vault 79 raid
Who to do the raid with? Settlers or Raiders? Who is without bugs? Or most fun? Or most exciting rewards?

Raiders has a better chance of bugging out. But gives you the unique weapon Slug Buster.

I was told it doesn't matter and glitches in the same spot. It took several tries before the game decided to let the quest continue.

The Raiders and Settlers have two different methods of breaching the vault but once you get inside it's pretty much the same.
Robots, turrets, fixing the pipes.
From my experience Raiders can bug out in two different spots one spot requiring multiple restarts, the other can progress by re-entering the elevator and returning.
IIRC Raiders give you a fashionable outfit.

Before you finish the quest, I suggest you look what the gold vendors in foundation or bunker have for sale, that you really want or get reputation up on both sides.

If i recall right then you have less options for dailys and would have abit longer to max out the reputations.
If Im wrong then just dissregard my suggestion.

Besides, you can allways make a new character and try out both. :)

You can get Slug Busters from Mutated Party Packs now so you won't really miss anything special if you do the heist with Foundation. Raider heist is more prone to bug but personally think it's much better and way funnier than Foundation heist, Ra-Ra and Gail bantering Johnny is pure gold. Also with Raiders you don't need to destroy Motherlode, for some reason I really like those things.

Can you do both quests and decide then who to back?

Do both quest lines until you get both "side with crater/foundation" as your next quests. Then you can pick who to raid with.

At the end of the raid you have the choice of how to split the rewards between the factions, regardless of which side you raided with.

At that point, you will get reputation based on how you did the split. But while you may get more reputation from one faction or the other. It doesn't matter because you can grind both sides up to ally. Your choice just makes one faction faster.

To be absolutely safe the bugs of the raiders version of the raid arent quest stopping like the bug for the Catalyst main BOS quest?

Yeah, like BizarreMan said, do both quest lines to a point where game says you must choose the side. After you've chosen the faction it's not possible to do any of the quests for the other side anymore.

They aren't exactly quest stopping but might require some server hopping and restarting the heist before it bothers to work. It has never worked for me on first try and had to server hop few times but it has been utter pain in the behind for some players.

Ok thanks for the answer. Server hop I can do.

The Settlers version seems like unfinished content. Just before the breech you are sent off on a useless errand that seems like it should have consequences, but doesn't...

Then in the vault another choice seems like it should have consequences but doesn't (I suspect it was for an alternative way to get the Slug Buster).

I hate the Settlers raid because it does feel so incomplete. That said it seems to bug out less.

do settler quest until chinese stealth armor plans are yours, after that finish the raid with the crater raiders.

I understand. Good to know you get the plans for the stealth armor from there.

Too be fair, far too many quest lines and choices could be better. As in actually have the choice make a difference. But nope, nothing really matters in the end

I recommend going with the Raiders. The Slugbuster plasma gun is amazing. I use it as one of my main weapons, as a flamer. It has unique secret bonuses compared to the regular plasmagun. It's the second best option after a godroll modded enclave plasma.

As for their reputations, the raider rep can be easily glitched to earn max rep, it just takes some time to sit there and repeat the same interaction with the quest giver. Settler reputation cannot be glitched, but you can do 2-3 daily quests to gain Settler rep. Look for Ward in Foundation, and donate your reward to get the best rep reward, then go find Davenport and do the photo quest for him, and sell those photos to Ward. Lastly, if in the Whitespring Refuge you can do the cooking daily quest, give the good to the Settler representative.

It you happen to get the Eviction Notice public event on the world you play on, finishing it also gives some Settler rep. Going full rep will take actual weeks of daily log ins sadly, but this is an MMORPG afterll.
