Raider Settlement Took Down A Vertibird

[chastan]

This might just be new to me, but I fast traveled to one of my raider settlements (Croup Manor) and as I was in the workshop, a couple raiders were like “huh? What the hell is that?”

So I exited the workshop and watched as all 16 raiders, and couple turrets, blasted away at a Vertibird until they blew it up and it crashed into the ground. I only recently started seeing Vertibirds flying around, maybe 10-15 hours ago, and didn’t know they could be interacted with/grounded by weapons.

This game is dope, ~140 hours in and still feeling brand new often.

Yeah, that's its very common to see Vertibirds just get demolished by a couple dudes on the ground.

They pretty much take themselves down.

the church just north of Vault 88 is a hotspot for brotherhood and raider fights once the zombie vestiges of the us government "officially arrive"

 

it's really good for finding power armor pieces, fusion cores, fusion cell ammo, and if you have the penetrator perk you can even stock up on PA frames by blowing their fusion core out with a couple good shots, then they'll get out of it and get blasted to hell

 

there's a mod so you can fix the frame ownership when you get in it too - [PA Ownership Fix] is what it's called, it clears its "owned" flag and since it's just a .pex script it doesn't take an actual mod slot, in case you're running a big list
