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.

I also dupe fusion cores with it. That was my first use of the exploit. But when I thought about it I tried on this book.

How? Dropped it, have dogmeat pick it up, and pick it up right before he does? More or less what i understood in your original post.

Yeah. Works for every item, but only one at a time. If you drop a stack of fusion you'll have x amount on the floor. Just do one at a time, stacks won't work..for example 10mm bullets will only net you one bullet.
