    You mean the Great Hyperspace War that almost destroyed the galaxy? Luckily some of the Zetans human slaves survived and made some communities in the image of their home planet in the ruins of the once great alien city. That is a dangerous place though, bands of big green aliens, alien monsters, savage human tribes, killer robots, and zombie aliens roam the crumbling streets and towers. Prob best to stick to the countyside. I hear there is a space station to the west in that alien amusement park. Maybe you could find a working shuttle to get yourself back to your family there? ;-)

      Holy Hell. You, sir, have just altered my whole perspective

    So my current build, The Starlet Sniper, is rocking primarily the Lever Action rifle for the whole build. I finally got Old Reliable (which is the first and only lever rifle I'm getting) last night while my character was around level 15. Now the rifle was super expensive and since i basically rushed over to far harbor to get it right away well I didn't really have a ton of caps but bought it anyways (I had one rank in cap collector). I spent the rest of my caps getting about 300 of the very expensive .45-.70 rounds and headed back to the Commonwealth (my character doesn't really wanna hang out in the fog). This is all great! except that I just realized that you ccan't get .45-.70 rounds in the Commonwealth. I can't find a single vendor selling them and I read online that scrounger doesn't even make them pop up. So does this mean that my character is destined to constantly make trips back and forth to Maine to stock up on ammo? Or is there a better solution? Any help would be great

    The only .45-.70 rounds I have ever seen in the Commonwealth from my memory is a few off the occasional enemy that drops a lever action rifle. So yes Far Harbor is about it....however.....there are lots of mods that allow you to craft ammunition or that mess with vendor inventories. Certainly on any platform you can find a solution in a mod. Barring that yeah, better embrace the fog and go play Far Harbor hoarding/buying all the ammunition you can while you are there and hopefully head back to Boston with a big stack and stop back when you eventually do run out. At least it's not an automatic DLC weapon you want that blows through ammunition like the handmade rifle from Nuka-world. ;)

    I need help with getting something aesthetically similar to this picture:

    Currently my best option is Assault Gas Mask with scavenger outfit, any better suggestions would be fantastic

    Mad - there's a MOD I'd recommend that allows your to layer clothing...so you coud wear the assualt gas mask and have the Hunter's hood on overtop of it. I'm on PS4 so it's called "PS4 Wardrobe Malfunction" but I'm sure you can find a similar one depending on platform. 

    As for the coat / backpack...idk...let me poke around a little and get back to you.

    Hey thats actually not a bad idea, except I feel weird using things I just used in a previous build, I'll have to try it with the different gas masks and see how it looks. Thanks a ton Motty!

    The other one I ran into last night was - what about the Railroad Heavy Coat? It might work with the hood combo...
