Museum of Witchcraft Question

[mazbii]

I’m in my first vanilla PS4 play through if this matters - I was walking around the museum to make it fast travel capable so that I could do the explore quest in my queue later today. I walked around the back and I find the dead body of Private Hart (I think that was the name) and when I looted a holotape off of her it said the quest was complete. Is it normal for her to be dead even though I never stepped inside? How does this affect the game?

Also, I experienced the children of Atom today with their gamma guns and I was… stunned. Is there a better way to armor against them besides Rad-X and Rad Away?

I'm on a pc but that shouldn't make any difference.

 

Yes that Gunner NPC should be dead. If you listen to the holotape it should trigger a new side quest (Devil's Due iirc) which takes you down the trapdoor near the body into the museum. Once inside, you may find this mission rather "interesting".

 

I try to avoid the CoA roaming gangs. If you have to fight them use long range weapons (missiles), and power armour (which I never use generally) will probably help as well

Ich arbeite am PC, aber das sollte keinen Unterschied machen.

 

Ja, dieser Gunner-NPC sollte tot sein. Wenn Sie sich das Holoband anhören, sollte es eine neue Nebenquest (Devil's Due iirc) auslösen, die Sie durch die Falltür in der Nähe der Leiche ins Museum führt. Sobald Sie drinnen sind, finden Sie diese Mission möglicherweise eher „interessant“.

 

Ich versuche, den umherstreifenden CoA-Banden auszuweichen. Wenn Sie gegen sie kämpfen müssen, verwenden Sie Langstreckenwaffen (Raketen) und Powerrüstungen (die ich im Allgemeinen nie verwende) werden wahrscheinlich auch hilfreich sein

 

And in vanilla Fallout, the player should have a clear message on the screen that a new quest is starting (this is also the case with the Playstation version)

This means that the thread opener MUST see a task about the museum in his quest book aka diary!

 

The "Children of the Atom" are not an issue if you

1) either have armor that does not let radiation through - i.e. power armor or a radiation protection suit (also called a "chemical protection suit")

2) attack them as described with weapons that have a long range and/or large area damage (sniper rifle, Gauss rifle, rocket launcher)
