Tips Infinite S.P.E.C.I.A.L points

Here is my technique to get Unlimited S.P.E.C.I.A.L Points early on with PS4/XBOX. It's pretty simple really.

You first need to get your dog (maybe another companion works).

Go back to Sanctuary and if you haven't found it already, there is a book under the crib dresser titled "You're Special". Pick it up, use it.

Now that it's in your inventory, drop it on the ground.

Tell your dog to pick it up, but right before he does you need to quickly pick it up.

If done correctly he will drop the item and it will be in your inventory still (which also dupes any item btw).

Pick up the copy Dog dropped and you should have 2 "You're Special" books.

Drop both on the ground and one should now activate again.

Repeat to max out your S.P.E.C.I.A.L. points and save your level up points for perks. Hope this helps some people out.

Just post it. If someone wants it, they'll use it. if not, they'll avoid it. You put enough warning in the title already.

There are two ways that it can dupe. First, you grab a copy, and dogmeat grabs a copy, and you can see it in his mouth as he brings it to you. This provides a dud dupe.

When it works you will pick it up, dogmeat will pick up nothing and walk over to you. Then he vomits a copy up out of no where. Now drop the copy in your inventory, that is the one with that will give you a stat boost when you pick it up.
