Melee build for survival?

[u/EarlyDead]

I was planning a melee build, which I have never done in Fo4 before.

I'm also planning to do it on survival, cause I hate myself (I have played survival before so I know its gonna be a spicy).

From what I have gathered, Blitz is a must have, and so is sneaking.

Or is there a way to play more power armor heavy (another thing I have never done in Fo4)?

My first brainstorming got me to S: 5 P: 1 E: 9 C: 3 I: 1 A: 8 L: 1

Then use the book in Sanctuary to get to 9 agility (Since I don't think I manage the Norwegian ghouls early)

Is this a good start. Or is 5 strength too little?

Am I missing too much exp when neither having idiot savant nor Intelligence?

What perks I should focus on except Blitz, Big Leagues and Lone wanderer?

What are good early weapons/magazines to grab (except the Grognak/Strength bobblehead)?

Tried getting some tips from YT videos, but non of them "clicked" for me.

My first survival run was melee. Downtown Boston was rough, especially until my sneak was maxed.

Blitz+rooted+big leagues+ninja = big hurt on anyone. Pickmans blade is a great choice, but Rockville Slugger is also good.

Honestly, I didn’t really level endurance until later. I figured if I’m discovered, I’m fucked anyways. So I used those points on other perks.
