Every Fallout Companion Ranked From WORST To BEST

Ойындар

    Nah, I think Preston is the second worst and Ian is the worst, at least Preston can aim when he bothers to. Also, for the longest time I thought Dogmeat in fallout 3 was set essential, because in all the years I’ve played this game, I never once had him die on me.

    NV: Boone and ED-E. FO4: Dogmeat and Strong. At least they will actually get in an enemy's face and fight instead of hiding behind a wall to lean out and just shoot ineffectually at things (and miss most of the time). Of course, with FO4, I tend to always have Dogmeat and companions I've picked up from actual mods because mod companions are usually better than the vanilla ones.

    I realize it would probably be to much for the game to handle, but I wish there was a way to take into account what settlers have. I show up back in Sanctuary. A settler tells me about some raiders hassling them. I accept the quest, Olivia Station. I look at 20+ settlers equipped with a variety of upgraded lasers, plasma weapons, assault rifles, ect. Many are wearing armor I didn't have access to until I was at least level 20. All have ballistic weave. They even have three massive artillery cannons in the surrounding settlements that could turn Olivia into a crater. I shrug and march off to slaughter some helpless raiders who should have taken one look at the settlements in the area, and promptly moved to the Glowing Sea because it would be safer.

    He also recognizes spelling and grammar as well. I tried making a Barbarian character named Grognak, but I styled it as a nickname. His full name was Stu "Grognak" Bonner, parentheses included, and when the time came, I got "Sir". Had to shuffle it around so that my guy actually legally changed his name to Grognak "Stu" Bonner to get it to work.

    I am playing Fallout 2 and I found this very useful. I had gotten onto the Enclave's secret base but kept dying so I reloaded an earlier game. I already figured out that Bad Luck dog had to go and thanks to your analysis I sacked Sulik and took on Marcus instead. I did notice however that bad luck dog doesn't seem to take a character slot, or at least he can join you even if you don't have a free slot.

    When I first installed Fallout 3 GOTY, played without any mods, Dogmeat (along with Fawks) were virtually unkillable. Apparently Broken Steel gave them both max level stats no matter what level you meet them. When I tried the game again with the unofficial patch mod, this was corrected and Dogmeat would run off and get killed by anything. When I found out it also corrected the health of the winterized power armor, I just disabled the patch.

    Nick is also unique in that he is HEAVILY involved in the main story of Fallout 4 and Far Harbor. And if he’s your main companion then he is even more heavily involved. He’s practically a main character for most of the game, a main character in a dlc, a significant side character in a few side missions, a main character in his personal mission, and a primary companion. I’d arguably say that he is more involved in the main story of the game he is in more than just about any other companion in the series. No companion in the story does more for The Sole Survivor than Nick.

He is quite alive in the DLC using beeps and other electronic sound to express emotion. Thus ED-E is like a living being rather than just an Eyebot. He acts as a workbenches, repairs your weapon for free once a day, and supplies energy ammo. This is from the Commradri-E he gets from upgrades. And you get the perks to the original ED-E. I wish you can have the ED-E personality from Lonesome Road in Vanilla New Vegas. It makes ED-E more....alive

    If you have Broken Steel installed and do not use the unofficial patch, Dogmeat and Fawkes are almost indestructible. Many use the patch, which will turn Dogmeat into tissue paper again, or at least, it did for me.

    He’s died several times on me. The one time I tried to kill him he was suddenly tough as nails, but on a normal day in the wasteland, he walks onto on a mine or charges straight for enemies you’ve barely scoped out with a sniper rifle and intended to just ignore.

    Yeah it's because of Broken Steel. In short: they wanted to buff Dogmeat and Fawkes health, and accidently buffed them too much. So instead of being just a slight buff to make them more viable, they ended up with around 25000 hp.

    i feel like Raul adds a lot to the game with his commentary. I like that they kept his quest simple as hes pretty self reliant. but his character really comes out in what he has to say about your actions and the places you travel.

    Nice list but we all know the best companion is The Final Pam: The Unyielding, The Undying, The Devourer, The Existence-Eater, the Fearkeeper.

    Pam is too powerful to be contained on a list. They omitted her for our safety.

    I really found her love quadrangle between Trash Hulk, Metal Husband, and the tragically late Roachie, to be by far the most immersive and deeply emotionally impactful companion back story in the entire series.

    Danse, Boone, Curie, Rex and ED-E are my favourites. Danse number 1. Just, his backstory and he's so sweet, he has my whole heart 50 times over.
