I save alot only because I die at random points from a mine or something. I never save and reload for charisma checks or things like that.

There was a big analysis on reddit about this. Basically, Idiot Savant is always worth taking. Even at 10 INT.
I think it's under power, but there's a radio signal tower that sends out a signal to attract new settlers (the description says that) you set it up and hook it up to power and eventually new settlers come
Ah, got it. Makes sense now when I saw that referenced with the idiot savant perk. I get it now lol.
Oh ok, just like in that quest at the start when you set up the tower at the other settlement. Thanks!
Can anyone with a higher level character give their opinion on:
Rifleman vs Gunslinger perks
Are there a good amount of high level pistols that do good damage? Does the armor Shredding ability of rifleman make it way better than Gunslinger? I prefer hand cannons in most games but I'm pretty torn over this.

You can scrap weapons from the weapons bench as long as they're in your inventory. Just go like you would to mod them and hit R.

Thank you!!
You have to go to the weapon bench and break down all your weapons in your inventory. So load up all your guns from your workbench inventory, walk over to the weapon bench, and break down the weapons you don't need.

So I should get idiot savant right away? Is the 2nd perk worth it as well? I am not going to "save scum"

goddamn, if people are missing things like the armor rack in Sanctuary, imagine all the stuff they miss when exploring the wasteland.

Man, I am 16+ hours into this game already. I haven't been this addicted to a game in a long time. I'm enjoying the hell out of it. I do have a couple questions, though.
Does anyone know of a good place to get .308 ammo? I've pretty much cleaned out all the vendors I know about and rarely seem to find it.
Do you have to keep those comics/magazines in your inventory to get the bonuses or are they permanent bonuses just for finding them? I have like 10 of them in my inventory I'd really like to get rid of if I can.

Not at all. Makes more sense than every region in the US magically having different songs preserved for some reason.

So I'm not digging sanctuary as a base of operations, I wanted to put some work into it to make it cool but it seems too big, too daunting. Should I just wall off the houses I actually use and call it a day? Will the settlers stay within the walls or just the green boarder?
Also I heard you could build on top of the Red Rocket Gas Station but I wasn't able to build a set of stairs to get up there, any ideas?
Also in 3 you could pick up items in the world with R3, there some dead mole rats in the garage can pick them up and move them out of there? Or scrap them in workbench mode.

Was wandering around downtown Boston when I came upon a Deathclaw for the first time (aside from the scripted one at the start of the game).
Didn't even break a sweat.

That's hilarious. I have a shit-ton of .308 ammo (I had over 800 at one point) and it's basically the only ammo I don't use with my current weapon set. Yet here I am scrounging around for shotgun shells and .45 ammo.
And people wonder why we buy this game despite all the bugs and issues. Well played.

Lol, if that happened to me, I'd be torn between laughing my ass off or getting pissed that I'd wasted a mininuke when a single normal bullet would have ended up triggering the stranger.
The game will not auto scrap weapons or armor.
It just so happens that weapons are a great source of screws. I think this is what he means.

Wait whaaat? I was under the impression you couldn't move/manipulate objects anymore?
Hold down A. (or X on PS4). Whatever your "interact" button is.
Hold down the action button. A, X, whatever. That seems to let you move things.
I see the Pipboy edition is worth the preorder.
That was my first thought, but also there were a lot of other songs during that time and a DJ gets to choose what they want to play so they easily could've had all fresh songs. Maybe just one or two for nostalgia.
Anyway, I'm not really complaining. The songs are great. The Billie Holiday song was our first dance song at our wedding. Just thought it was strange, is all.
Pick a fight with some Gunners. There are a bunch around the Mass Fusion Building around Cambridge. They usually have some laser pistols, and you can mod those into a rifle by adding a stock.
Still works like shit. I've given up on building. I hope they can improve on building in a future patch.
Moving shit while building is easy. Just highlight it and press A.
Yeah, but I mean lowering or raising items on uneven terrain or things not snapping together when they should. That stuff you can also do with X + L1 and that just doesn't work smoothly for me.
Interesting. When live streaming on PS4, the licensed music on the radio station isn't streamed. You can hear the DJ talking between songs but not the music.
I'm not complaining, it's just surprising to me they can even do that. I think this is the first time I've seen a PS4 game control what specific audio is broadcast when live streaming.

Finding legendary enemies pretty frequenty on normal, there was a farmer being chased by a Legendary mongrel alpha and its pack, killed them and he ran off only to get killed by a legendary raider and his party..poor farmer..the first battle with the captain of thw ship has 2 legendary raiders i found a way to jump off the ship to go straight to looting them both..
The last Legendary I killed was a raider behind an advanced locked door near am area full of mutants..that clean stealth kill netted me a Chameleon left arm piece. It is my baby.
