Hey guys.

For my 2nd playthrough, I want to create a melee character, but with the personality and charisma of a legion centurion/ battle hardened veteran.

Can you give me advice on 'SPECIAL' e.t.c. and what skills to tag because I've no experiance with melee characters whatsoever in rpg's.

Thanks, Ina.

It depends (a little) on if you want to go melee, or unarmed.

My base suggestions would be to have a decently high strength (higher level melee weapons can require 8 or 9 str to wield effectively), and decently high endurance for the HP, and being able to pick up the perks that add to DT (stonewall, toughness).

I normally make a character and tag one weapon skill and two utility skills, in your case I would obviously tag melee weapons, repair is optional, but useful when you get ahold of bigger/more expensive weapons, then either lockpicking, science, or speech seem the most useful to me.
