If I'm reading it correctly, I may be able to then turn those points into other ammo types including mini nukes. I assume those are used in nuke mines, so storing useless ammo as weightless points seems like a good idea. Or at least, not dissimilar to what I'm already doing with bulk legendary items.

Did The Pitt expedition in F76 for the first time, I guess it's alright and More Stuff To Do but there's nothing there rewardwise that really makes me excited to grind out stamps for them. Seems it would be better in a group because at least it would be much faster to take out the enemies and find the canisters to blow up. After not playing this for some months it really hits how annoying the scrip ecomomy is. The game tosses legendaries at you that you are unable to exchange after a while, forcing you to stockpile, give away or sell your extras for caps. I feel like it actually encourages me to play less each day.

Trying to max out all the F4 companions and I hate Strong so much. He doesn't like anything and dislikes everything. Should just see if there is a console command. The only really repeatable action he likes is cannibalism but that's a terrible option on survival mode.

I just hang out with Cait and mcready because they both seem to like stealing everything that isn't nailed down. They get annoyed when I actually try to help people though??

Dogmeat is the best companion. Dogmeat does not care about what you do, say or steal. Dogmeat does not talk. Dogmeat is short so even if he does run right up to an enemy you can shoot over him. Dogmeat is short so you can also jump over him is he blocks a door. Dogmeat is a good boy. Dogmeat loves to play fetch. Dogmeat is the bestest boy and bestest companion. In fact if there was a mod to have two doggos I would totally install it.

Dogmeat doesn't even count as a companion, so you can use him with Lone Wanderer. Strong likes helping people, but also likes being a dick in conversations. I know he got locked up by the other Super Mutants for trying to find "the milk of human kindness", but it would have been funnier if the whole tower of Super Mutants was quoting Macbeth while they shoot at you.

After watching Cait rip through like 2k 5mm rounds with the minigun in like 2 quests and constantly blowing stealth maybe it's better to go it alone

When I did my no-death Survival let's play, Danse and Dogmeat conspired to kill me by blocking a hallway when I tried to retreat.

The only really repeatable action he likes is cannibalism but that's a terrible option on survival mode. check how much your companion likes you by clicking on them in the console and typing "getav ca_ affinity" (no quotes) after that use "setav ca_affinity ###" and change the ### to 250, 500, 750 and finally 1000. If the companion for example is at 389 affinity, you can skip directly to 500. Do a thing the companion likes between each setav to trigger their unique affinity level dialogue dialogue.

Yeah I ended up looking how to do that earlier and just doing that. Thanks though. Trying to max out every companion is dumb and not really how the game was designed but oh well. It’s allowing me to see some dialogue and reactions I don’t normally see at least.

What's the best way to start picking up crafting plans in Fallout 76? All the vendors I've encountered at the stations seem to have furniture plans and a lot of mods, but not a lot of base weapon and armor types. Is there a type of mission I need to run to pick these up, or is it a matter of just coming across them in the wastes?

Whitesprings has all the weapons you can buy..generally you will get them by scrapping the guns after picking them up except for a few cases.

Pretty much every event you participate in will also reward you with plans. An easy way to snag some plans while also getting event rewards is to claim a workshop, (where you'll get rewarded a plan) . Defend the workshop a few minutes later when the event pops, get another plan as part of that reward.

In addition to what other people suggested, check vending machines in player camps! Many people have weapon and armor plans for sale; I always have any useful plans for equipment crafting I find for sale in my camp at rock-bottom prices for new players.

Yeah, I've probably scrapped over a hundred guns and armor pieces and picked up all sorts of mods, but can't craft the base items. Thanks for the tip on Whitesprings. Maybe I should do the mission I have on hold there. Wee Bairns posted:Pretty much every event you participate in will also reward you with plans.

I dump all my known plans for 1 cap into my vendors and it makes me happy when people stock up.

