I would love an Enclave DLC. Where it's possible to get the Brotherhood and Enclave to sign a truce, or even a peace treaty.

because the enclave's philosophy is to kill everyone but the biologically pure humans and the brotherhood is already corrupted in this fashion, there can be no truce.

Where you can challenge Maxson and become the elder as originally planned.
They may see you as pure, considering you're from a vault.

I still maintain this is an awful idea. The brotherhood's mantra of securing technology will also get in the way, if you think the lone wanderer can make the brotherhood abandon this goal, and the goal of helping the people of the wasteland, to work with the enclave, you are sorely mistaken.

The lone wanderer was born outside the vault.
The sole survivor was born outside the vault, but before the bombs dropped.
And the Brotherhood wants mainly pre-war tech.
Plus, their goals are fairly similar.

i meant the sole survivor, but anyways, the brotherhood wants tech, the idea of pre war is only a handy term to describe lost knowledge, but anyways the brotherhood does NOT have similar goals to the enclave, genocide of all "muties" has not and never had been one of their pillars. Their relationship is about as hostile as the institute.

They want kill mutants
The brotherhood hates mutants and treats them as third-class citizens

Oh i see the green represents global warming and how its killing nature and the red represents the unwavering threat communism taking over our society

nah, the picture is a black guy smoking pot while on lsd, I call it "Dindu Nuthins"

Nice to know I wasn't the only one.

Get in the power armor and he likes it, so it evens out.

Take any companion that his hostile to brotherhood to any brotherhood outpost. The Corser is best. Let him tank knights. Step behind knight and pop the core. Let Corser do work. Free armor and frame.

or just quicksave and pickpocket it.

Then you get all the armor pieces that would otherwise be blown off when the fusion core detonates.

Never had that happen to me. Done it a few times and the fusion core detonation doesn't seem to do much, if any, damage to the armor, or even the guy wearing it. Then again, those instances involved letting someone who was technically friendly to me be slaughtered by someone else.

Fusion cores have the same detonation power as a nuke mine. Hence the perk that allows you to eject then at enemies with devastating effects. If you are playing on normal or above it will always destroy the bottom part of t60 armour, removing the legs from the frame. While not harming thr person in them

Haven't played on less than normal, and it hasn't destroyed the legs for me yet. Kinda odd.

If you are doing it during combat and they are mobile and running they may escape the blast zone. I did it without aggroing them first (because you can shoot it out without making them hostile) and it always removes the two legs and places them with zero health in the person wearing them inventory, the damage output of the fusion core is almost double what it takes to destroy the legs completely if they're standing right by it.

That would explain it. Still, I wouldn't worry about the legs of a T-60 set. You can get a fucktillion of those later on during a certain mission, and just hunting those guard posts/patrols down and waiting on a knight to fuck himself.

Yeah I just wanted a few dozen sets sitting around, I have quite a few but I'm still missing an X Series right arm for my personal set.

The only place I've ever found a full set of that is in the....Tower 13 I think it was called. Up on the top guarded by some robots. Everywhere else is always missing something. Usually a right arm.

Supposedly the chances of finding pieces of an X Series start at around level 25 and go up as you level up, I am over level 50 and am still finding sets full of t45 pieces. Maybe I'm just getting bad luck rolls this playthrough

You probably did the same thing I did on my first play through and went exploring. If you go into a cell that has an armor spawn, it spawns relevant to your level and then stays that way. It doesn't respawn. So I ended up with a lot of T-45 my first time.

I also see a lot of people recommending the high 30s for X type spawns. Even though 25 is possible, the chance is super low.

I definitely entered some cells and spawned low level armor early, but I also definitely didn't enter some cells until I was in the fifties and still got pretty low level armor. Stupidly, instead of just looking up how the spawn system works I left some of the armor alone and kept coming back later to see if it respond with better armor. Oh well.

Yeah I could get if he was doing this to get the small wood to start the fire with. Normally you have to hold it by hand to get the small pieces so it does hav some merit there.
