Brambledamble Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 (edited) If you reach maximum affinity with a companion, you will get a special perk. For Nick Valentine, Curie, MacCready and Cait's perk you will also have to complete an additional quest first. Note that there is some sort of hidden "cooldown" to specific events like lockpicking or upgrading weapons/armor. Just do it once, teleport to another location, teleport back and do it again to bypass the cooldown. Cait Perk: Trigger Rush - Action Points regenerate faster if your Health is below 25 percent. Increase affinity: make selfish or violent dialogue choices, drink alcohol, pick locks (dungeons & owned), pickpocket, walk around naked Codsworth Perk: Robot Sympathy - You receive +10 Damage Resistance against robot energy weapons. Increase affinity: make generous or nice dialogue choices, modify weapons and armor, heal Dogmeat, deliver quest items Curie Perk: Combat Medic - Once per day you heal 100 Hit Points if your Health falls below 10 percent. Increase affinity: make nice/mean/peaceful dialogue choices, heal Dogmeat, deliver quest items Paladin Danse Perk: Know your Enemy - You deal +20 percent more damage against Feral Ghouls, Super Mutants and Synths. Increase affinity: make nice or violent dialogue choices, enter Power Armor, enter Vertibird, modify weapons and armor Dogmeat no perk Deacon Perk: Cloak & Dagger - You receive +40 percent Stealth Boy duration and deal +20 percent more sneak attack damage. Increase affinity: make nice or mean dialogue choices, deliver quest items, hack terminals, heal Dogmeat, pick locks (dungeons & owned), speech success (more caps) Hancock Perk: Isodoped - At 250 rads or higher you get criticals 20 percent faster.

JuSt BLaZe Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 Nice, I maxed out Codsworth, Piper, Valentine, MacCready and Cait. Mainly because of their perks. Probably won't continue with the others, maybe Preston...maybe. Gonna hump back to Piper and dress her all day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JuSt BLaZe Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 Did you find an easy way for Piper? I'm still dragging her around. What you mean by that? Oh you mean 100%? Well I only focused on two things during all quests. Get a positive conversation done, don't use rude options and lockpick a lot. That's how I did it.

Just do it once, teleport to another location, teleport back and do it again to bypass the cooldown. Much Easier just to quicksave, and then load that save back up. Paladin Danse Perk: Know your Enemy - You deal +20 percent more damage against Feral Ghouls, Super Mutants and Synths. Increase affinity: make nice or violent dialogue choices, enter Power Armor, enter Vertibird, modify weapons and armor From what I have read, it is impossible to max affinity with Paladin Danse until after you have completed the mission Blind Betrayal.

FXH Reaper Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 Much Easier just to quicksave, and then load that save back up. Can you elaborate? do I quick save and then do he action or save after doing something they like to take the cool down off? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpinelesS Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 Can you elaborate? do I quick save and then do he action or save after doing something they like to take the cool down off? Do the action, get the like, quick save, load quick save. Next time you do the action, you will once again get the like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for that, I'm currently running with strong and its pissing me off how he hates one of the most useful abilities in Fallout. Yeah he even hates the awful dogmeat exploit. Can never bring myself to use it myself, but if your wondering what it is: Take a small location (red rocket for example) and send all your companions there. Make Dogmeat your companion. Go to red rocket and Shoot dogmeat until he falls down. Use Stimpack on Dogmeat. Quicksave, load and repeat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LJParnell Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 For some of the companions is says you can increase their affinity by donating items. Not that it is a big deal, but does anyone know what that means? I have been in a couple of churches (like the Diamond City church) and don't see any donate option. I am just not sure what this is or how to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am just not sure what this is or how to do it. Pretty sure its referring to random encounters (though I honestly don't know for sure). Every now and then you will run into someone who wants water, or radaway, or possibly something else.

exorr Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 Sheffield is missing from this list. I got him as a companion after giving him a Nuka Cola and paying him to work for me. Anyone have info on what he likes/dislikes and his perk (if there is one)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rye007 Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 He doesn't have a perk fella as he isn't a companion....he is someone u can send to a settlement, think it was from a miscellaneous quest... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
