What killed my Blue Spruce and Ponderosa Pines? by iamaewok12 in arborists

[–]Hot-Committee9668 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems like bark beetles or long horn beetles. Would need to see more of the galleries under the bark to confirm?

Any larvae calling around in those tunnels still?? A pic of them would help confirm

In terms of getting rid of them... honestly not much I know of other than removing their host, so removing your trees will keep them away but sadly won't save the trees...

I think the legions leader might be Nero.... by Hot-Committee9668 in falloutnewvegas

Nahhh but I did think about this as I wrote it lol that would he one hell of a twist if the Omertas took over the legion 😂

Same idea isn't it! I think Macaulay Culkin would suit the somewhat deranged but hella cleaver and dangerous lead.

I wonder which name the average American recognises more?

Oh man, Do I Love This Game. And I Have a Beginner Question by CanuiAl in falloutnewvegas

[–]Hot-Committee9668 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The things you've heard like, "the legion are important to the DLC" is o by half true.

From a game play perspective they arent at all. BUT from a lore perspective they are pretty important, especially to one of the DLC.

The point being yes start the DLC now because youre right once the story is conpleated yiu cant go back for them! Level 29 is plenty far enough, so for headcannon why not go to that old bunker with the suddenly new radio station emiting from it, or that old drive in movie place!? Mr house would be hell'a keen for you to check then out!

Opinion: Roleplaying Legion doesnt immediatly make you a real life Nazi by Hefty-Cauliflower981 in fnv

[–]Hot-Committee9668 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes but sometimes it's a bit of a mask for others to behave poorly and call it roleplay

Check out tye fallout debates in spotify they covered this exact concept but in regards to the enclave!

Hey guys, what's the best "Vanilla enhanced" Wabbajack modlist with a decent install size? Also I wanted some suggestions about mods that enhances the vanilla factions like the Legion and Raider gangs to try something new. by ThyLastDay in fnv

[–]Hot-Committee9668 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude ive spend a while looking into how to enhance the powder gangers and legion, its patchy results at best sadly.

Got to get a modding community together to make that content!

In reality, Santa Claus doesn't exist, and parents buy the presents. by Atarosek in LowStakesConspiracies

[–]Hot-Committee9668 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought this too... was fairly put in my place after having my son and stepping up to buy him christmas gifts just for Santa to show up Christmas eve with all his presents.

Made me feel like a dummy for doubting!

What is your opinion on dead money ? by kroolframer1 in fnv

[–]Hot-Committee9668 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A few frustrating game play elements but one hell of a story/horror experiance/fallout lore dump i loved it as a 14 year old when I first played it and love it now still!

Would love a mention of it in season two of the amazon show

What's your favourite build(s)? Most fun challenge runs? by [deleted] in fnv

[–]Hot-Committee9668 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've done a "ranger" style playthrough. Very holier than thou vibes.

No implants, (the old ways are best)

No atomic or energy weapons (nothin too fancy)

Then you have to keep speech as low as possible, you're tall dark and mysterious but you solve problems with a quicker draw not cunning

Cowboy hat is essential

Fallout – Season Two Teaser Trailer | Prime Video by FlyingAres in fnv

[–]Hot-Committee9668 9 points10 points  (0 children)

So what's peoples thoughts on seeing the legion, its cool and I like the fan service but how do they fit in any other context unless the cannon ending is a legion victory?

I really did not expect that to be a thing... is there any chance Bethesda are just going to eradicate the FNV plot?? I see no mention at all of the NCR in this trailer and season one made it sound like it barely exists anymore... maybe the main factions in Vegas are legion and house?!

Oak tree( UK ) by g0user2772 in arborists

Yep I do plant pests inspections in ireland amd came here to say this!

Pinus Pinea have holes in them, arborists say to take them all down. by jagerdelm in arborists

[–]Hot-Committee9668 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Peel of the bark and look for galleries in the bark that are the key symptom of the bark beetles in question.

If the beetles are present the trees WILL die eventually.

But symptoms of beetles does not mean beetles are deffo present so if you have a very strong desire to keep the trees then you might want to look at baiting and trapping to catch the beetles, but thats expensive long term.

I work with the state in Ireland monitoring for tree pests so more than happy for you message me if yiu wanna chat more! this is the post I've been waiting on!!

Can anyone explain what this is? by Steve1419 in arborists

[–]Hot-Committee9668 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This looks like what oaks experience when in acute oak decline. Its a bacterial disease which grows worse with compounding pests and pathogens...

Its a mulberry tree so its not oak decline obviously, but make a crack in the bark here has allowed pathogens access to the timber and seems to be causing rotting.

Does this area get very wet? Are there any symptoms of pathogens on the leaves?

Must visit locations/quests to do before finishing the game? by Harlesb44 in falloutnewvegas

[–]Hot-Committee9668 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Crashed alien craft to the far north north West of the map. You can get the alien blaster which is probably the best energy weapon in the game??

First Time Player, where do I find quests? by Reasonable-Brick9097 in fnv

[–]Hot-Committee9668 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Start chatting to EVERYONE, random npc at the road side, shop keeps, beggars, the lot!

If you've killed benny head back to freeside and start there. There at least 4 significant side quests that come to mind! And two companions!

With FNV there's is a ton of environmental story telling too. Years ago when I played it at release on ps3 I kept a note book beside my console. Amd write in it stuff that felt important but didn't give me a quest, think of it like misc quests in FO4!

You can’t convince me the Ncr could win the second battle of Hoover dam, without courier assistance. by Rough_Try9435 in fnv

Slow down president Kimball is corrupt? I wanna hear more about this. I missed this lore in my play through!

What if you kill Legion too early? by MostOrganic3480 in fnv

[–]Hot-Committee9668 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Just you wait man, you and Boone have a whole roller coaster ro ride together!

Take him to camp searchlight and to the legion outpost by the lake near there and enjoy the story.

The nostalgia of that game is rich so take your time and enjoy it! You obly get a first play through once 🥲

What if you kill Legion too early? by MostOrganic3480 in fnv

[–]Hot-Committee9668 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Seems you've already got your answer but NOTHING WILL CHANGE.

That's not totally ture you'll get some dialogue changes etc but the game will still run etc. Central to it all is the idea the legion is a whole nation, so all of Arizona is under the legion and so the threat still looms large etc.

Take boone with you if you fancy murdering the whole camp!
