Perk Points for scrapping cards?

[Vyper]

What do I do with these? I read somewhere I use the to level up my cards, but I just tested it and ranked up a couple and they didn't cost me anything?

Legendary perk cards you need perk points for not regular cards.

1 star cards are worth 2 perk coins, 2 star cards = 4 perk coins, etc
above your deck you can see Legendary cards button
perk coins are needed to upgrade those cards
but be careful before you invest
CHAR legendary is bad bad to invest (just warning you lol, coz i did that first time it rolled out)

Perk coins are used for levelling legendary perks. Regular cards are levelled with duplicates of the same card.

Legendary perks unlock after level 50. There are 6 slots in total and will unlock
the 6th one at level 300. When you are on your perks screen at the very top you will see legendary perks.

To choose a legendary perk is free but it costs 1 coin to remove a legendary perk. The perk will stay levelled when you remove it. So you can swap them in and out like normal perks but it cost you 1 coin each time. If you choose well you don't need to swap, but the legendary ammo crafting perk is good to swap in and out as it does nothing when you are not crafting ammo just like regular crafting perks. Or if you have more than one build on your character you can swap legendary perks to suit.

Do some research or ask on here about legendary perks for your build before you decide and then make mistakes, as they can be costly. Legendary SPECIALS except for Charisma are a solid choice.

SPEcIAL are good choices (lower case C cause they intentionally bugged charisma to not work right)

Taking one for the team is a straight 1.5x damage multiplier to anything that aggros on you, can take a second to go into effect though

Follow through is a straight 1.5x damage multipler IF you land a stealth shot but doesn't always trigger right away, and only works if NOTHING has aggroed the enemy (hence it very rarely will work vs earle and almost never vs SBQ)

Funky Duds can cover to near immunity poison damage (earle and a few other sources) one of the few things that can kill unyielding defensive builds (but only if they give it 5-10 seconds of not using any form of heal and bathing in the poison)

Ammo Factory is a popular mistake people get it but its so totally unnecessary

The melee ones are poor for most of us as melee is a bad option in the game

The explode on kill ones are poor

The rest are bad

Pretty much aim for

4-6 SPEcIAL point ones (20-30 extra points to spend in your build)
Taking one for the team
Follow through

why intentionally?
it's such an investment of coins

The Charisma perk card adds Charisma points, but those added points don't count towards the ability to share perk cards with teammates. The charitable view is that it's a deliberate play-balance choice, most players say it's deliberate nerfing, while I suspect it's just an oversight they just never got around to fixing, kinda like the inability to learn Radium Rifle mods from scrapping.

If you want to get more Charisma, you can always put a legendary perk in something you don't want it, and then transfer the regular points over to CHA.

You can learn radium rifle mods from scrapping, just the drop rate is bugged or intentional to be the same as the low and very low drop rate of armour mods ( 0.65% and 0.45% per scrap). It is not the drop rate similar to other weapons. Because it is so low players scrap heaps and get nothing and assume they don't drop at all, but they do.

I learnt my radium rifle mods from scrapping ones i crafted. Think there is still one or two i don't know but i got all the mods i wanted to use so i stopped trying for more.

guessing the suppressor is the 1 that makes players skip the radium
not sure how many i'm missing, but can attach the suppressor for anyone who wants it
i actually want to help with that , because the radium deserves a chance too
