Fallout 4 is out, and you can play it RIGHT NOW! How exciting is that? However, now that people can finally play Fallout 4, they are probably wondering how to make the best and strongest gear possible to dominate the Wasteland. Thanks to this crafting guide, you now have all the components, perks, and other information you need to get that awesome item.
Melee Crafting Tips
Character Tips
So you want to be a melee fighter, eh? Good choice, this play style is incredibly fun and rewarding. That is, if you have the right tools to knock heads in.
First off, since this is a strength-based build, you should have plenty of points in your Strength stat. You'll also want to save some for Intelligence.
From here, you'll definitely want to focus first on the Blacksmith perk. This will unlock access to many early melee weapon mods. There are three levels to Blacksmith, so make sure you keep adding points to the perk when they become available. Keep leveling up and adding to your skills until you have a high enough Intelligence to get the Science! perk. You'll only need the first rank in Science! to unlock all of the best melee weapon mods and upgrades.
Item Tips
Now that your character is all ready to craft, make sure you have the right components and supplies. Along with a base weapon such as a bat, pool cue, or tire iron, you'll need other supplies like adhesives, aluminum, and screws. The metal and gears and things are all pretty easy to come across in various toys, buckets, and other things like that. The real trick is getting enough adhesives.
ADHESIVES CRAFTING TUTORIAL
If you can't find enough Wonderglue or Duct tape around the Wasteland, you can still craft adhesives. First, get plenty of Tatos, Corn, and Mutfruit. From there, stock up on as much purified water as you can find. If you can't find any, you can cook three dirty waters to make one purified water.
Once you have Tatos, Corn, Mutfruit and Purified Water, go to a cooking station and make Vegetable Starch. This will give you a whopping 5 adhesives to craft with.
From there, just follow the spreadsheet below. All craftable melee weapons can be found, along with their properties, what they need to get made, and the weight and cost of each mod.
