Changes: Character Traits

Revision as of 17:49, 15 April 2018

Traits determine a character's efficiency while at the shelter. Characters can change traits depending on certain gameplay events. When creating a character, players have the option to choose one positive trait. Traits do change character stats. After creation, each character is randomly assigned a negative trait as well.

A good tactic is to keep restarting your save, until you get the desired/preferred negative traits on your characters.

Traits

Positive	Negative	Effects	How to Change
Courageous	Cowardice	First two attacks in an "attack to kill" are guaranteed to hit/miss	Win fights
Proactive	Lazy	Move faster/slower in the shelter and whilst exploring	Go on expeditions
Optimistic	Pessimistic	Gains stress slower/faster	Return from expeditions with loot (as the party leader)
Hands-on	Hands-off	Craft and fix faster/slower	Craft and fix things at the shelter
Resourceful	Wasteful	Higher/lower chance of recovering items when de-constructing objects	De-construct 20 items at the shelter? (requires verification)
Hygienic	Unhygienic	Dirtiness increases at a slower/faster rate	Get food poisoning (may require several attempts)
Deep Sleeper	Light Sleeper	Tiredness stat decreases faster/slower when sleeping	Don't sleep for around 3+ days (maintain sleep deprivation)
Small Eater	Big Eater	Food rations relieve more/less hunger	Don't eat (may require First Aid Kits for health)

Tips

Courageous generally goes well with the "Troubled" & "Violent" stat sets.
Proactive generally goes well with the "Street Smart" stat set.
Hands-on generally goes well with the "Athletic" stat set.
Optimistic is good to have late game but early on serves little to no purpose.
Resourceful is good to have late game but early on serves little to no purpose.
