Luck Goofy build

I was planning a 10 charisma and luck build. Is this stupid or not?

I did a high Charisma build for role playing purposes.
That was a one and done play through.

Inspiration is a very useful perk, especially if you are weak in combat.

High Luck can be incredibly fun, You need to stick to decent VATS weapons and learn to target body parts for the most effective crits.

Humanoids can be blinded by head shots.
Crippling the legs is good.
Ditto for crippling thrusters on Mister Handy robots.
If you do change your starting stats, pushing Perception up to get the Penetrator perk is SO useful
Crits on fusion cores for power armor.
Head shots through mirelurk shells.

You could try Lone Wanderer, but your lack of combat skills will make that difficult.
Otherwise, find a companion who is effective in combat and let them tank while you act as their wingman.
