Conspicious, hearty appetite and sleepyhead are terrible
conspicuous is completely fine
stealth matters so little
Retnaru has done a video on it so I'm not gonna explain it since itd take too long
i carry lots of low calorie foods, and i use alarms
Conspicuous is almost free points, there are def YouTube videos showing how little it negatively impacts your gameplay. Good pick.
Hearty appetite is great if you have access to veggies and canned foods, or fat food but are very active. IMO easy to manage.
Lucky, I hear, isn’t worth it though.
Going hard in fitness and strength I feel are good calls as well.
imo, speed demon is kinda bad. the double reverse engine sound makes cars rly loud - its not deadly, i just dont like it (my playstyle)
hearty appetite is maneagable and imo is better late game than early game, once you have a steady supply of crops going. however dont take it if you expect to live off of trapping and fishing, theyre high calorie food sources and youll get obeso
sleepyhead bad never take sleepy traits, if youre setting alarms then youre not getting all the sleep you need to not get drowsy towards the end of the day. again imo, towards the late game its kind of fine especially when the majority of your days are tending to the base. however for combat and multi-day loot runs (ie. louisville) it can be sketchy af
lucky kinda meh, "10%" is not additive its multiplicative, ie. if a rare item has a 2% spawn chance in a given container, then it's bumped up to 2.2% (10% of 2 is 0.2) so its not that good lol
either way its your playstyle that matters most here, all we can do is offer our opinions
sorry for lecture lol
i got rid of sleepy head, i added prone to illness, and lucky has been working for me.
lucky is literally just placebo
the amount that it matters is so little
Yeah changing a 1% rare spawn to 1.1% is pretty useless
and you lose the opportunity cost of unlucky, which is +4 points that can go towards other traits
it does affect your repair chance though (-5%) and foraging distance (oh no?), but personally never bothered me even on rarest loot settings
