Then, once the survival skill reaches 50, you automatically unlock a Vanilla recipe which converts 5 dirty water bottles into 4 purified water bottles, entirely eliminating the perk's only drawback. Since empty bottles are very easy to find lying around and functional toilets aren't exactly hard to find, this adds up very quickly and makes trivially easy to get water in hardcore mode (even in non-hardcore mode, it provides a way to hoard healing items for free). Boring, but Practical: Drink to Last! allows to convert most of the empty bottle-type items (minus the milk bottles) into bottles of dirty water when interacting with functional toilets (the ones you can drink in).Toast to Victory: The companions receive a buff similar to the one given by alcohol during fights.
As a Ranger/former Ranger (the description text isn't very explicit), you start with +1 in Agility and a pretty powerful revolver but suffer from more damage from the various Raider factions.
