Forum:Jefferson Memorial Enclave Guys

I read somewhere on this site that you could get into the Jefferson Memorial after "The Waters of Life" and kill Colonel Autumn for his laser pistol, 10 mm pistol, or both. The writer said you could find a spot where there's a small gap between the scaffolding and force-field to jump in, which is true, even though you can actually just walk in from the road along the river. Well, I went in and Autumn was nowhere to be found. I searched everywhere except the Taft Tunnels, which were re-locked.

I was always under the impression you couldn't get his laser pistol (at least on the PS3, and without computer cheats), and this appears to be true.

However, my trip wasn't completely wasted. I walked up onto the catwalk and noticed 3 enclave soldiers and an officer. I drew my Wazer Wifle and then realized they weren't lighting up red on my HUD. I walked right up and talked to them. They were no threat so I went inside the building, came out, and they were still there. This time I walked up and nonchalantly dropped a nuka grenade at their feet. They still didn't turn red, even as I ran away. They blew up real nice, though!

So, free enclave armor and weapons, but no Colonel Autumn's pistol. Is there any way to get the laser pistol on the PS3? LVTDUDE 19:30, 27 January 2009 (UTC)

So you got in right? I used this glitch to get his clothes and laser pistol but I think you may have to do this glitch while your quest objective for take it back is "meet with sarah lyons and prepare for battle" look on the col autumns laser pistol page and there's a video how to get in to the memorial while the fields are up (im sure its there) Mr snip 21:03, 27 January 2009 (UTC)

Ahhh, I haven't started the "Take it back" quest yet. I've been running around with Charon finding bobbleheads and blowing up baddies. I'll have to start the quest tonight and see if anything changes at the memorial. At what point does the force field completely surround the area? Right now there is still the section at the main road that is still open. I suppose once this is closed I can assume Col Autumn has arrived? LVTDUDE 21:45, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
