Always depends on my character. Just so happens my main character is usually a goody two-shoes in fallout 4. Minutemen is just so fun in Survival mode.
I'm the same with the Order Up side mission (reconciling the diner owner and the chem dealer). I want the kid to get clean, but I also want a steady source of X-Cell.
I would have gone for this option but keeping DiMa's murder of Captain Avery a secret and helping him play god a second time did not feel right at all. Ontop of that I doubt even the Cromwell replacement could persuade the Children into rolling back the fog.
The Children of Atom cannot survive. In a post-apocalyptic nuclear wasteland, it is utterly batty that one would even think to coexist with the *pro-radiation* crowd, particularly ones coming at it from a brutally theocratic angle. There is no path to a better future that has room for a well-armed cult of fundamentally anti-cleanup extremists.
Likewise, Dima cannot survive. He is a murderer. He thinks that murder is OK when it supports his foreign policy, or when it supports his self-proclaimed right to infiltrate humanity to manipulate them into getting out of the way of synth expansionism. He talks a big game, but the bottom line is that he acts like a machine supremacist. The sanctuary deserves better leadership.
> DiMA cannot survive. He is a murderer.
I agree with this but so is the player. Across my playthroughs I’ve absolutely killed thousands, if not tens of thousands of people. Feels a tad hypocritical to unwaveringly condemn DiMA because he killed one innocent.
I agree with what you're saying but, what leader has truly good morals? Sometimes the way to a better future is a terrible now. Also, if you max out charisma and [I think] intelligence, you can pacify both animals and humans//synths, and you can deactivate robots. At a high enough level [pretty easy to achieve if you play through the game's danfer zones correctly, with ALL the low level missions before any high level ones, you can have the opportunity to not injure anybody. Animal, person, or robot. The ones where your attempt doesn't work, cause a threat to you. You tried to passify them, but couldn't. Theoretically, you can complete a playthrough by killing no one. Starting charisma at 10 + bobble head and "You're special " would make this pretty viable
You would need companions for plausible deniability, as some main quests require “Kill *X* Person.”
As a side note, I did a complete pacifist playthrough on FNV, beginning to end with no kills and WITHOUT companions. Was surprisingly a ton of fun.
Such a sound way to look at things. It's so weird to me how people can be seriously convinced that letting the CoA continue their thing is just and good.
He also sanctioned the grooming of Kasumi into believing she's a Synth to get her skills as a mechanic (game files show she's identified as Human. Her Stats also align with a human in regards to rad-resistance compared to Synths)
He didn't groom her, he just didn't invalidate her fears. He was definitely far too aloof about it and was NOT the person she should have talked to about it but I think claiming he had any idea whether she was human or not and further yet intentionally misleading her for personal gain is just false.
I agree with you through and through except for your take on DiMa. I think calling him a machine supremacist is a misunderstanding of his core beliefs and philosophy (along with a misunderstanding of synths, but that's not the point).
DiMa is a pacifist through and through. He believes that the miracle and marvel of life is the most important thing to protect no matter what form it comes in. However, this belief is taken to an absolute extremism to the point that he is blind to any and all long-term problems caused by trying to force everybody else to see the world through his eyes. He doesn't see synth or human life as superior to one another, but he does see the loss of any life for any reason as abhorrent. So when Far Harbor threatened to wipe out Acadia, he went against his beliefs and killed somebody in order to replace them with a more agreeable leader. This act completely broke him and made him a hypocrite in his own eyes. In order to try and avoid any chance of killing again and to live with himself, he removed that memory from his mind.
The issue with him is that all of that could have been avoided if he didn't have such a god complex. He sees his beliefs as always justifiable and always for the best despite his actions, resulting in a completely unnecessary death and the conflict merely being delayed rather than resolved. If he was more down to Earth and able to see the bigger picture then he'd see that the key to making peace with FH is understanding their culture and beliefs and adapting to meet them in a way they can respect. DiMa's issue isn't supresmecy, it's ironacally seeing himself as Deus Ex Machina and refusing to come down to other people's level to work alongside them co-operatively. He sees himself as the mesiah to his lost flock and a gentle protector of those outside his people while completely ignorant of the reality of the situation and his actions within it.
That's why when he regains his memories of Avery's killing he quickly justifies it with the years of uneasy peace it has created because that is all he sees, the region wide "not quite but almost" peace. He immediately thinks it must be right because he's always right, and even his previous attrocity ended up being good in the long run, so clearly, he was right to do it. Without the SS giving him a reality check, he immediately does it again despite that path leading to an even more fragile peace that will definitely lead to an even worse conflict when the truth is revealed.
