Favourite companions
So what's everyone favourite(s) companions?
Personally I was surprised how effective Codsworth was on the early levels, Dogmeat is quite good to find items and hold down enemies. I found Curie and Piper kinda useless, I like Cait only to use her to pick locks when I don't have the skill to do it but also seems useless in combat. I enjoyed Deacon with my stealthy character and his remarks made me chuckle. Didn't use Valentine much, paladin Danse,, X6-88 or Preston Garvey and never really used Hancock or Macgready. Current character is using Strong and I'm quite enjoying him.




Hancock was nice, I like the feel of him. Iused piper for companion peek for my charisma build, and sense for the perk and power armor.
I went with Dogmeat, mainly because he doesn't say anything. It drives me nuts hearing the same half dozen canned conversations over an over.
When it came time for the Glowing Sea, I switched to Strong, because I wanted his extra smashy smashy and carry weight. I had no intention of returning to the Glowing Sea if I could avoid it.
When I was done with the Glowing Sea, I found I was really ok with having Strong, so I've kept him through the end. Plus, I give him all legendary weapons that have+X% damage to super mutants cause it makes me laugh.
Lol nice. I'm starting to enjoy Strong company as well, specially with my current character which is a "bit" evil
Nick Valentine has the best quests (The 3 Detective Quests) him and Deacon are the best for actual companionship. For Firepower, Danse is the best way to go. He's killed the Castle Mirelurk Queen in under 20s without anyone else's assistance. For romancebles, Pipers the best because she's the only human female, for males then it'd be Maccready.
Cait is also human, well kinda lol she was actually the first one I romanced when I started fallout 4.
Lemme rephrash what I said, Piper's the only human, not slightly evil person.
Hey Cait is not evil, just misunderstood :P
Lemme rephrash what I said, Piper's the only human, not addicted to drugs and murder person.
Well for the better part yeah but she changes after her quest, will start judging you for taking chems.
i think the person who you where talking to deleted their comments trying to make you look like an idiot
I really liked Deacon with his witty commentary. There was never a dull moment although i am regretting killing him for the institute
Dog Meat !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yeah I love Dogmeat! Doesn't judge your every action lol
Automatrons
I dont have the dlc yet, how effective are the robot companions?
WAY more than regular ones, like look at this, and the robot doesn't even have hammer saws
As soon as I got Nick Valentine I sticked with him as much as possible. I found him most interesting, funny and a pleasure to be around. Whenever I switched companions I felt something was missing.
