Securing Vault 13 good ending.

[Urinietszche]

I am playing unofficial patch, so scripts must be fixed. If I get it right, Navarro isn't final location and I'll have to move to Oil Rig later. If I kill named scientist there and delay further progress for some exp grind, will Vault 13 good ending timer stop and good ending be secured?

- First you need your game patched, so thats done.

- Then you need to fix V13 Voice modulator and thus get the GECK then you have a 2 Weeks timer to save V13.

- You also need to kill Dr. Shebber or something at Navarro and free the Deathclaw in that time frame, then you need to finish the game.

Doesn't timer stop when Dr. Shebber is dead and Deathclaws are freed?

Where is your power armor?

If you killed the doctor then you don't have to worry about the timer as he is the one that makes the report that says the Deathclaws should be hunted down.

I ended up killing the doctor first because i forgot to grab the voice module and didn't want to bother going back north to snag it.

Then later i just swung by Reno and grabbed it then back south to fix the computer and turn in the Vertibird plans.
I also stole the GECK before leaving V13 the first time and it didn't give me a different outcome, the timer only starts after you fix the computer(unless doctor is already dead).

Even if you kill the doctor, I think the Enclave will still take out V13 eventually.

Its a bug in Vanilla F2

Yeah, I took down doctor right after I fixed Vault 13 mainframe, but Enclave massacred Vault 13 anyway. I freed Xarn and we had dialogue about "Dr did not have time to prepare report", but then I went to pick up Goris whom I left in Arroyo and he got massacre event triggered. So I went to Vault 13 in case nothing happened there and nah, all are dead.

I searched answer and what i found was "Removed ability to get a happy ending for Vault 13. Now only part of the RP."
jeez, I just want the game to work as intended. no wonder Obsidian failed, bunch of jerks

I guess it's not that bad, no experience loss and it adds drama. Another reason to fight Enclave
