Conservatives are closer to Dems than they are to the GOPNot of Leitch wins . <| sep |> Early levels of survival are very hard and it depends a lot on your character stats . But once you hit level 20 ish things start to get easier . Eventually it ' ll be easier than very hard . Stealth is very helpful . Those multipliers help a ton . When I first started playing I think I got to level 10 , started over with different stats and it really helped a lot . so if you are really having trouble still , maybe try a new playthrough . I haven ' t played with mods yet on survival , but when I do I don ' t plan to use a lot . I ' m still getting a feel for the mods we have and am hoping we get more of a selection like we do have in SSE . Better endurance helps you from getting sick , and better agility allows for stealth perks . There is more to it but those are the most important in my book . Oh I also like high Intelligence and decent charisma to get local leader perk .
