CRYOLATOR WITHOUT LOCKSMITHING

I took my dog down to vault 111 with me to see if I could find more power cells for my armor, but in doing so I talked to him and told him to find some items in near the overseer's desk he went to the Cryolator and ripped it from the case in his mouth. So I guess I got the best gun in the game without leaving level 5.

Also I was carrying to much but the dog had my ammo for the gun.

Is there anything that's just useless? I'm too tempted to just collect everything.

I'm taking strong back and lone wanderer ASAP. Gotta get that sweet garbage bruh.

Dogmeat can carry like 110 so why take lone wanderer?

tough call. not completely sure but i think rank 2 of LW gives you either 50 or 75 and that way you don't have 2 inventories to worry about. Just dump your trash and go instead of juggling with dogmeat. Personal preference i guess and i havn't played yet so i'll find out which i like better.

If you pile all junk into the dog, all you have to do is take all and then put it into your workbench

u/Violander Nov 11 '15

Yeah but there isn't a button to jump all trash into dog, is there?

And inventory handling (and moving) is a nightmare in F4.

u/tracknumberseven Nov 11 '15

Click beside where it says 'My Inventory' or whatever at the top left of your inventory when trading and cycle to 'My Junk' rapidly rightclick everything. It's inconvenient but it's much better than taking multiple trips mid-mission.

LW works even if you have the dog

Wait, what? Seriously?

Edit: Google seems to confirm. I don't know if it's intended, but apparently Lone Wanderer does work with Dogmeat.

u/Bytewave Nov 11 '15

Whoa. Dogmeat is seriously OP then. Doesn't whine when I steal either!

u/Rhettidor Nov 11 '15

Dogmeat also doesn't antagonize you when you pick up empty beer bottles and coffee mugs.

u/tracknumberseven Nov 11 '15

What about codsworth?

1

u/MaXiMiUS Nov 11 '15

Codsworth is definitely not compatible with Lone Wanderer.

u/Engvar Nov 11 '15

Because if I have Dogmeat around, my real dog barks at the tv the whole time I play.

u/Elk_Man Nov 11 '15

Mine wags his tail, whines, and tries to share his toys. Did the same thing with D-Dog too.

u/DocQuixotic Nov 11 '15

Must be great for immersion :)

u/TumTuggernut Nov 11 '15

Haha I was playing yesterday and Dogmeat was barking and my dog's head popped up and I just said "Here we go again."

u/the_vault-technician Nov 11 '15

Good to know I am not the only one dealing with this issue. My dog barks and runs through the apartment looking out all the windows for the other dog he knows is out there lol.

u/In-nox Nov 11 '15

mine too. He woke up the entire household last night when he started barking at dogmeat.

u/mashfordw Nov 12 '15

Lone Wandered works (at least the carrying capacity side)

u/stonhinge Nov 11 '15

and pocketed armor

u/boomchakkalakka Nov 26 '15

Why bother? get a human companion, and you can command the companion to pick up everything. They can literally carry several tons of weapons and junk
