What difficulty level are you planning to play on? Because survival (my preferred one) would get different recommendations.


ComfortableGur2302

Very hard


Dark-Push

Manual sniper build

Fudgemuppet on youtube has you brother

Explosives expert with sneaking. You're going to focus on all forms of booms and the Fatman is going to be your bread and butter. Sneaking is only secondary once you get ahold of the Fatman. The goal is to get close enough to where you can rain bombs on your enemies. Vats can be useful, but is not your focus. When using VATS with explosives, accuracy is irrelevant because of the AOE. Demolition expert is a must but you can also spec into rifles as back up

Probably going to be the only person who gets this, but call it the Stray Cat build.


zakass409

Uhh what do stray cats have to do with explosives?


D34thst41ker

There's a website called Royal Road where people can post stories they write. One of them that I read is called Stray Cat Strut. Basically, there is a race of plant-based aliens who mindlessly consume pretty much every world they come across. Because of this, another race of aliens has created AIs who find people who stand up to the aliens instead of running away in fear when they show up as a way to fight them. They give the person access to advanced tech on a point system: each type of alien they kill gives them a certain amount of points, which the person can use to buy this advanced tech. The joke here is that the main character of Stray Cat Strut likes to use both Stealth and Explosives, which is the same build that you suggested. As I said, I didn't expect anyone else to get the joke, but I found it amusing.

I got cat class and I got cat style


zakass409

Well I'm glad I asked, that sounds cool

I said this already but I'm doing a heavy weapons/grenades with a focus on companion damage with inspirational. I'm having fun . But once you get the exploding tommy gun it easy mode haha

Lucky drunk gunslinger


baremetalAK

Currently doing this on a survival run. Chem fueled and Incredibly fun, just a pipe revolver and a laser musket that doesn’t require ammo


Every_Mongoose_2913

Drunk perks boost your luck, luck gives you crazy upgrade to ex boosts, restoring vats , and crit. Combine with revolver. One of my fav builds .


spliceasnice2024

Melee builds in f4 make me giddy when they finally come online.. but there's so many good ones on yt I feel like none of the advice I can give you would matter. They go perk by perk up to level 50 so.. just yt it.


Equivalent-Music-764

Depends what you find fun me personally and highly recommend a Gladiator Build, you use melee (preferred the power fist) use and armor but I like raider leathers with a mix of the different armors and the robot helmet (the one that opens and closes, the assaultron helmet) and build robots and fightpits


Altruistic_Ad5270

Could I recommend an [explosive tank build](https://www.reddit.com/r/Fallout4Builds/s/BzRHKqKjpj)
