“Each level of Educated will add +2 skill points when you gain a new experience level. This Perk works best when purchased early in your adventure.”— in-game description, Fallout
“With the Educated perk, you gain three more skill points every time you advance in level. This perk is best taken early on, to maximize its effectiveness.”— In-game description
With this perk, you will add +3 skill points each time you gain a new experience level.
Notes[]
Like previous games, this perk works best when obtained early in the game.
With high Intelligence and the Comprehension perk, this perk becomes less useful, as you will easily max out your skills. By level 20, you can max out your skill stats with reading around 250 of the total 324 skill books, leaving you with 74 extra skill books left over.
Fallout: New Vegas[]
With this perk, you will add +2 skill points each time you gain a new experience level.
Notes[]
Like in previous games, this perk works best when obtained early in the game.
The perk is more valuable in Fallout: New Vegas, as you get only half the bonus skill points for your INT stat when levelling up. This means that the perk is equivalent, in terms of skill point gain, to 4 points of INT.
With all 4 add-ons installed, the player's max level will be raised to 50. This perk will provide an extra 92 skill points from level 4 to 50.
Bugs[]
Has platform::Xbox 360 The 0.5 modifier that comes with an odd numbered Intelligence can sometimes cause Educated to bug out if the perk is taken. A character with 7 Intelligence for example will possess 14 and 13.5 skill points per even and odd numbered levels prior to the perk, however, after taking this perk at level 4, the character instead gains 16 points per level instead of 16 and 15.5. Conversely, characters with 9 Intelligence only gain 16 points per level after the perk is taken at level 4 instead of 17 and 16.5 at even and odd levels respectively. This bug can occur after rebuilding a character upon leaving Goodsprings as well, if both iterations had 10 intelligence. [已验证]
