Thanks for watching! Enjoy the game. - Hry
prestons perk should be to stop giving you missions every 5 seconds
strongly agree
I've found a way to minimalize this problem to an extent,tell him you finished the quest,when he gets to the part ''something has come up'' you just run away and the quest finishes without triggering another one
i avoid him so he is not a trouble
it should be every 0.5 seconds
Funny thing is in my game he's completely stopped giving me quests, and unfortunately I've basically run out of ways to earn xp.

*above me is Preston just hovering in mid air*
"ANOTHER SETTLEMENT NEEDS YOUR *HELP* "
Imagine this: you wake up in the middle of the night, paralysed. As your eyes adjust to the darkness, you notice a humanoid figure standing in one of the corners of the room. It sprints forward, now at the foot of your bed, adjusting itself to get its face closer to yours, and the thing it says raises all the hairs on your body: “another settlement needs your help”, then suddenly disappearing.
STEPHEN KING'S 'GARVEY'
Preston's drinking from the river
Of lead
Completely pure water
Companion Tip:
Codsworth has a Damage Buff and you can modify him to be any robot you want with the Automotron DLC
yes you can effectively turn him into a world destroying sentry bot with a British accent
which makes him the most powerful companion with a shit perk.
codsworth is missing in the commonwealth. the vip system doesn't list him and he isn't in sancturary
give him ironsides hat and you're good to go
I turned him into a sentry and curie into an assaultron
TBH Sentry bot is really good outdoors but overall I think Assaultron is the most powerful. It not only has powerful ranged option, but an Unholly Close Combat Potential and I find it hillariously terryfying hoing arround with Feminine looking deathmachine with Codsworth's voice :D
deacon Is a trip, he got in my powerarmor while I hacked a terminal, then he even turned the spot light on. once I got my PA back he had it all busted. One time he snagged a legendary weapon as I was grabbing it.
XD
Get a mod that turns no kill for essential and companions off and then KILL HIM
You can kill deacon without mods
Happened to me with Nick before with my t60 and he got an arm destroyed
Mine is worse. I gave Nick my T-60 PA, after finishing the mission where we have to walk through Kellog's memory. After finishing it, i realized that the PA is set to owned. Which was sad ;-;
Bethesda is kinkshaming me for not letting me romance the robo detective.
+xFireFlyx3 Aaaaw I really wanted to do that! 10/10 would romance.
Akin Khoo Romance doesn't have to rely on sexual intercourse. ;)
+xFireFlyx3 You and me buddy. Platonic romance would had been an amazing.
+xFireFlyx3 I know what you mean, I totes wanted Valentines Synth Wienie.
+Akin Khoo Big Purple Stap-on.
I cheated on piper with that singer in the bar below goodneighbor right in front of her face and she hated it.
oh her lol
+grilled Imagine that...
+grilled i did that too. very funny
Yeah I sent her away for that 😂
she's a synth, did you know that
“When you reach max affinity you learn that he’s a human.”
I thought he was a vertibird
I thought he was a Yao Guay
I thought he was a radiation barrel
I thought he was a tato
@@audreyandmary5440 no he's glowing one
Curie is by far my favorite companion.She never complains about anything,see's the world with adorable wonder and says the cutest things when you're out adventuring with her.
dogmeat is my fav, he dose not judge you :D
LOL me to!
Lol exactly!
I like him because I can eat people and he still loves me
+OmegagamingDK Samee
+OmegagamingDK he is like your father in fallout 3
I'm romancing Piper at the moment. However, I just recruited Curie and I'm falling for that accent :p
+Daggerfall40 Definitively French accent :D
So if I want a perk I have to fuck someone
+Cordale beebe
No. This guy doesn't know what he's talking about. You don't have to romance any companion to get their perk. You just have to reach max affinity with them. Romance is an option with many of the companions though, and gives you the 'Lover's Embrace' buff if they're nearby when you sleep, whether you're traveling with them or not.
+Cordale beebe Just like real life
+Daggerfall40 Same here, i believe i jumped the gun when i romanced piper first.
1:58 (laughs in Automatron DLC)
Yap he can have guns now
I turned codsworth into a sentry
@@sundowner9726 no turn him into LEGSWORTH
@@Voltboy1449 it will be done
Piper for her dedication and realistic views, cait for her sad success story, Preston for his minutemen connection and his good views and danse for his dad self realisation and self actualisation.
