First I want to say I am very happy that this game here exists. Fallout3 and plus just never got me really. I loved F1 and F2 the way it was.
Still I seem to have very much trouble here. For example: My character is level 21, wears combar armor and helmet Mark 2 and a quality plasma rifle with almost 200 EW skill. For me that sounds like a good gear to get some fight. I took the easy NRC raider quest and wow.. what the hell is wrong with raiders here? They all hit me in the eyes almost every hit for 100+ damage and I just wonder. Am I doing anything wrong? Is my character just too weak or that gear nothing worth?
In general I have the feeling combat is not very much worth. If I compare the hub rat quest (few XP, almost no pay) to what amount of XP and money I can make with just running around and salvage and then sell some basic crafted stuff, salvaging seems to be much more of a way to come forward.
So hmm am I missing something?
Is there any way to find some fighting (missions) with equal or a bit weaker enemies that pays off? Or is fighting just nothing a solo char should do at all (unless for some rats and geckos I guess
)
Maybe someone can give me a little bit of advice here? Thanks