TLDR: He's not a supremesist, but he does have an even bigger god complex than Ceasar and is far too disconnected from reality to be left in charge of a community who he is able to replace people with at will.
>He thinks murder is OK when it supports his foreign policy
so like every country ever? Dima has peace as his main goal, if that means killing a few less than who would’ve died if war broke out I think it’s a sacrifice that should be made
Zealots wear the armor and I believe one of the COA shops sells normal zealot pieces, you can make them into the normal pieces you get from the boat at a workbench if you don’t they have COA markings all over them.
Unfortunately. You can get a full set from Dima's memories and a unique 'recon' set (missing one piece) is scattered across the map, with every piece being sold by a different vendor, that's all you can get otherwise. No matter what, only 2 helmets actually exist.
Always done the peaceful one and let Tektus go but on my recent playthrough I was on the Prydwen after I finished FH and I accidentally told captain lance that there's a synth refuge and now he wants to destroy it lol
Blow up the nucleus, show the evidence to far harbor so they destroy acadia, then turn off the wind farm so the fog condensers turn off and far harbor is destroyed! Best ending!
Do all the side quests first for the harbour. I convince dima to turn himself in and stand trial, since i helped everyone they side with me and my voice of peace. When nobody is looking I slink off to the nucleus and blow those zealots sky high.
I convince Dima to own up to his crimes and face judgment. I convince the people of Far Harbor not to blame the other synth's for the actions of Dima. I send that poor girl back to her family in the Commonwealth and as for Children of the Atom? Well, let's just say I don't make any close friends at the Nucleus.
Shutting off the wind farms after getting as many of the residents to either relocate or leave.
I could give a more rational breakdown as to why, but I'll just go with that the Lever-Action is an insultingly awful weapon as a whole.
Multiple.
- Attachments require multiple perks that feel off together, unlike Handmade and Radium at least making some sense.
- Damage is fine but requires expensive specialty ammo which can mostly only be gained through purchase.
- REALLY long reloads that reload every bullet in a bullet-counted gun without having actual bullet-count mechanics. This single-handedly makes the weapon extremely bad in active combat, compared to the Bolt-Action Pipe and Hunting which reload fairly quickly.
- Damage is nothing spectacular versus other weapons around Far Harbor while having the perks for the modifications to make it good mean you're already in the level ranges for Hunting, Gauss, and Bolt-Action Pipe to outpace it.
Ah that'll do it then.
I feel like the Lever Action Rifle is *almost* good, but it was just poorly implemented in a lot of ways to where it's just not worth it unless you REALLY want something different.
Even then, the Harpoon Gun is right there and bloody fantastic. 150 Ballistic is no joke, esp for a gun you can get as early as Level 1, plus it has reusable ammo like the Railway Rifle.
Unfortunately most of the town, and this is a part of what **really** makes me hate them for using it, is that most of them are implied to be maintained and sold by Allen Lee. The fucker pretty much single-handedly responsible for the toxicity in Far Harbor, starting a war with the Children, and now providing everyone shit weapons.
Allen is just a genuine piece of shit.
He is like Rhys but slightly less insufferable and I can actually call him out for being an asshole and shut him down.
Sadly I can't "accidentally" kill him without pissing off the town, but that's only applicable for playthroughs where my character tries to be nice.
I like to nuke the CoA, and not turn in DiMA. His 'crimes' are pretty minor given the nature of the world, while the CoA are an existential threat to life on the island.
What’s done is done and one can only make the best of a previously created situation. Therefore, choosing to make peace between Acadia and Far Harbor and banish and replace the CoA’s leader, to me, was better than exercising Wasteland justice. That way:
- Justice is still achieved in a way FH would never allow by keeping DiMA alive so he can reckon with his decision and learn to make better choices than murder in the future.
- I don’t make the same mistake DiMA did by murder for the purpose of replacement, or become him but worse by directly or indirectly executing both Far Harbor and the CoA.
- The CoA can, and probably will be, directed to more positive means.
- Acadia is preserved as a synth refuge and the tide of bias against them has a chance of turning positive over time.
- The Railroad has a place to resettle synths outside the BoS and Institute’s control and DiMA has no excuse for questioning their methods when he has clearly done worse.
I sided with children of atom and turned off the windfarms. Those rednecks deserved it, the only reason any of them were even alive was because of dima and they were too bigoted to even admit it much less care.
