Fallout 4 primary statistics

==Overview==
Instead of 33 in Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas, in Fallout 4, the player character can invest 21 attribute points into the SPECIAL stats at the beginning of the game. Unlike the previous games each SPECIAL stat starts out at 1 instead of 5. Later the player can upgrade their SPECIAL stats when leveling up. (Total starting attributes is 28 compared to 40 in prior games).
Unlike in previous games, it appears that all SPECIAL stats can be meaningfully boosted past 10. In other words, temporary (e.g. chems) and static (e.g. from clothing) boosts are allowed to bring your stats higher than 10, and have a functional benefit. For a more permanent adjustment, bobbleheads can permanently raise a stat by 1 point (doesn't count towards perk requirements).

==Notes==
* After exiting Vault 111, the Sole Survivor can find a "You're SPECIAL!" book under Shaun's crib in Sanctuary Hills, which allows raising of one of the primary statistics by one. This normally cannot be used to raise a stat already at 10 to 11. However, one can use a temporary stat loss from a consumable to decrease a current SPECIAL stat and then use the book to upgrade that stat. When the consumable's effect wears off, they will have gained an extra point in that SPECIAL stat permanently. This means that it is possible raise a stat to 12, if one already had a stat at 11 prior to using the book. Liam's glasses may also be used for Charisma only.
** In survival mode, one's stats can decrease by becoming hungry, thirsty, diseased or tired.
** Getting addicted to X-cell will drop every stat by one, so any stat can be increased this way.
