Creating a video game version of Lucy from the Fallout series is not simple, because you first have to create a character that looks like her. The next step is to build Lucy MacLean in Fallout 4 with SPECIAL stats, perks and weapons.
Best build of Lucy MacLean in Fallout 4
While everyone is talking about Lucy MacLean's official SPECIAL stats in Fallout Shelter, they are from a different game where you start with 40 points for a stat. In Fallout 4, you only have 21 points to spend on starting stats (28 total, since you can't go below 1 for a stat). As we start a new game, we will spend available points on stats and go from there.

Lucy from the Fallout series is a highly capable, technology-focused character with excellent Charisma and Intelligence. She was the only one able to survive outside of Vault 33, which says a lot about her character. While she probably felt like a fish out of water in the desert, she survived and even found friends to help her. While I chose to start with a lower Luck, this can be improved (as well as all other stats) over the course of your game. So, just as Lucy's fate has turned in the series, you can also improve it over time.
| SPECIAL Stat | Points |
|---|---|
| strength | 2 |
| perception | 3 |
| Endurance | 4 |
| charisma | 5 |
| Intelligence | 7 |
| skill | 4 |
| Chance | 3 |
Best perks for Lucy Build in Fallout 4
During your adventures as Lucy, you'll be able to improve your SPECIAL stats and choose perks from each stat group. Below are my suggestions for perks based on Lucy's abilities shown in Amazon Prime's Fallout.
| SPECIAL Stat | SPECIAL Advantage |
|---|---|
| strength | Steady Goal – Lucy is best with the gun, so unlocking this perk will improve her hip-fire accuracy. |
| perception | Consciousness – Although inexperienced in life outside the vault, Lucy showed a high level of awareness (she noticed something was off with her new husband). |
| Endurance | Hardness – She was injured but kept fighting! She is one tough resident of the vault. |
| charisma | Inspirational – Lucy has the power to change not only her teammates but the world! |
| Intelligence | Doctor, Hacker, Science, Robotics Expert – Lucy was prepared for her challenges thanks to years of education. |
| skill | Sneak, Moving Target – Lucy was well trained and in great physical shape, so beating her is easier said than done. |
| Chance | Mysterious Stranger, Four Leaf Clover – It takes a lot of luck and the help of strangers to survive everything thrown at her. |
Best Lucy MacLean Weapon in Fallout 4
The best weapon for Lucy MacLean in Fallout 4 is Syringer. This gun uses syringe ammo to damage and debuff enemies, depending on the type of ammo you use. Of the many ammo variants, Lucy will definitely choose a Pax syringe variant that renders targets non-violent.
Where to find Syringer in Fallout 4
Fallout 4 weapon Syringer is located in the Great Mass Blood Clinic. You will need to invest two points in a Picklock to pick a lock on expert level difficulty. When you enter, go to the basement and shoot some mosquitoes (it's a blood clinic, remember?). After exploring a few rooms, you'll find a syringe on the table. As for ammo, you'll need to craft it at a Chemistry Station.
