So I've been trying to get the Ballistic Weave from the Railroad and between a handful of radiants and doing Unlikely Valentine that has been enough to procure Piper's perk. I am not done with her though, I know there are some quests that will be appropriate to complete with her as a companion. Meanwhile she can return to Diamond City and write about her adventures with the sole survivor.

For the past two, maybe three days I have been working on Hangman's Alley. This isn't about promoting that post, but feel free to upvote it if you think I did an okay job 😄

No, what I am wondering about is the settlement building taking up too much of my time? What I mean is, when you are still working through the acts of the game do you stop to construct a settlement to show off your build or do you just throw down a farm, workshop, and dormitory and continue on with the game?

Do you polish every settlement in one save or do you just pick one settlement to lavish attention on?

Don't get me wrong I've had fun trying out ideas, but at the same time I've racked up so much experience building settlements my character is level 75 and still in the early stage of act one 😅

This is my build of Hangman's Alley. After struggling with the limited building height, the unscrappable shack and invisible things stopping me from building I am relatively satisfied with what I've built.

I was giving some idle thought about making a serious effort to get this achievement when it just randomly popped up. There is one settler and the provisioner. Ironically enough the first settler to show up and the main resident of Croup manor is a ghoul XD

As to how I got it, the resident ghoul is looking after two cats and two dogs while maintaining some gym equipment, that is all.

edit: for the sake of clarity and to help anyone else seeking this achievement the final tally is two weight benches, 2 dogs and 2 cats. I was in the process of adding more cats when the achievement popped so in the end our resident ghoul is looking after four cats.

Well I have MacCready's perk now. He was pretty easy to do. Did a few quests with him and cleaned out a couple of the warehouses in Good Neighbor and that was it.

Funnily enough after we dropped off the cure for his son he wouldn't give me the final tick of his approval until we helped Finch Farm fend off a super mutant attack where he went for a joyride in the power armor I've stored there.

I find it game mechanics strange though. By any measure of logic he should leave the Commonwealth to be with his son, and I'd have given him my blessing to go. But he will just hang around in whatever settlement you send him to. I think I'll leave him at Starlight, I think he likes that settlement.
