Question about Strong Back and Lone Wanderer

[dragonvale]

Hi everyone,

 

as the title says, I've a question about these two skills.

 

I'm playing in Survival Mode and I'm at Lvl 17.

My current carryweight is 300 (60 are from Deep Pocketed armor pieces and 10 from Army fatigues) and I've 2 points invested in Lone Wanderer (+50% carryweight).

 

My Strenght is at 3 and I've 4 points to assign. If I put them in order to get the first grade of Strong Back, my carryweight goes to 355 (10 x lvl + 25 by SB).

 

My question is... shouldn't they increase by 50% since I've LW?

 

For example: 10 x level in Strenght + 50% by LW = 15 x level? Shouldn't it work like this? Or am I wrong?

 

Thanks in advance

 

 

UPDATE!

 

Since I play in Italian, I loaded Fallout4.esm (D:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Fallout 4\Data) in xTranslator to read the original English description and the translations of Lone Wanderer perks are NOT correct!! :ohmy:

 

English text says 50 carryweight for the first grade and 100 carryweight for the second, while the text in Italian says +25% and +50%... what the hell???

 

Anyway, I hope this can help some Italian users.

 

Cheers!

1. Strong back perk works in all situations regardless of companions (players can get this perk only with 6 Strength Stat).

 

2. Lone wanderer perk works when you have no companions (except Dogmeat).

 

3. Every increase in Strength Stat result an increase of 10 carry weight.

 

4. Lone Wanderer perk increase your carry weight by 50 (NOT 50 percent) at level 1.

 

5. Lone Wanderer perk increase your carry weight to 100 at level 2 (50 plus 50 = 100, NOT 50 plus 100 = 150).

Thanks for your reply.

 

As I wrote in my previous post, I discovered that the translation in Italian is wrong, but in any case something with my carryweight is not right.

 

Base capacity in Survival is 75. I've 3 Strenght points so 75 + 30 = 105.

 

I've Army fatigues (+10) and Deep Pocketed armor pieces (+60) so 105 + 10 + 60 = 175

 

Then I've level 2 of Lone Wanderer that increase carry by 100 and if we add 175 my total inventory capacity should be 275 and NOT 300 (not that it's a bad thing :))

 

Now I've read that if you eat Grilled radstag and the buff expires while you're sleeping, sometimes the bonus remains so I think that my +25 capacity is from this "bug".
