Sensenmann posted:All turrets can glitch out like this. There is one during Rad Rumble that will do the same and fire on everyone without doing any damage. They do it consistently, problem is they damage my poo poo with misses instead of the invincible traders. Also the mobs frequently spawn inside the structures. Didn't know defenses made it more likely, guess I'll get rid of them.

Sensenmann posted:Any defense items in your camp will attract more mobs, so having none will severely decrease camp attacks. They also eat a lot of budget. Wait, what? Isn't this the exact opposite of how it worked with settlements in Fallout 4? I went ahead and subbed to Fallout 1st yesterday. Please tell me you can place the special lobby shelter without that ENORMOUS vault door. It actually can't be built anywhere in my camp because the ground isn't flat enough. Also, I saw there's some riot paint for the ranger helmet, but I'm not sure if it was limited release or if it's in the atom store rotation? The scrap box and ammo box are so nice, but my entire vendoring workflow has been destroyed. Everything goes in its box and there's always room. I don't even have to separate out the bunk/heavy ammo types anymore. It honestly feels like cheating in a sense after all the time I spent sorting ammo, processing it in the ammo machine or dropping it. Oh, I did a couple more mutated events yesterday and both actually improved the event. It was Guided Meditation, first time with stealth ghouls, second time with super fast ghouls. Stealth meant instead of sniping everything from a mile away people were posted throughout the path watching for the stealth blurs. Super fast was just chaotic, it was surprisingly fun.

I will look at it again tonight, thanks. My utility room works, but it is starting to feel cramped. Too bad theres no option to fast travel into the shelter like the other fast travel interiors. Is there a "best" shelter? I considered buying the storage shelter because it looks like it has a huge buildable space and I thought about putting my own Nuka-Cade together. e: Does anyone know what the new scrip cap is?

Yeah, that's a good change, no doubt. Not a bad patch in general although I feel as if some of the DO mutations should not have been brought outside to the big events. Active Camo is just annoying, no matter the event. And Reflective Damage, the new one, hits like a truck. Unless I'm at 60% health, I will die when that triggers. Seems excessive.

Reflective is a tough one, but when I get it in moonshine jamboree, I feel like people would be fine if they just slowed their reactions to enemies. The stills can take a bit of abuse and a couple stray rounds can pull most enemies your way, so it becomes more of a game of stop-go... Except for the explosives users and the teslas smart enough to shoot the ground or other players to start a chain. Active camo I actually really enjoy on guided meditation. I love holing up somewhere and waiting for the predator blurs to pop up, it feels better than one sniper locking the entire area down. Super fast is effectively the same except you need to be one-shotting them or they will eventually overwhelm the speakers. (Not that it's hard to repair them.) Also, I am enjoying the ability to reroll challenges, but it would be so much better if "do a daily op" didn't typically reroll to "do more daily ops/in a costume/in a group/intoxicated". It's mostly just good for the odd "use specific alcohol you don't have stocked" kinds of challenges.

I just got into this game. I keep scrapping all my junk, then putting all junk in my stash. That's the way to go right? All guns I have no use for I scrap as well. I just started building a base, but so far it's just some workbenches and a cooking station on the dirt floor. I found out if I join a group, I can benefit from it like the perk card where you do more or take less dmg in a team and free fast travels, without even bothering with actual multiplayer. Right now I just want to do the questing and that seems easy solo so far.

Except for the explosives users and the teslas smart enough to shoot the ground or other players to start a chain. Teslas don't deal high enough damage to be worried about the Reflective part, they're mob taggers for XP. Same for pretty much anything that isn't a high damage dealer. Plasma Caster, Plasma Gatling, RR, Auto Axe, full auto Fixer/Handmade or a Shotgun are the weapons you need to be careful with. I've gone from 80% HP to almost death from a single Plasma Caster hit that happened to trigger the Reflective Damage. I actually like it, it's fun although weird. I also wouldn't mind Active Camo if it weren't so buggy. Most of the time the mobs decloak after they've emptied half a mag into you. It's not hard, just annoying. And I agree on the re rolls. Bullshti challenge? Re roll it is. Sioux posted:I just got into this game. I keep scrapping all my junk, then putting all junk in my stash. That's the way to go right?

Keep a bit of everything but don't put too much into your stash. There is literally everything a quick fast travel away, you just have to know where to look. And yes, always join a group. If you are feeling particularly adventurous, try your luck with fast travelling to a high level team mate, they might take you on a tour across the wasteland. To places you definitely shouldn't be yet. I have a lot of fun doing that with low levels and it's usually a hoot and a half. Until they get annoying and start to spam the trade emote, at which point they get abandoned in a nasty place. Sensenmann fucked around with this message at 15:26 on Mar 8, 2023 |

Yeah, I was out with the Cold Shoulder to clear those daily/weekly challenges and got reflective Guided Meditation for the first time. I one-shotted myself a couple times with some poorly timed and apparently immaculately aimed shots. I think active camo and reflective both suffer from some server sync weirdness. I played resilient Moonshine Jamboree as well and had an absolute blast mixing it up down on the ground messing up enemies with the shotgun then finishing them off with a bash. It's a good loop, made the whole thing feel more visceral. Also, I noticed people get the chance to tag a lot more enemies, the tub filled up in no time.

