I hate Esme and her annoying cooking task

[1984]

IMO she is by far the worst daily there is

I think the character is annoying on its own. Her task is annoying too

Of course I do not do expeditions anymore, after I done each one of them once and explored everything. Not worth it.

But after 2 interactions with Esme I will hate and remember her forever

I wonder how you guys found that out. Were you curious or was it by mistake? Or you read some guide?

I thought the quest would just fail and you would get no batteries. God how soft people have become if developers have to reward you for even the failed quests

I found out simply by failing the first time I did it because I couldn't find the pepper.

IDKW but I do her quest every day, and enjoy it.

[Dezktop]

if the quest failed and you didnt get you participation medal youd still be mad tho don't lie

[Deamo]

I swear Esme gives me a bit of the side eye when I start beating my mea …… er venson infront of her.

oh no you burned the soup

+ 25

this is the easiest of all the tasks.

1. start soup task and stir once
2. get the other two tasks
3. complete the other two tasks
4. soup task should have finished ready to collect and give to one of the two npc's

simples as there is no difference between success and failure of the soup task...

Well, if you still need Raider/Settler reputation there is a difference, so it's worth doing if you still need faction rep

So, no one has mentioned the poor organization skills of the kitchen staff. Let's put salt in one area and pepper in another so people can run around in circles while the stew burns. I've worked in a few resorts in real life and I would never see this level of disorganization.

Now that I have maxed rep with both factions, her stew is going to be burnt. Also, I'm an herbivore and get zero benefits from the stew.

lol expedition is dead already, no one bothers to do the dailies anymore so no one is hosting any. It was alright for 1st playthrough, but anything after that, the expedition is just a longer trash fetch quest of a daily op.

[Arcanix]

If your game is to mooch off others hosting, then youre doing something wrong.

Expeditions is good. Can always flesh it out later. As long as Bethesda add content with open ends they can always do that.

The entire Responder Refuge is horrific, but I keep trying to convince myself that it isn't what it seems-though I suspect I'm just deceiving myself.

Incorrect.

I host at least one expedition per day, and participate in at least one additional expedition.

Sometimes with friends, sometimes with randoms.

And I am always seeing expedition teams pop up.

Those idiots can never get things in the right place.

Yep, just another case of NPCs being useless without the player around.

Darth Traya said it best: "If you seek to aid everyone that suffers in the galaxy, you will only weaken yourself... and weaken them. It is the internal struggles, when fought and won on their own, that yield the strongest rewards."

EDIT: Just wanted to add I also hate these kinds of quests that don't think about the larger world they're in. Think about this one, you are tasked with providing stew to a representative that will then take that back to their settlement... how?

Just try it. Walk from Whitespring to Crater or Foundation, bearing in mind you are a regular human and not a super powered Vault Dweller. You have to stick to well established paths, avoid the most dangerous areas and provided food/drink as you will die. It's not reasonable to think that goal can ever be achieved so the whole task is rubbish.

Or just give them Psycho Stew.
