Chems can also temporarily boost the player character's skills however, they often have adverse effects such as addiction and withdrawal. For example, equipping lock picks would improve lockpicking skills.

Some skills can also be improved while having certain items equipped. How high skills can be developed is affected by the character's attributes-a character with a low Intelligence will not be able to boost their Science rating as high as a character with high Intelligence, for example.

Some non-player characters can also improve Skills via training. However, after a skill reaches a certain Level, books no longer have any impact on that skill.

Four passive skills: Speech, Barter, Gambling, Outdoorsman.īooks found throughout the game world can also improve some of those skills permanently, although books are scarce early in the game.

Eight active skills: First Aid, Doctor, Sneak, Lockpick, Steal, Traps, Science, Repair.

Six combat skills: Small Guns, Big Guns, Energy Weapons, Unarmed, Melee Weapons, Throwing.
