Fallout 3 Earnable Perks Tier List

[@eggplantcake1278]

Superior Defender makes the Minigun actually viable past the early game, and makes Vengeance the most powerful weapon in the game.

[@ReapeeRon]

Yeah that and Ghoul Ecology are pretty crazy on any weapon with low base damage.

[@guillaume9102]

You forgot to say that to get the Dream Crusher perk, you need to make Moira sad so obviously that's a perk you never never want to have.

[@ReapeeRon]

That is true, I should have included that.

[@asdasd-ty9se]

But what if I want to be a ?

[@mahoganydoughnut6082]

I always liked earnable perks more than any other perk system in the games. even if they do almost nothing its nice to have a piece of your characters history with you, like the brain piece or the aretino heirloom.

[@ReapeeRon]

Yeah I like them too!

[@cat-meowhood]

Point lockout perks are nice, its just hillybillys finishes off my stimpack supplies through the DLC.

[@cyh6092]

I chowed Punta fruit for healing. It's kinda heavy though.

[@fredhurst2528]

I believe point lookout gives certain enemies a base damage boost, meant to indirectly level lock the dlc. It's like +25 or something pretty insane like that.

[@Buzterer]

between toughness and pit fighter thats 13 dt always, with superiror defender it can go up to almost 25. Just from perks

[@ReapeeRon]

Yeah and that is about the same as most the high end non power armors.

[@davidteachout1888]

Gotta love getting that max 85 DT with no med x

[@gregtuff4020]

The rush to Rivet city is especially good considering the intelligence bobblehead is there too

[@ZeonicFenrir]

Great video, but something that people continue to incorrectly assume is that there’s no normal way to get both rewards from the Replicated Man: there is! If when speaking with Harkness about what to do after learning he is android you pass the more difficult speech check to convince him to go back to the Commonwealth with Zimmer, he will give you his gun and ask you to tell Zimmer that he will go back with him, which will also get you the perk. For me this is also indication that this was the intended canon outcome of the quest, specially given that Epicnate revealed in a video about Dr. Zimmer that leftover files from FO4 suggest that Zimmer was going to reappear in FO4 at one point in development.

[@BasilLecher]

Cannon is probably Zimmer failing to find Harkness and going home since nobody seemed to like or care about helping him. At worst, the railroad succeeded in giving him the fake part.

[@a_lost_one]

Another perk list? Hell yeah. 🎉

[@ReapeeRon]

Hope that you enjoy!

[@Hashashin_Fidayin]

Hematophage is a lot better if you use Tale of Two Wasteland hardcore, since it also gives you -60 food and -60 water.

[@brantnuttall]

Another good video! Rushing Point Lookout though I would say is incredibly risky.

[@MetalheadSean666]

Oh I love the hematophage perk, I get it every playthrough they're everywhere saves stimpacks and they weigh nearly nothing

[@ReapeeRon]

Awesome!

[@mightystu49]

Definitely, especially given non-stimpack healing in Fallout 3 is kinda iffy and usually comes with rads which isn’t huge but can add up. It just makes blood packs go from useless to handy.

[@ajon6487]

Hematophage + nuclear anomaly is actually a great combo since you need exactly 20hp to trigger the effect. If it doesnt go off you can pop a bloodpack to adjust your hp right above 20 again almost turns blood packs into mini nukes with a maximized low health build. Im finally starting to realize how fun and op low health builds are in fallout NV, 4, and 76. Theyre the perfect/fun end-game build and rewarding. I really wanna get fo3 again to test and make an ultimate low health build. If you can hotkey blood packs and tank tri beam lasers by having your damage resistance/DT high, then you could essentially walk up to anything in the game and trigger nukes from nuclear anomaly. You could even get your radiation super high so you dont over heal. God i wish i had fo3 or someone would post a video showing this. Mitten squad did a vid using nuclear anomaly but he didnt utilize it perfectly since he was just basically speed running the game. A build like this takes precise gear and perks etc to work. Mini nukes are so rare in fo3 this build would be allowing you to just have infinite nukes since vendors always restock blood packs.

[@ajon6487]

Rad regeneration would go perfect as well

[@ReapeeRon]

Yeah you could do that, I haven't ever tried. It could be fun, I would also add nerd rage to that build to kind of help with the low hp.

[@theghostofthomasjenkins9643]

this is really my favorite part of FO3 as compared to FNV. FO3 has better earnable perks and it seems like it has more of them.

[@TimothySagawa-xx8of]

Too bad 3's story and RPG elements suck. Emile P. is like a reverse Midas; everthing he touches turns to shi*.

[@mysterioushazel]

⁠@@TimothySagawa-xx8ofI dont think its only emil writing though, not to say it isnt mainly his writing but there are other people involved. also I dont like 3 either (in fact I hate that game) but the original comment wasnt even about the story or anything. you didnt hwve to say this lmao

[@mihailopetrovic2262]

if tier 2 is nuka cola tier 1 should be nuka quantum

[@ReapeeRon]

I did think about that.

[@brantnuttall]

14:02 I beg to differ. I have done countless playthroughs and have never found all ten even when I've searched absolutely everywhere for them. Usually end up on 8 but I have had 9. It's a bit like Dean's Stashes from another game that you know quite well.

[@MarkofWisdom]

personally I always just have the wikia or some other guide open that shows their locations as I play through the DLC so I can get them all

[@brantnuttall]

@@MarkofWisdom Nice!

[@Souless6X]

13:07 Same fallout is a pretty easy game and vats is kinda there to help newer players cheese certain fights

[@BryanSchaeber]

Friendly reminder that ghoul ecology is bugged. It adds 5 damage EVERY time you hit ANY enemy. Best on fast weapons like rippers shotguns and miniguns. Pair this with superior defender, (which adds another 5 when standing still) and a 30 hit per second ripper now gets an EXTRA 300 DPS while standing still (Tho even an assault rifle becomes powerful)

[@ReapeeRon]

Yeah, that one is really good because of the bug. It's great to rush right away for pretty much any build.

[@xderelictx]

Love the Fallout content, Ron!

[@greywithana2678]

I usually rush ancorage, use that equipment to clear point lookout and i have a very strong character by the end of it

[@ReapeeRon]

Yeah that's what I usually do too. Anchorage isn't too hard to run through early on.

[@greywithana2678]

@@ReapeeRon just wanna thank you for being consistent in quality and releasing content. I always click it when I get the notification

[@IbilisSLZ]

Erm... you place Barkskin (+5DR) below Pit Fighter (+3DR, +3Rad.Res), shouldn't they be swpapped/same tier?

[@DinnerForkTongue]

He explained why when he talked about Barkskin.

[@IbilisSLZ]

@@DinnerForkTongue Considering that he rated Dream Crusher independently of alternative cost (the alternatives were also rated) I thought it was slightly inconsistent.

[@Rj-pw7zs]

I'd personally put power armor training one tier lower simply because I'm not a power armor fan.

[@SaraphDarklaw]

I’ve always used light armor. Nice to see someone else not immediately recommend power armor for everything.

[@evandaymon8303]

It's useful to have for benefits power armor gives you but understandable if you're not planning to use them for your character

[@Rj-pw7zs]

@@evandaymon8303 Yeah I've just never been a power armor fan. Too slow and clunky for my tastes.

[@brantnuttall]

5:07 yeah, that's the one! lol

[@SatoThe]

I know it’s not really your thing but if it’s not too much trouble could you make a video on how you make FO3 playable on PC? I for the life of me cannot get it to boot past the launcher

[@cyh6092]

CD or Steam? The GOG version works with no tweeks for me on w10.
