How Do I Find followers .-. And what do I do with Sierra Mad

Post » Tue Jul 17, 2012 10:34 am

so I completed every single DLC as of now (tho if 100% complete I doubt it)

and since I found out since my difficulty setting allows my followers never to die I thought id try collecting them but only problem is I don't know who can be a potential follower .-. tho I found Raul Veronica and Ed-E (again o.0 but in the Mojave this time)

and what do I do with the Sierra Madre Chips I can get from the safe box thing in the bunker that once led to the Sierra Madre (svcks cant return after .-.)

is it possible to get all the gold bars ? I only managed to grab 4 out of the million lying on the table.
at the time I had only 20 sneak and no sneak speed boost perks (still don't)

can followers not wear clothing ? after recruiting veronica I went to the lucky 38 and gave her vera's dress and she says thanks but doesn't equip it i then tried with benny's suit and same thing so then I tried the stealth suit mrk II and she equipped it .-.

what item can be used to repair Advanced Riot Gear Armour (with the jury rigging perk) and what can be used to repair the advanced Riot Gear Helmet (and again with the Jury Rigging perk)

is there anything in the courier's path area that I guess I created launching a nuke into hopevile? (besides deathclaws and extreme radiation I went there and didn't last long Im thinking of trying again but if its just a pit of death claws i'll pass) also about that nuke is there a way to open the door with out launching the nuke ?

The companions are found in either their original hiring spot, http://www.falloutwiki.com/Fallout:_New_Vegas_companions is a list of all of them.

The Sierra Madre chips are used in the Sierra Madre vending machines, they're found everywhere in the DLC. After you've finished the DLC, the chips aren't useless. There's a vending machine in the bunker where you went to start the DLC.

It is possible to get all the gold bars with a glitch. I do not know this glitch because I refuse to use it. By getting all the gold, you're not getting the message of the DLC -> "Let go and begin again"

Companions will not wear any armour that has a lower Damage Threshold then their default armour. Veronica's robes have a DT of 8, so she will only equip armour that is greater than that in DT.

Advanced Riot Gear can be repaired with Ranger Combat Armour, and with Jury Rigging, it can be repaired with any medium armour. For some reason, the helmet is classified as heavy armour, so it can't be repaired with any helmet other than other Riot Gear helmets.

The Courier's Mile is an optional area. It gives you a challenge reward for completing it. Other then the challenge reward, there are items to be found within. What they are is a secret - you wouldn't want the surprise ruined right?

I wouldn't call it a glitch, it's an exploit if anything. After playing DM twice, I decided the third time that I'd go ahead and grab the bars, it was pretty easy.

Umm..y'know, you sound like you are struggling to find more stuff to do. You should just start over and join a different faction.

It would be worse if you could return to the Sierra Madre-that would ruin the whole theme of the DLC.

As one of the other members here said, by keeping the gold bars the Courier couldn't let go, a perfect avenue for certain RPers. Or if you need to get all the GRA weapons.

because running around hunting ghost and playing black jack would ruin the DLC ?

no because you are supposed to let go. it pretty much explains it at the end (well, it kinda dodges around it but the entire DLC is about letting go and greed, the message should be clear)

did you pay any attention at all during the DLC?

edit i found a pic that applies, http://www.nastyhobbit.org/details.php?image_id=796

Did you even listen to what was said in the final slide?

You sound like the kind of person that should have opened Sinclairs personal accounts file.

USE GOOGLE.

Playing on hardcoe your companions aren't essential, otherwise they are. It's got nothing to do with the difficulty. Look up a list of followers and you will find their attributes, quests associated and locations.

The chips can be used to purchase items from the vending machine located in the BoS bunker (where you entered the Sierra Madre). You should have picked up the holotapes for purchasable items as you went along the DLC.

It's possible to get all 37 (iirc) gold bars, they're are numerous methods, some don't involve sneak, some do. Look it up.

Followers will equip the best armor in terms of DT, if the DT of their base armor is higher than the clothing you give them, they won't equip it.

With jury rigging, the riot gear can be repaired with any medium armor (NCR, combat etc) and the helmet can be repaired with any heavy armor other riot gear helmets.

The couriers mile contains a few ammo boxes, the unique knife 'Blood Nap' and a [censored] load of irradiated deathclaws and marked men. The knife is right at the entrance, it's worth getting as it's one of the best melee weapons in the game.

USE GOOGLE!
