Which is the best build for a Mr.House playthrough?

im speaking like a gunslinger build a laser weapons build etc since house uses robots i dont know what if a human worked for house before you what will he use?

A speech charismatic build for sure, who relies on companions to do your dirty work. So a decent charisma.

Maybe uses energy weapons but just pistols or one handed. Or just regular pistols. I'd really emphasise on speech, barter, repair, science, and secondary on combat skills like guns or energy weapons. That's what you got minions for.

After all you need 100 speech to pull off house's end game treaty.

I'm not quite sure what that means. Gameplay wise what is the best build? Speech is pretty much a must, while science is highly recommended. Sneak might be helpful, but just being tanky/strong enough to defeat some of the best end-game troops will work. If you mean in terms of roleplay suitability, anything at all will do. The House route ends up making you out as a sleek professional, so either a sneaky pistols user or a sniper would fit that best in my eyes.

Keep in mind that this game is very diverse with the skill checks presented. Most (not all) quests allow many different outcomes, and even those with only one outcome usually have multiple skill routes you can take to finish them. A majority of your skills will end up helping you down any route you go. Like mentioned above, speech is really the only one that pretty much every character should have, since skill checks in conversations are far less common than flat out speech checks

For Mr. House's image. imo, Energy weap (sci-fi mood) and Explosive (minor dmg from robot's grenades). Plus with Speech and Barter (like a business man). Invest in LUC for critical and gambling (as the king of Vegas). Also get boost up by OWB's cyborg perks.

But you may need high Science (pc pimp) to suit his taste too.

There are no builds in this game, really.
As for House, he mostly asks the same things as anyone else, only he usually has an exact outcome in mind.

But if you really want to have a "build", then someone who can solve problems, preferably without too much property damage. So, a charismatic character with good social skills, and also someone who does not shy away from getting their hands dirty if needed (so maybe guns+stealth or stealth+unarmed).
