Keeps repeating, "We need to get to bunker hill" when I pull up chat options.

He's just one the many potential random encounters you'll come across. Which is all based on how high your Luck is.

Yeah I went ahead and put my first 12 perk points into luck and charisma so that might be it.

Luck has no effect on random encounters.

Timothy is a super rare encounters. Some encounters are just rarer than others. It took me 1800 hours of play time to finally come across Ness.

He's an escaped synth that woprks as a random encounter
I've run into him only twice.
He asks for directions to bunker hill (assuming that he has been directed there by the railroad to get to safety), if you haven't discovered bunker hill he will politely say goodbye or not talk to you.

If you do know the way, you can point him there.
I'm unsure if he occurs multiple times, he seems to be one of the rarest encounters and is the only method of getting an institute outfit before getting into the institute.

Hey, Timothy! That guy was my first random encounter in my first playthrough.

The rarest encounter is Amelia Stockton BEFORE she gets kidnapped. I dont know if they patched it to remove her frm the wasteland after release. I remember encountering her along with Fred O'Connel near Abernathy Farm. I have never seen it again.

Is she marked essential?
Would be interesting to see if we can put a bullet in her BEFORE she gets captured, see if that changes anything.

I find him in almost every playthrough. Just did, in my current one. He isn't that rare.

[mfree]

Oh dear god, why does my brain....

MOD REQUEST

This particular NPC needs to be renamed "Timmy" and given the appropriate Southpark audio clips...

Consideirng Fred O'Connel raises form the dead to appear in the wasteland probably wouldnt affect a thing. Never mind them two Art idiots if they bug out and keep reoccuring.

I left the vault on new toon and ran into a Boss Radscorpion under the high tension lines while picking Hubflowers near Abernathy Farms while lvl 1. On that same toon I encountered Gruel by the raider camp north of Red Rocket while lvl 3. I almost quit and started over thinking I'd received a really bad seed.

It was not a boss, it was jsut five levels higher than you.

Which by the way, ther eis no levle limits on what level of a mob gets attracted by a cage. It really sucks to get a glowing mongrel at like level 3, lol.