I don't know why Bethesda chose to put something so basic behind a subscription, if they had even just sold unlimited stash for like $20 bucks I would have bought it in a heartbeat One thing that will probably blow up your stash weight is the amount of steel you collect, particularly if you compulsively pick up and scrap weapons with the scrapper perk like I do. One Eviction Notice can easily net you hundreds of units of steel from miniguns. My favorite way to deal with it is to process the excess into railway spikes and (if you have it) feed them directly into the ammo converter. I've effectively got ammo on demand since I've maxed out ammo points this way, it's surprisingly handy, particularly to save on lead or plastic. Definitely pay attention to stack weights for ammo and grenades and the like as well. If you don't have the ammo container from a subscription, I'd recommend either dumping or converting missiles, mini nukes, 40mm grenades, railway spikes, arrows, crossbow bolts, harpoons and syringer ammo because they are either too heavy or basically impossible to sell in your vendor. Maintaining a vendor with excess bulk and ammo can help you get something back as well, since it's not capped like the NPC vendors. Everyone does it a little differently, but I actually find some of those inventory management loops enjoyable.

It's worth pointing out that Beth would love to sell you unnlimited stash, it's just that the engine can't handle it without severe lag. Or downright crashes. The stash box works because everything you can put in there is stackable and has no condition. The reason the ammo box works is because it doesn't allow you to stuff Cores into it because they have a capacity. 100%, 99%, 98%, etc. you get the idea. Any other ammo type is, again, stackable. It's similar for weapons and armors. All have a condition. Fully repaired, half repaired, broken, anything in between. Add legendaries and the 3 modifiers into the mix and you get a couple dozen base ID items with hundreds and hundreds of variations thanks to the legendary modifier and the state the weapon/armor is in. I'm assuming that at some point they'll add a Med Box for all the chems because the same principle applies. All are stackable. Water, standard booze, Nuka Colas who knows. Probably not because they'd have to justify giving a box for that but not any other drink type. Food, weapons and armor, however, will never get their dedicated stash boxes unless they severely overhaul the engine, which I honestly doubt. As for caps, at some point you stop caring. I'm pretty much constantly at the max and occasionally bother to buy a serum recipe or a bunch of bulk junk just to get it back down again. Same for Gold, Stamps. Basically any currency that ain't scrip is bound to become obsolete at some point in your journey. I don't bother with Gold anymore. Got everything, so, Lunchboxes and Gum it is. If I feel like it. Same for Stamps. Got everything with the exception of like 4 or so plans, which I don't care for and will get anyway thanks to the 1 free plan a week thing. All that matters is scrip and even that gets kind of sidelined once you have your godrolls. I have a full set of Uny SS armor with AP refresh, several godroll Fixers and Railway Rifles, a full set of Overeaters T65, godroll .50, a Flamer, 5mm and a GP. There is nothing I actually need and at some point all of you will get there. TL;DR Don't sweat it and just play the way you enjoy.

Oh, that's kind of disappointing that the displays share a pool, particularly since they are two separate purchases. I don't really have a lot to display so it will probably work for me, but I could see where that could be a huge letdown for some. I will probably just throw out a few costumes that are different phases in my playthrough, I don't really have the kind of collections that people who have been around since day one have.

Sorry for the noob questions, but... Are you able to freely respec whenever you want? I just found out the punch card thing, I thought you could only change your perk cards but you can even change your SPECIAL points. Is there any way to gently caress up any build choices while leveling? What's the advantage of power armor? I have one, but never seem to use it because I don't really know why. I'm still leveling, so maybe it's not that important yet? Mine makes a beeping noise and has a blinking red light indicator. Is that a battery thing? I need plasma cartridges for my weapon, but to craft them I need a lot of lead and I don't have any. Where's the best place to get lead? If you move your camp, do you destroy any improvements or are they saved automatically?

Is that a battery thing? Strength (e.g. carrying capacity boost) and rad resistance; however it's not necessary if you have a good set of non-PA legendary armor. The only place it's really important is within nuke zones/highly irradiated areas if you don't plan on wearing a hazmat suit instead. In theory really good PA should be better than non-PA; in practice, a strong set of legendaries on Marine Armor or Secret Service Armor will make you nigh-invincible anyway. quote:I need plasma cartridges for my weapon, but to craft them I need a lot of lead and I don't have any. Where's the best place to get lead? Don't waste time crafting plasma while you're leveling, it won't be cost effective until you've got the right perks to reduce the amount of mats you need (as well as Super Duper). Instead, run Daily Ops. Every enemy you kill in a daily op, drops the type of ammo you used to kill them. So if you use a plasma rifle, every enemy you kill will drop plasma cartridges. Assuming you can kill them efficiently, you'll come out ahead. Regardless, always make that you whip out your plasma rifle again when choose to complete the run and enter the rewards screen -- whatever weapon you have selected at that time will be what the reward screen's ammo drops for you. It should be relatively easy to net a couple hundred additional cartridges each time you run one. quote:If you move your camp, do you destroy any improvements or are they saved automatically? Everything goes back into storage, either as a collective blueprint or as individual items; either way you can then replace it down for free.

Loot is personal, yes. The only time you might be justified in feeling guilty for looting everything you find is when you stumble upon a death bag after one of the Nuke events, grab all the Flux and some poor low level who just got yeeted and respawned sees "Someone else has taken your poo poo" in the top left corner of the screen.
