NOTE: Special stat sources can be split into to 3 categories:

  • Base - value on register/reroll
  • Real - value with all permanent bonuses(level perks, WE perks, implants etc)
  • Temporary - value of bonuses from non-permanent sources(drugs, armor perks etc)

So its worth to keep in mind next time you reroll that you can use Real category to get benefits coming from stats you wouldn't get otherwise.
For example you can install WE perks temporarily during rerolling to gain Level Perks, PvE Perks and more and uninstall them afterwords.

Temporary Special wont work in these special calculations:

  • Perk Select
  • Support Perk Select
  • Armor decreasing tempo(luck)
  • Implant Limit
  • Skill Point Gain
  • PvE Perks Gain
  • Party Points


With Gifted cap for most stats raise to 40, but there is 1 in each special capped to 20, like HP for Endurance.

Capped at 20:

  • Strength: +2 melee damage (3 with Bruiser)
  • Perception: +3 sight range
  • Endurance: +1 HP per level up to level 18
  • Charisma: +0.25 SPECIAL implant limit (not working on Cyborgs)
  • Intelligence: +0.5 DR penetration resistance
  • Agility: +0.33 to MAX AP
  • Luck: +1 critical power
