Forum:Arefu/Bloodlines Questions

I got the quest in Megaton and went off to Arefu, talked to the old geezer and the rest of the townsfolk, then left. I didn't steal anything while there and never attacked anyone. When I approached Arefu some time later, I got the notice they were hostile and they fired on me. At the same time, the old guy was fighting off a Radscorpian and a Mirelurk that may have followed me there when I first arrived. I waded into the fight and killed them after they killed the old guy. I figured I may as well pick up some loot, so I searched his body and took what he had. When I entered each house, the occupants attacked me, so I killed them. Probably a big mistake. I decided to go looking for the Family anyway and headed to the drive-in theater, the trainyard, and wherever else the old guy told me to look. I found Robert, but he didn't give me hardly any dialog options. Didn't attack either, so I left and went on to further adventures.

My question is: Is the quest totally screwed up now? Would it be any benefit to talk to the family? Should I just kill them all for the experience and loot?

I save frequently and I'm sure I have a save some time before everything went haywire. Problem is, I'm a couple levels past that now; I'm almost to Level 7 now and I'd hate to go back and redo so much. Any advice?

Thanks.

i think you might have to go back, if you can't get the dialogue options to find who you need to in the family you cant really complete the quest, unless you just go back to the family and see if you can find who ya need... how far into the trainyard did you get? --LittleTinyMyers 17:08, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

I went to the trainyard through the tunnels. I killed whatever beasts were there and picked up all the loot I could find, railway spikes, etc. As I mentioned, I found Robert, but didn't try to get in to see the Family people. Maybe I'll Fast Travel back and see what I can do. I sure don't want to go back three levels or so and replay so much. Maybe I'll just live with things the way they are and make sure to do things right on a replay in the future.

I think u r screwed. I have had to start from a much earlier save before, but actually it was great because I picked different perks, distributed skill points differently, and ended up with a better character... look at the bright side... of fallout ... ?Pgoon 18:39, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

Same thing happened to me. I fast travelled there, and a Deathclaw appeared. It killed Evan King, and it said "Quest Failed; the residents of Arefu are now hostile to you" Just reload your game and it should be fine. -Big Gun Maniac
