Need advice to build the perfect fighting survivor

I have an unbreakable character (+45 health and -100% injury chance) and I'm having some doubts on some specializations, I will be using books to change if needed. What I'm aiming at:

1 - Marathon (unlimited light weight sprint)

2 - Discipline (more light weight and durability)

3 - Swordplay (for lethality)

4 - Gunslinging (to not die to blood ferals)

5 - Pathology (50 infection resistance and 1° aid kits)

I intend to use lightweight blade weapons and pistols

Is this the best I can build or should I change anything?

The mechanics questline, juggernauts and stupid npcs

I got frustrated by how stupid npcs are in this game and how the player has to babysit them all the time

I was doing a questline for some mechanics for the first time, and then one of them told me the next quest was a siege. I had lots of 9mm ammo sitting around, so I got a pistol, 141 rounds and started the siege

So anyway, I started blasting

141 headshots? Pfff easy

And THEN! A juggernaut spawned, I immediately lured it away from the npcs while shooting it with my weak 4ss pistol, but THEN! A second juggernaut spawned... I tried to lure it away too while dealing with the first one to no avail

The dumb npcs all had guns with unlimited ammo, but they tried to melee the second juggernaut. All three of them got ripped in half

I needed to recruit a mechanic, all of them are dead, the questline has failed and I'm down on 141 rounds of 9mm

Now I'll never now what car they would have given me. Maybe next time

Heartland: Game started stuttering, need help

Well, it was running pretty well, I have 50 hours played with three digits FPS. Then, while playing the Heartland story, it started to stutter like crazy, it is not playable, there is no way to fight a feral like this. I looked up, I've found some things I tried to no avail:

Verified files and restarted PC. No change
All graphics to low, to medium, to high and to ultra. No change
Deconstructed the Staging Area. No change
Motion blur on and off. No change
Display to fullscreem and windowed. No change
Changed resolutions. No change

Drivers up to date

I don't know, maybe this game is broken. Does anyone have any other ideas I could try?

I hope in this one we will have more gun attachments options

Aside from the muzzle attachments, I would really like to be able to find scopes, bigger mags, foregrips, maybe even stocks to build guns. You know, find an standard AR and as the game progresses, your gun will also get better through attachments you find or remove from other guns. That would be neat

Breakpoint: how does wound resistance work?

While having the perk with +50%, +40% from bivouac +10% from food that totals 100% resistance. Why do I still get wounded if I get shot? Does anyone knows how this works? Or it is simply bugged and doesnt work at all?

I had the "Stone Cold" mission bugged and it was the most frustrating thing

For context I play solo, extreme, 1 primary, no HUD, etc and it is my first time playing this game.

SPOILERS

In this mission, you have to disable 3 fuse boxes in different locations to open a door to kill Stone. It takes a few seconds of animation to do it and it is on a timer. However, it was impossible, I just couldnt do it because as soon as I started the animation, more wolfs would come so I would fight them, start, cancel, fight, start, cancel, fight, die.

It was 2 hours of this, I was almost giving up. Until, the game crashed.

When I started the game again, REBELS SPAWNED WHAT!? REBELS ARE SUPPOSED TO SPAWN AT THE BASE!? REALLY!?

Of course I did it first try while the rebels kept the wolfs busy

Stupid bug, almost made me uninstall the game ffs

Science Without Conscience impossible on Extreme?

Just like the An Eye for an A.I., this mission is retarded. Wolves spawn in packs of three, but in this one they come through 2 different doors AND when I die or the stupid dude I have to "protect" dies, it resets the location so I have to clear it all over again.

This is garbage game design, untested trash

Looking for tips for playing "extra" extreme difficulty

Got bored at Tier 35 because the game became too easy even at extreme difficulty, the rebel abilties and sync shots are OP af. I decided to start over at extreme difficulty with some extras:

No HUD at all, so no marking enemies

No team mates, so no sync shot

No OP rebel abilities

Only 1 primary

It is a really different experience, I love and hate it. I'm level 17, M4A1 with the grenade launcher, 1x3x scope, P12 for pistol. I know a fixed location to pick up a helicopter with guns to take on convoys and farm resources, tried blocking the road and sniping the driver but that is too unreliable

Any tips to improve my performance? A different gun or pro strategy for taking on bases and convoys? I still die a lot even with maxed out stealth and resistance

Ps. I never liked the hardcore experience where you lose the character upon death, too many times I've lost hours because of a bug or a flying vehicle, so Ghost Mode is a no no

Can someone explain to me the loot boxes?

I'm a complete noob, I know nothing about this game or its franchise, but I'm really enjoying it and probably will end up becoming a fan.

I would like to ask for help regarding the "loot boxes". I hate this stuff, but it is a common thing on modern gaming so we must go along with it. At first I completely ignored it but I've heard that you can earn them without spending more money and it is possible to get the HK416 from the boxes

Can someone explain how it works and how can I get the HK416 in a complete noob way?

I'm tired of being at a disadvantage. Every player I kill or kills me are full T5 gear and ammo with a 650-700k weapon (disassembled weapons to fill the entry budget), some guys I killed didnt even had a backpack. From what I understood, T1 to T4 is competely obsolete on lockdown.

Can someone please recommend me a T5 loadout to start off? Do I go for cheapest T5 armor or is that a bad idea?

One of the signature caracteristics of the PARAFAL is the foldable stock, but in the game it isnt possible to fold it. It doesnt work as it should or am I doing something wrong?
