Goodness gracious, great balls of lightning!
The junk you pick up like duct tape and steel is broken down into materials needed for the crafting systems like weapon mods, armor mods, and settlement stuff. You're gonna need a ton of duct tape if you want to craft weapon mods and so forth. You also have to level up this perk called Gun Nut to gain access to more advanced mods.

Weapons in Fallout 4 don't break so you can drop multiple versions of the same weapon unless you want to sell them for caps. You can however break down weapons at the workbench for extra junk materials needed for mods.

As for caps, there's a perk in the Luck set which lets you find more caps in nearly everything you loot. There's also side-quests for all the main factions which will allow you to make a lot of caps as well. Setting up shops in settlements will also let you get caps too.

I love you, son.
Make sure to keep a pipe rifle on you at all times because the ammo for those things is pretty much infinite.

Also seeing as you're on Very Hard difficulty be prepared for bullet sponge enemies.

Get Gun Nut rank 2 so you can make a supressor for your 10mm to make stealth more viable

This

And watch out for enemies with a skull next to their healthbar. It means that they are a higher level than you and they can kill you in just a few hits.

Well yeah, I know it won't stay that way but I do prefer stealth + normal weapons and melee. It's how I played New Vegas too. I guess playstyle is a better word than build?

There are no builds or playstyles in fallout 4

It all eventually devolves into just running into a base with a combat rifle or a laser rifle.

How exactly do you break things down? I've just placed it all in the workbench but didn't see an option to turn it into scrap.
Drop it and then scrap it as you would a settlement piece.

If you're going stealth then melee VATS is a lot of fun.

9 STR, 9 AGI

Get blitz, ninja, rooted and any other melee bonus perks. Literally one shot everything. You can mix some gunplay in their too with sandman.

That sounds moderately disappointing.
well you can deliberately limit yourself to make it more interesting, but yeah if you're just using whatever is best then that is unfortunately the case

I mean, there is.

But the game lacks the right... things for builds to be even worth investing in, you'll always end up pulling out a rifle and going loud at the end of the day.

The game hardly lets you be anything else

Yeah but that's you setting artificial restrictions. In FO3 or NV, switching from guns to melee means you're not going to be as effective because you haven't put as many skill points into the latter.

In Fallout 4, you can go from a gunslinger to a sledgehammer no problem. It ends up being a game about doing things the most efficient way.

Making stimpacks is kind of handy IMO

Later on in the game, well depending on how quick you plan on doing the main story, there is this place called Fort Hagen and near there is a pre-war blood bank with a surplus of blood packs for making stimpacks.

His eyebrows sparkling, his white beard hangs down to his chest. The thatched mats, spread outside his chise, spread softly, his splendid attos. He polishes, cross-legged, his makiri, with his eyes completely absorbed.

He is Ainu.

The god of Ainu Mosir, Ae-Oine Kamuy, descendant of Okiku-Rumi, He perishes, a living corpse. The summers day, the white sunlight, unabrushed, ends simply through his breath alone.

Untrue. I run into a base with a Super Sledge. It's much more fun to bludgeon everything to death than ping people with a rifle.

There's more then one, it can randomly drop from enemies, and from legendary ones as well with legendary buffs.

Oh, I stand corrected then. I've never seen an enemy drop it before though.
