The Outer Worlds perks: all the buffs for your character

The Outer Worlds perks make up a large part of how your character plays and interacts with the world around them. Some of these stat boosts open up more dialogue options while others boost your critical damage. So, if you're thinking about what the best Outer Worlds builds for you may be, chances are perks will get you most of the way there - be it a gun-toting outlaw or a sweet talkin' con man.

There are a total of 42 perks in The Outer Worlds for you to pick from for your character, and there's no limit to the amount you can equip. These perks are, however, organised into three tiers - one being the lowest, three being the highest. To unlock perks in a higher tier you'll need to unlock a certain amount in the tier below. Oh, and you can respec your perks if you've made a bad call - it'll set you back 500 Bit Cartridges at first, and the amount increases every time - so keep that in mind.

Throughout this guide we'll detail all The Outer Worlds perks you'll come across in your jaunt across Obsidian's space RPG. We'll also divvy them up into their tiers so you can weigh them up against each other.
