, I can see it being really effective.ColdStorage said:
I've given mine to Charon, he's unstoppable with it.Madnezz said:
I hardly fight in the game when I've got Charon in power armour and with that shotgun.
That's a good idea; I never really used companions other than Dogmeat, although I think it'd be interesting to see a minmaxed character completely specialized in things like Speech, Lockpick, Computers etc. and leave all the combat to a companion.ColdStorage said:
My advice to you is that you should download all of the DLC if you haven't already, especially Operation Anchorage because if you turn down the difficulty and play through it (like I did on my 3rd play through) you get what is literally the best armor in the game, as well as weapons if you use an exploit, but it may take away the challenge of the game, so be aware of that.
The greatest advice I can give is to go to http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Fallout_Wiki. Careful of spoilers, but it is the greatest resource you can have because it tells you about virtually everything in this huge game. I still use it to find out where I can find special weapons, gear, items and other fun things. I HIGHLY recommend you use it.

So you're totally 24, right? XDSiuki said:
In response to your question, yes, this thread is handy. I'm doing a build based on getting pretty much everything by the end of the game, maxed skills and 10 in all attributes (taking almost perfect at level 30 and getting all the attribute bobbleheads AFTER that... and yes, I have Broken Steel). Of course, I had to be a stubborn butthead and try to do the fire ant mission at level 4, thinking it would have some awesome reward... that's several hours of hell I would've liked to have headed off beforehand.
Enemies like Raiders are pretty annoying in the start since they're kinda hard then and there, but later on you one shot them with more powerful weapons and they end up kinda like flies and stuff.
Also, later in the game, in The Republic of Dave, there is a more powerful Hunting Rifle. Many memories have been made while using that rifle.

Yea there is a real bonus to leveling up which is good but its all run run run... wait rocket it launcher? Yea I fear nothing.
If you're specialising in Sneak, a good idea would be to play through the Operation Anchorage DLC to aquire the Chinese stealth suit. It acts like a Stealth Boy while crouching and it would also be worth improving the Melee skill, so you can use the suit in tandem with Jingwei's Shocksword. Also when you can, get the Ninja perk (Melee Weapons:80, Sneak:80) to improve melee and sneak attacks.
