Title: Optimizing the power house
Post by: jonny rust on May 02, 2012, 01:50:55 am

Can anyone tell me what the science req is for optimizing the junktown generators?

The wiki says the only requirement is 100 repair but nothing about science...

Also, since I started the quest with only about 40 science, am I now on the clock to get it done? i.e. will I fail the quest if I don't get my science high enough to finish it in time?

thanks!

You can use 3 electronic parts I think to repair it

yea, thats for the repairing part. after that you are meant to optimize them as well...

I just found out that the req for optimization is 100 on science (it was posted in bugs)

But since I don't have that, my question about failure still stands... is there a time limit?

btw, it should probably mention this req on the wiki along side the repair req. I would add it myself but I have no idea how to do that...

thanks in advance to anyone who makes that happen!

Ive done this quest several times with low repair and science and with to electronic parts just gotta keep spamming your repair/science skill on the generator and hope that you will fix/optimize it

I just did the Repair portion of this with Repair skill 30% (plus a super toolkit in Slot 2). I was only able to do this with such low Repair skill because i used the e-parts as the quest intends.

Now for the Optimizing...i failed enough times using Science that i have a 30 minute cooldown (again). It says i'm too tired to make "repairs" and shows my Repair timer is suddenly at 30 minutes. Why a Repair timer when i was using Science, and not Repair? Not sure. This is 2nd time i have to wait 30 minutes on the Optimizing with this char, and his Science is 50.

Update: i got all 3 gens optimized using Science on third run. As for this being a timed quest, i have no idea about that. I don't want to test this since i'm picky about all my guys completing quests.

PS: i got stuck in JT overnight again doing this! Argh!

if you have 4 lvl, low speech and low barter + low ch - reward 1k, but you also dont need any repair/science skill.
there is scheme with which you need to repair generators ( 2nd 1st 3rd ) for example.

first - repair then optimization, as i remember.
with 125speech 150 barter and support perks i was able to get 3k caps and good rep with jt.
