FALLOUT 4: Top 10 WORST PERKS in Fallout 4! (Most USELESS and TERRIBLE Perks In the Game)

[@ObiJuanKenobi3]

The first rank of Aquaboy is great. It makes traveling so much easier, because you can cross a whole ocean without getting 12 flavors of cancer

[@ObiJuanKenobi3]

Also, it's so tedious to put on the hazmat suit, swim, take off the hazmat suit, put all your armor back on yadda yadda. I personally think that it's worth the one action point that it takes.

[@Tribune_of_Italia]

It really isn't worth it though, if you're lazy I guess, but it takes under 30 seconds to do what you said.

[@HerobrineMinion]

+Staffaynu but instead of having to fight two dozen enemies and lose tons of health it's easier to hop in a river and swim to the closest shore to your objective. It's definitely my most used and useful perk.

[@TanyaSapienVintage]

+Staffaynu I'm a kleptomaniac and this post has #triggered me. Kidding, of course, but I'm on the side of taking the perk. It frees up space in your inventory not having to carry around that suit and the cakes, which leaves more room for junk...err, I mean treasures. there's also the passive bonus most people don't seem to be pointing out. Rad-x and radaway are worth good money. Yes, you find an ample supply, but this just means a frugal player has an ample amount to trade to merchants for just one more mininuke to complete that altar to Atom, or buy that shipment of adhesive so they can upgrade their combat armor one more time. If you're spending all your time popping the radaway to counter those passive rads that trickle in every time you get your feet wet, you've got less of them available for bartering down the road. And of course there's the other aspect to this that's somewhat more eyebrow waggling. That hazmat suit has shit for ballistic and energy protection. If you play on hard difficulty like I do and an unexpected enemy pops out as you're exiting the water, you might get dropped to the ground in one or two hits, dead before you can even bring your pip-boy up to don your magically-appearing-in-the-middle-of-combat suit of armor. It's just dead weight, wasted time, and moments of vulnerability that's all spared by investing a single perk point. If there were still a level cap I might have said that a specialized build would better attribute their finite perks elsewhere, but since F04 has infinite levelling, there's basically no reason not to unless you're following a meta and trying to RP the game, but then that asks a more sinister question of if you're trying to do the full roleplay experience...how are you instantly poofing from a hermetically sealed suit into multiple strapped on armor plates and a full jacket and jeans? that's a ten minute operation there, hardly what you magically do from one side of a river to the other while mutants and monsters are wandering about.

[@bboss670]

Aqua boi is great because it helps when you need to get across a lake when you can take 2 seconds to swim across or take 15 minutes to walk around and another 5 extra minutes getting back on track. Lead belly is good because of the fact I have to eat things that I have found on my journey I'm can't just say *HOLD ON SWAN I GOTTA COOK SOME FOOD OVER AT MY SETTLEMENT* and teleport away so I eat the stuff I have found to stockpile stimpacks.

[@vegasmaori6621]

Jayce Reeder did you even listen you can make mire lurk cakes to breath under water for 30 mins and wear a haznat suit to negotiate radiation

[@Avakadoman1995]

Aquaboy is a great perk! With all of the small pools of water, rivers, flooded basements and stuff like that, radiation damage can stack up real quick. Besides, who the hell carries a hazmat suit with them all the time? What a hassle. And saying that Steady Aim is a useless perk? Like, maybe it doesn't fit your playstyle, but that doesn't make it useless.

[@shawnawesomeer5570]

Onetime I was walking to the prydwen in the ocean in power armor because I was over encumbered. I started to drown while I was in the middle of the ocean. Aquaboy saved my life, I'm lucky I had an extra level

[@Ironoclasty]

Agreed - this list seems to be more of a play style preference than a uselessness list. I have a high strength build but had to sacrifice AG, PE, and Luck to get where I was gong with it. Steady Aim is the equalizer to the lousy performance of VATS with the low PE. Lead Belly could be a helpful perk with a HI EN/Lo AG build - can't dodge worth a molerat and takes forever to rebuild hit points, so you've got to eat everything you can find. Quick Hands: Hi AG PE build with Lo EN - can't afford to take any hits; you can't waste time reloading. I would love to see a review of what kind of build would make any of these "useless" perks ideal.

