DLC: Companion Issue

Post » Mon Jul 25, 2011 5:26 pm

Hello Forum,

I recently bought all three of the DLC packs through steam and downloaded them. As to this I am unsure which of the three this is actually bugging out but I will post what is going on and maybe it's an easy fix that I am unable to find a fix for.

I have to travel to this cave in which there is another person from Vault 22, I convice him to bugger off so i'm able to lead this group of people to their death (lol will be shortly)

I go through and speak to Jeb or Jed or something, and I then go to say I am good to go lets roll, and he is informing me that there is only 1 more spot in the group and my friends will have to stay behind, I then turn around go outside of the cave and tell Rex and veronica to wait and then re-enter the cave to still find the same issue.

What do I need to do to be able to run through this?

Pettrox is right. In order to go on the expedition to Zion Valley, you must first fire your companions and then you may go. :)

How to I "fire" them? As rex is still part of a quest I am doing, and if I "Fire" them am I able to get them back?

Yes you will be able to get them back but for convenience I recommend that you "fire" them and tell them to meet you back up in the Lucky 38.

In short go with the "I think we should stop traveling together" option and then follow it with "I will see you at the Lucky 38 [base]" option.
When you are done with "firing" them you can proceed to Zion valley, finish Honest Hearts and go back to the Lucky 38 and get your companions again.

Yes you will. Simply initiate dialogue with them and click "It's time for us to part ways." Then you can choose whether to leave them at the Lucky 38 or the places where you found them.

I can only think of two companion quests where its not-possible [or at least not a good idea] to fire those particular companions during their side-quest due to there being a time-line and a fight.
The rest of the companions you can choose to fire at any given time during their quest. You just need to make sure that when you continue on with the quest you have your companion with you.
