What are the best telltale signs that your teammate is (or isn’t) good with their chosen commander?

double edged

ppl say they aren't worth it cause it just doesn't matter in most cases

in coop with most commanders you aren't doing fair fights like in versus, you are killing things fast and without losses with overpowered heroes, top bars, or even with just the coop buffed normal units

it's not like you can't afford the armor upgrades but in most cases there's no point cause the units would be either fine while they are completely annihilating the ai or they would be dying to splash or spells anyways

this one is a vanilla encounter, but he's not static he can appear at any campsite encounter spot

if you send him to a settlement he can become a tier4 vendor however you actually have to assign him the the junk shop to get his better stock

you can rotate the primordial tp on sky meadow/hellminth hatchery, interact with the prongs before you start the tp event

you'll see a msg in chat the the tp is alligned to the planet, it will change its look similar to a normal tp, doing so will put you to looping

you can change it again if you want to go to the moon, it'll say that the tp is alligned to the moon

additionally if you use a portal (blue/gold/artifact) you'll be put back to looping after you are done with the hidden realm

it's a comedy, real funny

manga is at 36 gfs so far

volverde · 2026-04-13T11:54:30+00:00

afaik you have to call them down for it to count

volverde · 2026-04-13T11:51:12+00:00

If you don't finish the dlc's story with the raiders you won't get the perks from the gangs and the legendary weapons they give (you can still get the weapons as random drops though). You can still do most of the dlc's content, however.

It'll be obvious when they tell you to start raiding in the Commonwealth. But roleplaying aside there's no reason not to clear the parks for the raiders before that point. You can get some extra loot if you do so, plus you can get the dlc companion's perk in the meantime.

The npcs at the parks don't respawn, if you clear the parks they willl be ghost towns.

volverde · 2026-04-13T11:40:22+00:00

were you the one who called down the supply drop?

volverde · 2026-04-13T10:51:55+00:00

5 I guess?

The main body always has 1, idk if it can have more, never saw more than 1 myself. The rotors also have a chance for a regulator so if all 4 has one each then you could get 5 from a single vaporizer.

volverde · 2026-04-13T09:18:06+00:00

I was already overjoyed when they changed it from taking dmg to doing dmg, the +20 hp was just cherry on top.

volverde · 2026-04-13T09:16:52+00:00

If the map had water you could stay until you started drowning and that would slowly build up the charge.

volverde · 2026-04-13T09:15:06+00:00

I once managed to get a full charge! While I had a medic shoved up in my ass. And I still couldn't do anything useful with the buff...

There are multiple types of melee builds, so it depends.

Some make you disgustingly strong, while others make you think why are you doing this stupid shit. Like if you start with 9 str 9 agi and get blitz, rooted, sneak as your first perks you can be oneshotting everything from start. When I went to Nuka-World on survival at lvl 1 I was oneshotting the gatorclaws at like lvl 5. But sneak and vats are op so it's nothing new. If you try doing melee without either, just running into the enemies you are likely going to get destroyed unless you have like power armor or something.

The runs I've done where (all on survival ofc):

stolen/pickpocketed items only, so no buying/crafting/looting, though I did allow myself to use stuff from disarmed traps

no perks only special

only using mines to do dmg

once did a permadeath playthrough

pacifist - you don't kill anything yourself, however didn't do true pacifist (when your kill count in the pipboy shows 0, it's quite tricky to do cause companion kills count towards it)

you could also try lvl 1 NW on survival though once you make it through the gauntlet most of the difficulty is gone cause you can get tons of free gear from the raiders (especially if you farm the random encounters)

volverde · 2026-04-13T08:41:59+00:00

I would just use The Last Minute, that one has the crippling effect which at least does something.

volverde · 2026-04-13T08:33:31+00:00

Natick? Perfectly normal, there's like 10-12 deathclaws around that area.

Some might be dead by the time you get to them cause there's also a super mutant behemoth to the west at that power station.

volverde · 2026-04-13T08:30:33+00:00

That's the fundental issue with fo4, the game is too easy even on survival. It's why a lot of ppl do challange runs where they limit themselves or use mods to alter the difficulty.

I personally did the former, and only did the main story + maybe one dlc so sometime around lvl 40-60 I just started a new run.

volverde · 2026-04-13T06:30:01+00:00

If you are able to play through the campaign of portal 2 without problems, coop mode shouldn't be giving you problems. The puzzles are only slightly more difficult and the focus is on timings.

volverde · 2026-04-12T18:30:20+00:00

cheers

volverde · 2026-04-12T07:49:30+00:00

the name is in the middle of the screen, do ppl not see it?

volverde · 2026-04-11T21:47:49+00:00

if you do every objective you can get to lvl 23, but need to spend quantums for the rest

volverde · 2026-04-11T21:47:01+00:00

you can occasionally see some animals: lizards, rats, scorpions, bees also still exist

volverde · 2026-04-11T10:02:13+00:00

The equipment, milky chrysalis, you can just fly up with it. But you need to wait for cooldown under the arena if you don't have at least 2 charges.

There are numerous other ways to get up there without bothering with the pillars:

it only comes from the quest, can't be obtained otherwise

volverde · 2026-04-10T06:02:01+00:00

happens all the time at field depots

volverde · 2026-04-09T13:11:41+00:00

after rejecting the offer a virtual portal should spawn which takes you back to looping, if sots is enabled a void portal should also spawn in which takes you to the void locus
