what camp ally would you recommend getting?

[TTVChosenRodent]

i've been using settler wanderer for a while now, i kept her around because of her daily quest. but to be honest, her repeated dialogue (mainly her HUMMING) gets super annoying.

i've been saving and thinking about spending 4k gold bullion for a new ally. personally i don't really see the need for the daily quests for legendaries anymore. i get more than enough through enemies, events and expeditions.

what i'm really looking for is a good buff they could offer. i'm considering Xerxo for his reduction of caps spent when fast travelling, though that might not even be worth it... it's really easy IMO to rack up caps even when fast travelling around constantly.

what ally do you guys use, and which ones do you think are worth getting? i'm eager to read your opinions, and they will be much appreciated!

I'd take Adrienne (OVERSEER). But you can't have her at your camp so I just hang out at her place playing the piano and talking to the Butler.

i switch between camps with:
nuka cola guy and give him cherry.
joey bello mainly for his buff for daily ops
the dorky supermutant that sells comics and rarish meat and a str+weight buff
try googling the wiki, the others have their own stuff, essentially the new ones are better.
only thing im not seeing is the food filling thing, im losing that faster than it cycles.

All the allies are pretty much pointless, You should look at what they can do to help you enjoy the game such as the bonuses you can get. I look mainly for utility (shops) they offer since the bonuses are a task to maintain. My commando build uses Sam Nguyen due to the contents in his store, he's perfect for weapon crafting such as springs and screws.

John Carpenter, that you? (I know he plays the game...)

A thing about allies: They are what causes traders to visit your camp, no ally, no traders.

Daphne. Either of her buffs have perks that are helpful but you wouldn't take normally.

Adds a bit more flavor to gameplay.

Angry Turtle recently did an updated guide on Allies, I recommend watching it to pick the one you like. None of the buffs are particularly spectacular, but they're all good on some level, so I go with the personalities I like.

I've tried them all. Some get pretty annoying. Some have good quests and some loot and things. Getting A.T.H.E.N.A was great and love her coming to my camp but when the Astronaut said " I could never have imaged falling in LOve with someone like You' had to ditch Her. I'm 6 foot hairy Mole with fleas-Her tastes are way to low for me.

Nuka slurper ghoul!

Give him Nuka Cranberry and get extra XP. Give him any Nuka Cola and get various bonuses. Way better than anyone giving out fetch missions.

Those traders have anything unique? Not like there's any shortage of trade.

They can, I've bought a Bobby pin box off one (rare item that doesn't become bobby pins and can be displayed). I'm not sure if it's because another player sold it to them or they have a chance to generate it.

Generally they aren't great as they are the same traders you can encounter around the map. They can be convenient to sell stuff to.

But... (There's always one of these...) your turrets may not like them...

Pretty much generic stuff that's in abundance everywhere. And you can't even sell to them.

can i refresh the buffs as much as i want, or are the buffs a once daily thing? i cant seem to find this information anywhere.

i checked it out. a very helpful dude. i like that he doesnt really waste time in his videos and he is very informative

Any romance character, 3hr xp buff from lovers embrace

I like only these allies who gives Daily quest, like Forager, Beckett or Raider Punk,
because then you get Legendary stuff, scrip, sometimes rare weapons etc
