Which perks are the best to get after cooking? Which negative "perks" are the most wise to choose? Let me know what you think!

See Farther, Infinite running, Scream, Vitality, Chameleon and Acid Blood are all good ones

Shadows, Poison Vulnerability, Weakness, Shaky Hands for negative perks

Imho the negative skills you shouldn't choose are:
- Fearful (Poison Vulnerability is a better choice, because poison damage can easily be avoided, I don't think there are even enemies that cause poison damage)
- Weak Lungs (Stamina regeneration is way more important than less damage when stamina is low, you will mostly use firearms at some point anyway)
- Shaky Hands (Ammunition is too important to waste, and shaky hands doesn't help with that. Weak regeneration in comparison sounds worse at first glance, but isn't actually that bad considering you can also get Vitality)

For the first tier, see further is just instant pickup, after that moth can be cool if ur exploring and u find a house whit generator u can heal urself, sure its not that good but navigator is absolute garbage, mushroom healing is pretty gud to. Second tier third eye is SO ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ GOOD that ♥♥♥♥ will save ur ass a lot, other than that runner is pretty good at times, i dont really like acid blood, the damage isnt enough and u dont wanna get hit. for negative second tier go whit posion, if u carry like 1 antidote on u it dosnt even have an impact while fearfull is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ anoying. Third tier id say appetite is really good, makes u do something whit that useless wood and its overhall pretty gud, carefull step is garbage, if ur carefull u never trigger ur own traps exept on occasions and u wont have the time to use the skill when it happens. scream is usefull to but u can just kill the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ and u dont care because u can eat wood. third negative is up to you, i preffer weak lungs, because u have to make it hit zero which can be avoided preatty easely if ur carefull, while weakness triggers when its low. Fourth tier i always go adrenaline first beacuse if u use the pitchfork its really good, and after that its up to u, id say vitality is better for that extra half bar which is almost always usefull, while cameleon can only be usefull at night.Negatve shaky hands is just suicide when u get to the old woods and the swamp and worst regeneration isnt even that bad.

For me I choose for the first 6 or so nights not to collect mushrooms or upgrade anything and I only use my fuel for making planks. Usually end up with 5+ cans of gas and many planks, I feel like none of the perks (exspecially with the negative traits) are even worth using.

I see you have different opinions than I do... this won't be a problem, now, will it? :)

Moth is useless. The odds of finding random light sources isn't enough imo. Every morning you heal anyway, so you don't need it then.

Appetite is also trash. You should have more than enough rags to craft healing items that you shouldn't need to eat wood. If you are good at combat then you shouldn't need it.

Scream is amazing. Whenever you are outnumbered it helps alot..

well my friend indeed we have different views, i love having a discussion whit somebody who has another point of view, moth honestly isnt that bad but ur right it is pretty useless mushroom is a lot better in almost all cases, honestly about appetite id say its not trash its pretty handy actually, ur right i always have more than enough rags for anything and i dont use them very often, seeing that i dont really take that much damage since when u learn the paterns u generally stop taking alot of damage, idk for u but thats what happened to me. appetite is good because its just a way of geting rid of wood, and it helps whit healing because it dosnt heal much meaning i can refil my health bar if im missing any health, and wood is a lot easier to get than rags even if u do actually get like 6+ stacks of rags as soon as u do some searching in silent but i find that making bandages out of the rags and just selling them actually gives me quite a big amount of rep very quicky, while i just eat wood to heal.
honestly id agree whit u that appetite is not the best, its just different, i love the playstyle it gives u which is simply sell bandages and eat wood. granted what do i do whit all that rep? well not much actually BUT ANYWAY ITS FUN ALRIGHT EATING WOOD IS PRETTY FUN.

i never loved scream i though it was garbage since the guys would run away and i dont get the loot. im one of those pick ur fights kinda guy where if ill go in its generaly because i know im going to win, even at night i though it would be decent if it could scare banshees but maybe its me but that also failled. overall i have a bad oppinion of scream, i find that im just better of fighting the enemies anyway since even in the marsh i had few uses for it.

I haven't tested it but moth seems kind of useless until you consider that it's a free regen during fights at night (you'll always need to be near an electric light source at night) so it's basically a slot-free regen.
Oc Aug 26, 2017 @ 7:25pm 
Maybe I haven't been playing long enough but I seem to have more then enough healing items without needing the skills for healing, guess that also depends on play style.

both the well and the morning heal you to full health, so unless you're usually in one room only, you shouldn't need moth. Navigator and far-sight are great pickups, nav. can help you to quickly return home if you're short on time.

navigator might be legit the worse ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ skill in the game for me id take anything over it, i did a laythrough where i grabed it and even then i didnt find 1 sitution where it was usefull, u always know where u are if ur close to a landmark now so.....
Oc Aug 27, 2017 @ 3:07pm 
Agreed, hell they might aswell tell you exactly where you are because the landmarks are so often it hardly makes a difference. I always know where I am.

hey dude also ur pretty right on the "take no skills" thing, u get ridiculous amounts of gas to do random ♥♥♥♥ like making a swastika then lighting it or ♥♥♥♥ like that, also u can set ♥♥♥♥ on fire when they break through ur window, its pretty great and ur not really missing on anything. EXEPT i dont know yet if u can get the code for the church basement whithout the church dream need more testing.
