Hacker is an Intelligence Perk in Fallout 4 (FO4). Learn if Hacker is worth it, Hacker's ID and ranks, as well as how to get and unlock Hacker.
Hacker is one of the best perks to get since it can completely prevent you from being locked out of terminals once you reach Rank 4 of this perk. At earlier ranks, you can start hacking into difficult terminals, which may lead you to unique weapons, as well as shortcuts and access to turret controls in hostile facilities.
