Perks are permanent character upgrades purchased with Skill Points earned through leveling. They are different from Skills, which improve by performing related actions.

Perks and effects

Check the cost and confirmation shown in-game before buying the next level.

Perk	Effect per level
Immunity	Increase Max Rad Immunity by 5
Morale	Increase Max Morale by 100
Life	Increase Max Life by 100
Luck	Increase chance of finding better items
Strength	Increase strength by 1%
Defense	Increase defense by 1%
Speed	Increase speed by 1%
Agility	Increase agility by 1%

Spending Skill Points

Later perk levels can cost more than early levels, so spreading Skill Points and specializing have different trade-offs. Before confirming a purchase, consider whether your current bottleneck is resource capacity, survivability, combat effectiveness, or loot quality.

Perk changes may be restricted or costly. Treat the in-game confirmation as authoritative for the current cost and effect.
