Class perks

Class perks are FOnline 3's unique take on character classes.

Any given character can only have one class perk, but three of the classes (Alien, Cyborg, and Robot) have flexibility in the role they fulfil.

With the exception of the three "flex" classes, all class perks assign the character that picked them a specific role.

There are six roles available: tank, semi-tank, specialist, damage dealer (DPS), shooter, and sneaker.

Each of the six roles gives you a different baseline, influencing the number of action points you start with, your initial health pool, how much damage you output, and more; see the table below for details.

Class roles

• Tanks survive to support the team, whether through buffs (Leader), healing (Priest), or simply being a huge bullet sponge holding the front line (Super Mutant). They have great defensive capabilities, but their damage is low, and they constantly find themselves out of action points.
• Semi-tanks are versatile front-line fighters with both a significant health pool and decent damage. They all have a unique ace up their sleeve, be it a couple of extra perks (Chosen One), sheer luck (Random Boy), or an evil twin (Clone).
• Specialist classes focus on taking full advantage of their unique ability to take a specific combat mechanic to a level unachievable by any other class; they may have access to nearly limitless action points (Raider), superpowered traits (Regulator), or the ability to rapidly close distance with their opponent (Combat Master).
• Damage dealer (DPS) classes have one purpose: providing a high sustained damage output. They start with a high damage multiplier (1.1x) and gain deadly abilities, such as doubled lethal damage (Wrecker) or improved item perks (Hubologist), at the cost of their already limited defensive capabilities.
• Shooters are the glass cannons of FOnline 3, deadly at long range but completely helpless otherwise. Their unique abilities, such as heavy sniper rifles never missing (Sniper) or significantly increased critical power (Robobrain), are focused on long-range combat and nothing else.
• Sneakers are fragile but lethal ambush predators. They may be able to attack without de-sneaking (Assassin) or deal massive additional damage to characters low on health (Scout), but stand little chance in open combat.

Each role confers one unique bonus and one unique penalty:

Role	Bonus	Penalty
Tank	+200% damage multiplier vs. other tanks	Enemies gain +8% Lethality against you
Semi-tank	Damage-per-bullet cap increased by 50%	-20% critical damage resistance
Specialist	+30% critical damage resistance against Shooters	-20 HP restored using meds
Damage dealer	+10 lethal damage; +4% Lethality	Enemies gain +30% damage multiplier against you
Shooter	Incoming damage from tanks capped at 50	Your damage per bullet bonus is set to -1
Sneaker	-2 AP cost of firing burst weapons	Aimed attacks cost three times the normal amount

Class perks

Class perk selection defines your character's core identity and their place in the six-role system.

Each class perk grants a unique set of abilities, limitations, bonuses, and penalties that fundamentally change your gameplay experience.

As of Patch 6.4.1, twenty-three unique class perks are available.

Alien

Alien Min. Level 45 Role Flex SPECIAL +3 Intelligence SPECIAL scaling Intelligence: Crafted gear gets 5000 additional XP Fury Lose 1% damage protection Rage 4x weapon experience for 10 s Drawbacks Cannot use non-Alien weapons; Agility: +1 reload cost PvE ability 5% of damage applied as radiation to NPCs Favorite weapon ETG (ignores electric immunity) Base crit roll 0–50 (unlinked); 0–10 (Tank); 0–20 (Semi-tank); 0–30 (DPS); 0–50 (Shooter); 0–80 (Sneaker) Acquisition Necropolis (36:39) (picture)

Alien is a flex class, with its role determined by the weapon it's ~linked to. When linked to ETG3000, Alien is a tank; When linked to IPF210, semi-tank; When linked to LAR62, damage dealer; When linked to SSR10, shooter; When linked to ESR02, sneaker. Linking has a 60-second cooldown. You will be prompted to link if you attempt to use a weapon you're not linked to. For base stats, see the stats-by-role table. Alien receives several powerful bonuses: +50 to the Crafting skill cap. When using the Learning skill to boost Crafting, the increased cap is filled immediately without requiring additional skill points (e.g., 250/250 goes to 260/260 rather than 250/260). 66% chance to apply a critical effect (such as crippling) on a critical hit, instead of the standard 33%. Ability to craft and use Alien-exclusive weapons. Regular weapons can also be crafted by Aliens; they just can't use them. Access to a set of unique Alien-exclusive weapon perks.