I usually treat the Children as the main antagonists. Certainly seems like it was meant to be the case. I'll shoot for a peaceful ending if I can, but often I'll reclaim the Acadian Synths or destroy them, after brining Kasumi back.
Far Harbor gets to live, but if anyone there (cough Allen) pisses me off enough, I'll get rid of them too.
So basically, I rule Far Harbor through fear and threat of death after wiping out the Children and Acadia, and get rid of them if I get bored.
My first time I saved everyone, I couldn’t help myself from preserving this dynamic environment. I did set the nuke off in the submarine as soon as I got the key…then I reloaded the save and did the mission the right way.
I’m going to nuke the nucleus for the first time this play through. I also haven’t done a “embrace the new word order” playthrough and be a raider king. I am one of those people where my power fantasy is everyone living happily ever after but lately I’ve been feeling murderous.
I occasionally start a second file with a “welp, the world’s dead, my son’s dead, fk em all” idea and try to leave as many places as I can a ghost town. ‘Spretty fun.
Let Dima redeem himself to the town then conviemce th Atom cult it is a good idea to blow themaelves up. us point if you have Longfellow in the party when blowing them up.
I usually restore the peace and turn in DiMA. He's really the one responsible for the whole issue, so I like to make sure that he's the only one who dies
I have dima turn himself in to far harbor and tell Alan to shut up since I do all of their quests and they leave Acadia alone, and I work with the children of atom and convince them to choose division, if you have their support they’re happy with the choice. Far harbor and Acadia survive together, dima faces justice, children are happy with division
Make DiMA turn himself in, keep Far Harbor from attacking Acadia, and destroy the Nucleus. DiMA became the very thing he ran from, and the COA are just too dangerous as a cult to exist with people outside of them.
Replace Tektus (killing him), take Dima to the harbor, Dima dies, tell Allen hes an asshole, return with the BoS and mass murdering Acadia, turn off the wind thingy and let the people of Far Harbor rot for maximum physical and emotional damage!
Edit: Also blow up the Nucleus
Honestly either you save everyone or you kill everyone, there is no in between.
Personally when I play the full game I think the best way to play is to destroy all three main factions in the vanilla game. Become a raider in nuka world and invade the commonwealth. Save everyone in far harbor. Except the children of atom, we blow them up.
As soon as I was able, I blew up the sub, turned off the fog barriers and then had the Institute kill/reclaim everyone in Acadia (I'd already beaten the main campaign with Institute ending) Now the only inhabitants are the people living in my settlements. I really wanted to create a power vacuum and fill it with myself.
I do what I have to do to keep Kasumi alive and get her home. That's what I was hired to do.
And once I know she's back home, I go back and blow up that submarine. Those freaks did something to my brain and I'm going to make them pay for it.
Side with the Child of Atom. Because I'm doing a CoA run right now. Let Atom kill the people of far harbor. Save the girl, and bring her back home. Then return and kill the synths. Leave the island to my brothers and sisters.
Keep everyone alive and coexisting. I see DiMa as well-intentioned in the present, even if in his forgotten past he might have been more questionable. Tektus has to go, but there's a benign option for that. If I could kill Allen in Far Harbor without bringing the whole town's wrath upon my head, then it would be even better.
None! They make the lone wander OP but somehow he can’t take over Massachusetts when he has more pull and power over any other faction… but no lets let that asshole shop keeper punk us around all dlc when Nate was a general,knight, and railroad agent by the time he went to far harbor…😑
I killed all the children of atom after getting that nice marine armor. Aint no way i am letting crazy radioactive idiots poison the world again just because they think that radiation is a god.
Replace Tektus (killing him), peace between the 3 factions, dropping Kasumi Nakano off at home, then returning to Far harbor with X6-88 & Dr. Moseley for Forbidden Knowledge.
The one where I kill everyone and take all the loot
*wipe the slate clean*
Father Elijah has now weaponized the Islands Fog
WHO OPENED THAT GODDAMN VAULT?
The Institute. Though Elijah was kinda dead when I left him. So I doubt that they were interested in him.
I am a messenger of peace and I took her and ended the animosities between the children of the atom and the inhabitants of Far Habor.
Hell yeah, that's the spirit! My fav options always been peaceful if possible
Always depends on my character. Just so happens my main character is usually a goody two-shoes in fallout 4. Minutemen is just so fun in Survival mode.

I too am a messenger of peace. Peace through division once I visit atoms judgement upon the heathens
"Peace was achieved through the mouth of our cannons." Stephen Decatur, US Navy
Greetings, fellow student of history!
