%%%%%% Frequently Asked Questions %%%%%%

A: Charisma / 2. One more if you have the magnetic personality perk.

Q: I'm stuck! How can I move someone out of my way?
A: In the popup menu there's a push command. Next time, read the manual
   asshole!

A: You have to rescue Smiley. Look in the Klamath section.

Q: Where can I get Jet antidote?

%%%%%% Character Creation %%%%%%

The key to character creation is mainly to have a theme and stick to it.
A doctor/small guns character doesn't need 10 strength and 10 endurance.
Any combat character can benefit heavily from 10 agility however.

Also, certain skills are mainly beneficial in even increments.
3 Charisma isn't all that useful because the number of NPCs you can have
is Charisma/2 rounded down, so you'd only be able to take one. Stick to
2 or 4 instead. Of course, with 3 Charisma, you'd still get the other
benefits over 2, but number of NPCs is a major sub-stat of Charisma.

Excellent skills:

Small Guns     - You'll be using small guns very early on, and with excellent
               guns using this skill later on, it can easily see you through
               the game. Almost any character will want this tagged.

Varyingly Useful Skills:

Unarmed        - For serious combat, you're probobly better off with a gun.
               However, characters proficient in Unarmed can participate in
               a few extra quests.
Big Guns       - Big Guns is great when you need to rack up that damage fast,
               however guns that use this skill tend to churn through huge
               amounts of ammo, or use very heavy ammo like rockets. A
               hardcore combat character will probobly want this tagged.
Energy Weapons - There are some very good guns that use this skill, however,
               there's usually better small or big guns to choose from.
               Don't let damage values fool you, when you factor in the
               +50% damage bonus that 2mm EC ammo does, the Gauss Rifle
               does just about as much damage as the Plasma Rifle, and
               has better armor penetration as well as a bonus to hit.
Doctor         - Doctor can be pretty handy. It heals more than First Aid,
               can repair broken limbs, and is used for a bunch of quests.

Nearly useless skills:

First Aid     - Why bother with first aid when doctor can heal broken limbs,
              heal more hit points, and is used in various dialogs.
Gambling      - Money is better earned/saved by stealing or bartering.


%%%%%% Perks %%%%%%

Excellent perks:

Living Anatomy - This perk is damn good. +5 damage with ANY attack to living
                 creatures. Note that 98% of the enemies you encounter are
                 living. Also note that this is like getting 2 1/2 levels of
                 bonus ranged damage, and 5 levels of bonus melee damage,
                 since bonus melee damage only effects your MAXIMUM damage,
                 so in effect only does +1 average damage, whereas this does
                 +5 period. Also gives a small bonus to doctor.
Sniper         - Basically makes your critical hit chance (luck * 10)%
Bonus ROF      - Quite tasty.
Bonus Move     - +2 ap for movement is a good thing. Shoot that deathclaw,
                 then back the fuck up.

Nearly useless perks:

Adren. Rush    - Is the +1 to strength in combat only with 50% or lower HP
                 really worth it? Note that the +1 may not even affect your
                 melee damage.
Here and Now   - You gain a level. I'm sure you can find something better to
                 take.
Demol. Expert  - With the 75% traps needed to get this perk, your explosives
                 are almost guaranteed to go off on time at any rate.
Pathfinder     - There is only one time based quest, related to the Ghost
                 Farm arc in Modoc. This can easily be solved in time, and so
                 this perk is useless.  
Snakeater      - Are you seriously taking damage from poison enough that this
                 small reduction in damage will help? If you somehow answered
                 yes, try taking Lifegiver instead.

he may sharpen yours. You can either steal the flint from your aunt, give
her three healing powders, or talk her out of it.

Hakunin will ask you to cleanse his garden. Simply kill the evil looking
plants in the garden outside his tent.

you a bonus to unarmed and one to melee.


%%%%%% Klamath %%%%%%

Lootiecakes:

- There is a fuel injection system for the car at the other end of the rat
caves in Trapper Town. It will double the car's mileage.

Good Steals:

- You can steal a leather jacket and a sledgehammer off of Sulik.

[2.1] Quest: Refuel the still.

Whiskey Bob in the Buckner House will give you this quest. Simply head
to the southern exit off screen and make your way down to the cabin,
killing or avoiding the geckos along the way. Pick up the wood, use it on
the still, and return and collect your payment.

[2.2] Quest: Rescue Smiley the Trapper.

If you talk to one of the women she'll tell you her husband Smiley is
missing. If you rescue him from the toxic caves, he will teach you how to
skin geckos.

is the exit above the one that goes to trapper town. Rescue him and get
200 exp. 

[2.6] Quest: Kill the rat god.

Slim the trapper in Trapper Town has a key to an area filled with rats. A
huge rat resides underground. Kill it.

[2.7] John Sullivan

John Sullivan in the Golden Gecko can teach you how to fight and give you
a +10% bonus to your unarmed and melee skills.

[2.8] NPC: Sulik

You can get Sulik to join your party for free after you rescue Smiley, or
if you pay off his debt, or if you complete the "Rescue Torr" quest. I 
reccommend giving him a submachine gun or 14mm pistol to start and a .223
pistol later. Melee and unarmed are nearly useless once you start fighting
enemies with burst weapons.

you $2000, 5 fusion cells, 5 small energy cells, and a plasma grenade.

[3.2] Quest: Get book from Derek.

After you give President Tandi's assistant the Vault 15 spy holodisk, you
can steal it back and give it to him, again and again. Gaining 4000 exp.
and the reward money each time! 1.0 only.

In NCR, if you let Jack blow himself up and damage the computer, fix it
like normal for your 3000exp. and books reward. Fix it again, get rewarded
again... and again...

After you rescue Smiley, you can ask him to tell you stories about Geckos
over and over... Each time getting a bonus to your outdoorsman skill. 1.0
only.

Oddly enough, it's possible to barter with Darian before the fight begins.
Obviously trading him something useless for his stimpacks and ammo is a
good idea. 1.0 & 1.02
