You can substitute this for unarmed if you so choose. Melee: By keeping a backup weapon you'll never be in danger if you run low on ammo, and melee in New Vegas is so powerful.

Survival: Your main tool to combat the true dangers everything faces.

P - 5 The average man or woman won't catch subtle things, but they aren't blind either. S - 6 As a survivalist you'll want higher than average strength, I deliberately gimped my character's strength cause I knew I wasn't going to use weapons with a strength requirement above 6 It can still be played on normal but it would be a major disservice as hardcore mode is really fun. This is a build meant for surviving hardcore mode.

You are one of those whose ancestors survived the end of the world, will you survive? When they opened, their inhabitants set out across ruins of the old world to build new societies, establish new villages, form new tribes.
