Any disadvantages for no companions?

Any disadvantages for no companions? - Free stock photo of care, child, city

I love how you can have a multitude of companions in this game that all give you perks and things.

I've also heard that bringing certain companions with you can trigger small scenes here and there.

However, I love to take my time, be very carefully around each corner, and companions just ruin all my sneaking attempts, so I don't use them :(...

I have the lone wanderer perk, so IMO it makes up for the carry weight that a companion can bring, and let's suppose that I have maxed all my character perks so I don't need things like lock picking and hacking, in that case, what are all the disadvantages (which cannot be made up for) does never brining any companions with me give my character?



Best Answer

You'll miss the companion quests, which can be interesting. Each companion has a quest that you can't access otherwise.

You're also missing the companion perks, each one has a unique perk that you can only get by getting your companions to idolize you.

Can companions break power armor?

Yes. If your companion's power armor pieces break, you can find them in their inventory. Yep.

Should I give my companion power armor?

If it's actually a combat scenario, then the companion may have a couple pieces of armor break, but if they weren't wearing the armor then that opponent would have likely downed them. I've only had a companion in power armor get downed so that I needed to stimpack them a couple times. I'd say this makes it worth it.

Can Piper use power armor?

Fallout 4. Aim at her and press the command button, likely E on PC, be sure you're far enough away that you don't start talking to her. Aim at the power armor then and it should say 'Enter power armor' again, make sure you're far enough away you don't get in yourself. Piper should then get in said power armor.

How do you get a companion to take off power armor?

Basically you just speak to them and there is a chat option to ask them to get out of the armour. It should replace the 'Relationship' option, under 'Talk'.

You could take Cait as your companion. She is the only companion who does not affect your sneak rating.

Another option, if you're on PC, is the Companions Can Sneak mod.

This mod re-makes all vanilla companions so that they do not affect your stealth meter(Sneaking).