[@blavena]

I see your point, mostly, except most players do carry the hazmat suit, it is extremely practical for many reasons other than water and its not that heavy

[@worldwidegamekk1898]

Avakadoman I do I have it cause I'm rich

[@Boibucks]

Avakadoman true dat my dude

[@KingCycl0ps]

I really don't understand your logic with aquaboy, you first point is that you can wear the hazmat suit, witch is yes rather easy to find, but you cannot wear any other armor, and is vary inconvenient to reequip it every time you need to cross a patch of water. your next point is that you can use mirelurk cakes to breath under water, whitch require a mirelurk meat, mirelurk egg, oil, and razergrain, and it only last half an hour. So rather than spend one point ( in a game with an unlimited level cap), you can spend 5 or more hours to get a hazmat suit, farm mirelurks, try to fing a mirelurk nest (with a 50/50 chance of the eggs hatching and trying to kill you), scavenge for lamps, gas cans, ect, and plant a razor grain farm.

[@KingCycl0ps]

I do respect your opinion, I was mearly trying to give another perspective, I tend to use aquaboy at lvl 3-5, because it is vary convenient to have a passive effect rather than a clothing idem. I also searched it up on the wiki (as I cannot play Fallout at the moment) and the hazmat suit does not extend the time you can breath underwater. I thank you for your well said reply, It always bothers me when someone is not mature enough to give a responce with any effort involved.

[@chefgamming4882]

how about use radaway in mode below survival,and find a bed to sleep after using radaway in survival mode? I don't think finding a bed is that hard, and you should wastr your point in local leader,which is so much more important than aqua boy.

[@jgrande1172]

The perk also eradicates radiation underwater all together, while if you just wear a hazmat suit you will still take some radiation damage

[@ruckersaito596]

actually the crit-system with all the different perks is quite nice once you built your char in this direction, since you can choose which of the enemies are worth a critical hit and which ones are easy to kill without crits. it makes the game more strategic (like old turn-based RPGs) - instead of being a simple shooter. the only thing that's pretty annoying is the loud sound it makes every time your crit bar gets refilled by your maxed out grim reaper's sprint or four leave clover. and VATS of course also was invented when the series changed from a turn-based game to a real-time system. VATS (combined with the action points) was the way to please the fans of the old turn-based mechanics.

[@anamericaninbusan9389]

I'm gonna defend each of these. Lead Belly: Stimpaks are valuable. People might sell 'em if they need the caps. Sometimes I'll sell a few. Imagine a player who saves stimpaks for the caps, and doesn't wanna waste them on themselves. What else is there for them to use? Cooked food, sure, but what if they're a scavenger/hoarder like me? Meaning they keep their inventory very light so they can pick up as much stuff as possible when they go into a new area? Cooked food can get heavy. They might not bring much. In that scenario, they can only eat the meat the take directly off the creatures they kill. In that case, Lead Belly becomes very useful, since the raw meat does have rads. But with Lead Belly, they don't. Aquaboy/Aquagirl: I love this perk. You may call it being lazy, I call it being efficient. Swimming across rivers without taking rads just speeds things up quite a bit for me, and anyone who plays like me. Also, think of this what you will... I've actually never found a hazmat suit in the game. Maybe I've overlooked them, or maybe I'm just blind. But I've never seen one. So, for me, Aquaboy/girl is great. Rad Resistant: I'm all about radiation resistance. That may explain why I love Aquaboy/girl and Lead Belly so much... To me, radiation sickness is so inconvenient... Fighting off ferals or a glowing one without having any rad X or radaway on you makes death by radiation poisoning a big possibility. Anything to reduce that possibility is good by me. Moving Target: To me, this perk is meant to make it easier to escape powerful targets. As you said, if you're sprinting, you're either charging, or running away. I'm usually doing the latter, so I certainly wouldn't mind having some extra assurance that I'll escape successfully. V.A.N.S. .....I can't defend this one. V.A.N.S. sucks. I agree. Basher: Blade attachment + Basher = Having a fun time when a raider or an animal thinks it can win by charging you. Nothing's more satisfying than emptying a clip into an enemy and then finishing it off by beating it down with your gun. Quick Hands: I don't like the pause that occurs when reloading. In many cases with my play style it just gives the enemy/enemies a chance to land a few hits while I reload. That's no fun. I don't wanna just sit there and wait for my guy to take his time reloading. I want that gun reloaded as quickly as possible after the gun is empty. Steady Aim: I hip fire all the time. I mod my guns for increased hip fire accuracy. It's so I can keep moving and reduce the chances of getting hit myself. It works. Steady aim helps. Ghoulish: Remember what I said before about selling stimpaks? Same thing applies here. Plus with all tat radiation resistance you've got from Rad Resistant, why not turn those rads into something positive? Like restored health? Plus, those ghouls and glowing ones are now a walking source of free health. Score!

