Fallout of Nevada is one of the best games I played in recent years

 

[Nikanuur]

Wow! Dogmeat's actually leveled after all! He's now a stunningly high level 2
I don't know when it happened. I've acquired him on PC level 3, and I've stopped hoping for his advancement around lvl5.
PC now being a level 9, I can (barely ) survive the generic raiders' ambushes, i.e. 2 riflemen, 2 melee, against me and my trusty Dogmeat. He's actually critted raider for 32 a while ago! At level 1, he scored 15 at most, mostly hitting for 3-10.

Don't know about Nevada, but Dogmeat in FO2 can hit 19 or 21 AP...

In that case, Nevada's Dogmeat is different indeed. He doesn't hit that hard, but he often topples an opponent, and he can serve as a semi-tank. Some 120 HP on lvl2 or so. In other words, he's implemented quite carefully. He doesn't break the game too much, more like adds a dimension to fights. Anyway, I was sort of musing, mine wasn't anything acerbic. I hope it wasn't percieved as such.

Whats very good NEVADA char build?

Either use the machine translation, learn Russian or wait until (some ambiguous date that may or may not happen at some point in the future, maybe).

Whats very good NEVADA char build?

small guns, speech, pump int/agi





But really, classic fallout builds work fine. Unarmed is very good. Energy weapons in the latter part, etc.

Just have in mind that for a lot of quests, science, repair and doctor will come in very handy, but those can also be buffed a lot with books.

lockpicking is also a good skill to tag. Dump charisma, you don't have followers.

perks: gifted (obviously) and something else.

I went with gifted + good natured , 6/7/4/1/10/10/8 Small guns, Speech, Science
I think unarmed with skilled replacing gifted would be better, but im sticking what i got lvl 6 atm.

 

[Cael]

I generally go with gifted + small frame for the +8 stats.

In Nevada you losse a lot of skill points because there is a lot of skill checks and gifted takes away 10 of each skill which is huge loss. Also small frame is bad because there are no companions to carry stuff.

You get a car though... And there are lookers in every town where you can store stuff.

With 10 Int, you will get 100 in plenty of skills pretty fast.

And no companions is no fun...

 

[Alphons]

With 10 INT you lose the bonus INT point from solving the various investigations.

I did my last run without investing a single point into weapon skills (of course used the Small Guns skill books). Detective's Special you get from dealing with Molerats gang carried me the entire game due to it's low STR requirement.

Spoiler

Started with 3 STR, +3 from PA and +1 from boxing coach, +1 CHR from beauty kit, +1 INT from Private Investigator and +1 Luck from businessman

Nice jack-of-all-trades char you got there !

 

[Snufkin]

This will be doublepost by me but fuck it.

Alphons do you think it would be wise to use luck as dump stat?​

 

[Alphons]

It all depends on what you plan to do. Definitely don't dump Charisma as you need to have at least 5 and drugs to progress the jazzman/ stripper questline in Reno (plus a female with Charisma gets a few opportunities for extra money)

I'd say that if you don't plan to go through the entire game blasting everything, then I'd say that in terms of dumping it's:

1. Endurance- there aren't many fights outside of random encounters and you'll almost always have some assistance from NPCs. With decent crits and some money you can get 2 Endurance points

2. Strength- you'll be carrying a lot of stuff, but there're lockers in every city and you can always travel by bus (or get your own car). If you have money to burn then you can get 1 extra point very early and PA further down the line for another 3 points.
Most of new weapons need max 6 Strength.

3. Luck- you'll have tough time near the end without either Sneak or crits. You can get 1 extra point in the second half of the game after burning some money (+ you have to finish certain quests)

I have very detailed guide in polish language and there is plenty of Charisma uses with 7-8-9-10 in that stat.

I uploaded it translated into english:

I'm about to start Nevada. Just to make sure, 2.0.3.3 is the current version, right?

Yes, I personally use the Extended Edition, which is the latest Russian version with the latest English patch, sfall, configurator, IFP, HRP and many bug-fixes.

I wonder about Nevada pacifist run. Should be easily doable.

I did pacifist run of Sonora, it was mostly smooth aside from three engagements

 

[Alphons]

Yeah, everything is doable, but you'll miss some good endings/ some other people will die.
Though there's one quest that expects you to kill and if you accomplish the objective without anyone dying then the console will tell that you've failed (it will still progress and you'll get the reward).

Spoiler

Ambushing Bertollini's courier for Big Louis. If you pickpocket the package and leave before he gets attacked then the console tells you that you've failed and angered Louis.

I've avoided most kills, but used the wire from Vegas to strangle some people (they're not added to your Kills).

Spoiler

Slavers in Vegas to free the slaves, drug lab staff to free the test subjects, Provo leaders for good ending, Ripper to save Big Louis once he becomes jazzman, Harrelson to save the scavenger from SLC and the final clone at Government Vault that would kill the engineer

 

[Anthedon]

How do I change the ownership of the uranium mine? I gave the explosives to Wright and cleared the worms, but now neither Nelson nor Wright have any new dialogue options where I could advance the quest further. Do I have to give it to the union guy?

You have 3 choices regarding the mine:

Wright- kill Nestor (strangle him or blow up, otherwise others may attack you), lets you do the rest of Wright's quest and get his Rep Title.

Nestor- get him the explosives, but that fails the quest with scavengers as these are the only explosives in the game (so you also lose the metal detector upgrade)

Union Atomic Workers- you can fail this one if you tell Nestor about the guy planning to take over

 

[Anthedon]

And I'm through. What a ride, Nevada is comparable to Archolos for Gothic II. Some (no doubt) crazed Eastern European modders managed to make a whole new installment that is about on par with the original game.

Sonora is better.
