not enough perk points to focus on more than one weapon ?

[Buurt]

Soo I wanted to play Handgun + blades with tech for crafting and cool for the buffs but I quickly noticed that I can't even close to do that with only having 71 perk points in this game.

I either have to drop handgun or blades or do both of them not fully focused or I have to drop cool or crafting, its a shame this game has so many possibilitys and I always end up that I can't really use most of them without being locked out of another one.

Is it worth to do 2 weapons with half of the three full or should I just focus one weapon with full skill tree ?

Do you mean perk points or attribute points. Because you only get 71 attributes, but that isn't a problem for handguns and blades, they use the same main attribute (reflex) you can get over 100 perk points between the one unlocked as skills go up and the ones unlocked by perk shards.

Not really no, But if you want to make it easier, use Shotgun and Blunt, its part of the body attribute and you have to get that up anyway if you want to make your character more damage resistent, keep reflex at 3 cause its a waste of attribute and perk points cause thier is plenty of other ways you can boost the damage of AR/Blade/Pistol with such as weapon mods, clothing mods, sneak attacks, damean breech hacks (which reduces enemy damage resistance in the network), etc

Referring to Attributes obviously, I think it's more than enough or even so, should be a way to max, excluding mods, because maxing just 3 Attributes entirely doesn't do it's justice, as I keep pondering a second playthrough wanting to do crafting and guns or hacking of sorts with some combination, but already felt like I did everything

But I know what you mean, I'd like to have a mix of Attributes but still able to max a few without being halted, even though I played on Easy, as the casualist I am, I got to level 50 without progressing the story after the prologue, having done all gigs/ncpd when found/done along with side missions, even made sure stealth mission objectives, I'd go back after completion to get extra xp before leaving the area, which helped speed along xp in Ninjutsu, but all this was before I learned of the sleep skill bonus xp

I went Ninjutsu & Reflexes for Blades/Stealth damage for throwing knives and anything else, but I can understand where you are coming from, the amount of skill points needed compared to the amount of available enemies in the game at all halts any progress to acquire a ton of skill points to add any complimentary bonuses without having to respec every time you want to play a different sort of way

This is why I don't know if I want to bother playing a second playthrough, I just recently beat the game today, but not enough attributes, variety in gameplay style to warrant any new taste, as I went with stealth, did some guns after I mastered Ninjutsu, but even then, the guns didn't level up even having the xp bonus towards the end of the game

While I know some sections of the game have respawning enemies, there's not really enough enemies in the game if you ended up doing everything, then you have no way of even leveling anything else, needs more activities or at least respawning wars or sections to be viable to level up multiple skills

But after the first playthrough, and experiencing pretty much everything I could, I feel like a second playthrough would make me want to just give myself max attributes, as I feel I lost out on a lot of dialogue options because you need specific attribute levels for such a thing, but the game seems too watered down for a single playthrough only and wouldn't offer me much other than those few dialogues missed

Good Luck & Have Fun