*sad not dad
@Asher ward he is The same person you moron
Sloppy work, here's some missed notes
- Don't need to romance them for their perks
-Codsworth and Danse like when you mod armour or weapons
-Strong dislikes power armour not piper
-You can make human follows change outfits by making them equip new ones
-Preston can be lost as a follower via glitch if you fly to the blimp before talking the castle back
-Followers can have their carrying capacity increased by entering power armour
-Dances unobtainable pre equipped armour counts to his weight limit, so equipping over will cost you
-Having him as a companion post getting his perk causes brotherhood hostility until you part ways again.
- Strong gives you meat
- Siri gives you stim packs
- Decon randomly changes outfits
That's just off the top of my head from my play through ,oh and the synth detective like you being the silver shroud and is all round savage af
Nick*, or more sarcastically "the great clockwork dick"
+TheOtakuWolf
Siri is my personal favorite companion. I really like it when she *actually* understands what I'm saying, and I love her primary weapon: never actually being useful!
+Dan Author 😂😂
Considering how well done the video is otherwise, calling it "sloppy work" is a bit rude...
Yea it was a bit mean, production quality was right up their but it was sloppy missing details that are readily available. It seams to be a common theme, I still personal like their videos it's just you can't 100% trust them.
At the end of the day they don't owe anyone anything though, just thought it was a nifty line to put in before covering the gaps. Sounds like something nick valentine would say
Danse and MacCready are life tbh. They're like my only companions that don't get absolutely rekt 10 seconds into battle lmao
True but also strong is good because he is super mutant
+The_Canadian_Gamer Strong is totally cool yeah. My only problem with him is his disliking for lockpicking, I do it so much lmao
+Syn Drake oh sorry I didn't than yeah your right
The Murder Gamer sounds fuckin worth it.
Yessssss. They are my bae XD
Dogmeat for life. Dogmeat is the best conpanion
Dogs are the best people.
+The Mudpit people suck
Marshall Wilson dog meat is a synth
Jackson Marshuetz Nu hun
He has more intelligents than most of the campanions
I love the mod to have Dogmeat along with other companions. This was a cut feature but intended, similar to previous games, as other followers were comment on Dogmeat's presence
I like dogs, and the idea of traveling with him, but he´s an absolute menace! Trying to sneak with him around is worthless, he just seeks out trouble and brings it back to me!
@@olenilsen4660 forget stealth, just use bigger guns
You don't need to romance any of them to get the perk, you just need to be at the top level affinity.
Is it faster to romance them?
@@efrenvaladez6207Well you can only romance them when reaching highest level affinity, so it makes no difference whether you romance or don’t, you will still get the perk.
@@efrenvaladez6207 Romancing gives the lover´s embrace though, so I would absolutely do it when you get the chance.
"you can romance multiple companions" but you should feel bad about it.
+wew lad I'll never cheat on Cait
+buneter I have Cait and piper in the same settlement both romanced never know who I'm sleeping with sometimes
+wew lad Hell I romance 'em, get the perk and tell 'em to hit the road. I got a new companion to romance, bitch.
+Akin Khoo wait really?
+Akin Khoo 😎

Skyrim: *everyone's a follower! The priests, The beggars, the mercs! The rabid dog you bought, EVERYONE!*
Fallout 4: alright let's tone it down.....like %85....hows 13 sound?
Darkstrides it’s much better like this though because the companions actually have depth and proper lore to them.
@@actioncookiez3564 I agree. I prefer fewer companions with more depth than many companions with little depth.
skyrim be like: ey do me this small favour and I'll be willing to follow you to the depths of Oblivion and beyond.

Piper's so quirky! It's adorable!
Popular companions:
Nick
Piper
Curie
Danse
DAMN WHY ARE THEY SO POPULAR? hancock needs more love ;-;
True
But you forgot about cait and Mac cready because they can steal
+Gαмєя Gιяℓ PREACH IT
Hancock is like my 4th favorite
Nick 😍
piper is really pissed at me and i cannot go to sanctuary because she has my junk jet an my xo1 power armour.
send help plz
Holy shit lol.
+Berlingot im on ps4 i cannot change if they die.
i could try to pickpocket her and take the armour pieces and the junk jet
I think when they hate you you're able to kill them (but don't quote me on that)
I think you can incopasitate them
Shit lets do it
Who here gave MacCready a flame thrower for shits and giggles?
Me.
Who doesn't
ZeddtheVHSotaku I gave Curie one.
