Perks comprise three categories: level perks, support perks and weapon perks.
Level perks can be gained every 3 or 4 levels, depending on what traits your character has, using the perk selection window that appears on the character screen whenever it is possible for you to acquire a new ability.
Any support perk can be gained at any time through talking to an NPC that gives it, provided that your character meets its requirements. There is no limit as to how many support perks a character can have.
Weapon perks denote special qualities that some of the weapons have, and cannot be influenced in any way by players, save for upgrading the weapon.
Regardless of its type, gaining a perk permanently unlocks its bonus, e.g. gaining Lifegiver increases the number of hit points your character has forever. There is no possibility of reverting the choice of a perk once the decision has been made. It is entirely up to the player to decide whether or not s/he wishes to gain a perk when given the possibility; no system exists to randomly select a perk should no decision be made by the player.
It is important to note that omitting to choose a perk at a given level results in its loss if then another level is reached such that it would normally allow your character to choose a perk additional to that which you decided not to acquire when given the option.
Some perks have more than one rank, i.e. it is possible to gain them more than once. Typically, the higher the rank of a perk, the greater the bonus it gives is. Requirements may vary for different ranks of a perk, usually the higher the rank, the higher the skill/level requirements that must be met prior to acquiring it are.
Note: When determining what perks can be gained by a player, the game checks his/her nominal statistics. It is therefore impossible for a character whose base Strength is 5 to take a perk requiring at least 6 points of Strength, for example, even if s/he temporarily gains a point of Strength by using a strength-enhancing drug prior to opening the perk selection window or initiating a dialogue with an NPC.
