The topic title pretty much says everything.

Pickpocket him, click on your items to transfer them to the target. Simple as that.

With something like dynamite or plastic explosives you have to first set the timer for it to have any effect.

That is indeed a lot of fun. Especially on children... :flame:

Giving beer to Frank Horrigan before the battle makes things much easier. I can picture the scene with your character and Frank drinking beer, having a chat. Of course your beer is actually water so you can have the main advantage in the battle to come.

You can do that?

Amazingly enough I never had problems with that guy.

Spoiler

I never turned the turrets on him, but I do always recruit the Enclave Soldiers. I go to a corner on the far end of the room before provoking him so that his attacks aren't so devastating. The Enclave Soldiers handle the turrets for the most part and I hammer away at Horrigan.

Last time I played, I even still had one of the little guys left! He was out of ammo so he was punching Horrigan. What a wonderful sight to see.

All my fancy big shiny powerful weapons were for naught - I actually killed him with the .223 pistol.

-- Use item on --> Beer.

Use it 10 times to make sure his Perception hits 0.

Imagines the Vault Dweller with a Huge Syringe full of beer sneaking behind FH...

Is it possible to use Jet, beer, mentats and stuff on Horrigan so that his stats drop like hell and you can beat him without counterattacks?

I only played through the Fallout 2 MQ once, but how do you actually get the opportunity to give him the beer? If memory serves correctly he started pummelling me as soon as I got in sight.

Yeah...I believe he found you as soon as you got within 5 hexes or so of him.

Maybe if you use the

turrets, the Enclave soldiers, or both

, if you can get him to attack THEM, you can sneak up on him and use the items. Not a good idea to do it when he's firing at YOU, though. I always try to maintain a fair distance from him so that the damage he does per attack is as low as 30.
