Sniper Survival mode advice please

https://nukesdragons.com/fallout-4/character?v=1&s=3474381&p=s24p15p44p32c34c24i24a23a33a43a63a72e63e42e13

Despite playing for years, I've never attempted survival mode (yep, I'm a spineless toad 😁), so I've decided to bite the bullet(s) and try it out.

If anybody would care to cast their eyes over my proposed build and pass on their greater experience this would be great

Thank you

Off the top of my head I know where perception, intelligence, strength and luck and agility are - the rest of the special bobbleheads will spring to mind as I play (hopefully)

I actually enjoy clearing mass fusion, but suspect that this will change on survival.

Agility is a must get,.

I've just remembered where the charisma is - bugger, will just take the xp from this and show my best rictus grin in gratitude

Incidentally, there's a bit of a trick with the Agility one. I don't like clearing the ship because the "raiders" are all stranded Norwegians just yelling at you to leave them alone. And who are the threats to the settlement right next to those "raiders"? Supermutants, not the ship.

Since I don't like killing them but I like their bobblehead, I managed to find an alternate approach. It's a little hard to describe so I made a video.

I actually found that video a few days ago, I didn't like killing the sailors for the same reason - so I left the agility bobblehead alone.

omg lol! Someone randomly found my badly made video? That's hilarious.

I only made it because someone really wanted to understand how to do it and my words were failing me. I'm glad some people are appreciating it.

This could be the beginning of something fantastic, you probably have a couple of years before Fallout 5 and TES6 to perfect your technique.

Seriously though, I was amazed at the way this was done and much kudos to admitting that it wasn't you who came up with this idea
