Just wanted to say how fun the Jamaica Plain mission was! I loved it. I can imagine some people being a bit pissed off with it, but I thought it was great!

In the true spirit of Fallout.

Yeah it was great.

I liked that one along with Super Duper Mart and Museum of Witchcraft. Both of these had a very tense feeling.

Yeah the museum was well done!

museum of witchcraft is probably one of the best missions I've played so far.

I loved the Jamaica Plains missions, Cait didn't approve of its ending though!

Surely I'm not the only one that disarmed all those traps? Some precious resources there!

Jamaica Plain... a place my dog got me killed 3 times...

I was halfway through the tripwires when Curie went "Oh! I know where you're wanting to go! Let me show you the way, my little paté of a silly gooses' liver!"

The quest was entertaining, but poorly written because it includes our of character knowledge in the holotape.

Not sure why you and the gif maker had so much fuss... toss a nade at the corridor, job done

who gives you this mission? I was going to just go there and get the resources, I didn't know there was a mission involved... I really haven't gone that far south yet. I'm trying to find all locations to the north before heading south. I'm at almost 50 hours in, at level 33, and I've only completed like 2 story missions so far.

when you get to Jamaica Plain, you find a body of the Mayor, who has a note and a key on him , in the Church I believe, or outside it. Reading the note gives you the quest (I think, it's been a while since I did it)

It's a random miscellaneous quest I think. Not sure where I picked it up from.

BTW I'm 80hrs in at level 37 and haven't even been to Diamond City yet so haven't even really started the main campaign!

No I don't think so. I had the quest in my logs way before I'd ever ventured that far south.

There's a note on the body of a dead named NPC that you find in a building near the CIT. That's what clues me into the quest.

Lol I made a quick save right before the trap and try to disarm it and then the dog run straight into the trap and kill me. also it's more than once the dog like to run in front of me when I stop and try to defuse a trap.

Preston found it hilarious...hahahah. it was a really fun place.

Jamaica Plain for me was a Clearing the Way quest for one of my settlements. And I found the secret passage in.
Was a bit disappointing that the stuff in the "treasure stash" wasn't worth more than the usual junk you find laying around though. Would have thought those vases might be worth say 100 caps each.
Oh and I didn't find the guy in the church with the note/key until after I'd set up the settlement... but I did find a box in that church bell tower with 4 fusion cores

There's a number of different ways to activate the quest. Several bodies have notes regarding it and then scattered about the Commonwealth are prewar flyers you can pick up and activate it. And maybe some NPCs mention it as well.

I might have missed something important, but I thought it was just ok. Like, a bit better than those infinitely repeating quests. I heard about the place from a guard and listened to all the holotapes I found when I got there. My favorite so far was the polymer labs one. The reward is also one of the best I've ever gotten.

I stumbled across it whilst randomly exploring, interesting little side quest. As for the Museum of Witchcraft - will head back when I've levelled up a little more! Very atmospheric though (a little scary as well)! Overall I've been really impressed with alot of the locations I've come across.

You can find out about the tourist trap locations from an informational terminal in the Boston Airport, though I think I found the Jamaica Plains brochure in a random magazine rack somewhere north.
