Best way around that is to get Explosives up early on and get the three ranks of Demolition Expert. If you're planning to do a dedicated Grunt character using just the weapons named in the Perk your main weakness is you don't have a high damage heavy hitter for high DT critters and npcs. I'd suggest Service Rifle and either a 9mm SMG or Grenade Rifle when you're starting out then upgrade to a Marksman Carbine and Riot Shotgun as you level up. For the third skill you could make a case for Survival, Medicine or Explosives.įor Traits I'd say Skilled then either Trigger Discipline (if you lke to run and gun at Full Auto) or Fast Shot (if you figure you're more the Designated Marksman kind of guy)Īs far as weapon combos go Rifle and Pistol seems more of a SWAT/MP kind of load out. Any more lucky you'd have a soft Rear Echelon posting.)įor Tag skills Guns is a given as is Repair (soldiers learn a lot from keeping busted crap running). Luck 5 (If you were less lucky you'd already be dead. Int 6 (You have to be a little sharper than average or they won't trust you on any solo missions.)Īgi 7 (Weapon drills and hand to hand add up.) Per 5 (If you were more perceptive you would have been recruited for Recon.)Įnd 6 (Same as strength, you don't have time for marathon running.)Ĭha 5 (Soldiers have to get along with the other guys in their unit or they won't last too long.) Str 6 (Real Infantry are too busy standing sentry, doing KP or on patrols for body building but hauling all your kit makes you a little above average.) Well, assuming a Grunt is an average kind of guy I'd go for a Special set up of:
Speaking of leave, have some civilian clothing with you for Vegas visits and the like. Taking our squatters in Northern Vegas is not your duty and if you do so, I'd suggest wearing your "on leave" outfit while doing that. Carry a small amount of rations with you (caravan lunches are best for this!) Furthermore, do not do "hero quests" unless it involves you helping the NCR. Pistol is rarely carried by troopers as modern assault rifles are superior in every way even in close quarters combat. Even a bayonet (combat knife) might be pushing it. Using unique weapons anyhow for a "grunt" ruins the RP anyway and just makes you another Courier wearing NCR armor.Īlso, if you want real military feel note that troopers rarely carry more than one weapon. Very efficient killer, to boot.Ī "grunt", that is a conscript, draftee, otherwise regular trooper would not go around using a highly customized version of an already rare rifle with non-standard issue ammunition.
Isn't This Machine considered a military 'grunt-class' weapon? If so, hard to beat that for classic gruntability.
