Skippy problem

[Booba]

Does anyone has a solution for fixing the Skippy issue?

I want to keep Skippy in Stone-Cold mode, so I've chose pacifist mode at the start.

Since then, i have made over 50 kills (make sure they are killed by shooting them 1 or 2 times after they've downed) and not wearing the non-lethal mode or having legendary short circuit, loaded several saves, waited for 36 in game hours, did the unequipped and equipped then waited for few minutes several times yet still not getting Skippy to initiate the conversation to change mode. Getting seriously frustrated here, i also cannot drop/dismantle/put it on the wall Skippy.

Please somebody help me

Thanks in advanced

Use it normally and the hidden mission will move on on its own.

How long do i have to use it normally ? I've been playing on Hard difficulty and Skippy doesn't scale with level anymore and thus using it has been very difficult and also the gun's damage keep on change, I've seen three very different damage numbers on the gun.

I put it in stone cold killer mode then install a Pax mod. No messing around changing modes.

If you are running anything that adds damage other than skippy's bullets the incapacitations or kills might not be counting. In older versions you needed to do the damage with skippy directly not with anything added (Example: Legendary short circuit quickhack) If an additional source was there the kill would not count to the counter. I don't know if that has been changed in 1.5 might help to remove any thing that adds effects to your shots tho.

Don’t finish them off. That makes them not count. Just down them and move on.

Well, tried everything.

Non-lethal kills, making sure I not running any additional damage, waited in game for few days. Still Skippy remains as it is.

I did some extensive research, apparently Skippy doesn't change mode now ? can someone please confirm this. and also how to i get Skippy out of my inventory.

I did this quest a few days ago, I ended up having to just walk around and wait for him to talk but it did take quite a while for it to pop

he definitely does change modes though

[Booba]

Do you need to have him equipped to change modes ? can i put him in my backpack and use other weapon instead ?

I kept him in a weapon slot the whole time just in case no idea if it is required

thanks you all, the retarded gun finally talked to me and switched mode.

I don't know how exactly to trigger the mode switch conversation, basically after all them nonsense (100+ confirmed kills, 50+ down but not killed, waited total of 2 weeks in-game, unequipped and equipped Skippy many times, make sure all additional damage mods has been removed) then i made 5 more kills, waited 4 more days and i had Skippy in hand and ran around for few seconds. Then, I've noticed i couldn't skip time when i opened the menu waited for another 5 seconds Skippy finally talked me and switch mode.

As I said, put skippy in stone cold killer mode when you get it and put a Pax into a mod slot, no messing around with the other mode for all those kills. It stays in stone cold killer mode forever.