Assassin

Assassin Min. Level 90 Role Sneaker SPECIAL +3 Perception SPECIAL scaling Perception: +1% critical chance Drawbacks Damage reduced by 75% if de-sneaked; Agility: -1% damage PvE ability +25% critical chance vs. NPCs Favorite weapon Range Pistols (+1% crit chance for each hex between you and the target) Base crit roll 0–90 Acquisition The Hub (31:40), Old Town (picture)

Assassin is a master of stealth, always looking to punish exposed targets. For base stats, see the stats-by-role table. There are many unique advantages to being an Assassin: You are 50% Noiseless. You have a 10% chance to enter sneak after performing any action, even if observed. You gain +16 Stealth when the battle timer is active. Note: The extra critical chance equal to the distance to your target (in hexes) from Assassin's favorite weapon bonus can push your critical chance above 100% and is not reduced by the target's critical chance resistance.

Bounty Hunter

Bounty Hunter Min. Level 80 Role Damage dealer SPECIAL +3 Luck SPECIAL scaling Luck: Attack delay reduced by 1% Drawbacks Endurance: -3% crit power PvE ability Deal 1% of target NPC's max HP as bonus damage. Favorite weapon Plasma Weapons (no HP-based crit roll penalty) Base crit roll 0–75 Acquisition Klamath (8:2), Trapper Town (picture) Bounty power calculation  Bounty power determines how many bounty stacks Bounty Hunter applies per hit. It is calculated as follows: Step 1: Add up the ranks of your weapon perks, keeping in mind that rank F = 1, rank E = 2, rank D = 3, rank C = 4, rank B = 5, rank A = 6, rank S = 7, rank S+ = 8, then find your result's corresponding value in the bounty power bonus column of the table below. Perk rank sum Bounty power bonus 0–17 +0 18–33 +1 34–50 +2 51+ +3 Step 2: Add a value based on your weapon type from one of the tables below to the value from step 1. For conventional weapons: Weapon type Base bounty power Fast Pistols, Damage Knives, Damage Pistols, Fast Knives, Rocket Launchers, Punch Weapons, Hammers, Clubs, SMGs 1 Range Pistols, Machine Guns, Assault Rifles, Flamers, Miniguns, Explosive Small Guns 2 Shotguns, Support Rifles 3 Sniper Rifles 4 Heavy Sniper Rifles 5 For energy weapons: Weapon name Base bounty power Laser Pistol, Plasma Pistol, Electric Zip Gun, Magneto-Laser Pistol, Solar Scorcher, Plasma Pistol MKII, Pulse Pistol, Alien Blaster, Commissar's Pistol 1 Signal Pistol, Plasma SMG, ELECTRO Launcher, Fire Rifle, Gatling Laser, Heat Machine 2 Laser Rifle, Turbo Plasma Rifle, Electro Cannon 3 Plasma Rifle, Prototype 14, Plasma Gatling, Turbolaser 4 Pyro Rifle, Pulse Rifle 5 Step 3: Apply miscellaneous bonuses and penalties. +1 if your weapon's tier is above 3. +1 if your attack's damage is above 350. ‑1 if your attack's damage is below 100. ‑1 if your attack was not a critical hit. ‑1 if the target has the In Your Face! perk. ‑1 if you have the Quick Fingers perk synergy. Step 4: Apply the lower cap (0) and the upper cap (7). Step 5: You now know your bounty power! Use the table below to find out how many bounty stacks it will allow you to apply to your target. Bounty power Bounty stacks applied 0 0 1 1 2 1–2 3 1–4 4 1–6 5 1–8 6 4–8 7 8 Note: The Strike bonus of 10 additional bounty stacks is separate from this calculation.

