How is a baby's SPECIAL determined in Fallout Shelter?
In Fallout Shelter, a baby's SPECIAL is influenced by their parents' stats. The higher the parents' stats, the better the chances the baby will inherit high SPECIAL stats. However, there's also an element of randomness involved, so you might get some surprises! Good luck matching your Dwellers!

Just to keep it simple - genetics and a bit of luck! A baby's stats get a boost from their parents' SPECIAL stats. Think of it as the game's way of simulating genetics. So, pair up your Dwellers wisely if you're aiming for some super babies.
It's all RNG, mates. Sure, parents' SPECIAL plays a part, but don't expect miracles. Best advice? Focus on upgrading your Dwellers' stats across the board; makes for a stronger Vault in the long run.
