1. ... And Learn To Sneak

To that end, you'll want to train yourself up to at least a basic level of sneaking. Even if you're a heavy-hitting bruiser type who charges headlong into battles, you should give yourself the tools to be able to avoid them if you have to.

The good news is that you only need three points in your Agility to be able to access every rank of the Sneak perk. As well as letting you avoid combat, Ranks 2 and 3 of the perk stop you from triggering traps and mines respectively. Seeing as both of those things are capable of insta-killing you (which is obviously very, very bad in survival mode), having at least three ranks of sneak could save you from a world of hair-tearing frustration.

Are you ready to jump into Fallout 4 survival mode yet, or does it sound a bit too much like ACTUALLY struggling to survive in a post-apocalyptic world? Let us know in the comments!
