*SPOILER ALERT* Van Graff Quest "Birds of a Feather" vs Rose Cassidy's Quest "Heartache by the Number"

[King Anoobis]

I'm looking this up also, going to postpone it for a little, but I'm just having trouble deciding whether its's worth killing her to complete the Van Graff quest or turning over the Van graffs to complete her quest. I don't use energy weapons so I'm thinking of siding with Rose. Her dialouge also had me laughing out loud, with such gems as "Shaking each others ♥♥♥♥♥" refering to the 2 giant metal ranger statues.

As to my Character I'm lvl 19, and I'm trying to have good Karma, so that makes me think I should definitely not side with the Van graffs. I guess I'm looking for what you guys/gals did, and which you prefer and why. such as: is Cass a more valuable companion (more than Boone let's say, who I have been using primarily) with her 2 extra perks

Calm Heart, which raises her health by 50 points.
Hand of Vengeance, which grants a 15% bonus to the damage Cass inflicts with Guns-skill weapons.

Compared to the Van Graffs Weapons and Shop in general. Also, not sure yet if its possible to get them as a companion, and if so are they good?

Sorry for the wall o' text, and thanks for any help

Well the Van Graffs are pretty well known throughout the fallout series as being giant ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, and they are mixed up in all kinds of crime.

Good character? Slaughter the Van Graffs, then take everything on display and donate it to charity.

All of the companions are pretty cool. It's just personal choice (and whether or not you're doing their quest)

Yea I'm thinking thats what I need to do. For some reason I kinda like the Van Graffs, they're shady, but they're more like bad mercs to me, not quite as bad as the Legion, who just a little too evil for me. It just sucks, the more I play this the more I'm realizing I'm gonna have to play at least 1 more time and be evil haha.

I might just do that. Their merchandise is worth more caps than what they're paying me to kill her.

You left off Cass' best perk - no negative intelligence effects from alcohol. Personally I don't think energy weapons are all they're cracked up to be, so just buy the choicest ones that you want and then take out the Van Graffs. but that's just me...

I usually side with Cass against the van Graffs. I do the van Graffs quests but then when they give me the quest to kill Cass, I switch sides and hang onto Cass. Why do away with a great companion?

Boone is the best vanilla companion in the game, but Cass has a lot of great strengths as well, and is good company. After solving all the companions' quests, I put Cass and Veronica in the Lucky 38 and let them take turns going exploring with me.
