Talk:A Brain's Best Friend

Gabe
I found no trace of Gabe, other than his bowl. I got to his doghouse, took the bowl, and walked around for a little while. He never showed up. --Wierdperson31 01:20, July 21, 2011 (UTC)

Me neither. I went in, investigated every house and took every item of value, grabbed the bowl and looked in the doghouse. Nothing at all.....

uhm..follow the quest markers. They will tell you to go to the X8 facility. Gabe is there.

I've just posted this over on the Talk:Gabe page, but it's also relevent here

Alternate Daily Rewards
If you tell Borous that Gabe knew his place as an experiment after passing the speech check. He will give the player cazodor and night stalker eggs instead of blood.At the end of Old World Blues he vouches that the player should get to live the life Gabe never had as opposed to being experimented on. -->

Just for clarification, as far as i've seen, the only creature that spawns at the Doghouse in Higgs Village is Stripe (providing that the Wild Wasteland perk is active) Gabe is found in the X-8 Research Center. If the player does not have the Wild Wasteland Perk, then the Doghouse will be empty and you will only find Gabe's Bowl there. Gabe is the Mini-Boss you fight to get the X-8 vertebrae-pulse-de-sensitizer frequency (In the area with two boarded up houses and lots of Gabes Dig Spots. Gabe explodes, Roboscorpions attack) Apologies if i'm wrong --- Itsjustliam 00:41, July 22, 2011 (UTC)

Killing Gabe?
I remember I did the quest and ended it with him alive, not sure it its a glitch or not. I killed the roboscorpions before they could kill Gabe. I don't remember if Borous said anything different though.Cripto136 17:32, July 25, 2011 (UTC)

- If Gabe is far enough from where the scorpions spawn and you can get to them first, you can keep Gabe alive. Borous thanks you for sparing him, but does not appear to give an extra reward.

Gabe Attacks?
I was detected at least twice while searching for the holodisk in the area and never engaged by Gabe, despite him showing a red marker the whole time. 9mm pistol.png 01:07, August 9, 2011 (UTC)