Yeah, your vendor is tied to your camp, which is only in-world when you are, so it disappears if you log off or switch servers. That being said, you don't have to be there for sales, and I always enjoy hearing the cash register sound effect that plays when I make a sale when I'm off being a murderhobo. I keep my vending machine fully loaded, with a mix of cheap plans and ammo for levelers with expensive cosmetic clothing and fancy camp decorations for the big spenders, and I reliably have more caps than I know what to do with. I'm level 168, for perspective, and not a hardcore player at all.

Correct, only when you're on a server and playing and not wanted (wanted status hides your camp from everyone else). I put all my plans in at 25 caps. I like when people hit me up, but I get annoyed at the people buying like, 5 ultracite armor plans to resell them for full price (sit in their machine). But it gets them off my inventory so I don't really care.

Advanced the minutemen stuff in fo4 and man, they actually really suck as a faction. I get there needs to be people trying to restore the wasteland but they're not interesting at all so far. Got some artillery I think I'll never use. Dipped into the dlcs though, far harbor (fahaba?) Was fun, the fog not as bad as I thought it would be and acadia made me not like the railroad as much when they mentioned how messed up it is that they wipe all the synths memories. Starting the nuka world stuff and I can already tell with 5 parks and 3 gangs that one of them is going to be very unhappy, probably the pack because the I'M AN ALPHA, BRO energy is annoying and if they want land they should go take it. The disciples are messed up, but outside of dixie seem like they're similar to old raiders, just violent murder machines unlike the fo4 raiders it seems they tried to make regret their actions or frame them as trying to survive. It's also nice that everyone doesn't react to the overboss rocking up and grabbing everything with no sneaking.

Also FYI if Preston is holding anything it's going to be gone forever if you start putting raider outposts in the Commonwealth. NukaWorld was a neat idea for a DLC, but it shits the bed pretty hard towards the end when it tries to gamify Settlements.

I can put raider settlements in the commonwealth? Can I build a Raider empire to wipe the brotherhood off the map?? Preston has never made the cut as a follower. I had Piper for a while but switched to macready and now cait because they don't care if I steal everything. The mayor guy seems like he'd be a pretty chill companion, though always asking for extra caps as rewards and stealing would probably be negative

ilmucche posted:I can put raider settlements in the commonwealth? Can I build a Raider empire to wipe the brotherhood off the map?? Yes, but you'll have to have *regular* settlements with enough resources to provide both themselves and the raiders with food and water. Also once a settlement is chosen to pay tribute to your raiders, building and any customization whatsoever is locked. Like everything else in Fallout 4, it wasn't entirely thought out and what did get implemented is janky as all hell.

I normally rock with the mod that just skips setting up raider settlements they are so terrible. For instance there is no way to turn off recruiting for them like you can a normal settlement. They hate doing any jobs and get unhappy if they have to do so but constantly get more raiders and will run out of food unless the farm supplying them is well built up. The story of the dlc is left unchanged it just skips the settlement part. Preston also doesn't get mad at you but honestly who cares anyway the entire minute men faction sucks rear end. I personally hate settlements in general so your mileage may vary.

I've recently become a big fan of FO4 artillery after learning that the range is huge (5 map squares) and that every settlement in range fires a volley. It's made clearing out some of the shittier towns like Quincy and open world super mutant camps much easier.

All this FO4 talk has me thinking about something I wanted to try but never did - I love building settlements, but hate settlers, for the most part. You could absolutely do a run with 0 human settlers, and just build a robot for each settlement to act as a supply runner to connect their shared storage capacity, right? Edit: as long as you don't build a recruitment beacon, no humans should ever show up, right? I know a few settlements start with one or two people, but I could just send them all to sanctuary to live in the ruins with Preston and his merry band of idiots, so long as I don't have more people turning up of their own volition.

If I make robot settlers with the Machinist DLC, can they act as caravans? Basically, I want a run with just me and my various robot minions, no settlers, no human companions. Dogmeat is cool though, he can hang with me and my robots.
