I don't even scrap my weapons. I stock them all up and then barter them off for stuff that I need. Like hard to find ammo. Same goes with clothing/armor and other items. I'll pack rat them up and then barter them off when the vendor restocks.
When I want a Legendary weapon only available from a vendor I tend to unload that rubbish Raider Power Armor pieces I am carrying to bring the price down. I can't believe anyone would pay for that Raider junk but business is business I guess. I also sell my almost spent Fusion Cores since a drained one with just a little bit of life left in it gets just as much as a fully charged one.
Really!!!! I didn't know that. I have some that are used and considering that I don't use power armor I may have to look into that.

I just make a legendary weapons if I don't like the ones I find. It's not something I do very often though. It typically requires a lot of hard to find material to create one. On top of that, I don't often use the ones I find because I can usually mod a weapon that can do better damage that most of the legendary weapons I find.
I don't use most of the legendary weapons or armor for that matter. I just sell it most of the time.

I might have to take the duct tape of off Preston Garveys mouth. While it's been so nice not having to hear (non-stop) about those idiotic settlers, I haven't heard about anything but Ten Pines. I should have the drive in up and running by now as well as well as those whiners on the railroad tracks.

The drive in is a great place to build. Good location to run a supply line and you get at least 3 main vendors that stop by. More often than not there will be a main vendor there.

My shacks are around that waterhole also, but just at a greater distance. LOL I have since cleaned it up.

I've been travelling with Preston lately and got the shock of my life yesterday when during a dialogue with him the option to 'Flirt' appeared. I'm not sure what kind of perk is involved with romancing Preston Garvey but I don't think I want to go there. BTW, I returned to the Cambridge Police Station and the two 'drones' from the BOS were back handing out assigments to collect technology and clearing areas. Easy XP anyway.

the perk for romancing any companion is the same, regardless of who they are. though only some companions have that option.

You must mean the "Lover's Embrace" after sleeping together. I must be getting close to reaching max affinity with Preston. I just hope I don't need to flirt with him to get whatever the max affinity perk is going to be.

Romancing isn't required for the companion perk, they are separate things. that said, some may keep approaching you after you reach max offering an option to romance until you directly turn them down (or accept for that matter)

I'm running with Cogsworth now... Did Nick, Piper and Strong already. I'm reminded that some people play women characters. I suppose the game does a lot to enhance the players experience. I'll not be romancing Cogsworth... that would from the look of him be extremely uncomfortable.

There is no option to romance Codsworth. Even Bethesda has a line it won't cross.

We can only hope! I didn't spend much time with Dogmeat because he was always running around giving away my position, blowing himself up with landmines and wasting my Stimpacks to bring him back from the brink of death after attacking a giant Mirelurk. After I found Strong I put Dogmeat out to pasture.

Macready gives a nice perk at the end. Well worth it for me.
Survival didn't last. Was too hard for me. Being complete critical/damage specced, I sure can't take a lot of hits. I didn't try using Lance(?), though, The BOS guy as my tank. Hmmm....

Don't want to take a walk on the wild side???? LOL I was wondering about the 2 "drones" and if they would be handing out the mission. I did the first part of the castle quest and Preston stopped giving me missions. I forgot that I had one to complete and after I did he started giving mission again. All of it is easy XP.

Dog Meat doesn't die so save your stims. You can always build a robot but they do take robot stims. They do have some fire power and they carry more weight than Dog Meat.

There is an assaultron that has invisibility and some very very deadly weapons. 4 hits from that one and it's all over, including the crying. I don't remember those weapons before the update. And this is normal mode!!!!

I'd try it but not now. I'll wait until I get a little higher in the leveling and pretty much done with it. But that may be a while considering that a new DLC is suppose to be released shortly.

I'm done with Preston having reached max affinity and being awarded a "United We Stand" perk whatever that is. I couldn't believe my eyes when during the conversation, in bright red letters, I had the option "Romance" staring me in the face if I hit the 'up' arrow. OMG, not happening. I just chose the 'Apologize' option and it was thankfully over. No hugs, kisses or any of that other mushy stuff.

I had to start over again due to an issue with save corruption. No biggie, Im almost back up to where I was.
Been hanging with Dogmeat a bit more than I did the first time. Im wondering if he got a bit of a boost with the 1.3 or 1.4 patches, because he seems to be a bit meaner and tougher than I remember. Watching him take down a Raider is pretty brutal and I was right next to him as he trashed a bunch of molerats. Then there was the feral that he thought was a tug toy. He had it by the leg and was dragging it around. I think he looked a bit upset with me after I shot it.

I noticed it also. He seems to be a whole lot more aggressive now. Carry weight seems to be the same though.

Did you stop after your companions rejected you the first time? You still kept it up until they submitted. I think you are going to have sweet dreams about him. Who's tapping on your shoulder now? LOL

This is one problem, I have noticed. If you send someone out on a supply line, it's very hard to find them.

I have found Piper more than once at Finch Farm and at the drive-in but haven't seen nor heard from her recently. I just noticed that my supply line from Sanctuary to Abernathy Farm is missing meaning the Caravan was probably ambushed and the Provisioner killed. I hope it wasn't Piper. Poor Piper is either in a Super Mutant's kettle simmering for his lunch or she is fertilizer for somebody's crops. Dear sweet Piper, gone but not forgotten! I assigned Deacon to that supply line yesterday. He was loaded up with some nice weapons so he should be able to fend off any Raiders, Synths or Robots that want his goodies on the Brahmin.

I don't know if I should trust Piper or Cait to carry a Fatman...They both have a lot of energy.
