Anyway to get rid of radiation for free?

[PROPHET]

means, without using radaway or visiting a doc..

[arti_llery]

One mod that can help a bit with this is amazing items. One of the added armor effects will remove rads at a slow to high rate(it has multiple options). Just be aware the mod can make you pretty hard to kill if you stack the bonuses.

The rad-arch is the ulimate fix if you have the DLC that lets you build them yourself.
There are one or two radiation removing chambers scattered around, but they are rare, the Mass Fusion building contains one, the Children of Atom base in Far Harbour has one, and I think that the mechanist lair does too. Not something you can rely on early.

I don't see why paying a doctor a trivial number of caps to remove rads is a dealbreaker.

Does mass fusion building removes radiation indefinitely or just once? I'm close to it I guess...

Building the Archway is actually rather easy, half the game is grabing the junk around the world anyway, might as well use if for something. Plus Fallout 4 was clearly designed intending for you to use the settlement crafting system.

Absolutely, the whole point of the friggin game. Built the rad-away arch about 100 years ago. Lol. NPC tracker also. why do people just expect things on their plate?

I like your response to this, find a different game to play - if it is too hard to enjoy at the level of your expectations.
I find it a nice challenge to undertake.

If the easy suggestions here are too much for you, on the keyboard press the ~ button on the top left of your keyboard and type:

Player.additem 23742 50

To get 50 radaways added to your inventory. If that isn't easy enough, then you have some issues, friend-o.....

Vault 81 enterance...

Solar Power Perk, removes rads during the daytime. This perk is awesome for Far Harhor.

[Brandybuck]

Just use the arch. Who cares if it's not "free". Nothing is free! Just play the game with worrying about what is free.

Play a non-Fallout game.

(just look at all these solutions!)

Hallucigen, Inc. has a decontamination tunnel.

I haven't played the game, but if you don't want to collect any resources to create radaway or a food that reduces radiation, or a perk since that wastes another perk point, or build the arch (which surely must use up something), there are several thematic things you can do.

One is to simply stay inside your original Vault, which may have areas where there is no radiation. This will replicate your fear and bother with radiation and survival in general. You'd be playing such an NPC. It might seem a bit boring, but it would be totally safe, require no use of any Perk points or finding any resources or building anything -- similar to just playing computer games or watching TV all day in today's world, sorta. However, this require role-playing, so not sure you want to do that, since it may require more than no effort.

Even more thematic is to not even buy Fallout 4. In this way you take the theme of effortless play to an even higher level. You then can stay within the Vault in Fallout 3 and even save a lot of real life survival money, well the price is coming down now, and it isn't really a lot, but it is thematic. The benefit of this case is not just lower cost, but no effort at all, except to stay away from stores you might otherwise tend to frequent, and avoid reading all the hype about Bethesda games, which might be wise anyway (see Paragraph 6 for why).

You could try to find or create mod that would do what you wanted, but that might require researching things about how to build a mod, require a lot of time to actually build the mod, require you to playtest the mod, and all of that requires effort.

Personally, I'd go out there kill and find a few things since that will happen automatically as you adventure in the game anyway, but that would be anti-thetical to your proposition of things being free of any cost, time, or effort. You will pretty much find much of what you need as a by-product of doing everything else, so can't really complain too much about the effort or the cost if you intend to play the game. Unless you don't intend to play the game, which I'd then refer you to Paragraph 3 above.

Maybe Bethesda will patch Fallout 76 to solve your problem for you. Then again, given its current state, maybe the thematic thing for you to do is play Fallout 76, as I doubt you'd then much worry about the additional effort of creating radaway versus the humongous effort just to keep playing Fallout 76 in the first place.

Like just go die to radiation posioning.

Good point, might require less effort, and when you respawn you just continue from where you left off or at the Vault where you have no radiation anymore. I like the suggestion.

[DouglasGrave]

The Robes of Atom's Devoted (from the Far Harbour DLC) can make radiation not matter anymore, though they require some effort to get, and you probably wouldn't make very good use of them without ballistic weave since they occupy body slots (and ballistic weave again requires a significant investment of effort to get).

But it was fun with my cultist character to wander around and just not worry about radiation at all for once.

[Solomon Hawk]

A "Free" way to get rid of rads.

Man, I just don't know how to answer this.

If this is your problem in the Commonwealth, you're gonna hate Far Harbor.

But 7 vials of mysterious serum will do it, but you'll have to work your butt off to get to that point. Unless you turn Lorenzo loose and he'll give you a vial when you need it.
Then there is the "Refreshing Beverage", and you'll have to make that. The hard part will be getting what you need to make it.

Then again, if some genius comes up with a mod you can use and call it ...
wait for it::

"Lead Skin". Or maybe, Lead Belly.
Or maybe even the Aquaboy perk.
