So I am starting Mass Fusion and I want to betray the Institute and inform the Brotherhood. Problem is, the quest marker is pointing me to Proctor Ingram, who is standing next to Captain Kells and every time I try to talk to her, Kells svcks me into the conversation for Tactical Thinking. I am trying to NOT do Tactical Thinking because I don't want to attack the Railroad. I have tried waiting for various amounts of time but neither Ingram nor Kells leaves the command deck, so I'm stuck. Any ideas?

Nevermind. I managed to get close enough to talk to her using a stealth boy, but she just says that Kells wants to speak with me and I can't initiate the Mass Fusion conversation, so the point is moot.

save the game

get banished by the institute

desdemona might tell you to ask for help from preston garvey , if it doesn't then just do the brootherhood questline u won't miss anything

off topic - if u are brootherhood why are u protecting the railroad , if the synths escape then that goes directly against what the BoS are there for ( wipe out synths + institute )

He might want to go for the Minuteman ending but want to do the mass fusion quest first.

I was trying to hold off on alienating any of the factions as long as possible. I did end up finishing with the Minutemen ending.


And for the record, I'm a she, not a he.
