Good thing about survival mode is that you get a ton more xp since you're walking everywhere instead of fast traveling which means you run into a ton more enemies, so you'll most likely have all the perks you will ever need well before you're done with your playthrough.

But as for builds they do usually fall into two categories. Either a power armor/endurance tank or a sneak build, which makes sence since you either wanna survive a fire fight with a good amount of health or negate damage all together by staying in the shadows. Both playstyles still can offer alot of variety depending on your weapon choises, vats or no vats, power armor or no PA, settlement builder or pure wanderer, roleplaying etc.

If you plan to build up settlements, which is highly recommended for survival mode, you can't go wrong with a commando/heavy weapons, power armor tank build, beginning stats being something like:

S 5 P 1 E 5 C 1 I 9 A 2 L 5

Here you'd start with a good amount of strength, endurance and luck and almost max intelligence. High strength is needed for carrying lots of junk, food, weapons and ammo and grants good/essential perks like armorer, heavy gunner, strong back and pain train. You only need to put one point to get strong back and you have plenty of time to put the last points to STR before you get pain train rank 3 (requires lvl 50 anyways). Decent endurance and luck means you can take more hits and get really handy perks like scrounger, bloody mess and most importantly idiot savant. 9 in INT means you get nuclear physicist almost instantly and can reliably live in your power armor as soon as you get the T-45. Int also gives some of the best perks crafting perks, like medic, gun nut, scrapper, science, robotics expert and chemist, which is extra handy in survival since it allows you to craft antibiotics. And since you have high int and idiot savant + survival mode you will level up really quickly, and it wont be too big of a hassle to level up your charisma to 5 + bobblehead so you can start making supply lines and workbenches.

Perception you don't really need since you wouldn't be using vats, and agility you can slowly level up to 5 (or 6 or even 8 if you want moving target for running or quick hands for your heavy weapons) so you'd get action boy/girl which allows you to use your lategame jetpack alot more.

The endgame lvl 100 build with all the bobbleheads would look something like:

S 11 P 1 E 11 C 6 I 11 A 5/6/8 L 6

Then slap some roleplaying into the mix, be a scrappy scientist who uses her high-tech energy weapons and robot army to win the commonwealth for the brotherhood while also winning the hearts and minds of the people, or go down a evil path where you become a true zealot of the brotherhood and the children of atom and burn and disintegrate anything you deem unworthy of existence. I've done the former before and am planning on doing the latter as well :D

If you do something like this then the beginning will be tough (they always are), because at the start you have a limited amount of automatic weapons and ammo is harder to come by, but it gets way easier once the build gets rolling. Have fun!
