SPECIAL- Attribute Points
Starfield’s character creation is vast, but it lacks the iconic depth of Fallout’s SPECIAL system. This creation brings that beloved system to Starfield, letting you define your character’s strengths and weaknesses from the start. At the beginning of your journey, assign points to seven unique attributes that shape your playthrough, creating a truly distinct experience.
Attributes
-Strength: Boosts carry weight, melee/unarmed damage, and determines the weight of weapons you can wield effectively. -Perception: Sharpens your awareness, improving ranged weapon damage. -Endurance: Enhances physical resilience, boosting health, oxygen regeneration, and the ability to wear heavier spacesuits without penalties. -Charisma: Governs social skills, reducing prices, improving persuasion success, and extending the duration of scanner-based social abilities. -Intelligence: Fuels academic prowess, increasing XP gains, reducing crafting/research costs, and speeding up ship weapon recharge times. -Agility: Improves dexterity, enhancing movement speed, stealth effectiveness, and partial dodge capabilities against enemy attacks. -Luck: Amplifies all attributes by adding a percentage of your Luck score to each, making fortune a game-changer.
Customization
Fine-tune every aspect of the SPECIAL system via the gameplay options menu. Adjust the number of starting points or the impact of each attribute to suit your playstyle.
New Game Plus
As you traverse the Unity into New Game Plus, your character grows stronger, earning three SPECIAL points per cycle. After passing the Unity ten times, your character can max out all attributes by default, offering a rewarding progression arc.
Compatibility
This creation is built for seamless integration. Place it anywhere in your load order, it plays well with other creations or upcoming DLCs, ensuring a smooth experience.