All of my companions have one especially MacCready
Maccready picks up every fucking explosive weapon before I could even get them, he didn't even need that flamethrower
I got on the prydwen, went to the armory and stole every fucking thing I could, then fast traveled to sanctuary. The brotherhood was no longer my ally because I robbed them like it was no tomorrow, so when Danse saw me, he opened fire. Needless to say, I had to sweep up his ashes after that fight
Really? I broke into the armory, went into sneak mode, and stole everything and then just sold all of the useless stuff back to them and they didn't seem to notice or care.
Same. I never got danse back and im still looking for a mod to spawn companions in.
Ijustwant2play I don't like to from the brotherhood because they were how finished the game
ReezyBeBreezy hahahaa
ReezyBeBreezy I stole a exo 1 helmet
piper didn't dislike when i go in my power armor? O.o
Same here. Even ordered her to go into one myself.
+TheRibbonRed Piper is neutral on power armor. Danse likes it but Strong Doesn't.
Sunny Smiles but he said in the video she disliked it
+OmegagamingDK must've mistaken with Strong. Probably.

I just wish you could romance Nick Valentine 🙃
He’s over a century old though
what if you could romance strong,STRONG wants to smach something ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
@@dmitriblyat8237 mood
@@jamesr.2017 we are too in the game 😂
It would make sense because he has the mind of a prewar cop
You forgot to mention that sparing Danse will make you an enemy of the Brotherhood whenever you have him with you as a companion.
If we become an enemy of the BoS even tho we spared danse will he be locked out of being romanceable?
@@SoySilent Only if you completely destroy the BoS, will Danse be locked out from being your companion.
@@BBBHuey thanks, i just saw that your original comment was posted 7 years ago lol
I love Curie! Her voice and personality is addorable! She's also quite beautiful in her synth body ;)
+ayy lmao ikr? she is just so sweet and lovely. even in her "dislike and hated" comments about leaving when you do things that she doesn't like, she's just so sweet! i wonder if her body is 100% human... you know...we could teach her how do humans... reproduce... and "it is of course, for science" ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
+4kzero having sex?
+4kzero If you successfully romance her she does have a line about conducting "nocturnal experiments".
ayy lmao but its your sons dna
Don't fall for it the accent is good at first but then I wanted to punch her in the face
Surely there should be some kind of milk of human kindness mission for strong?
lel
I don't know
IVE BEEN SO PISSED LATELY! Been searching for like 3 weeks now and no luck, like I have like 500+ Empty Milk Bottles But no Normal Milk! Btw "Milk Of Human Kindness" is actually Normal Milk, Just strong doesn't know what he's talking about lol
+Fariko Vanish IKR?! Come on bethesda get yer shit together.
+Matt Saville Milk huh? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
My favorite companion is Hancock
Me too. But I also like MacCready and X6
TKupz z if you hang around Deacon a lot you'll find out how buggy the fuck is. I gave him a chef hat and he was cooking food food at sanctuary but his model had bugged to make him look fat and he had average sized hands so I thought some baby hands chef showed up at sanctuary.
JoeMcBob
lmaoooo that's comedy
Hancock ftw
SOCIALSINNER I can’t get Hancock because I can’t start The Big Dig quest. Bobbi never answers the door that she’s behind.
Only companion i wanted was Glory. She seemed so bad assed...
+AnarchiousGaming they should make a DLC in which they retcon her part in the railroad plotline and then also make her a companion and then, finally, let me make out with her. not my character. me.
Ikr one of the main reasons I joined the Railroad
+Kate Sharpenter LOL
I think Desdemona could be a cool companion too
Synth sympathizers.... *spits in Brotherhood
MacCready is hilarious, "Commonwealth savings bank of MacCready, is open for business" I lost it.
MacReady's perk is the best by far. It gives a 95% head shot no matter the range. Even though the perk reads +20% chance at a head shot, that isn't how it works. All other body parts may be 5% or less but head shot is still 95%. I'm sure Bethesda is gonna nerf that in an upcoming patch because it's way OP.
You don't need to romance them for perks.
I never romanced Preston, and got the perk from him when I put artillery on the castle. Glad to hear it's the same for the others. Romancing characters makes me uncomfortable lol.
Yeah, but I romance the fuck out of Piper and Hancock depending on whether I'm male or female that run.
Agreed - They will idolize your character and you just have to make them your best friends and they will give you the perk.
My fav compaian is dog meat because he's cute as all hell
STRONG: why food is your companion, food are supposed to be eaten and dog is food.
too bad hes a synth
that answers how he can sneeze 50 times without stopping
Romanced Garvey, he called me bae so I dumped him at the castle.