Bounty Hunter is a PvP-focused damage dealer class with a powerful debuffing ability. For base stats, see the stats-by-role table. Being a Bounty Hunter has many benefits. Critical roll bonuses scaling with your and your target's combined base crit chance (bonuses from weapons and perks do not apply). +1% critical power for each 10 points of Sight range. +0.5 Sight range per point of critical chance. Automatically marking targets for 4 seconds. Access to the unique "bounty stacking" mechanic. Bounty Hunter applies "bounty" stacks on hit that reduce the target's damage by 1% per stack. Bounty stacks can only be applied to players. Bounty power determines the number of bounty stacks per hit; the cap on stacks from bounty power is 8. Strike applies 10 additional Bounty stacks to the target. Bounty Hunters can see everyone's bounty stacks. Bounty stacks trigger additional effects at certain thresholds: at 33 stacks, the usual rule that all incoming damage in PvP must be halved if it's above 350, and then halved again if it's still above 300, no longer applies to Bounty Hunter's damage; at 66 stacks, Bounty Hunter ignores the target's crit chance/power resistance; at 100 stacks, the target's current hit points are set to -100. In War Events and New Reno Wars, killing players with bounty stacks rewards Bounty Hunters with a currency bonus of 10% for each of the target's bounty stacks. Bounty Hunter's bounty power is reduced by 1 if they have the Quick Fingers perk synergy.

Chosen One

Chosen One Min. Level 30 Role Semi‑tank SPECIAL +3 Charisma SPECIAL scaling Charisma: +1 HP Fury -1 Charisma per stack Rage Set 2 random SPECIAL attributes to 1 for 20 seconds Drawbacks Luck: -4 AP Regen; Each active perk synergy reduces damage by 15%; Healing rate is set to 0; Reaching 0 HP means instant death PvE ability Gain 10% more experience from kills Favorite weapon SMGs (+25% damage at 1‑hex range) Base crit roll 0–45 Acquisition Klamath (8:2), Downtown (picture)

Clone is a semi‑tank with the ability to summon an AI‑controlled doppelganger. For base stats, see the stats-by-role table. The clone-summoning ability works as follows: You spawn your clone using the command ~clone. Cloning has a base cooldown of 9 minutes (540 seconds); each point of Speech reduces the cooldown by 1 second, down to a minimum of 40 seconds. Your cloned companion's stats and gear mirror your own, with some exceptions. PvE perks (such as Mini Toughness and Quick Dodger) protect you but do not affect the clone. The clone cannot use grenades or any other stackable weapons. The clone does not consume ammunition. The clone cannot carry additional gear. Both the player and the clone are immune to knockouts, knockbacks, knockdowns, and the Heavy Handed effect. If your clone is alive when you are killed by another player, you are instantly revived, effectively killing the clone to take its place. You deal 50% more damage when your clone is dead. The clone provides vision in a 15-hex radius even when dead. The clone's stats get adjusted based on how the target is marked: Red (aggressive): +50% damage, -20% DR Purple (defensive): -50% damage, +20% DR Blue/unmarked: No changes When directing the clone with alt‑click commands, the neutral "Command Move" is recommended to avoid aggroing non-hostile NPCs.

Combat Master

Combat Master Min. Level 35 Role Specialist SPECIAL scaling Strength: +1% critical power Fury +6% critical power per stack Rage Ignore critical resistances for 10 s Drawbacks You're limited to 1 Trait; Luck: -3% DR PvE ability Lifesteal cap increased to 50% Favorite weapon Hammers (doubled Strike jump range) Base crit roll 0–80 Acquisition San Francisco (9:25) (picture)

Combat Master is a melee-focused specialist class with exceptional mobility. For base stats, see the stats-by-role table. Combat Master has many advantages in close combat: +30 melee damage. +125% melee critical chance. Using the 2-handed weapon critical table when wielding melee weapons, resulting in significantly better criticals. Strike instantly moving you next to the target and allowing you to ignore their melee protection for 10 seconds. This "engagement jump" has a range of 20 hexes unless you're using a hammer, in which case the range is increased to 40 hexes 90% shorter battle timer after being hit. This doesn't affect the battle timer when you are doing the hitting.

