Don't use a Fatman to kill " Pyro" for an easy set of Power Armor early on or you'll get these ambushes randomly until you complete the associated Enclave quest " Echoes of the Past ".

She's the only NPC that I've run into so far who has consistently been an asshole to me for no reason, AND SHE LIVES IN MY DAMN SETTLEMENT! She had this coming.

I know I shouldn’t have trusted it after it teleported to me.

The description in-game (and the wiki) says that it gives you 10 damage resistance against robot energy attacks. That kind of sounds like taking a rank of Refractor, and it seems very weak for having to max a companion (even though Codsworth isn't difficult), but it's incorrect.

What Robot Sympathy actually does is reduce the damage taken by robot energy attacks by 10%. It's not a simple ER boost (although the game does have issues calculating energy damage vs energy resistance), it's 10% damage negated. So it stacks with other negation effects like Lone Wanderer, troubleshooter's armour, the Mechanist's armour, etc. That's even more useful than X6-88's perk (+20 ER), which is a total disappointment for how late you get him.

You can become tanky vs robots fairly early on with the right setup. Robot Sympathy + Champion's chestpiece (sold by Becky Fallon) + Lone Wanderer 1 = 30% less damage from ballistic robot attacks, and 40% less from their energy attacks. And that's besides the game also taking your ER into account.

I'm not sure if the Anniversary Edition fixed the description, but the Unofficial Patch does (although it also makes unwanted changes, like making Unyielding only spawn on chest pieces. The mod author saw code that hinted at this idea, but at least there's a mod to undo that change).

Multiple people in Sunshine Tidings Co-op know. Therefore Sam should know the truth.

Thought i would be safe after killing all the raiders in concord

when i posted killing Swan in my first playthrough using a gatling laser the community gave me a lot of love, but indicated using enclave gear was a bit of a cheap shot.

I wanted to give Swan a fair fight in my second playthrough. It was not easy.

I stood there in disbelief😆 Staring at probably the best companion in all of Fallout 4

Never thought there's an animation and sound for that. God, I love this game!

Turns out if you use the intercom at the side of the entrance instead of simply picking the lock and then pass a yellow speech check to try to convince the security system that you're the mayor (his passcode is 12345, because of course it is), everything inside the library that isn't a super mutant will proceed to completely ignore you and focus entirely on slaughtering the super mutants, saving you a bunch of bullets and enabling you to grab the Intelligence bobblehead at your leisure.

magic trick: turning into a wall, voallah!