During sex "Another settlement needs our help..."
That moment when Preston yells out "SETLEMENT!!!" instead of your name while in bed.
"OH, YES! SETTLEMENT!!!" I'm dead!
babe...
Dogmeat: No ranged attacks, otherwise awesome.
Piper: Annoying. And that smile is just too creepy.
Deacon: Annoying.
Hancock: One of the least annoying and most sympathetic companions.
Curie: Pleasant voice and adorably naive commentary.
Strong: I refuse to associate with idiots. I pelt him with molotovs every time I see him.
Cait: The most compatible.
Nick: Least annoying so far.
Preston: Haven't tested him. He got his panties in a twist because of the institute massacre, so maybe next playthrough.
X6-88: Boring.
Danse: Not feeling it. Next.
Codsworth: Haven't tested him yet.
MacCready: Only just hired him. Too early to tell.
Oh dont worry theres a channel named Iseeyou and it has a creepy smiling piper for a channel icon
You can still side with Bobbi and get Hancock as a companion. He even kind of respects that you sided with her, but you got to go kill her for him.
MacCready is my fav because he was such a lil shit in fallout 3, I'm glad he has to toughen up in the real wasteland 🤣🤣
When I met codsworth i picked my name to be “Wayne” I was so suprised for him to say my name.
Yeah he actually called me Vic, which was awesome!
Codsworth and Piper are my favorite companions. Especially Piper, her voice actor really put in some work.
Nick is also one of my favorites
The only couple of reasons why Hancock is my fav companion is because 1:His backstory, 2:His smile (srsly it makes him look like a puppy in my opinion),3: He's 90% laid-back. I wanted to kill Danse when I swapped him and Hancock as companions when he called Senpai a 'freak'
Enderlox FanGirl yeah fuck Danse
Well those aren't couple of reasons are they?
Hancock bothers me because he doesn’t have a nose, it’s kind of disturbing
Great video, thanks for taking time too share.
Cait is my favorite, useful skills, lovely voice.
I sided with the Minutemen. Anyone else.
Minutemen probably best ending if you want an overall kind and generous sort of ending
I have a Minuteman problem. I need some sort of support group. I've spent weeks playing and haven't even found Nick Valentine yet, because I'm constantly making sure my 20 settlements are thriving, growing, and trouble free... No need to romance Preston though. He thinks I'm a living God.
i sided with the institute
I have a settlement in need of your help I'll mark it on your....... Oh he's gone to the brotherhood ehh not again
No. Not me. I didn't because Preston Garvey says "Another Settlement Needs Your Help" all the time. It's annoying. Super annoying.
Nick, Handcock, and Dogmeat are my faves
What about my me!!! What about all the settlements!!!! I'll mark them all on your map!!!!!!!!
Preston Garvey your a decent companion. (JK)
Pybro
handcock xD
Preston Garvey great guy but shitty companion
And strong
I love the companions in fallout 4, remember Serana from Skyrim Dawngaurd Dlc? How she was so different from the other companions? She was such a great character. And that's what I feel every companion (except dogmeat) is so great, each one has the depth and conversational interests like Serana, my favorite companion in any bethesda game. If the companion system wasn't in fallout 4 it wouldn't be the same.
Raul, Raul is my fav companion...Don't know him?Here, I'll mark it on your map.
Raul Tejada? Oh I know him, dudes strange. Keeps a toolbox conveniently placed behind a rock
Off course I know Raul. He went trough so much radiation because of me, the next time he change his name it should be Jason Bright :) :) :)
My top five companions:
1. MacCready (Pretty chill personality and awesome perk with high perception; that, and his backstory made me rather compassionate toward him.)
2. Piper (I pretty much liked her the moment I met her and if you're nice like myself when I played the game, she's pretty easy to romance.)
3. Dogmeat (Loves you unconditionally and doesn't negate the Lone Wanderer perk. 'Nuff said.)
4. Danse (Pretty OP if you give him maxed out X-01 armor and his T-60d Power Armor is pretty badass, too.)
5. Preston (As annoying as he is, his perk is pretty damn useful if you use high power weapons and is EASY to max out his affinity if you take him with you in the Minutemen radiant quests.)
Honorable Mentions: X6-88, Curie and Cait. That's it.
I'm trying to get all the companion perks. looks like I cant get danse, I was close, he left me at the sentinel site, then BOS started blind betrayal,i even saved him, no affinity. when I try to make him a companion again BOS is hostile towards me.