Cyborg

Cyborg Min. Level 120 Role Flex SPECIAL scaling Luck: +1% critical power; Charisma: varies; see combat implants Fury +2% EMP DR per stack Rage EMP explosions that deal 25% of your max HP surround you for 10 s Drawbacks Vulnerability to EMP damage; Chance to lose an implant on death (SPECIAL: 0.25%; Combat: 0.05%); Receive 5 more damage from NPCs; Perception: -2% to EMP DR Favorite weapon Clubs (Shock the target for 1 s) Base crit roll 0–25 (no role); 0–5 (Tank); 0–45 (DPS); 0–65 (Shooter) Acquisition Gecko (29:4), Scrapyard (picture)

Cyborg is a flex class focused on taking full advantage of implants. For base stats, see the stats-by-role table. As a Cyborg, your role is determined by the combination of combat implants you have installed. Each one grants points towards one or more roles; see the table to the right for a complete breakdown. You assume the role that has the most points once all of your desired combat implants are in place. If two or more roles are tied for highest, you are assigned the third; for example, if Tank = DPS > Shooter, you become a shooter. If there's a three-way tie, your baseline (no implants) role as a specialist class remains unchanged. Your class designation displayed on mouse hover changes based on your role: if you're a tank, you're Cyborg MKII; if you're a damage dealer (DPS), you're Terminator; if you're a shooter, you're C-54. Otherwise, you're just a Prototype. Being half-man, half-machine fundamentally changes several aspects of gameplay: Your base implant installation limit is set to 12 SPECIAL implants and 12 combat implants. Your Charisma does not interact with this limit in any way. Three copies of the same combat implant can be installed to trigger a powerful tier 3 bonus; see the Implants article for details. Implants can be freely (un)installed at any time using the ~cmd menu. You become immune to bleeding but vulnerable to EMP damage. First Aid no longer works, but you can heal yourself using the Repair skill with a tool; Mr. Fixit is your version of Healer. Drugs, including meds, work normally. To fix broken limbs, you can use ~cmd with a Science-based cooldown (none at 200), or use Science on yourself with a screwdriver equipped (120 s cooldown). Others can use Repair and Science on you without any tools. Important note: Don't install implants via a doctor NPC as Cyborg, or you will get no free installation tokens when you next reroll.

Deathclaw

Deathclaw Min. Level 40 Role Tank SPECIAL +3 Strength SPECIAL scaling Strength: +4 Stealth; +1% crit chance resistance; +1% plasma DR Perception: +1% laser DR; +1 electrical DT Endurance: +1% crit chance; +1% explosive DR Charisma: +1 laser DT Intelligence: +1% crit chance; normal DT +1 Agility: +1% crit chance; +1 explosive DT Luck: +5% movement speed; +1 plasma DT Fury +5 melee damage per stack Rage Receive a random injury; apply Taunt to everyone on the map except your faction for 3 s Drawbacks Can't use guns; Can't use body armor; Intelligence: -3 melee damage PvE ability +10 melee damage against NPCs Favorite weapon Punch Weapons (15-hex PvP Slow aura scaling with Heavy Handed Strength that replaces its normal effect) Base crit roll 0–55 Acquisition Modoc (20:5) (picture)

