Hey all,

As I play more of New Vegas, I seem that I am running out of space to carry items I collect. I attempt to manage it as best as I can, only carry weapons and armour I use, and no junk. Yet, I'm still nearing overlimit.

In Fallout 4, when you level up, you choose to increase a SPECIAL point or pick a perk in a SPECIAL level.
In New Vegas, as far as I know, when you level up you choose points for skills and one trait/perk thing. There is nothing to increase my Strength special point or anything like that.

How would I do such a thing?

Cheers

There's a perk called Intense Training that you can take to increase any of your SPECIAL stats by one point, and you can take the perk multiple times too. Additionally, in New Vegas area, there's a medical clinic that sells implants, that you can use to upgrade your SPECIAL as well.

Here's a link to the Intense Training Perk and it's details.

Cheers mate! +1 rep to you

@ Hoetan

Thank you very much!

Also, some clothing and armor in Fallout New Vegas can boost SPECIAL stats and Skills, so next time you find any of that out in your adventures in the wasteland, be sure to check if they do. Various wasteland outfits can boost your endurance and agility by 1. Here's a link to those outfits.

And if you mod the game with things like Project Nevada, Tactical Vests, etc. you can get items the just outright increase your carry weight (such as backpacks). Otherwise, Intense Training is probably the best thing for ya, though you'll still hit the cap of 10?
