Im kind of the person that likes to RP with my characters, i dont like making one character that is good at everything, i like to make them specialize in one thing and only concentrate on that (idk why lol). This thread is about which guy i should make next? Ive made 2 people already and messed up their stats(which u really dont see what kind of toll each stat takes on the game until later in it) so im gonna make a new guy. Here are some of my possible choices. (The factions that are next to each option are the sides im going to go with)

NCR Ranger- This guy would be the stealth/gun sligner cowboy. He will use rifles such as repeater and trail carbine and pistols (mostly revolvers). He will also have a high speech skill/charisma.

NCR Heavy Trooper- This guy would be all about lots of health and firepower. I will make him have high health and will use Power armor as my main armor. His main weapon will be the light machine gun and will use explosives (such as fatman, grenade machine gun, etc)

Power Armor Solider- This guy would take Yes mans side in the quest and will be similar to the NCR heavy trooper except he will use energy weapons.

Just a few that come to my mind.



If you choose other please specify below

a crazy old man who kill useing a razer

assassin: melee explosives and sneak. so much fun to play.

I'm currently playing with a NCR-inclined energy weapon, science and repair focused character, Combat armor, any and all energy weapons, sickeningly good character

My next will be a sneaky, snipy, locpicky House supporter. Pistol and rifles only, nothing automatic. Light armor, but relies on stealth and dies if you look at her funny. problem is you can't see her :ninja:

Those are the two characters i play most often, the latter being more fun IMO, though takes patience to not get brutally mauled by anything stronger than a Bloatfly :lmao:

a guy ONLY good at melee weapons, using Range weapons when things get real hairy

How about a kleptomaniac drug addict/alcoholic that likes the tactile pleasure of beating people to death with his fists and blowing things up? The trick is you can't use ranged weapons or melee weapons. It's all unarmed and explosives. Also, your character doesn't believe in paying for his fix, so he has to either steal all the drugs/alcohol or kill someone for it.

Other than that, I'd suggest a character that avoids combat as much as possible. This can be achieved with a high stealth/barter/speech character with the Lady Killer/Black Widow and Confirmed Bachelor/Cherchez La Femme Perks. Ideally, you would try to negotiate your way through the game and only respond with violence out of self defense.

Power Armour Soldier - Walk the main roads of the wasteland with a minigun f**ing s**t up
Sniper - Get a sniper rifle with a supressor and carbon fibre body, high STR for steady aiming, high guns+sneak, perks that give crit chance and roam the wastland killing EVERYTHING. See how many kills you can get before taking 1 point in damage. Good training is killing bloatflies at long range which is HARD.
Cowboy - Use guns like Cowboy Repeater , pistols etc and wear cowboy clothes. Make ur perks VATS oriented with pistols and own
Killing spree - You and your companion both get light MG with the expanded drums mod and ALOT of ammo. Starting from freeside, WALK through all of new vegas gunning everything down.
Make an explosives/pyromaniac. Only use incinerator, flamer, miss. launcher, grenade launcher, mines, grenades etc.
Make a character and only raise skills like survival, medicine, repair, science and get boone and ED E as companions. Let them do the fighting while you take it easy and use those skills.