[@WardenWolf]

Aqua Boy is too useful, in my opinion. Take a single perk and you can both breathe underwater and take no radiation from it, permanently. Keep in mind that if you fall into deep water while wearing power armor, you can very easily drown before you can get out. But if you take Aqua Boy, that'll never be a problem again. I'm taking Ghoulish currently. . .at level 158. I've simply run out of many more useful things to take. Also, shotguns in this game suck, as I'm sure you've noticed. ;-)

Well, it takes soo long for you to drown that I've never in my 250 hours of play have ever felt the need to be able to stay under for longer. Any long distance walks in power armor under water seems dumb as it's so incredibly slow. The amount of radiation you take from being in water is so low that it's only really useful if you're planning to spend like 10 minutes in the water at a time.

[@RaidriarTheRadicalKing]

[@STUV101]

+ JV2017gameplay 1.) Lead Belly is really good for eating irradiated canned foods and water sources on Survival mode (especially when a camp fire is far away) 2.) Aquagirl / Aquaboy is really good for attacking the raider towns that are in water (there are about 3 towns that are submerged in water, and one off shore raider base). Really good if your a stealth build, go Navy Seal on some enemies. 3.) Rad Resistant... ya it needs buffed =/ 4.) Moving target is also good for retreating. The bonus damage resistance can give you enough damage resistance to get to better cover or out of danger. 5.) V.A.N.S .... I don't know if the Unofficial Patch fixed it, but i hope it gets fixed =/ 6.) Bash is really good for players who don't use melee weapons and run out of ammo. Also, melee bashing acts as a hit stun, and can set an enemy up for a lethal kill. 7.) Refractor... ya that needs buffed =/ 8.) Quick Hands, it's useful for weapons with limited ammunition capacity (44 magnum, shotguns, Laser Musket, Rocket Launcher, etc.) But not having to pay reload AP is super useful, especially when combined with Gun Fu. 9.) Steady Aim is really good for weapons with long range scopes, having that extra hip fire accuracy can really help when the enemy gets way to close for comfort. 10.) Ghoulish is pretty overpowered for Survival mode. In Survival Mode, Stimpaks make you more thirsty, draining your resources when on an operation. With this perk, you can sit and bake next to some Isotopes and be ready.

[@TheFriley4]

+STUV101 About Ghoulish though, I just think it makes no God damned sense, sacrifice a sizable chunk of your max HP in order to gain regen for the HP that remains? Especially on a mode where 1 unnoticed mine, 1 well-thrown molotov, 1 enemy getting the jump on you pretty much equals dead even if at max HP lol. Just my opinion though

[@STUV101]

TheFriley4 Yes it does reduce your health, however, it doesn't effect your thirst, hunger meters in survival. That's the problem with using stimpaks in survival, it makes you thirsty really fast, using more of your resources. Not only that, you can just build a decontamination machine in your settlements to remove the rads. Also im pretty sure Ghoulish perk effects food and drink that's radioactive, making them heal you faster.