Deathclaw is a melee tank with complex SPECIAL scaling. For base stats, see the stats-by-role table. Deathclaws receive a wide range of melee-focused bonuses: +1 attack range +10% movement speed Immunity to Slow Bonus hit points equal to 3 x base lethal damage +1 AP Regen per point of melee damage +1% damage protection per 1% of the power of the Slow debuff that applies to the attacker Lifesteal equal to 1% of target's current life (up to the normal cap) +1 AC per point of Sneak +5% critical chance resistance +(10 + movement-only APs)% critical power resistance Your movement speed modifiers provide critical roll resistance of equal magnitude If you drop below your base movement speed, this effect will boost your attackers' critical rolls Deathclaws don't wear body armor. They get their resistances from Natural Armor, which scales with their stats and the tier of the helmet they wear. If the helmet is tier 1, base Natural Armor values get multiplied by 15%; if it's tier 2: 33%; tier 3: 66%; tier 4: 80%; tier 5: 100%; tier 6: 115%. Natural Armor breakdown  Damage DT DR Normal 6 + Intelligence 45 + critical chance Laser 7 + Charisma 10 + Perception Fire 4 + Sequence 50 + healing rate Plasma 5 + Luck 40 + Strength Explosive 6 + Agility 50 + Endurance Electrical 3 + Perception 30 + action points Deathclaws gain access to armor perks based on the tier and specific perks of their weapon. The number of armor perks that a Deathclaw can have is equal to the tier of their weapon. For example, a T3 weapon will give you 3 armor perks. The specific armor perks that get unlocked depend on what perks your weapon has; see the table below for details. Weapon perk to armor perk mapping  Weapon perk Armor perk Ammo Upgrade Iron Skin Destroyer Bonus Charisma Bloody Cured Bonus Critical Power Integrated Gloves Damage per Bullet Explosive Belt Bonus Max Damage Bonus Strength Bonus Min Damage Sneaky Bonus Attack Speed Utility Less AP Cost Bonus Movement Chip Shot Special Force Bonus Fast Trigger Regeneration Frozen Queen Penetration Protection Killing Spree Mirror System Knockback Thwart Block Life Steal Speed Mechanism Long Range Survivalist Bonus Critical Chance Bonus Luck More Critical Damage Fill The Gaps Penetrate Defense Enhancement Poisonous Shock Protection Scoped Bonus Perception Spiked Heavy Smasher! Anty-Termal System Lethal Damage Advanced Plate More Bonus Damage Advanced Defence Lethal Upgrade Nightmare Defence Critical Master Powered Butcher Great Shield Note: Heavy Handed protection effects, such as those granted by Thwart Block, Mutie, or Jinxed, will counter Deathclaw's Slow aura. Note: Deathclaw is able to scale off of bonuses it got as a result of other scaling; for example, normal DR scaling with crit chance will benefit from crit chance received via SPECIAL scaling.

Grenadier

Grenadier Min. Level 180 Role Damage dealer SPECIAL +3 Strength SPECIAL scaling Strength: +1% Throwing DR penetration Drawbacks Charisma: -1 weapon range; Cannot gain critical chance resistance PvE ability Hitting NPCs triggers the Hit and Run effect even if you don't have the perk Favorite weapon Explosive Grenades (knockback distance is doubled) Base crit roll ??–?? Acquisition Not available yet

Grenadier is an upcoming damage dealer class that specializes in Throwing. For base stats, see the stats-by-role table. Grenadier has many unique advantages: AoE damage does not harm friendly targets. Each hit reduces attack delay by 50 ms for 10 seconds, stacking up to 400 ms. Throwing attacks and their AoE effects have a chance to spawn a trap. The type of the trap depends on the damage type of the attack that triggered its placement: Normal/fire damage can spawn a Bear Trap that deals low damage and cripples legs. Laser damage can spawn a Spear Trap that deals high damage and then places the Laser Spear it fired in the Grenadier's inventory. Plasma damage can spawn a Gamma Mine that deals medium damage and applies Slow to the target. Electrical damage can spawn a Stun Trap that deals low damage and applies Paralysis to the target. Explosive damage can spawn a Land Mine that deals high damage.

