Just curious. The 76 Lemmy community is kinda entirely fucking dead and I’m banned from Reddit so I can’t post there. Is there a better place to discuss and chat about 76? I’m feeling lost and somewhat lonely without being able to chat on the subreddit.
If you want to add me feel free. I don’t use a mic because I’m super insecure about my voice, but I’ll team up and we can do events and raids with others in a public team or something. I always try to share helpful perks like Green Thumb, Rejuvenated, or if I’m feeling silly, Cola Nut.
The problem with Green Thumb being a shared perk, I think, is that usually if people are doing much harvesting, they’re doing a “harvesting run”, and then they’re probably using Green Thumb themselves.
I remember spending a long time trying to figure out what perks:
Were useful-enough that people would get use out of them.
Didn’t require a build to be specialized around them (since other players probably won’t do that).
Weren’t super-scenario-specific (else people might not be doing whatever they’re useful for or might just change up their build for doing that).
Weren’t so vital that someone would already have them.
I’m having a hard time, embarrassingly-enough, remembering what I was sharing last.
I think that I tended to grab some of the team-based perks (like, anyone on a team tended to benefit). Inspirational, say. Only one person needs to share it, but it’s always gonna help someone on a team.
Pretty sure I remember doing Rejuvenated and Tenderizer.
IIRC, I tried Squad Maneuvers for a while, until I read some analysis that pointed out that if you have the Speed Demon mutation, you’re nearly at the maximum movement rate cap.
I’ve read some people who swear by using Cold Nut and then relying on Nuka-Cola variants. I remember trying it and just not being that satisfied by it, but now I can’t remember why.
I think that it was either that gathering Nuka-Cola was a pain (some around the Nuka-Cola plant, and the Nuka-Cola Collectron can get them slowly, was one of the more-useful collectrons) or that one couldn’t bind a D-pad button to it when playing with a gamepad the way one could stimpaks.
Thanks for the write up! I hadn’t thought of Green Thumb that way. I guess I’m a herbivore so I value it on all my builds but most don’t. I’ll start sharing concentrated fire I think, on my rifle build. It’s low charisma. I’ll continue sharing Rejuvenated. It’s a nice passive buff that many overlook.
The VATS one was complimented some for me if I had a low enough version to share. Anything that makes things lighter can be good on runs.
Hmm, that’s a good idea sharing concentrated fire. I’ll start doing that on my rifle build. Thanks!
