Veronica lost my weapon?

Post » Thu Dec 15, 2011 4:57 pm

Basically as the topic title/description says. I gave Veronica a fully modified Laser Rifle and now when I ask her to use ranged she gets out a 10mm pistol! I checked her inventory: the dress I gave her to make her happy is still there but the weapon isn't. :( Has anyone else ever had this?

I did do a lot of work at The Strip before hand so I didn't know if it was lost during the process of the casinos stripping us of our weapons? I can buy another for her, it's fine. It's just odd and rather annoying. :\

I lost Pushy too. And after breaking into the cashier rooms of each casino, I have had no luck finding it.

Well, she could lost the gun in one of the casinos, but they can also lose their weapons in battle.

Dis you fighted some enemies before? If so, go to the location were it happened and search for the weapon.

So I'm guessing making her wear DLC unique armour isn't wise either, right? D:

Nope, not that I can remember. :( That day I did a lot of quests around the strip and managed to avoid most fights using a speech check. :\

I wouldn't know, I never give armor to my companions. I usually travel alone though. I finish their questlines and send em to the 38.

I never have any problems with companions losing weapons and they carry a lot for me. Be sure that once you give them one, you keep them supplied with ammo and always check the weapon's condition because they'll throw it away if it breaks. That never happens with me because I check a lot.

If you went to Gomorrah, there's a bug that doesn't track their weapons and only an empty Weapons inventory spawns for them when you exit Gomorrah. This also happened to me when I had them wait at Atomic Wrangler so they don't even have to be with you for the bug to erase their weapons.

Until the bug is fixed, I empty their Weapon inventory before I go in (be sure you can carry the weight) and then give them back when we exit since my weapons are tracked. I'm glad you only lost a laser rifle instead of a unique weapon. :)

My Laser Rifle... your unique weapon... sounds to me that Veronica has a little deal going on with the Gun Runners. The cheeky BoS SOB.

Well, companions CAN lose their weapons in a fight, just like when you shot a weapon of an npc he lose his.

If you take Veronica with you to Vault 34, for example, and give her Pushy you need to keep an eye on her, because when facing some thougher enemies there's chance he hits her weapon.
I was with Cass at one time in Quarry Junction and one Deathclaw jumped over her and hitted her weapon, All-American (with AP ammo). The gun was dropped and she started using her default weapon.

But if not in battle then the reason is entering one of the casinos. I'm on PC, the only casino who gives me trouble is Gomorrah, so I don't take companions with me when visiting.
All the other casinos never give problems.
I don't know how is on XBox and PS3, I read a lot of complains.

I had Arcade drop my plasma caster, because it was broken, maybe veronica dropped the laser rifle for a similar reason