Hubologist

Hubologist Min. Level 105 Role Damage dealer SPECIAL scaling Intelligence: +1/3 to gear level perk limit Drawbacks Lose all of your level perks; Endurance: +2 incoming damage; On death, lose one random gear perk rank PvE ability Any gear you equip has its legendary perks upgraded by one rank until you take it off Favorite weapon Electro Weapons (double damage) Base crit roll 10–20 Acquisition San Francisco (9:25), Tanker (picture)

Your weapon perks and armor perks grant you level perks depending on their rank. The number of level perks that Hubologist can get from equipment is limited to 5 + INT/3. If the number of perks that you would normally get from your equipment exceeds the maximum allowed by your Intelligence, only some of the perks will be enabled. The table below shows the order in which available level perks get enabled.

Infantry is a tank class able to gain complete immunity to one chosen damage type. For base stats, see the stats-by-role table. Enlisting as an infantryman comes with several benefits: +5% to all DR caps +7% to all DRs +30% character size Your Strikes ignore the target's damage protection. Using the ~infantry command allows you to select one damage type that you will become immune to for one minute. Being "immune" to a damage type means that all incoming damage of that type will be reduced to 0. You cannot choose the same damage type twice in a row. Every time your immunity absorbs damage from an attack, its remaining duration goes down by 15 seconds. Damage immunity does not protect you from status effects. Note: In practical terms, Infantry's favorite weapon bonus adds (4% + 4% x Distance) to Shotguns' regular damage multiplier.

Killer

Killer Min. Level 60 Role Specialist SPECIAL +3 Agility SPECIAL scaling Agility: +1% chance to deal double damage Fury -2% DR per stack (PvP only) Rage Set attack delay to 700 ms for 10 s (triggers at 10 Fury stacks) Drawbacks Respawning takes 500% longer; Intelligence: -2 to all DTs PvE ability Regain ~1/3 of your APs when you kill an NPC Favorite weapon Miniguns (+15% lifesteal) Base crit roll 0–95 Acquisition Hinkley (36:28) (picture)

Leader is a tank class that provides powerful party‑wide buffs. For base stats, see the stats-by-role table. Leadership gives you several advantages: +50 party points. +35% critical chance resistance. +4% movement speed bonus for each faction member in the same location. Ability to plant flags that buff your team: Flags apply a buff based on the Leader's Charisma to all teammates within their range. To select the desired buff, your teammates can use the ~leader command or left-click one of your flags. Setting up a flag requires Wood and has a 60-second cooldown. Leader flag bonuses stack with those from non-Leader flags (WE, TC), but flag bonuses from multiple Leaders do not stack with one another. The command to opt out of receiving buffs from Leader flags is ~leaderoff. Full list of Leader-specific flag buff effects  Note: One character can only select a single set of bonuses; for example, if you select "Vitality" and then also select "Unity," the second choice will override the first. The exact magnitude of the bonuses depends on the Charisma of the flag's creator. For example, if you selected the "Vitality" buff, and the Leader's Charisma = 20, staying within their flag's range will give you +20 hit points (20 / 1 = 20), +20 healing rate (20 / 1 = 20), +5 Endurance and 5 seconds faster healing rate tickrate (20 / 4 = 5), and immunity to bleeding.

Paramedic

Paramedic Min. Level 65 Role Tank SPECIAL +3 Intelligence SPECIAL scaling Intelligence: Revive cooldown reduction Fury -0.5% movement speed per stack Rage Cannot run for 10 s Drawbacks -50% damage; FA and Doctor give no XP; Perception: -3 HP restored per heal PvE ability Doubled First Aid effect on NPCs Favorite weapon Fast Pistols (+25% more healing to target) Base crit roll 0–30 Acquisition Salt Lake (40:3) (picture)