[@Gwen-qq8vd]

The ghoulish perk is activated by any rads you receive, I thought it'd be useful and grabbed it. It's still not the best, at least the first lvl of it, but it makes the impact of walking through a few feet radiation.

He seems to have missed that it makes you take no rads from any water (other than drinking rad damage) so it removes the danger from wadeing through water as well, and since that is something you have to do often in areas full of fighting, hazmat suit is the worst possible idea in combat conditions.

You even went as far as to call people lazy lol. 1. I'm not sure how you play this game but I for one am not in power armor constantly to sink to the bottom and walk across every lake and or deep water that I come across while exploring. 2. I don't carry a hazmat suit on me cause there is no reason to if am ever going to the glowing sea I will just fast travel to the castle and get my power armor if I am near radiation I will just simply move away. There is no reason for me to have that extra un-needed weight and yes before you say it's only 1lb I have had moments to where my weight was 320/320 and I simply could not drop anymore. Not only that but having to un- equip then re- equip my armor just to cross one lake is unnecessary. 3.It's one point for no radiation and the ability to breath underwater, you calling people lazy for using it is like me calling you dumb for not using it just so that you can seem less lazy to yourself.

[@buttybizinsky9572]

You can switch weapons

[@KoeSeer]

1. Lead Belly is now your best friend on survival mode. In survival mode, radaway has side effect. Beside healing your radiation, it could give you some harm, like increase chance for you to get disease and gives you hunger. Lead Belly significantly reduce or negates all radiation from food and water. Basically you can eat EVERYTHING without fearing about that radiation damage. 2. Aquaman/girl is also your best friend in or not in survival mode. Having no radiation damage while swimming or standing on knee high water is a big help. 3. Rad Resistant. While it gives you rad resistant, you can still get tons of rad resistance with PA and Rad-X. 4. Moving Target. Meh. If you have lv 4 Chemist and Med-X, you basically a freaking concrete wall. 5. VANS. Anyone who pick VANS are either can't read the compass, can't read map, or accidentally pressed it and cry for hours. 6. Basher. I personally pick this for fun (with the help of console command, because I don't want to spent my precious perk points for something you don't really use often). They could 1 hit Raider Veteran. But most people probably will just shoot them with Gauss Rifle. 7. Reflector. I picked these perks after level 90. I already got my essential perks on max anyway. Yeah, you should just use Ballistic Weave. 8. Quick Hands. Only pick this for level 1. It actually helps you reloading faster on weapons with drum magazine or weapon with long reload animation like missile launcher. 9. Steady Aim. Only pick it if you only play with heavy weapons like minigun. Heh, come to think of it, only minigun could see the benefit of this perk. 10. Ghoulish. This perk is just doesn't make no sense. AT ALL. Unlike previous Fallout, Radiation reduce your total HP. The HP regen rate of this perk depends on how radiated you are. The more radiated, the faster, but your HP pool will be reduced because the radiation. Still useless. If they change this perk to "radiation now add your damage. The more radiated you are, the more damage will be added", it will be good for people who want to play as radiation powered berserker mutant. It also could give benefit to Nerd Rage perk. You can stand on or eat something that gives you radiation, then when your nerd rage triggered because your HP became low, you will get 4x damage buff from Nerd Rage and Ghoulish. Boom! 1 hit Securitron and any deathclaw.

[@TheFriley4]

+KoeSeer Good points, I agree with most of them. About number 1 though, leadbelly would make it so you don't have to worry about gaining rads from raw foods and un-purified water on Survival mode, but it doesn't get rid of the risk of getting parasites/infections from them, so I think its still pretty unwise to be gulping all that dirty shit down lol. That and the fact that you need to invest 3 damn perks to actually get the Rad damage down to zero just makes it way too not worth it imo. I like your idea for how to change ghoulish though, that would be a pretty fun role-playing build!

[@boynamedlen]

+Michael Justice I agree, it was one of the first perks I invested in. This was before I really knew what I was doing (first time Fallout player) and before I knew hazmat suits were a thing :p I was getting radiation all the time from swimming so it seemed only logical to get Aquaboy. I only care about the first rank though, the second rank is completely unnecessary and that's coming from a stealth player! Would I have gotten it if I'd found a hazmat suit sooner? Probably yes because I'd rather spend one point on it than having to (un)equip the suit every time I go for a plunge.

