The Molecular Level - DIY signal interceptor without faction help?
I'm trying to do The Molecular Level quest but I seem to have run into a problem.
I've gotten the plans from Virgil but I don't have the "special" tab from the workshop interface to build any of the components. Is there something I need to do to unlock the special tab?
Best Answer
You need to be allied with a faction from what I can tell, then talk to their tech specialist.
You should be able to do it with the Minutemen if you've taken back the Castle.
The possible factions are the Minutemen, The Institute, Brotherhood of Steel and Railroad.
I personally used BoST build it, but a plot twist has made me consider stabbing them in the back. Just saying.

The "faction-less" method for The Molecular Level is using the Minutemen. If you show the blueprints to Sturges he will unlock the various structures in the Special section of the Workshop menu.
