level 78, on Very Hard mode. It would be Survival, but Survival fucking sucks. (and by fucking sucks, I mean you can only save by sleeping, which means I can’t play it before I have to leave for work unless I am staying in a settlement the entire time which is..............not happening. and once you turn it off, you can’t turn it back on. So t’s not like I can play in Survival mode, turn it off if I have to save to leave the house quickly, and then turn it back on later. Nope. Because that would be nice)
The only time I turn the difficulty down is if I’m in a fight that has zero chance of me dying, but is going on forever because the enemy has stupidly high health. Like for instance a bunch of bloodrage mirelurks that refuse to come out of the fucking water. The radiation heals me and stimpacks restore all of my health in like 2 seconds. I am not going to be killed by these things. This is not a difficult fight it is a boring one. So down goes the difficulty and bye bye mirelurks because there is no way in hell I’m wasting half an hour chipping away at their health.