[@Dirtbag-Hyena]

Lennart N The 2nd rank is definitely useless at this point in the game,but rank 1 is a must. It doesn't just work for swimming either, go stomping around in a swamp fighting Mirelurks & you won't have to worrie about where you fight. Also,building settlements in or near water Aquaboy/girl is invaluable. Maybe the 2nd rank will be useful in the DLCs or the new survival mode.

[@Lolzboss88]

I would also disagree and say it's a really good perk and it's worth it, there's so many hidden chest and treasures under the oceans lakes and water holes, Also it makes for faster travel instead of running around the water, as well as the Mirelurk cakes make for a good way to earn caps upon selling

There's a mission for one of the best armor in the game from Far Harbor that you have to swim a bunch, so I think aquaboy/girl is great. I find it extremely useful

[@tanvirkabir4960]

Great loot in the ocean? Name one and location.

[@Ryan--333]

Tanvir Kabir far harbour marine armour...

[@tanvirkabir4960]

OK thanks

[@aaronlankster9142]

I personally love the V.A.N.S. perk. I do understand that it doesn't actually make your character more deadly or more resistant to damage, but as someone who doesn't like to have to search around for a long periods to complete certain missions, I find that it saves a lot of time.

[@edmartin875]

Surely you don't need to search around for your destination. I don't need to mark my destination or even look at the map to get where I am going. Hell, it ain't even rocket surgery.

[@timxu6631]

I use aqua boy cuz I'm rly lazy......

[@Rainbow-gc6kh]

That shows in your writing

-.-

[@adaharrisonn]

Tim Xu I don't get what being lazy or not has to do with not wanting to get tens of rads just from being in water

[@ronmcdon1530]

[@lavaleader3455]

I dont think aqua boy is the BEST perk in the game, but it can come in handy sometimes

[@towelbear3981]

+LavaLeader agreed

[@justnoob8141]

Dude it very handy and cost less bottlecap to buy between rad-x and radaway

[@towelbear3981]

really? didnt know that, I thought it just allowed us to breathe and take no rads from water

[@justnoob8141]

+JMF Gaming I mean not away use radaway and rad-x when swim

[@towelbear3981]

interesting

[@FrFrijole]

Come on aqua boy/girl perk is awesome. Why use a hazmat suit, which doesn’t completely protect against radiation, to go in water. Oh and who has time to kill a mirelurk and then only be able to breathe under water for 30 minuets? The perk is pretty good

[@martinhall9497]

Moving Target being on this list is genuinely insane lol. Literally a life saving perk on survival.

[@odintillgren3212]

For talking about all these perks you should have been actually showing what the perks do rather than just a random mirelurk killing mission the whole time. If you're on PC you could have just made another file and console commands to give you all the levels you need to spend on these useless perks to show the viewer what you're talking about.

[@jennytalia6724]

+Odin Tillgren but had he done this he might've actually discovered a use for hipfire accuracy, which is a powerful tool in first person shooters and shouldn't be underestimated

[@odintillgren3212]

Personally I like Aquaboy because you don't have to carry around and equip the inferior Hazmat suit every time you go into water. Or a bunch of mirelurk cakes. As well as some other perks he downplayed.

[@jennytalia6724]

I just liked it on a female character because it shows her in a hot tub.

[@ALCvideoprofile]

VATS is a waste of ammunition if you are low on perception. I can't tell you how many shots I miss in vats even when I have a 60+ percent chance to hit. I free aim unless Im in a pinch and want to gamble on VATS accuracy.

[@hardcorescissors582]

I feel like Fallout 4 VATS has kinks. Or maybe I'm I just have shit luck with the RNG. I cannot tell you the amount of times I've missed at point clan range with 10 perception and 95 hit chance. I once had 3 shots loaded at 95 and missed all of them. They weren't even close misses, I'm talking like hitting the wall 5 feet away from my target.

