Perks

Perks are passive abilities that improve your character in some way. There are different categories of perks: some you select when you level up (you get a new one every third or fourth level, depending on if you have the Skilled Trait or not), some are awards for completing certain quests, and others are tied to a specific weapon or item and unlocked by your skill levels.

Level up perks

If you don't have the Skilled trait, you get to choose a new perk every third level (so level 3, 6, 9, etc), up to and including level 24. If you do have the skilled trait, you only get a perk every fourth level (level 4, 8, 12, etc), up to and including level 24. The perks you can choose from are these:
