Sure, she looks like a bank robber or something, with the bandana + glasses.

I also realized the way she pwned that deathclaw was pretty much an old exploit of Bethesda AI; get on a higher plateau and the enemies get "stuck in place" down below, which is their usual drrrr method since Morrowind. --- Trying to get at us but unable to jump onto the higher level or whatever-- or so it seems. Turns out, deathclaws CAN jump! Forgot about that. And Jenn did get swatted a couple times, but the monster mostly was trying to get into the building, run up the stairs like she did, etc.

Alright, that's all. Going to try squeezing in a Fallout 4 session before heading to my sister's place tonight for

Alright what's the deal with Fusion Cells and power armor? Maybe my game is glitched but the armor's power just ran out. The only option was to exit the suit so did this. But how do I add a new fusion cell to it? Some website says to center our reticle on the suit's rear wheel and activate but this doesn't add power, only allows us to enter the suit.

Tried to transfer but I don't see anything on my inventory (left side of screen) at all so there's no option to transfer anything (on Xbox) <---- heh, maybe that's the problem.

Maybe the cells Preston Garvey gives us are bogus/have zero charge? HELP!!!!!!!!!

Merry Xmas, y'all.

What you're actually looking for is Fusion CORES, not fusion cells. Fusion cores are what power, well, power armor. Fusion cells are for laser weaponry. Those work a lot differently than Fallout 3 in that regard. IIRC, your character should automatically place a fusion core in the power armor if there isn't one already, though maybe I'm mixing that up with Fallout 76. I think you can also click to transfer items and put a fusion core in that way.

In any case, it sounds like you don't have any more fusion cores. But don't worry about that starting power armor, because there are plenty more suits you'll come across later that are better. And by then, you'll have a lot more fusion cores.

(Also, note that if you use a gatling laser, that uses fusion cores as their ammo.)

Fusion cores will seem rare starting out, but trust me, you'll have more than you'll know what to do with not too far into the game. The best place to find those is in fusion generators, which you'll start to recognize by the whirring sound they give off, and they are most colored in a faded blue and yellow. Look for those especially in manufacturing-type plants and places that have basements like some stores. But you can occasionally find them in chests/steamer trunks/safes and even more rarely in things like toolboxes.

Did Blood Raven paint her armor with blood?

Okay, who brought that deathclaw down if Blood Raven and Jenn X were in the town at the same time?

Jenn X looks like a proper bank robber. She wears the same outfit as my character Vinnie wore for the most part of his game.

As Rader said, you need Fusion Cores to power the suit. They just need to be in your inventory.

Ah I see, there's a difference between Fusion Cores and Cells. man, I'm so dumb!




I like to think there were TWO monsters running amok, so they each got one. Blammo!



Vinnie's such a badass! I eventually want to roll a more Evil character too. Which is what Nuka World's about, right?
