How to Use This Calculator
Step 1: Understand the Perk
The Awareness perk improves your VATS accuracy based on your Perception (PER). As your Perception increases, your accuracy improves, but the gains diminish after a soft cap at PER 60. A minimum of PER 10 is required to detect enemy weaknesses in VATS.
Step 2: Review the Graph
The graph displays how Perception (PER) affects your accuracy in VATS. Accuracy increases steadily up to the soft cap at PER 60, where diminishing returns begin, and growth slows significantly.
Step 3: Explore the Table
The table provides the exact and rounded VATS accuracy percentages for each Perception point, from 1 to 100. The soft cap is marked at PER 60, where the accuracy gain per point decreases noticeably.
Note about Awareness Perk Card:
VATS hit chance calculation is complex and influenced by multiple factors. Awareness functions similarly to the 2-star VATS Enhanced mod (+50% VATS hit chance), applying a multiplier after the base VATS hit chance is calculated but before Concentrated Fire bonuses are added.
To maximize VATS hit chance:
Optimize the weapon's range stat.
Reduce distance to the target.
Increase Perception significantly.
With approximately 25 Perception, Awareness provides about half the benefit of the 2-star VATS Enhanced mod. Bonuses to VATS accuracy, such as from Awareness and VATS Enhanced, appear to use a Peak Value Modifier, meaning only the most recently applied effect is active. For optimal results, using Concentrated Fire rank 3 provides the largest additional benefit aside from weapon range.

I'm an Aussie data miner who creates guides for farming, events, and food buffs in Fallout 76.
I firmly believe that knowledge should be accessible to everyone, so my guides will always be free. However, maintaining a website and using photo and video editing software can be costly.
If you find my guides useful, here are a few ways you can support me:
