I’ve been playing Fallout 76 without worrying too much about builds, just enjoying the game my way. A friend mentioned that having specific builds, like focusing on power armor or melee, is crucial. Do you think I need to focus on building a certain way to succeed, or can I just keep winging it?

Honestly, you can play however you like. If you’re just exploring and having a relaxing time, there’s no need to stress about builds. But if you want to chase after the top gear or participate in competitive events, then yes, specializing might help you keep up with others.
Not really! I’ve played over 900 levels with a generalist build and have had a ton of fun. The game isn’t so strict that only the meta builds work. Just enjoy the game your way and focus on what’s fun, whether that’s crafting or fighting.
I say wing it! I focus more on crafting and having a good time. Get some perk cards for crafting and enjoy the game—you don’t need to follow any rigid builds to have fun.
It depends on what you want to achieve in the game. If you’re aiming for maximum damage or protection, a tailored build is beneficial. But if you’re okay with being a bit less powerful, just play what you love!
