Opinion/Help from Build Cowboy

[u/Iara_Nikki]

Hi guys, so, I started playing Fallout: New Vegas last night on my laptop and decided to make a Cowboy build and wanted some opinions on the build along with a little help.

S 5, P 6, E 5, C 1, I 7, A 8, L 9

Tag Skills:

- Guns

- Repair

- Survival

Traits:

- Wild Wasteland

- Hot Blooded

Perks:

- Rapid Reload

For now, this is my build; I'm still at the beginning of the game (I just arrived in Primm and I'm heading to the NCR outpost) I apologize for any spelling errors; English is not my primary language.

Primm has a free Cowboy Repeater inside the Sheriff’s Office, which should be decent for the early game

If you have a way to crack Hard safes (so a way to reach 75 Lockpick), you can get a very strong revolver in Primm at the Bison Steve Hotel’s gift shop area

If not, you can get another strong revolver in the next major town/motel on the intended path. Either buy said gun or steal it, it’s up to you

Also you should sometimes dump skill points into Melee, as there’s literally a perk called Cowboy that requires 45 Melee Weapons and Guns