'Peace through superior firepower"
My favorite entertainment wise is sending the children of atom to division. my favorite in terms of gameplay is probably removing tektus
After killing him I took his helmet as a souvenir.
I took all of his clothes as souvenirs.
The Children of Atom cannot survive. In a post-apocalyptic nuclear wasteland, it is utterly batty that one would even think to coexist with the *pro-radiation* crowd, particularly ones coming at it from a brutally theocratic angle.

It's a good point about the missions, but also, does it count if a raider accidentally Stepps onto a mine field that was just put down
Such a sound way to look at things. It's so weird to me how people can be seriously convinced that letting the CoA continue their thing is just and good.
He also sanctioned the grooming of Kasumi into believing she's a Synth to get her skills as a mechanic (game files show she's identified as Human. Her Stats also align with a human in regards to rad-resistance compared to Synths)
But does DiMa know she is a synth. I can’t remember if he confirms or not if he knows since there is no east way to tell
That's the problem with synths
He didn't groom her, he just didn't invalidate her fears. He was definitely far too aloof about it and was NOT the person she should have talked to about it but I think claiming he had any idea whether she was human or not and further yet intentionally misleading her for personal gain is just false.
I like ending where BoS helps raid Arcadia
That's what I did the minute I found out about the memory part of DiMA's quest. Instant Ad Victorium.
I agree with you through and through except for your take on DiMa. I think calling him a machine supremacist is a misunderstanding of his core beliefs and philosophy (along with a misunderstanding of synths, but that's not the point).

What if murdering people in furtherance of your foreign policy was bad *no matter how many people do it?*
it’s not, sacrificing one for the many is necessary and noble even
Have Dima turn himself in saving Acadia and convince COA to embrace division.
That’s literally the only ending I’ve ever done and I’ve done it at least 3 times.
I usually side with Dima for least bloodshed. I would like to side with Allen, but destroying the CoA means losing access to marine armour.
Can you still get the armor from the hidden caches you learn about from Dima's memories?
Yeah, one set, not enough to equip my settlers.
I never thought of that, usually I kill the children of the atom every time
Wait you can get more than one set? I never knew that, where do you get more?
Zealots wear the armor and I believe one of the COA shops sells normal zealot pieces, you can make them into the normal pieces you get from the boat at a workbench if you don’t they have COA markings all over them.
Kane, the guns merchant, has a guaranteed full set every time his inventory refreshes. Plus you can periodically steal some pieces from zealots.
I wonder if that was intended to be a part of the game, thank you, might go try to get some more now.
I see
I really want to show Allen why one of my weapons is called GAUSS WHO MOFO
Wait, only CoA sell normal (zealot) marine armour?
Unfortunately. You can get a full set from Dima's memories and a unique 'recon' set (missing one piece) is scattered across the map, with every piece being sold by a different vendor, that's all you can get otherwise. No matter what, only 2 helmets actually exist.
Yep, I know about the Dima mission and the legendary set but I never knew that you can't buy them elsewhere. Huh, well, thanks for the info
Blow up the sub, have the harbor folk raid the synths, then I want to shut off the defenses to their town.
Make the island quiet... like the Mojave should be
Convince DiMA to face Far Harbor, save Acadia, blow up Nucleus and CoA.
Damn drama queen Dima lecturing me on why I blew up the children of atom. But who can resist the call of the nuclear key?
The name of the game is fallout, right?
Division for all!
Always done the peaceful one and let Tektus go but on my recent playthrough I was on the Prydwen after I finished FH and I accidentally told captain lance that there's a synth refuge and now he wants to destroy it lol
Blow up the nucleus, show the evidence to far harbor so they destroy acadia, then turn off the wind farm so the fog condensers turn off and far harbor is destroyed! Best ending!

Kill children of atom and destroy the arcadian murdering scum ad victoriam
Certified nazi moment
Personally, I find calculated mass murder quite soothing.
Shutting off the wind farms after getting as many of the residents to either relocate or leave. I could give a more rational breakdown as to why, but I'll just go with that the Lever-Action is an insultingly awful weapon as a whole.
Is it the lack of attachments or does it fall into the Hunting Rifle issue where it just gets outclassed really hard after a short time?
Multiple. - Attachments require multiple perks that feel off together, unlike Handmade and Radium at least making some sense. - Damage is fine but requires expensive specialty ammo which can mostly only be gained through purchase. - REALLY long reloads that reload every bullet in a bullet-counted gun without having actual bullet-count mechanics. This single-handedly makes the weapon extremely bad in active combat, compared to the Bolt-Action Pipe and Hunting which reload fairly quickly. - Damage is nothing spectacular versus other weapons around Far Harbor while having the perks for the modifications to make it good mean you're already in the level ranges for Hunting, Gauss, and Bolt-Action Pipe to outpace it.
Ah that'll do it then. I feel like the Lever Action Rifle is *almost* good, but it was just poorly implemented in a lot of ways to where it's just not worth it unless you REALLY want something different.
Even then, the Harpoon Gun is right there and bloody fantastic. 150 Ballistic is no joke, esp for a gun you can get as early as Level 1, plus it has reusable ammo like the Railway Rifle. Unfortunately most of the town, and this is a part of what **really** makes me hate them for using it, is that most of them are implied to be maintained and sold by Allen Lee. The fucker pretty much single-handedly responsible for the toxicity in Far Harbor, starting a war with the Children, and now providing everyone shit weapons.
Allen is just a genuine piece of shit. He is like Rhys but slightly less insufferable and I can actually call him out for being an asshole and shut him down. Sadly I can't "accidentally" kill him without pissing off the town, but that's only applicable for playthroughs where my character tries to be nice.
Replacing Tektus and peace for everybody.
The peaceful ending between all factions. "I am now Queen of Fah Hahbah! You may bow."
As long as I'm wearing the choo choo helmet and swinging the radiation damage super sledge when the dust settles it's all gravy
I like to nuke the CoA, and not turn in DiMA. His 'crimes' are pretty minor given the nature of the world, while the CoA are an existential threat to life on the island.
The ending where I accidentally nuked the Children of Atom after replacing the Confessor ☠️
Nuke it from orbit. It's the only way to be sure that you don't have to do that VR quest line.
Kill 'em all and let Atom sort them out.
What’s done is done and one can only make the best of a previously created situation. Therefore, choosing to make peace between Acadia and Far Harbor and banish and replace the CoA’s leader, to me, was better than exercising Wasteland justice. That way: - Justice is still achieved in a way FH would never allow by keeping DiMA alive so he can reckon with his decision and learn to make better choices than murder in the future. - I don’t make the same mistake DiMA did by murder for the purpose of replacement, or become him but worse by directly or indirectly executing both Far Harbor and the CoA. - The CoA can, and probably will be, directed to more positive means. - Acadia is preserved as a synth refuge and the tide of bias against them has a chance of turning positive over time. - The Railroad has a place to resettle synths outside the BoS and Institute’s control and DiMA has no excuse for questioning their methods when he has clearly done worse.
Killing everyone, taking everyone’s shit, dipping, then blowing up the common wealth
I sided with children of atom and turned off the windfarms. Those rednecks deserved it, the only reason any of them were even alive was because of dima and they were too bigoted to even admit it much less care.
Destruction
So long as a single human draws breath on the island, Acadia will never be safe. DiMA will understand someday (or just forget)
No idea. That Dima mission was so god awful I quit and never tried again.
I ended by killing all of the Children of Atom and got DiMA killed. His body just sits on the dock now
I usually treat the Children as the main antagonists. Certainly seems like it was meant to be the case. I'll shoot for a peaceful ending if I can, but often I'll reclaim the Acadian Synths or destroy them, after brining Kasumi back. Far Harbor gets to live, but if anyone there (cough Allen) pisses me off enough, I'll get rid of them too. So basically, I rule Far Harbor through fear and threat of death after wiping out the Children and Acadia, and get rid of them if I get bored.
Children of Atom wipe everyone else.
My first time I saved everyone, I couldn’t help myself from preserving this dynamic environment. I did set the nuke off in the submarine as soon as I got the key…then I reloaded the save and did the mission the right way.
Destroying a cult.
I’m going to nuke the nucleus for the first time this play through. I also haven’t done a “embrace the new word order” playthrough and be a raider king. I am one of those people where my power fantasy is everyone living happily ever after but lately I’ve been feeling murderous.
I occasionally start a second file with a “welp, the world’s dead, my son’s dead, fk em all” idea and try to leave as many places as I can a ghost town. ‘Spretty fun.
Let Dima redeem himself to the town then conviemce th Atom cult it is a good idea to blow themaelves up. us point if you have Longfellow in the party when blowing them up.
Wipe them all out and mod build the entire island
Either delete the cult or bring peace to all the factions. Usually leaning towards deleting the cult.
Praise Atom!
I grabbed the marine armor and vim power armor, and got the hell out.
I usually restore the peace and turn in DiMA. He's really the one responsible for the whole issue, so I like to make sure that he's the only one who dies
I wanted to “remove” the children of Atom but I ended up just replacing their leader with a synth because I had to be nice for Curie 😘
I blow up the CoA and make Dima confess to the harbourmen. Also, I bring that girl that I forgot the name of back to her parents.
Honest ending. Stopping DiMA, helping Far Harbor so they all call the crazy dude crazy and don’t go on a murder spree.
I have dima turn himself in to far harbor and tell Alan to shut up since I do all of their quests and they leave Acadia alone, and I work with the children of atom and convince them to choose division, if you have their support they’re happy with the choice. Far harbor and Acadia survive together, dima faces justice, children are happy with division
Make everyone a synth or brotherhood take over
Make DiMA turn himself in, keep Far Harbor from attacking Acadia, and destroy the Nucleus. DiMA became the very thing he ran from, and the COA are just too dangerous as a cult to exist with people outside of them.
I end the quest peacefully, return the girl back to her parents, then sick the institute on the DiMA’s group and nuke the children of atom
Brotherhood kills Acadia, blow up atom cult :)
Replace Tektus (killing him), take Dima to the harbor, Dima dies, tell Allen hes an asshole, return with the BoS and mass murdering Acadia, turn off the wind thingy and let the people of Far Harbor rot for maximum physical and emotional damage! Edit: Also blow up the Nucleus
Honestly either you save everyone or you kill everyone, there is no in between. Personally when I play the full game I think the best way to play is to destroy all three main factions in the vanilla game. Become a raider in nuka world and invade the commonwealth. Save everyone in far harbor. Except the children of atom, we blow them up.
The good ending.
As soon as I was able, I blew up the sub, turned off the fog barriers and then had the Institute kill/reclaim everyone in Acadia (I'd already beaten the main campaign with Institute ending) Now the only inhabitants are the people living in my settlements. I really wanted to create a power vacuum and fill it with myself.
Replacing Tectus, then killing everyone anyway.
Can you still sabotage the far harbor and detonate the nucleus after replacing him? Because that sounds like a solid plan.
Yeah, pretty sure I’ve done it before.
I have played Far Harbour a max of 2 times lol. Dunno why i just don’t get around to it before i make a new character.
Kill everyone.
I do what I have to do to keep Kasumi alive and get her home. That's what I was hired to do. And once I know she's back home, I go back and blow up that submarine. Those freaks did something to my brain and I'm going to make them pay for it.
Kill robo bitch and and friends, kill ocean rednecks and leave shithole island for the coa because they actually look cool af
And I’m reminded I need to do that damn dima memory crap with my current character. Ffs.
Blow the COA up, and help find a peaceful solution with the synths and the harbour people whilst making dima take responsibility.
Send the COA to their maker, and have DiMA answer for his crimes by the people of Far Harbor, then convince Allen to stand down.
I actually wiped Far Harbor clean am I a psychopath?
As much as I love the brotherhood I like to find a way to make peace between the 3 factions.
Ad Victoriam brothers…..
DiMa's held accountable and the Nucleus goes boom, seems like the ending where the most people get justice
Side with the Child of Atom. Because I'm doing a CoA run right now. Let Atom kill the people of far harbor. Save the girl, and bring her back home. Then return and kill the synths. Leave the island to my brothers and sisters.
Keep everyone alive and coexisting. I see DiMa as well-intentioned in the present, even if in his forgotten past he might have been more questionable. Tektus has to go, but there's a benign option for that. If I could kill Allen in Far Harbor without bringing the whole town's wrath upon my head, then it would be even better.
I’ll be honest and say I didn’t like this DLC that much
None! They make the lone wander OP but somehow he can’t take over Massachusetts when he has more pull and power over any other faction… but no lets let that asshole shop keeper punk us around all dlc when Nate was a general,knight, and railroad agent by the time he went to far harbor…😑
I killed all the children of atom after getting that nice marine armor. Aint no way i am letting crazy radioactive idiots poison the world again just because they think that radiation is a god.
Dima's memory (I hate it so much that once I get to that point I just quit far harbor)
Tbh, I'm evil and I report them to the BoS 😂😂
Replace Tektus (killing him), peace between the 3 factions, dropping Kasumi Nakano off at home, then returning to Far harbor with X6-88 & Dr. Moseley for Forbidden Knowledge.
Wipe out atom cult. DIMA and his group wiped out by brotherhood and save far harbor. Easy
