Ndavis55 Posted November 3, 2010 Share Posted November 3, 2010 (edited) You only need to obtain Raul who is found in black mountain prison. Once you have him as your companion tell him you need to split ways have him return to his shack. Found north of Novac. Go to his shack and he should be in there. Start a conversation and tell him to tag along then immediately talk to him again and tell him to split ways. Then repeat the step of telling him to follow you and dismiss him 3 more times. Then once you have done that 4 or 5 times have him repair an item and the achievement should pop. I have had 4 friends try this with 100% success so good luck. Also I did this with having only recruiting Boone none of the others. Note: This is for the achievement only you do not get use of the other companions.

bonojox Posted November 3, 2010 Share Posted November 3, 2010 Hey nice one. Gonna try this as I fuc#ed up the quest with Boone. He went all funny cos I just chose anyone to wear the beret and walk across so he could shoot them. He got all pissed off about it and wouldn't join me as a companion so I shot the whinny bastard. Try this glitch later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CyberPunch83 Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 Hmm... just tried this, didn't work, though I may have screwed it because I've also recruited and ditched Raul once already, Cass and Veronica. Not to mention I had ED-E, but he's gone since the Vault 22 explosion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbear. Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 Original poster: Have you installed the game update? Or is this a glitch that works with the game update? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ndavis55 Posted November 4, 2010 Author Share Posted November 4, 2010 I have every update I did this before accessing the strip it was almost a fresh game with very little done quest wise. But I know of a couple of friends who were on the last questline who were able to receive the achievement this way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phate LLD Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 Thanks for the find, didn't feel like making a new character since on each my files i've killed one of the companions before recruiting. Just a note, if you've tried the OP's method but still doesn't work, keep having Raul join and leave after he's repaired an item. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

halofan1989 Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 Worked like a charm for me. I didn't even have to ask him to join me/repair an item on the 5th time, the Achievement just popped when I talked to him. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vein 666 Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 Just worked for me too. Many thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McGoogles Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 I recruited everyone except for ED-E and got my achievement still. The last person that I recruited was Arcade Gannon and it popped up unexpectedly. This achievement seems to be a little buggy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schulterjon Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 I can verify this works, saved my about 10 hours gameplay cause Cass' mission was glitched because I did "There stands the tall grass" before "You can depend on me" and "Heartache by the numbers" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeadOnArrival19 Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 Worked like a dream mate. Done it first time very happy ad I was dreading doing it on another playthrough, as I also had the cass glitch even when I reloaded a previous save. Many thanks.

ZingZitang Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 This is Very nice for the People who got Screwed, but its unfortunate that whores will probably just use this to get it done. Their loss I say. I had a really great time Exploring and Discovering all 8 of my companions. In turn, doing their quests and learning about them.

PrinceOfThralls Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 Thank you very much OP. I simply had to dismiss him 6 or 7 times and the achievement poped up. No need to wait till he is in his shack, no need to repair item...good thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No need to wait till he is in his shack, no need to repair item...good thread. This is what worked for me also. As soon as I left the prison room after recruiting him, I dismissed and recruited seven more times and it popped up several seconds later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTDog666 Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 Very buggy, I found and recruited all 8 and got nothing, haven't patched it, never experienced a glitch at all until this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pieville Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 Just tried this and it worked, not that I needed to, I only need to recruit one more companion anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
