Title: A family grave?
Post by: lukario on September 26, 2010, 01:51:13 pm
Tell me, did I found something nasty or I'm just lucky?

I was wandering on the wasteland and on sector 16:35 I encountered "A family grave", as you can see on the pic:

Three graves, one shovel, you bet what I did after.
I found a flower, a spectacles (?), necklace (?) and 10000 caps.
Did anyone saw anything like that before?
Is necklace or spectacles any use in this game?

Yes I am.

Do you know any other special encounters in this game? Maybe there's some list of it?

There is the vault shelter, this one, the Howitzer, and another with a vindicator inside.

Woah, cool map.

Edit: And no, necklaces and stuff like that aren't usable in the game. It's more of a collectible item, you can probably sell it for good caps in the Trade board.

It's not a special encounter. Just a lucky cave. You didn't had a specific encounter message, did you?

Crazy is right, it's not a special encounter. Special encounter are encounterable once per character's life, this random encounter isn't.

Do the glasses give you a PE bonus if yours is lower than a certain number?

As you can see i bumped onto it in the same area on the world map as lukario;) you can add it to wiki. Oddlly if those special encounters occur on the fixed world map areas.

I doubt they do, or are at least not supposed to.  Could you imagine the farming of those areas...
