This mod aims, to make some ranged Perks, defensive Perks and utility Perks better. And companions Perks.

I was unhappy with how Bethesda did ranged Perks, leaving out Guns and Energy weapons. I felt there should be Perks for them like there is for Melee, Unarmed and Heavy Weapon. So I started working on the Total Weapon perk Overhaul. After completing that I aimed at improving the defense Perks and making the utility Perks like Leadbelly seem more worth while, by making them have less perk levels but still apply all the affects.

This is my first Fallout 4 mod, but I have been tinkering with it off and on for a while now. Still needs testing and most likely another pass at balance tuning, but this is the first release, install have fun.
