Charisma

Charisma is one of the seven primary statistics in the SPECIAL character system.

Fallout, Fallout 2 and Fallout Tactics
In Fallout 2, Charisma also determines the number of base companion slots the player character is given. This number is equal to their Charisma score divided by two, rounded down. As an example, with a Charisma at five, two can be recruited. Please note that one companion can still be recruited (in a few cases) even with the lowest Charisma score.

Predesigned Primary Charisma-based Characters (PPCC) of Fallout are Albert, and in Fallout 2's case, Chitsa.

In Fallout Tactics, Charisma is, at best, a secondary trait. Due to the nature of the game (i.e. almost exclusively combat-based) it is feasible to complete the game easily with 1 or 2 Charisma with no penalty. The only role is that when the Warrior starts with Charisma of 10, their rank is Senior Initiate, rather than Initiate. It is involved with the Barter skill and promotions, and is required for the Leader and Divine Favor perks. A low Charisma, on the other hand, gives access to the Loner perk.

Ways to increase Charisma in Fallout

 * Find the Singer random encounter. Speaking with Patrick the Celt and passing a Speech check will increase Charisma by one.
 * Pop some Mentats for a temporary +1 Charisma.

Ways to increase Charisma in Fallout 2

 * Install the blue memory module into ACE, then request the following surgery. Charisma will be increased by one.
 * Take the Gain Charisma perk for another point.
 * Having the mirrored shades, obtained from Mason (Salvatore's Bar, must be looted) or one of the graves in Golgotha, active in one of the item slots increases Charisma by one point.
 * Pop some Mentats for a temporary +1 Charisma.

Fallout 3
Modifies: Speech and Barter skills, NPC Disposition

Charisma increases the disposition of all NPCs, which makes Speech checks easier. Disposition is also affected somewhat by Karma (most NPCs like good characters more), quests (doing a quest in a way an NPC likes can dramatically boost disposition), and dialog options (being a jerk in conversations can lower disposition a little). Charisma also affects the Barter and Speech skills. Characters who use Speech will want at least a decent Charisma, but adding points to the skill is almost always better than adding points to the score. Characters who do not use the Speech skill have little use for this SPECIAL score.

There are also general Charisma checks in dialogue with some characters, in addition to Speech checks. Avoid wearing things like Enclave Power Helmets, as they deduct 1 point of Charisma while equipped.

Ways to increase Charisma

 * Bobblehead - Charisma (+1)

Fallout: New Vegas
Charisma in New Vegas modifies Barter, Speech and Companion Nerve. Companion Nerve gives each companion in the party +5% to their damage and armor, up to a maximum of +50% at 10 Charisma.

Regardless of Barter or Speech level, some interactions will not be available with a too low Charisma (Ex. Corporal Betsy). These ultimately do not have any significant effect on game play, nor do they provide any special bonuses.

 * Completing the quest The Apocalypse or The End will allow raising any one primary statistic by 1.
 * Temporary

 * "Mood Light" (+2 for 12 hours or until the player uses the "Smart Lights")

Fallout 4
Charisma influences several game mechanics. It directly controls your ability to charm and convince others, replacing the Speech skill in governing your chance of successfully persuading in dialogues. It also replaces the Barter skills from previous games by governing the prices you get from trading with merchants.

Charisma also affects the maximum amount of settlers allowed at a settlement:
 * $$Max Population = 10 + Charisma$$

In Fallout 4, Charisma also governs access to the following perks:
 * Cap Collector; Get better prices from merchants and invest in their stores
 * Lady Killer / Black Widow; Be more effective against the opposite sex in combat, persuasion and use of the Intimidation perk.
 * Lone Wanderer; Grants various bonuses to the Sole Survivor when traveling alone or with Dogmeat.
 * Attack Dog; Grant various bonuses to Dogmeat.
 * Animal Friend; Pacify, Incite or Command Wasteland animals below your level.
 * Local Leader; Build workshops and traders at your settlements and establish supply lines to link them.
 * Party Boy/Party Girl; Increase the effects of alcohol and remove any chance of addiction.
 * Inspirational; Grant various bonuses to your companions.
 * Wasteland Whisperer; Pacify, Incite or Command Wasteland creatures below your level.
 * Intimidation; Pacify, Incite or Command human enemies below your level.

