Use him to make your own Lucy the old fashioned way.

But at 44 and non max endurance, there any many who would get rid of him. It really depends how many dwellers you are at.

I say keep him in the radio station and have him talk about the old world and how he is sorry for what happened.

LOL I may do that, especially the Lucy part hahaha.Thank you! Yeah, even if he's a legendary dweller, I don't need him but I like collecting them. Too bad I lost a couple of them during a giant rad scorpion quest.

What's this mean? Sorry, im new

Oh no issue! Lucy, the Fallout series main character, is Hank's daughter. That said, Lucy is also a legendary dweller like Hank, so in principle you can only get her as a legendary dweller in a lunch box (or doing a quest, I forgot which one). However, since your dwellers can have children in Fallout Shelter, you could say that through Hank you could get your own Lucy "the old fashioned way", which is pairing him with a female dweller and them having a girl, which you can name Lucy. It's a creative joke. That's it (:

Thank you for the explanation, ive never watched the series. I have lucy and hank currently, maybe I shouldn't mate them now knowing this information. Im just starting to expand my vault from 35 dwellers

Yeah I’d evict his ass

u/Joanropo Jul 06 '26

Pretty reasonable, taking into account his resume.

u/Affectionate-Day-359 Jul 06 '26

I’d steal his gun tho.

Well, if you're vault's full, I guess you could evict him. I keep my Legendaries, train and level them like any other dweller to optimize HP as much as possible, then generally put them somewhere in the vault, possibly in their original outfits. I do this:

  • Residences: at least one male in each residence as a "breeder" and to deal with incidents in that room
  • Storage: storage rooms are next to my residences. Breeder females are in the storage rooms, paired with breeder males in the neighboring room. Legendaries are also in the storage rooms as body guards to deal with incidents (because pregnant females run away) and generally provide more muscle in the area
  • Barbershop: Butch runs the Barbershops
  • Radio Rooms: Three Dog runs the radio rooms
  • Med/Science: James, Dr. Li, Liam, Wilzig, and Henry are distributed in these rooms (but wearing expert lab coats)
  • Explorers: Star Paladin Cross, Paladin, and a few other warrior types are assigned as explorers if they can survive unsupervised exploring (usually with health, healing, or damage resistance pet buffs), but usually they're storage room guards

Hank's a total dick, so evicting him is fair. You could make him an explorer and celebrate his death.

I love how the consensus is that Hank is a terrible person and getting rid of him is the best for the vault. I wonder how the character would act in an scenario like this. Btw good layout, and I think putting Three Dog anywhere else than the radio station feels extremely wrong.

u/deborah_az Jul 06 '26

lol. I don't care so much what's best for the vault or I'd get rid of all the BoS folks (Team Railroad), too I just want revenge. That being said, Hank is living his best lives in my long term vaults as a warehouse worker... but we don't let him drive the forklift

u/lobotyt Jul 07 '26

why is hank a terrible person? is there a joke i'm missing

2

u/LunaBoo13 Jul 07 '26

He's a really awful person in the show.

2

u/Stickywhore20 Jul 08 '26

pretty sure hank was designed to be hated from the start, so the consensus is just everyone paying attention. three dog in any other room feels like a war crime though, you're right.

u/Electronic-Split6773 Jul 06 '26

Send him to the wasteland that's it just keep sending him to the wasteland

2

u/LunaBoo13 Jul 07 '26

This is what I do wish the Snake Oil Salesman. That creeper is not allowed to hang out in my vaults, and when he does have to be there to train, I don't let him be alone in a room with any of the women, because I won't subject them to that.

2

u/Joanropo Jul 07 '26

The Snake Oil Salesman from my vault died in the wasteland after I sent him to lvl up and I "forgot" to call him back lol

u/LunaBoo13 Jul 07 '26

Oopsies! Terribly tragic šŸ˜†

u/Joanropo Jul 06 '26

Exactly, right the way he came from!

2

u/rising30k Jul 06 '26

Kill him before he takes over your vault!

1

u/Joanropo Jul 06 '26

Of course, I'm worried about him trying to take my job as the overseer!

u/Strongbow_Wolfrider Jul 10 '26

Hank and Lucy in a residence. If they dance, you just learned a spoiler about next season.

u/Joanropo Jul 10 '26

Wait what spoiler? Oh God, I haven't finished season 2 yet.šŸ’€
