DBM VS Mad Monks Help! (Mild Spoilers)

[The.Spaz.]

So the Temple of Titan is probably the most trickiest situation I have encountered in the game yet. I am stuck between choosing between two factions locked in a struggle. I can either help to overthrow the current power and establish a new one, by all accoutns it doesn't seem like a good deal. OR, I can the eucrrent power maintain their dominance.

I sided with the Monks as I found them alturistic (they didn't have to maintain peace at all) but am now realizing that they are fated to be wiped out no matter the coutcome. Your involvment merely changes how. I am begining to think it might have been more beneficial to side with the military at this point, sure I get assed out but there would be some measure of peace which I can choose to destroy at a later date (mwuahahahha). But I am loathe to start that area over as I have picked up decent loot from the corpses of the militia.

1) Should I just stick with the path I have chosen (Chaos) or is siding with the milita the best bet ? I have to imagine despite being high on the taxes they will keep the raiders at bay.

2) If you have high enough Smart/Kiss Ass levels you can kind of get on the milita leader's good side and get a nifty sniper rifle. He also promises a "lifetime Pass" if I help them take over. Does that hold up?

3) Dr. Kyle seems to be reponsible for the worst outcome. Does she play a larger part in any of the alternate paths? Do we see her later in the game?

4) How do you get access to prosthetics?

Wow this plce is dead. I figure fallout 4 is consuming everyone. I guess I am going to restart the area and see what feels better. Seeing as no one is around to talk me out of wasting my time...

1) Seems you pretty much already read ahead about the possible outcomes at the titan's canyon. So considering you know already what happens, I mean you know about the chaos raiders, Dr. Kyle and so on, I'm not sure what else you want to know.
If you want to know the exact text of the epilogue, so you don't have to play at least 3 times the game to see the 3 major outcomes for the canyon, I recommend to google for youtube, wasteland 2 and epilogue. There are some vids that show the epilogues for the canyon.

2) I think you already read it, but if not you can read about Cliff Sadler and the DMB here.

It's accurate. Just remember to never kill any DMB member.

3) No, except for triggering the nuke should you send it to the monks. You will learn about her origin in the second half of the game.

4)You can't.

[The.Spaz.]

Well I just tried the alternative and figure I will keep with the path I took. None of them are satisfactory and I leaned that the deal holds up as long as you deliver the nuke. That means I can get away killing the soldiers in hiding (as I never completely restared the area rather than just continue from te point where I met saddler). Thanks for the response though...

Titan, like Ag Center vs. HIghpool, where I wish the devs had taken a bit more time to come up with some nuanced but harder to accomplish solution.


Personally I went with the chaos solution as there's a suggestion that the rangers will take over control of the canyon later on. Leaving a live nuke around, either at Silo 7 or in the hands of the DBM seemed like a bad idea. Ditto the monks, although in their case they will always set it off even if you arrange for Dr Kyle and Brother Guano to be dead before you give it to them.

I was hoping for some other approach, like blackmailing Father Enola into changing the monk's methods by threatening to reveal his Titan is a fake, then disarming the nuke after finding some way to stop an alert about that being broadcast so he'd be able to keep control.

[The.Spaz.]

Yeah I wish it was more fluid like that. It would be nice if the game responded to your actual actions rather than do check list and dishout a preset out come.

one good reason to side with the military is that at the final battle, sadler and his LT will help you if you side with them, they're pretty helpful too especially if you play on supreme jerk or one lower level.

It will be interesting to see how the end shapes up for me. I think so far I have wiped out all militarial oppositions. Just got to Cali, so lets hope there are some decent faction that I can side with...

You know it would be cool if the game allowed you to save Killer, if you managed to hold on to a serum you get from the AG center.