Strong and Curie are my favourites.
You even slightly like x6, but don't mention codsworth? Dude.
Where the heck is Nick
Fawkes will always be the best
You can still get Hancock as a companion even if you don't side with him in "The Dig" but he'll ask you to do a personal mission first before he'll join you
Dog meat + maxed out lone wanderer - that's a major key
Valinte is my fav. Hes good for carrying junk has a lotta healt and can take out enemies on his own and also good for distection so that I dont get hit by a bullet
I know this is old and a weird thing to add, but you can change Valentines outfit, if you take the outfit he has in his inventory and make him equip it (Though it is the same outfit for you) It actually restores one of his hands (Obv the robot skeleton one) to a normal synth hand.
I am playing Fallout 4 in 2023 and man...Preston is so suffocating. He judge me, he boss me around and he give me missions all the day. May map looks like a christmas three with a thousand of locations he want me to go.
Try having Danse with you as a companion, then switching him out for Nick and vice versa, the interaction between them is hilarious!
I literally stopped playing fallout because me and curie is in a relationship and im afraid of commitment
Did this happen before or after she got her new body?
@@doppelminds1040 And you know this how?
read your comment and now I am sad :( play the game anyways though
Very Helpful.
Thank you.
Note: if you go for the minutemen ending , then 3 out of the 4 faction specific companions will stay around, as that endings only requires destroying the institute, thid means youll only miss out on x8-66 eveb if you maxed out his affinity
STRONG FOR LIFE
"If this useful stuff, would not be left by other humans."
(Especially not for 200 years.) Probably the truest thing said by any character in the game.
My fav is cate because she is a savage
Yeah.
Me and her kinda....
My favorite is Curie, i thinknshe has the best bonuses and stuff
When i first saw nick light one up for the first time .. I thought he was a badass character. It suited him so well
You can still have Hancock as a companion even if you side with bobbi, but you have to kill her (you can also take her ~500 caps)
Ony thing I'm always thinking about while watching Fallout videos is: Why does everyone keep saying Eddie "Winters"? Winter, his name is Winter. No "s" here...
Hancock is my favorite, his perk is cool, also because i grabbed the perk that you can be healed in irradiated water.
Thanks this is really helpful
8:17 another settlement needs your help
I feel like an asshole for killing Danse, like I never wanted to but I didn't see a way out
+CyborgCMorg You sould've just refused, If you have high charisma.
N Lin Lol i'm like around lvl 9 or 10 also have lady killer perk.
+CyborgCMorg after i became enemies with the brotherhood, and teleported to sanctuary where I had told danse to wait and he just started shooting me lol
+CyborgCMorg I thought I would too, but then i remembered that I joined the brotherhood because of my hate for synths, and the fact that they can be mistaken for humans is more of a threat than they are a hope for mankind. Letting Danse live would have been a compromise, and would have been railroad behavior. If i was gonna be in the brotherhood, i had to go all they way
Just drink tons of alcohol when doing the mission, everything will go as planned, since your charisma will get so high
Piper loves it when I get in power armor one time I found a power armor suit and right when I went back to red rocket where all my suits are I reached the max level of affinity
Nick Valentine is a great companion and his quest is brilliant
I thought deacon was a synth not a human?
Andrew Sinclair
he lied to you m8
Andrew Sinclair no Sturgis is a synth
Yesn't
??? Is this still up to date? I've never seen Piper complain about power armor usage before.
Strong hates power armour not piper, also meacready doesn't have a son, Danes doesn't get X-01 power armour, you HAVE to kill all the raiders in the combat zone, strong's a dick, and you don't have to marry any of them to get they're perks. This guy is kind of an idiot, try not to listen to Half the crap he said.
Courier 9712 Macready does have a son actually, do his companion quest to find out. If you want to know more, spoiler below.
Spoiler: Macreadys son has a disease so you must find the cure at Med-Tek during Macreadys 'long road ahead' mission.
Its strong not Piper(i know because i have her as a companion)
Courier 9712 MacCready has a son, danse does wear x01 so he was kind of right
If you have "Automatron", Ada shoots straight to the top of the list, or any robot companion you make. With a little work, Ada can be packing a regeneration device to keep your health up while you're in her proximity and dual gatling lasers to shred everything in sight! On top of that, she's entirely neutral, so you don't have to worry about saying or doing the wrong thing. Plus, that DLC will also let you customize Curie and Codsworth's robot bodies, making them into whatever you really want them to be offensively, defensively, or in regards to their utility, (like resistance or healing modules.) Once you start building robots, it's hard to look at the human companions again. They'll have more to say and react to, but the robot companions will f%^&iing stomp everything in their way if you build them out right.