Paramedic is a tank class focused on healing, with the ability to revive dead players. For base stats, see the stats-by-role table. Being trained as a Paramedic has the following results: +100 AC, -10 to attackers' AC MOD, and 10% character size reduction. +50% First Aid and Doctor; both skills have their cooldowns set to 3 seconds. Ability to revive dead players: Base cooldown is 600 seconds; each point of Intelligence ≤ 25 reduces it by 5 seconds; points beyond 25 only reduce the cooldown by 1 s. The Medic level perk reduces the cooldown to 300 seconds, and increases the reduction from Intelligence ≤ 25 to 10 seconds. The cooldown is applied to the target; players who are on cooldown and cannot be revived have a "+" in front of their overhead hit point display. Paramedic becomes immune to damage for 1 second after reviving someone; revived characters are immune for 8 seconds. Access to a special buff that grants +0.5% damage protection to your patients per stack; buff stacks received scale with your weapon's total perk ranks: 0–17: +1–3 stacks from FA/Doc/weapon healing, +10 after being revived; 18–33: +2–7 stacks from FA/Doc/weapon healing, +15 after being revived; 34–49: +3–10 stacks from FA/Doc/weapon healing, +20 after being revived; 50+: +4–15 stacks from FA/Doc/weapon healing, +25 after being revived. Your weapon perks' ranks have the following values for the purpose of this calculation: rank F = 1, E = 2, D = 3, C = 4, B = 5, A = 6, S = 7, S+ = 8. Characters with over 30 stacks of Paramedic's buff receive +100% healing from every source. A character cannot have more than 50 stacks. The stacks gradually expire while you're out of combat at the approximate rate of 1 stack every 5 seconds.

Priest

Priest is a tank class focused on health recovery. For base stats, see the stats-by-role table. Priesthood confers several privileges: Healing from First Aid, Drugs, and healing ammo is doubled. For every 25 points of healing rate, you regain 1 hit point every 2.1 seconds. This replaces the regular healing rate effect. Endurance can reduce Priest's default 2.1-second cooldown all the way down to 0.1 seconds. Bleeding completely disables Priest's healing rate. Anyone attacking Priests gets the Heresy debuff.

Random Boy

Level 100 Role Semi‑tank SPECIAL scaling Current Luck (recalculated every roll): +3.5% chance to get a lucky ~rb roll +3% damage +2% lifesteal +2% hit points +5 AP Regen +3% movement speed Fury Lose 1 DT per stack Rage Reset the current roll and its associated cooldown Drawbacks Inconsistent performance; Strength: +1 s battle timer duration PvE ability 20% chance for NPCs to de‑aggro when hit Favorite weapon Assault Rifles: -3 to +3 damage per bullet (randomized for each attack) Base crit roll 0–100 Acquisition Reno (20:18), 2nd Street (picture)

Random Boy is a semi‑tank gambling addict whose power level fluctuates wildly with every roll of the dice. For base stats, see the stats-by-role table. Letting RNGesus take the wheel has many surprising results: Strike applies a random effect to the target: 100% Slow for 5 s, 50 Weakness, 25 Radiation, 50 Poison, 10 Paramedic buff stacks, 3‑second Paralysis, active Sneak, or +50 current hit points. Using the ~randomboy command triggers a random roll of 9 stats; see the table below for details. The roll has a base cooldown of 5 minutes and 30 seconds; each point of Barter skill reduces this cooldown by 1 second. Stats from multiple rolls can stack. Chance of getting a lucky roll is capped at 95%. Full list of possible stat rolls (in random order)  Lucky Roll Unlucky Roll +25 hit points -20 hit points +2 action points and +2 TB movement-only APs -1 action point and +1 TB movement-only AP +10 lethal damage -3 lethal damage -10% attack delay +3% attack delay +6% DR penetration -1% DR penetration +10% DT penetration -3% DT penetration +5 s to turn duration and +3 turn‑based shots -1 turn duration and -1 turn‑based shots +15% critical power resistance penetration -5% critical power resistance penetration +50% radiation resistance, +50% poison resistance, and +50 carry weight capacity -25% radiation resistance, -25% poison resistance, and -25 carry weight capacity +75 Sequence -25 Sequence +20 melee damage -5 melee damage +3 Strength, Perception, Endurance, Charisma, Intelligence, and Agility -1 Strength, Perception, Endurance, Charisma, Intelligence, and Agility +10% critical chance -3% critical chance +40% critical power -20% critical power +80 critical roll -30 critical roll +5 Sight range -5 Sight range +60 healing rate and +225 AC -20 healing rate and -75 AC +4% Lethality -3% Lethality +5% Noiselessness -4% Noiselessness +10% lethal damage protection -8% lethal damage protection -5 AP to reload cost +3 AP to reload cost +60% damage vs. NPCs -40% damage vs. NPCs +15% healing received -10% healing received

