How to get back Fidel?

[MACIORELLA]

He left my team and I cant contract him as he said I dont do too many killings....

[Sebcain]

I think he may be bugged as I've not heard of a single way or person to bring him back on...

[Aegmar]

Yeah, he is a Psycho...

Just don't use Fidel, Larry (sober or not) and Barry are fine as Demo-Experts, Wolf and Fauda can at least spot mines (but not always disarm them)..., Nails is another option but i think he won't join when you have Raider and Red won't join when you have Buns..., and he is slow af too.

I found Barry and Larry are actually more than enough in the Demolitions Department.

Yes. And you could also add Meltdown and Fauda on the list, when it comes to using heavy weapons.

Fidel is a fun lad to bring for one or gigs, but the days just seem to go by so fast.

How do you play this guy Fidel anyways? After perks and stats he seems like an in your face grenadier which is kinda counterintuitive. I've equipped him with a shotgun, grenades and fist and gonna see how he does. Before I had him at mid range like Barry, but he's got some high damage up close it looks like.

Most mercs have some non-synergistic traits or perks, it's not just Fidel, possibly to give the player some more options instead of only cookie-cutter builds. I don't really know how Hand-to-Hand works when not actually using melee weapons of your own, but I guess it's just an unarmed attack? He has pretty low dex though. And at least he has decent perk choices, but the real challenge is managing to keep him in your team to begin with.

I've had the same issue with Fidel and Reaper. Fidel gets bored when waiting too long for others in operations such as militia training/repair/scouting.

Reaper will suddenly have a spiritual awakening and leaves and never comes back

Yeah they are more or less for fun as I can tell you some of my merc that I had from level 1 are already better. But some of the elite mercs have them super perks like shadow - has unique camouflage etc so its interesting to have him (too poor atm anyway).

Then we need mods that prevent mercs from breaching their contracts... which should be base game. A merc that leaves is asking to never be hired anymore. All that a merc has is his own word. If he betrays it, he is done.
