Will I unlock something if I reach level 2? Or do you give all your stuff to Thomas for nothing? It's a scam?

You're kidding, right?

Hack him and all his followers up, it's what the cool kids do.

If you think it's a good idea to give all your money and possessions to a cultist you just met, go for it! And you may want to google scientology while you're at it, it's the perfect sca- I mean religion for you!

Yeah it's a scam mate.

"Blue, I think it's a trap."

This quest should be done in power armor while wearing an gatling laser or similar weapon, the broadsiders is even better. It makes an good comedy.

I had an vertibird crash killing most of the followers during the discussion in front.


On the other hand I paid 110 caps for an credit card an guy was selling outside the castle.

Then he ran off I simply shot him but it was well worth 110 caps to see that happened.

It would have been fun if you were able to join the cult and convince the cultists to attack their leader.




Me too!


"I'm glad you asked! We- *BOOM!*"

I did this just to see what happens, but then:

Shouldn't this have been asked in the Spoiler section? I've never even met this guy.

That depends on if you want to be free from worldly attachment.... In a vidiogame that you own.... So you probably do not.

Technically he is not scamming you because he came right out and told you he wants you to give up all of your possessions to join, not like he is trying to trick you.

Level 2 is when you realize it does not matter if you get to level 2

ROFL. Don't watch TV Shop or any of those church channels =)

Here's a shocking hint for those who haven't done it yet...... There's going to be VIOLENCE either way!

It's not actually the same 'Brother Thomas' person. It's a different wastelander re-starting the scam after the original Pillars were killed. Probably a devotee that was not on site at the time. Different face mesh and moustache, but keeps the Thomas name to match the flyers.

If you go with the intimidating option you even get to tell him 'I killed the last guy pulling this scam...' and he immediately relents and does whatever you want, but will no longer speak to you afterwards.

I gave him my stuff and he didn't attack me, I don't know what you mean.

As another poster mentioned, you'll have to go back there for the Cabot House quest.

Your stuff will not be there.

Cool. Him respawning would've been lame.

I compromised with him; instead of all my possessions I gave him two shotgun shells.

I felt it was a nice touch. Raiders ended up killing him later in my playthrough and the amphitheater is just a pile of corpses being picked over by the occasional raider now.

You could say all of them died in a fire after my interview.

You can get her out of there with no violence. I've done it.

No. But it is worth making the whole scam crew headless.

If you actually believe him, by all means, contribute your part to the community and donate to his cause.

Me too.
