Forum:Firelance Help

I was walking to the Super Duper Mart for Moria on the research quest when i saw the explosion in the sky. I was unaware at the time what it was so i walked around to the front of the building were 2 raiders were fighting Enclave eyebots. I was approaching the raiders when one turned around and shot at me and killed me in one hit. The raider had picked up the firelance and killed me with it. From my last save i went back to the Super Duper Mart but the random encounter didnt occur and no gun was out front. My question is, will the firelance be lost forever? or will the random encounter happen again later in the game?

It should happen again. Think like its a repeatable speech check. You pass then die, so you try again but this time you fail.

It happened but because you died and went back to before it happened, in the eyes of the game it never happened. You just need to get lucky again.
