Level perks are permanent character enhancements that can be selected at specific experience point thresholds (called "levels") to expand or boost your character's capabilities.
Each level perk has two requirements: a minimum value of its corresponding SPECIAL attribute, and a minimum character level. Note that temporary boosts (from drugs, armor perks, blessings, etc.) do not count towards the required minimum. Most characters are able to gain one level perk every 3 levels, for a total of 9 level perks at level 27, but there are exceptions: for example, the Chosen One has a significantly higher limit.
Related level perks synergize with one another, allowing you to unlock additional bonuses; see perk synergies for details.
All level perks available as of Patch 6.4 are listed in the table below.
