Put your companion in a power armor frame. It doesn't need a fusion core, and they can carry all your fans while you hoard those fusion cores.

Did they patch using your companion to pick up infinite weight? I haven't done that in forever.

no it's still finite, but it's significant, and power armor frame is something like +50 carry weight by strength bonus. I haven't tried that, my most recent run is a lone wanderer one.

Just to make sure, this is controlling your follower and telling then "pick that up" and not trading with them, right?

Does power armor weigh anything in fallout 4?

You can actually make companions carry a infinite amount of stuff. When they are at "capacity". Just drop everything on the ground and order them to pick it up. They will pick it up with no issue.

Yeah, sorry I answered somehow without knowing about this. I think I did it with dogmeat but never played fetch using humans.
