Title: Question about followers and new system
Post by: Zogra on January 12, 2012, 12:22:24 am
If i have char 1(10PP) and speech 100(33PP) + good natured(50PP)+ magnetic personality(50PP) tottal 140PP

can i still get a companion and a merc at the same time to travel with me?

cause if char is 1 party limit is 1 i think so...

Does charisma affect companions or they just work only with party points?

If charisma is needed for them then how much i need so i am able to have 2 mercs or 1 merc 1 companion to travel with me?



PS i hope charisma affects only real player party limit and not companions or mercs
PS2. if char is 1 can u initiate dialog with companion?
ps3. where to find companion? i look all over bars and i didnt get any strange dialogs from anyone :(
 my speech is low atm but on end build it will be 100% so only with 100% speech and good natured, magnetic personality and char 1
with the above stats will i be able to talk and get a companion or 2 of them to follow me?


Ty in advance

charisma does not determine how many follower max you can have only your PPs.  nothing else.

and yes you can have ANY followers no matter the mix as long as they fit into your PPs.

Only party-ponts.

Dunno if u can talk to them with char 1...  i would think so.

they are very rare.  try looking for one later in the night. ( or lowest population anyways)


btw, very useful thing for mercenaries:

Long as you got the points, BUT, maybe you cannot have (MERCENARIES) because, I remember their dialogue would say some bs about you so ugly when u talk to them pre-wipe with 1 charisma.  It's probably still there.

How about drugs that give + charisma? lets say you got a follower just because you used some + charisma drugs. when the buff wears off, do they still stick to you or do they leave because of not enough PPs? :)

another question: do you get xp from companion-kills? i can remember, that was the case in fallout 2

I have a question about the new system.  What about human (player) followers?  Is it still (CH-1)/2?  Or is it different for players following you now?

if you mean purely players, then yes, charisma and charisma alone still controls that.

if you mean Human NPC followers, then no, it's only based on party-points which is a mix of perks speech Skill and charisma.

but with 1 ch you can't take folowers on WM

tryed to have a brahmin and told me that i do not have the CH required to lead the party

so you need CH to transport people

1 point of CH is maximum in WM party you can carry

4 CH you can carry yourself on WM and otehr 3 folowers, NPC or player
