VaultTecGuide

In Fallout Shelter, SPECIAL stats stand for Strength, Perception, Endurance, Charisma, Intelligence, Agility, and Luck. Each one affects your dwellers in unique ways! Strength boosts production in power plants, Perception helps with water purification, Endurance increases dweller health and is key for wasteland exploration, Charisma boosts reproduction speed in the living quarters and attracts new dwellers, Intelligence governs your medbay and science lab efficiency, Agility improves food production speed, and Luck enhances the chances of success in the wasteland and increases caps found. So, basically, the better the SPECIAL stats, the happier and more productive your vault!

SPECIAL stats are super simple: Strength is for smashing, Perception is for peeping, Endurance is for energizing, Charisma is for charming, Intelligence is for imagining, Agility is for action, and Luck... well, that's for looting. Get those stats up, and watch your vault thrive!

Honestly, just max out Luck for everyone. You'll rake in so many more caps, and in the wasteland, caps are king. Who needs food, water, or power when you've got luck on your side, right?