Effects on Barter
Charisma affects item buy/sell values; the value of an item for buying or selling is its innate value multiplied by either the buying price modifier or the selling price modifier:
 * $$Buying Price Modifier = 3.50 - Charisma\times 0.15$$
 * $$Selling Price Modifier = 1 / Buying Price Modifier$$

Multiply the modifier from Charisma and all applicable modifiers above to get the (near) final modifier.

If you get a final buying modifier that is less than 1.2, the game will use 1.2. If you get a final selling modifier that is greater than 0.8, the game will use 0.8.

Note: The minimum purchase price is 120% of the item's value, and the maximum selling price is 80% of the item's value. It appears that this applies even after you get a discount from a vendor.

To get the best prices:
 * Without any of the other factors above, you need 16 CHA for buying, 15 CHA for selling.
 * With Cap Collector 1 Perk, you need 15 CHA for both buying and selling.
 * With Cap Collector 2 Perk, you need 14 CHA for buying and 13 CHA for selling.
 * With Cap Collector 2 Perk and the Barter Bobblehead, you need 12 CHA for selling.
 * With Cap Collector 2 Perk, the Barter Bobblehead, and all 8 Jerky Vendor issues, you need 10 CHA for buying.

Other price factors are below.

Friend Discount is when you get better prices from a vendor for completing a quest. For example, returning the locket to Connie Abernathy's husband unlocks a Friend Discount with Connie. Other vendors may have the same or other discounts.

Maximizing Charisma
Base charisma of up to 12 can be achieved (as with any SPECIAL):
 * Increase base Charisma to 10.
 * Take Daddy-O or suffer addiction withdrawal to temporarily decrease Charisma below 10.
 * Use the You're SPECIAL! book while Charisma is still below 10. When effect wears off, you will have 11 Charisma.
 * Pick up the Charisma bobblehead to reach 12 Charisma.

Several items grant temporary bonuses while consumed or equipped.
 * Equip Militia hat or any other hat raising Charisma (+1)
 * Equip Black-rim glasses or Fashionable glasses (+1)
 * Equip either Summer shorts (+2, fills chest armor slot), or Green shirt and combat boots (+1) and any "Sharp" chest armor (+1).
 * Equip "Sharp" leg and arm armor pieces (up to +4).
 * Drink Beer or any other alcohol except Bourbon, Rum, Vodka, Whiskey or Wine (+2 with Party Boy/Girl tier 2 perk, +1 without it.)
 * Use Grape Mentats (+5)
 * Use Day Tripper (+3)
 * Use X-cell (+2)

This results in maximum possible ending Charisma of 32, allowing for up to 42 settlers to populate a settlement, and potentially elevated success chance for speech checks.

Far Harbor
Far Harbor provides better substitutions:


 * Equipping The Dapper Gent (+2) in the hat slot instead of a hat providing only +1
 * Equip 5 pieces of "Unyielding" armor (*+3) (+15 total)
 * Equip Green shirt and combat boots (+1) as under-apparel
 * NOTE: Unyielding takes effect while below 25% health, giving +3 to all SPECIAL stats

This results in maximum possible ending Charisma of 43, allowing for up to 53 settlers to populate a settlement, and potentially elevated success chance for speech checks.

Vault-Tec Workshop
Vault-Tec Workshop provides the barber chair, which, when used, provides a semi-permanent boost of one Charisma, only being lost when choosing to use one of the other statistic boosting workshop items, such as the pommel horses, weight benches, or slot machines.

Combined with the Far Harbor add-on, the Vault-Tec Workshop provides a maximum Charisma of 44, allowing for 54 settlers to normally inhabit a settlement.

Nuka-World
Nuka-World provides the following:


 * The Green shirt and combat boots (+1), replaced by Fancy plaid suit & tie (+2)
 * The Smooth Operator chem (+3)

This, combined with all other previous add-ons and base game items, provides a combined Charisma of 48, allowing for a total of 58 settlers per settlement.