Raider is a specialist class focused on action points. For base stats, see the stats-by-role table. Being a Raider means being ready for action; that's why you get: Twice the normal amount of action points from every source Ability to regenerate action points while running Bonus lethal damage equal to your total action points Strike draining 4–10 action points from its target Immunity to the "lost turn" effect (from critical hits and Alien's Stun Hex weapon perk only)

Robot

• Robot is a flex class able to swap between four different roles using the ~cmd menu.
• You can become a Robot in Las Vegas (40:32) at level 170.
  

  Error: Organic lifeform detected.
  Initiate mechanization? [Y/N]
• Robot's base critical roll depends on its current transformation; see below for details. For the remaining base stats, see the stats-by-role table.

Robot transformations

Robots can use the ~cmd command to access a menu that lets them transform every 10 seconds. Transforming grants a unique set of modifiers, and triggers an immediate effect. Transformation Sentry Bot Mr. Handy Robobrain Eyebot Immediate effect Gain immunity for 2 seconds Fully recover your AP and HP Apply Heresy to enemies within 30 hexes and vanish for 3 seconds Gain +50% MS and the Hit and Run effect Role Tank Specialist Shooter DPS SPECIAL bonus +3 Endurance +3 Agility +3 Luck +3 Strength Base critical roll 5–10 5–40 5–70 5–60 Available weapons Big Guns Energy Weapons Small Guns Close Combat weapons Bonuses 0 AP reload cost Fury: +2 DT Rage: Paralyzes all enemies within 10 hexes +50 AP Regen Strike fully restores APs and grants +300 AP Regen for 10 s +25% critical power; ignore HP-based crit roll penalty Critical hits reduce attack delay by 5% and attack AP cost by 1 for 3 s (stacks up to 10 times) +20% movement speed Damage Knives apply Bleed, Confusion, Poison, and a 10-second 30% Slow on hit Penalties +300 ms attack delay -10% critical chance Cannot gain extra damage per bullet -20 STR for Heavy Handed calculation

Becoming a Robot transforms your character in several ways:

• Your EMP resistance and level perks are lost.
• You choose 8 new level perks: five base perks that work normally, and 3 temporary perks that ignore their SPECIAL requirements and can be changed freely whenever you transform.
• You have an option of replacing one temporary perk with an S+ weapon perk.
• You cannot use your own weapons. Instead, you equip body armor and get a weapon that matches its tier. If there's ever a tier mismatch between the two, your weapon systems are disabled.
• Robot's weapon systems gain weapon experience a bit differently from normal weapons:
  • The initial amount of Robot's current transformation's weapon XP is governed by a Robot-exclusive resource called "fuel."
  • Fuel is obtained by melting weapons via the ~cmd menu, which converts their experience into an equal amount of fuel.
  • Transforming consumes 2.5% x Perception of your total fuel.
  • On transformation, your new weapon starts with experience equal to your current fuel.
  • Adding more fuel does not affect your current weapon; it only increases the starting experience of your next weapon.
  • Your weapon can gain additional weapon experience normally (by killing NPCs or via Upgrade Parts), but this extra experience will be lost during your next transformation.
  • Dying causes you to lose 40% - INT% of your current fuel; the amount can't be reduced below 1%.
  • In War Events, there is no fuel penalty for dying and additional fuel can be earned by killing NPCs or purchased directly from the spawn point vendor.