[@nataliesanchez6896]

Its the absolute worst! I lose so much ammo on VATS sometimes 😩

[@Sylveeee]

It's useful once in a while if you have a crit build up because a crit is guaranteed to hit as long as the hit-chance isn't zero.

[@retrorunner984]

+Xanatos346 also one word deliverer

[@ALCvideoprofile]

I miss when critical hits were just a chance and not something you could control. Like when you roll a nat 20 in D&D

[@jasongrace129]

I forget what perks i have but i know one is quick hands and i can reload that combat rifle 3 times faster so it is useful

[@seanwayne4603]

The first level of the VANS Skill is pretty useless. But the +2 Perception from the second level is a good investment for a long range vats build, in my opinion. 13+ base perception (10 from maxing out, +2 from VANS lev 2 and +1 from the bobblehead), without gear or drug buff, makes you insanely accurate at extrem long ranges. Not a must have, but good too max out your hit chances at vats.

[@jamescrawford327]

Aquaboy/girl is really good especially on survival mode.

I don't, but it's useful for me cause well.. I ethier suck or just don't prepare.

[@neosildrake]

Cook the meat. It not only kills the radiation, it also strengthens the healing power and other effects it has. The miniscule amout of rad you take by consuming pre-war food is negligible. It might be different in survival mode.

[@RizoProduction]

This video does nothing but show that this guy probably plays on the easiest difficulty.. With remarks like "Lead belly is usles unless in Survival, but even then, thers purified water" and the other comment where he said "Reloading qucik isnt needed, this isnt call of duty where you're killed in half a second" You obviously havent done a playthrough in survival, cause guess what, you do die in half a second.. If you're not using power armer, one well placed shot from a rifle at either close range, or long range will end you.. The only thing useless here is this video..

[@THS_UH66]

RizoProduction If you're well along, an experienced combatant and an experienced Fallout 3 and New Vegas veteran like I am (optional) the easier it is to kill something, the easier the game is. I have no qualm playing on survival. Things can't reach me in time, I'm in no danger whatsoever. A Mythic Deathclaw dies in 20 5.56 bullets at Level 130, can't touch me.

[@TheMortalkombatant23]

RizoProduction Man, you must be pretty new to the game huh? If you don't know how to navigate yourself, and use positional awareness to your advantage, maybe you die quickly, but for those of us who are heavily experienced in fallout, survival might as well be normal difficulty. Maybe you should watch more videos junior, learn a thing or two.

[@Celisar1]

Anthony Ontiberoz RizProduction ist absolutely right about how useful some perks become especially in survival mode. And it's also true, that one single shot can kill you in survival mode, no matter how experienced you are. And that happens despite every tactical and strategical approach. So, don't brag about how easy you allegedly find it; it's called survival for a reason.

[@matthewturner361]

agreed. this guy does probably play on easy and never placed survival. don't need Leadbelly? pffft noob, Leadbelly is the 3rd most important perk in survival. get good then make a video

[@CloaksCosplays]

Faster reload doesnt mean a whole lot manually, but for certain weapons it can greatly increase your DPS in VATS.

[@GeorgeCowsert]

Dude, the hazmat suit is a fucking joke. If you use it only for the radiation protection, fine, but there's only a single place where you'd need such protection, which is the glowing sea. Don't keep the suit equipped or rely on it for everything, because you will die. Same goes for the vault suit. NEVER rely on it for radiation resistance. It's better to have those resistances built into your player because those suits aren't reliable.

[@olliemakesvideos125]

4:36 There is that one Power Armor perk where can run into enemies and they take damage so it may become useful in a situation like that, but to be honest that perk should be on this list too!

[@NEKOLORD42]

Yeah, like why have some of the other perks here, they are pretty good in a lot of situations, but that perk only works if you have power armor, which requires fusion cores, which are decently rare, so it's almost useless

[@Tritian4]

@@NEKOLORD42 eh I can get 5 cores from Arturo in diamon city, as well as some in goodneighbor for decent prices so not that rare. I am sitting at 50 cores right now on my playthrough
