So how would you all reformat the perk chart? I mentioned it earlier, but lockpicking 4 is utterly useless. Something that improves loot in high level containers would be pretty cool, especially if it gave you a chance at getting a legendary (metal armor leg that gives you 5% less damage from ghouls). VANS is a joke. I think that a perk that improves functionality of your radar or VATS would be pretty cool. Maybe give you the tracking weapon mod effect on by default, or something. sector_corrector fucked around with this message at 20:18 on Nov 19, 2015 |

Maybe class them by type instead of SPECIAL? Combat, exploration, survival/health, and interaction?

Your Dunkle Sans posted:Is anyone else having issues with disappearing companions? I just recruited Strong and I'm trying to dismiss Dogmeat to Red Rocket where I have all of my other companions (so far: Piper, Preston, Sheffield... Codsworth is still in Sanctuary) and at least one companion will just straight up disappear. It doesn't matter who I send dismiss next - Strong, Dogmeat, whatever - at least one person will disappear without a way to get them back. You know, it would be great if your Pip-boy could tell you which settlement your companions are hanging out at. I always send them to the Red Rocket station to keep track. sector_corrector posted:VANS is a joke. I think that a perk that improves functionality of your radar or VATS would be pretty cool.

Zaphod42 posted:That is weird. If you dismiss somebody they have to walk so they may not show up for awhile, but you're saying its other companions who get displaced, right? Weird. Probably a bug, unless there's some hidden limit on how many companions can be in one area Okay, this might be the case since usually when I fast-travel the dismissed companion shows up there instantly. I will assume this is the case for right now. I'm hoping there will be a companion manager mod released in the near future to make sure where my companions are at. I really don't want this to be a bug where I have to lose a companion. Any idea if the number of beds at a settlement has anything to do with it? Is there some kind of limit on how many companions you can have at a location? I'd prefer to stash all my companions at the Red Rocket if I can.

I came to think of something. At Covenant, during the SAFE test, they ask you which baseball position you would prefer and the holotapes in the compound mention that there is something weird about synths and baseball, in that they all answer the same on that question. If you listen to one of the torture tapes, the subject answers that he would be a Catcher. Well, in the beginning of the game, if you play as the male character, it seems he wants Shaun to become a catcher when he grows up, and even has a baseball glove near his bed. Since all the synths are based off of Shaun, they all also want to be catchers. I wonder if there are any more subtle hints like this. Not that you'd figure it out before you get it explained to you later anyway, though.

I'd also get rid of the Day / Night related perks. The night ones give you a boost to PER / INT stats, which is hardly noticeable. Nightvision while sneaking is ultimately useless, since there's never anywhere dark enough for that to matter in the slightest. Solar powered seems a bit more useful, since STR and END's passive benefits are actually somewhat useful and noticeable, but the regeneration effects in sunlight are laughable for the same reason Lockpicking 4 is useless: if you're playing the game correctly you have more healing and more radiation protection than you could ever hope to use. And, once again, unless you take a lot of effort to only operate in the daytime, you're only getting bonuses 50% of the time. Both perks only cap out so late in the game that nothing they do could possibly be of use to a player at that point. I don't know what I would replace it with, but that whole idea would be gone altogether.

Alternativly anyone could just check the energy resistance of people because synths have natural resistance for some reason making any and all quests where you wonder if someone is a synth completely stupid.

Idiot Savant is a really stupid perk that feels like a holdover from a different version of the game with more dialogue choices and totally different mechanics. It's bad that it's a much more rewarding investment than raising INT for a moderately intelligent PC, it's bad that it's associated with having moderate Luck for no reason, and it's bad that it plays that terrible retarded guy sound effect when it procs while having no other meaningful impact on your character or dialogue.

Well, they're still being attacked by super mutants and raiders (unless you jack up their defense rating so they never get attacked off-screen). It's not exactly a free and easy life, haha. I'm not sure how you get a settlement's happiness boosted all the way to 100. I guess give them one of every store, max out their defenses?

There's this one guy who goes around to conventions I've seen and he had made his own custom pip-boy playing music (with a wonderful outfit) and he'd even give out free Nuka-Cola bottlecaps to people who recognized his stuff. Haha. He was dressed like a hodge-podge Courier with patches sewn on his coat from all the places in New Vegas he'd visited, I loved it.

Okay so Dr.Sun is bugged now after the quest where he becomes the facial surgeon and wandering the wasteland endlessly cause Bethesda are poo poo at everything they do. Is there another facial surgeon somewhere? I'd like to avoid using console commands cause people have reported that it can be gamebreaking.
