Because the dialogue is hysterical and there is like 50 ways you can do the quest.

Want to just kill everyone? Sure, but that's stupid. Want to investigate, sneak out the baron's son, and out all of the White Gloves? Sure. Want to karate chop a dude while giving him a massage so you can dump him in the dumpster behind his house so you can feed him to the White Gloves? Sure. Want to drug everyone there? Sure.

3 is the highest your intelligence can be if you want the idiot dialogue. although you'll only have 11 skill points each level, and the dialogue doesn't always show up, it's kind of like a "skill check" that pops up every once in a while.

>Weapon
Protonic Inversal Axe

It's got strong stats, sure, but I really care more about the style. That powerful purple color of the blade, with the crackling electricity.

>Companion
Cass. Everything I'd ever want in a girl: strong personality, love of the simpler things in life, a determined spirit, and a nice butt.

>Quest

Hard to say. Probably Arizona Killer. Even though I almost never do Legion playthroughs, that one quest is sometimes worth it all by itself just for the 10 gorillion different ways you can do it, all equally spectacular.

I know this is a New Vegas thread but what the actual fuck is taking so long for the good mods for fallout 4 like a Cyberdog or Warhammer mods? Is the modding community still in a fucking tissy over a few ported mods on pleb boxes?
>>
>>343034629
It's pretty easy (and fun actually). So basically your goal is to get your caravans to between 21 and 26, preferably at 26. Face cards have special uses and can be played on your opponents cards to make them go under or bust. Once you learn to play, it's a really easy way to make caps. Some people can only play 5 total games, others can play infinitely. Check the wiki to check which is which because I do not remember.

>>343035379
>>343035396
You only need 6 PER for better criticals. Having more than this is useless.
>>
>>343035508
The game is not interesting and interactive enough to attract a good modding community
Now add drama to that soup and you'll get fallout 4s community
>>
>>343034629
I assume you're asking what determines the end of the game, since that's the most confusing part. Everything else is explained on the disc Ringo gives you.

There are three "caravans": left, middle, and right. The game ends once all three have a player who has a stack with a value of 21-26 for that caravan.

For example, if the board looks like this:
22...25...26
25...21...22
then the game ends in victory for the top side, which has a number from 21-26 in 2 out of 3 caravans that beats the bottom side's number. However, if the board looks like this:
26...26...30
23...26...17
then the game keeps going, because the right-side caravan doesn't have either player with a number from 21-26 yet.

That make any sense?

>>343034629
Bid high and don't rush to sell. Stack a lot of Jacks in your deck and apply them liberally. Use them every time you get one to knock your opponent's caravans back down. Always keep one in your hand in case they play a King and set you over the sell limit, and don't be afraid to pull the same dirty trick on them. Sometimes Blowing up one of your opponent's stacks is way more valuable than using a King to boost your own. Always plan out your flow so you never need Queens. Queens are big wastes of turns and should only be used to cinch a stack or to mess up your opponent's flow by directing it in a way that will force it to come up short or high. Don't start stacks with middling cards like fives or sixes, try to start high or low to give yourself as many opportunities to play non-face cards as possible. My personal strat is to start two caravans high, one low. That way I'm almost always ahead of my enemy, but still have a spot to flex out those lower value cards.

Once again, don't be in a rush to end the game unless you KNOW you have it wrapped. Use aces, kings, whatever you need to do to nudge every stack as close to 26 as possible. And of course, have fun. =]

Chain reaction. One anon decides to replay NV because he hasn't played it in a year or so. Other anons see the thread and realize they also haven't replayed NV in a year or so, and join in.

Kind of. Experience gain is tied to your intelligence, but there's a perk under the luck tree called idiot savant that effectively boosts your average experience to what it would be if you had high intelligence, meaning you can dump intelligence at 1 and be fine.

That said, there are of course some perks tied behind intelligence that you may consider worthwhile, such as the one for crafting weapon mods, so there is a bit of a trade off if you want to dump intelligence. Personally, I did a high luck, high charisma, 1 intelligence character and I did pretty fine. The lack of weapon mods was only a hindrance until I managed to strip some from weapons I'd find to put them all onto the one I was using.

You'll have a far easier time with a melee build than a guns build in Dead Money. Or most things really. If you have a super sledge, knock knock, or the Protonic Inversal Axe you can make literally any mob your bitch.

Ughhh, I can't stand this quest.

It's not that I don't like the specific characters, or set up of the quest itself, but it's placement in terms of the main storyline, and your path to New Vegas always makes it feel like such a fucking slog.

If you have Raul with the Full Maintenance perk when you go to do Dead Money, the perk sticks with you forever. The game only checks for the Regular Maintenance perk when it sees that Raul is a companion. I really appreciated this because that perk is the only reason to use Raul. Now I can use all the fun ammo without tearing my weapons apart.

It's my least favorite besides Lonesome Road, honestly. It's a serious chore to even bring myself to play it, but unlike LR I usually do play it. Honest Hearts is probably my favorite, but I live in Colorado and have spent quite a bit of time in Southern Utah so it holds a special place in my heart (pun not intended) for atmosphere.

I think FAH HAHBAH has lever actions, but I haven't played FO4 since any of the DLC came out so can't confirm. 3 definitely had the Lincoln repeater lever action. I don't remember any from FO1 or 2. Didn't play BOS or Tactics so can't say.

I used a guns build and went in at level 12. The police pistol could reliably 3 shot every ghost in VATS. 2 shot if I got a crit.

The police pistol is way better. I used my excess caps to buy .357 ammo and turn it into SWC ammo. I was 2 shotting everything in VATS and killing ghosts in packs of 3 easily.

Except the police pistol does less damage than the Auto Rifle so you're still wrong.
>>
>>343064329
The regular gattling laser might be a better gun because of it's 240 ammo pool.

However, both guns have seriously fucked DPS against anything with medium or higher armor.
>>
>>343064547
Police Pistol is shit though, I only use it for shooting radios. For a Guns build I use the Automatic Rifle against two or more, just look down the sights and that cuts a lot of the spread. Its on target for the first 5-6 shots after that it can't reliably hit a target.
>>
>>343064682
Except I would invariably spend more ammo while using the BAR because of missed shots. So you're wrong.
>>
>>343064967
>because of missed shots

>Not really an issue with stealth

>>343064786
So I'm killing things with 2 shots and you're using 5-6. Why can't you accept that the police pistol is perfectly good at carrying you through the whole DLC?

Why an't you accept that the BAR is a POS and it sucks? You only get like 50 AP rounds with it during the DLC. afterwards, you should be tossing the BAR for the LMG.
