wasted Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 Tried to take the castle and some legendary glowing mirelurk appeared and absolutely destroyed me. Every type of ammo barely scratched it. Anyone beat it? Only level 14 at the moment, gonna head back to it after some easier missions. A bottlecap mine to cripple it's legs will sort you out. r.e. the mirelurk queen, keep moving about the castle walls and hitting it with a couple of nukes from a fatman. On my second play through and I'm sure there was a fatman in the castle somewhere the first time round. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrestersKTID Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 The mirelurk Queen? Most people struggle with that, particularly at lower levels. Mines, big guns and running away are your friends. Nah the mirelurk queen isn't the problem its this wee glowing version of your standard mirelurk thats the real b*****d. My guy is too slow to outrun it and it keeps mutating and regaining its health if your anywhere near beating it. Minutemen just sit back and laugh as sole survivor is being ridden by an oversized crab. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fide Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 Does any know what the Eddie Winter holotapes are all about? I can't remember if it's random or a generated quest, but each holotape opens up a new spot, generally a police station, on the map. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd found all but one of them before I got him to tag along with me and like me enough to spill the beans. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd found all but one of them before I got him to tag along with me and like me enough to spill the beans. Disappointing ending, I thought. The loot you got wasnt really worth the hassle of the quest Edited March 10, 2016 by Mr X 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm taking a few days break from Fallout as I bought Division, but will be back to it soon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dunwich Borers one was by far the worst. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The amount of effort expended finding all the tapes was disproportionate to the reward at the end. Dunwich Borers was a lot easier 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The amount of effort expended finding all the tapes was disproportionate to the reward at the end. Dunwich Borers was a lot easier I found the Dunwich Borers mission one of the better ones actually, as at least they tried to put something into the quest other than "go here-kill this-come back for reward". Found myself more drawn into that one than most other missions. It's just a shame that there aren't more like that - there's a few towards the end that were written out as full, storied quests, but the vast majority I find myself doing are just the bland radiant quests to keep you busy. I'm nearing the end now I think... Decided to side with the Railroad, so got to the point where I'm in charge of the Institute and tasked with killing Desdemona. Wasn't going to do that, so was told to keep working for Father. Luckily I checked online - I assumed you'd get called back when ready, but you had to go back to the Institute to trigger the rest. Finally got the Railway Rifle, which was great fun for firing at the BoS goons that attacked. Nice little quest on the Prydwyn, and a great explosion at the end of it, and now I must have just the one quest left - taking down the Institute. To be honest, it'll be quite good to finally finish the game in a way - I've enjoyed it, but feels like a missed opportunity in a lot of places. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't a quest. Actually, that's quite an odd thing too - they put a hell of a lot of story into the area compared to others, but you're right, they didn't actually surround it in a quest. Weird. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunwich Borers is tremendous, once you enter the mines (the mines!) of course. And the loots worth it, especially if you're doing a melee build 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
