Would it be advisable to find an animal box and save scumming 'till you find dogmeat or the parrot? Is it possible to use the plus free gift more than once? No, it doesn't matter. You might want to wait until you get at least one attack before you skip again, though. To be safe, not sure if it actually matters. I dropped $20 to get the pets. Well worth the time saved to me.

But sounds like whatever it takes, this pet is needed to save tonnes of time Them Raider attacks are a pain to grind for one. I have done like 4 in a few hours @Grindroid Will this work for Quests as well, so the pet goes with someone on a Quest, when quest is complete it counts as 3, im sure there are quest objectives?

Honestly, no idea. I didn't obtain the pets until I was going for this trophy. I did the 100 quests one at a time. Sad but happy for others to hear it works for the quests though. That grind was mind-numbing. Edited June 15, 2018 by Grindroid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is mad, i've just been on wiki hoping for an objective list and found one. Turns out there are objectives for everything almost, even quests complete. Didnt see one for successful Raider attack defences though Maybe just triples everything offscreen, mad really Yea, shame for you on that, i've done on a few and am not looking forward to it This pet looks like a must have, probably works for majority of Trophies EDIT. Just gone through Trophy list, seems to be about 25 Trophies this may reduce the workload on by 3. Hopefully works on the kill 500 enemies Im going to figure out how to get this early on, and see if it.works on them all.

Gefro-On-Defro Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 If I buy all the pets, will they be bought for every new game I start, or just the game save I buy them on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything is locked to the save it is redeemed on, thus you will have to redo and rebuy everything from scratch if you start a new Vault. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only your current vault. Same with the lunchboxes. If I were doing this from scratch, I would get the pets and halt my population for raider only attacks, and do everything else requiring pop afterwards. There's still stuff you can do in the meantime with low pop. Edited June 15, 2018 by Grindroid 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBubaknight Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 I've tried to save scum, but it doesn't work. The drop is set after you have obtained the box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, it determines the loot inside once the lunchbox or pet carrier enters ur collection tab The game also saves as soon as u open it, only way around to keep it in the collection is to save backup. Even then its a waste as its already determoned anyway Anyway.....may be a way around it..... You complete a objective that has a pet carrier as a reward, then before you claim the reward, so before it enters ur collection, u save backup Now u just keep restoring the save, claiming the reward and then opening it. Hopefully that will work, and im sure I got a pet from a early on objective so sjould be simple to do Thats the only way I can see around it, if it works Or just buy some pets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nyonmyan Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 Make sure to ignore the stupid guide and stop your Vault development at 29 dwellers. 29 dwellers pull a "random" disaster from fire/roaches/raiders pool. Raiders come quite frequently at this point. At 30-31 dwellers you start pulling mutant moles, making raiders far less frequent, not to mention that moles wreck shit. If you will continue your Vault development you will get radscorpions, feral ghouls and deathclaws. There is also a hardcore mode in this game. If you enable it you will be getting more attacks, but the amount of dwellers you can have before moles start appearing will be lower. And thanks for the pet tip! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackTorito Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 I have noticed when I first started the vault I got like 3 raiders in minutes, now it has been getting lower. Survival might be the way to go, the problem is the risk it takes I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baird_9965 Posted June 15, 2018 Author Share Posted June 15, 2018 I didn't notice that the pets actually help, I've had the 2x objective bird since the beginning and never had it equipped lol. I played for 5 hours yesterday continuously, no raider attacks or incidents whatsoever. This morning, deleted my game, backed up my save, re-installed the game and I got 2 raider attacks in under 10 minutes. I'm still confused by this whole thing. Only 29 more!

I been playing around and there is a weekly quest that rewards a pet carrier, it has a level 14 or something requirement., cant remember name I had to save backup BEFORE picking it up, when I did that, the pet would change. Save scumming AFTER collecting it, even before even accepting the reward from the dweller on return to the vault, would always give same pet, only name would change So maybe best to get quests available asap, then timeskip till weekly quest shows pet reward 1 hour ago, BlackTorito said: I have noticed when I first started the vault I got like 3 raiders in minutes, now it has been getting lower.

Dwellers consume more resources meaning you will be spending more time and money building Probably best to just do the quests and raider attacks at same time as they can both be done at a low dweller count and are both grindy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I eventually got back to 60+ I got a deathclaw attack straight away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScreamsRain Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 So, if you have more than 29 dwellers but you lower the count letting some of them die, raider attacks would be more frequent again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nyonmyan Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 Yeah, killing dwellers removes the mole rats from incident pool. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how my guide is stupid, but if you have suggestions on how to improve it please feel free to mention them to me and I will take them into consideration. I feel like I described the fact that Raider attacks happen more often early on quite well. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its GAME SHOW GAUNTLET and it is repeatable, its a weekly Quest, probably begins weekly from the day u first create the Quest room The weekly quests and rewards are random as well. You get 2 quests in the pool, GAME SHOW GAUNTLET and VAUT TEC EXPERIMENT For the GAME SHOW GAUNTLET, there are about 7 different versions, each has a slightly different reward and level requirement. Most the time, the version appears that rewards a lucnhbox, or cola bottles, but seems to be a 10% chance that the versions with a pet or mr handy as a reward wil appear These are available right from the start when the quest room is first created Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gladiator995 Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 In regards to Raiders and population size, I've just had two raider attacks in the space of 10 minutes with a population of 56 so I'm going to say it's extremely randomised when they show up. I currently have two high charisma dwellers on the radio station but I don't think that really makes a difference. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just have a much lower chance of getting raiders when you compete with everything else. With 29 pop your only possibilities are fires, roaches, and raiders instead of adding molerats, ghouls, scorpions, and deathclaws into the mix.

Jason-d-b Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 (edited) I just got this trophy and I MIGHT have a way to make incidents (not just raiders) occur slightly faster. Do the Poppy and Cappy side quest that makes them show up at your vault. Skip one day with the time skip. This should make them immediately walk to the vault when you go back to the game. About 4 out of 5 times I had an incident occur when they were in the vault all the way until about 10 seconds after the vault door closes when they left. If an incident doesn't occur within 10 seconds of them leaving I just skipped another day. I was at 39 dwellers and had a radio station built but it was NOT broadcasting and I got a raider attack about every 10 minutes on average. I saw no difference when it was broadcasting. This was still a grind but I found it made attacks happen faster than just sitting there waiting idle. Edited June 16, 2018 by Jason-d-b 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
