Does it make sense to use nerd rage perk with born survivor perk (auto stim below 20% hp) if i running full health?
Any benefits from nerd in that case?

Something like Ricochet would be much better IMO.

Rather get Adrenal Reaction mutation, it starts buffing damage earlier, buffs more than Nerd Rage and you save perk points.

born survivor for sure in case you take a lot of damage but using nerd rage perk when in fact running full health is a complete waste of good perk points.

in very few situations it can be useful
it really depends how you imagine a specific scenario involving those 3

i've been running with a couple unyielding solar armor pieces lately
both are quite useless to each other no argument there
i use born survivor for that build so similar
i do this because i medic tank when high health most of the time, but i sometimes need a quick damage killer moment (usually because of time-restrictions, hardly happens btw)

nerd rage i'd quickly equip (+ i have already the lifegiver perk card, field surgeon, first aid)

In Charisma.... 3* Supresser and tenderizer I always use, just think they are better imo.

you just need the rank 1 born survivor, it's always a part of my low health unyielding loadout.

sometimes you get hit hard and are in vats or getting staggered so you can't stim yourself, it procs often in these cases.
