The best F2 character looks something like this:
ST 5
PE 8
EN 2
CH 6
IN 8
AG 10
LK 8
Gifted
Fast shot
Small guns
Speech
Lockpick
The best gun is Gauss Pistol. With 12 AP (2xAction boy) you do six shots, all critical of course with Sniper and LK 10, knocking down or insta-killing 6 enemies per turn. Fighting lots of enemies such as in the enclave or military base is easy, you don't get shot at much as you keep knocking them all down.
I made a Fast shot character specifically to use big guns and ended up using the Gauss Pistol with my non-tagged small guns skill because 6 single shots with that were just much more effective than 3 bursts with vindicator or anything.
You can take a perk of Lifegiver if the low EN bothers you, 2 points of EN gives you 1 hp/lvl, lifegiver gives you 4 hp/lvl so you get that back quite fast.

It is not possible to reach level 24 doing all the quests in Fallout 1 or 2, it isn't, you can say that however much you want, but nearly the whole community of NMA would agree with me, and it's been discuss limitless times in threads where people have mentioned grinding to get perks such as Slayer in Fallout 2, which in that game is a level 24 perk, so no, I have no idea what you're talking about.

This is so wrong... Fallout 2 is much bigger than Fallout and you'll get a much higher level. You mention Per's guide, well if you make a gifted charismatic team player like suggested and do every quest in the game you're sure to end up somewhere around lvl 27 at least.
My go-everywhere-do-everything playthrough of killap's latest RP ended up with lvl 32 I believe, with zero grinding random encounters for stuff. Sure I fought random encounters when they came but didn't walk around the wilderness to get guns to sell or anything. Sure the RP adds the EPA and a couple of quests here and there but I doubt that they account for 10 lvls worth of xp.
Maybe in the first game you need to grind a bit to get slayer or sniper, or you get them so late in the game that you don't benefit from them for the majority of time playing the game.

I disagree. It has pretty much everything.
