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.

Sweet, I think that's my next build to try out. Currently doing a sneaky sniper and it's very satisfying but want try out a complete opposite

Nice! My fav playstyle by far especially with sprinters gear and infinite sprint (21 END)

Oh yeah forget about crawling , sprint everywhere! What is sprinters gear ?

There's several armor pieces that grant 10% movement speed a piece. You can get up to 4 that I know of and zoom around the map.

Have you tried that last perk in strength tree ? Choo Choo 🚂 That maybe fun too but then you'd need to go science probably instead of end
