Fallout 4 Tips to Level Up Faster

Increase Your Carry Weight

Increase Your Carry Weight

You can't carry an unlimited amount of items. Once your inventory is full, you'll be over encumbered. When that happens, you can't run. And if you don't have the right perk, you won't be able to fast travel. If this happens, you'll need to ditch items that you can use for crafting.

Increasing your carry weight will allow you to carry more which means you'll be able to craft more and carry more items to help your character stay alive. There are a few ways to do this.

You can strap on Power Armor. Power Armor allows you to carry more items. You can use Buffout and Bufftats to increase your Strength attribute. Boosting your strength will temporarily increase your carry weight.

You can also invest in the Lone Wanderer perk (it will give you increased capacity) and the Strength attrbitute. Each point will increase your carry weight by 10. Once you get Strength high enough, you can pick up the Strong Back perk. The final level will allow you to fast travel while overencumbered saving you time and materials.

You can also use your companion to hold stuff for you so if you do wander around with a companion, make sure you use them. You can milk XP from most items.

    Really didn’t expect tips like “holster your weapon when running” and “use cover” in a “tips to level faster” article. Weird stuff.

      Agreed this list is super random.. Leveling up is a necessity in this game as there’s so much you can’t do unless you have the right perk, which you can only get from leveling up, so why do they act like it’s not even a big deal? Weird.

    I think I met her. Wasn’t she imprisoned for muling money for a criminal organization that gathers witless volunteers by scamming them with “work-from-home” ads?

    Most of these aren’t even tips for leveling up, just tips for playing the game. As for the very last tip, here’s a better one. Invest in the Robotics Expert perk before doing Automatron. It gives you the ability to hack robots and make them shutdown or self destruct, and later down the line you can even make them attack for you.

    I’m level 125 now and i’m missing my main trick in this list; Vegetable Starch!

    Get your settlements to produce: water / tato / corn / mutfruit, as much as you can.
    Link all your settlements and every couple of days go to your cooking station and make vegetable starch.
    Excellent XP, even at level 125 i get 1/4 – 1/3 level every other day.

    Cooking/crafting as a whole is good for XP, always buy fertilizer and make as much fireworks as you can. I also make lots and lots of caltrops, they dont give much XP (and are a lot of buttonclicks..), but since they only cost 5 steel each, and steel can be bought in shipments of 250, it’s still good XP in the end, although its a bit much work.

    But vegetable starch takes the cake, once your settlements are producing the resources needed you can just sit back and let the free XP roll in ;) i havent found a better way to level..