Basically don't overdose on chems
cait's insane. i like that
Hot irish raider with a heart of gold
Hancock is my favourite of the companions
I've gotten maximum affinity with Piper multiple times and she has never disliked it or hated it when I entered power armor.
You can also acquire Piper as a companion after Reunions when you head back to Diamond City to talk to her with Nick. However she will bug you like Preston does about the Castle whenever you try to talk to her so it's best to just get the interview out of the way.
Just imagine having a romanced Hancock and he sees you flirting with somebody else then him
*Loud shotgun loading in the backround*
Can you get all the companion perks in one play through?
Yes you have to make sure to get the faction related companions (Deacon, Danse, X6-88) and get their perks before any story discussions are made
+Sir Goop dah shit
+Franco Gonzalez You can keep X6-88 even after you finish the main story, though i forgot to finish the required quest and now it's too late.
This is probably a stupid question but can you only romance ONE companion?
Torus Brusk
i got two companions romanced, no problem.
I love how Bethesda included variety of companions that can be available to defend the player during the adventures on the Commonwealth and also the DLCS like Nuka World, Automatron and Far Harbor.
I also love how each of every companion contacts each perk after maxing affinity with them. MacCready has the best companion perk out of all of the companion perks because his perk allows the player to get +20 headshots in VATS and accuracy.
The best companion in my IMO is Nick Valentine because he has the best writing out of all of the characters in Fallout 4, he is also a relatable companion and plays a huge role in the main story (also the Far Harbor DLC).
I killed X6 during the Bunker Hill quest and it made going to the Institute really weird. Everyone kept saying that X6 was complimenting me for my combat abilities and kept talking about how he talked about me and I kept thinking ‘I put three railroad spikes in his head, I don’t think he can compliment me anymore’. It also made me laugh when the notification that ‘X6 is available as a companion’ came up.
On the bright side I saved the four synths that needed help!
Does companion damage with their default weapon scale up with level? Or do you have to equip them with a good weapon and ammo?
they level with you
nick gets stuck at 99
You don't HAVE to romance them
I want that X1 power armor can I get it without being gay with Danse?
You have a high chance of finding its pieces whenever you would encounter power armor in the world (not those belonging to the brotherhood) but you need to be high level
My preferd companion is Curie. I'm really fond of her credulity and being always in a state of surprise.
you can find out early in the game that danse is a sinth if you kill him (and loot him) before he becomes your companion
a bit misleading, you do not have to romance anyo anyone to get their perk. you can keep things professional and still reach max affinity
My railroad character is a lesbian that has Piper as her girlfriend
IT's worth noting that hancock actually will become your follower even if you help bonnie. He comes up to you in goodneighbor and talks about how he wants to get back in touch with the grungier parts of life. and he signs up.
Let's just admit we all tried to make them inspect the bed and get straight-up denied at least once.
I'm very upset that I can't romance Nick :( he's my favorite companion!
I don't know is just for me but every time i send Curie to a settlement she just start running to vault 81
I have no clue where she is. She's not in my main settlement, nor in Vault 81. She gives no fucks that I want her perk
Lets hope that bethesda fix those bugs
+Igor D I gave up on Bethesda fixing stuff. I was hoping for a way to track companions. Dunno how they didn't think of that
When you get the copy of Nick's coat it can have balistic weave put on it. It can be then equipped to Nick.
I love MacCready, because as soon as I see these nice, red letters "E) Steal" I know I can't resist...
I maxed him out veeeery quickly
Piper is my constant companion, she is the most effective one, and the best looking ;)
She is adorable. She is the only one who has a pet name for you. Blue? I just smile whenever she calls me blue
Deacon is my favourite by far
You don't have to romance any companions to get their perks. You can choose to be 'best friends'. You can also arm and armor most of them, making them hardier and dealing more damage in combat. If you provide a better weapon you need to provide ammo as they will use it up.
The difficulty I find with companions is that I started my first game with the Automaton DLC installed, and now I can't justify taking anyone but Ada with me since I started upgrading her. So my progression was Dogmeat - then Preston, then Ada. I hired Macready but sent him off to a settlement. Made friends with Piper but I leave her at her paper. Poor Codsworth never got to leave Sanctuary. Haven't gotten to the point of acquiring any others as companions yet.
