Fallout 76: Best & Worst Perk Cards by French Tomahawk

Thank you so much for making this into a post here. Did you catch why they rated Suppressor so low? I can only see that if its from a team perspective, doesn’t stack, and your teammate has taken it. That being said, I just may just misunderstand something obvious or perhaps they capped their Cha at X and other perks were just so much better in comparison?

Rejuv is one of thje best perks there is. Its +25 HP, +25 ap regen and +20% disease resist. for 2 points. To help people understand Lifegiver (which i think you missed from your list) is only 11.25 HP a point, and it provides no ap regen or disease resist.

Now is it more work to maintain sure, but its STRENGTH is not in question.

In PVP, if your opponent cripples you, you’re probably going to lose. You’ll be forced to retreat and heal while they’re still attacking you. Auto stim is similarly useful especially if you get staggered.

This list seems more like a perk lottery IMHO.

How can the best situational skill in the game (Wrecking Ball), which does extra 120% damage be on the last tier, same with Suppressor, one of the best defensive perk in the game which reduces 30% of all incoming damage of the enemy, also how a perk which turns irrelevant in few weeks (if not few days) like Inspirational be considered SUPER STRONG?

I’ll stop here…

First of all, before anything else, thanks for transferring this into text. It’s a nice service of you. NOW, this tier list is OK for the most part, even though there are some head-scratchers rated far too highly or far too low. The big problem though is that a tier list in this fashion isn’t particularly useful because you can have every single perk in the game. Tier lists in Fallout 76 need to be more focused on which perks you want to have equipped near-constantly and the other perks they have to compete with in their own SPECIAL stat because of this. It doesn’t really make sense ranking – say – crafting perks highly because anyone can just swap to them in CAMP and then swap right back.

I agree with this list, but I hope people don’t hold a high value to it for fear of a meta developing. A lot of the fun with Fallout games is role-playing and build-making, so everyone using a “generally good” perk set would take away from the fun.
