Forum:Ed-E hostile towards me

I had Ed-e in my party then sent him to Lucky 38. Instead of going to Lucky 38 I found him in Primm but everytime I enter Primm's house or whatever it's called (cant think of the name right now) he starts attacking me and everyone else. I've tried entering with just one companion, with two companions and with just myself and everytime he just starts attacking. Ive tried waiting 72 hours and then going back and the same thing happens. Anyone have any advice on fixing this?

Was there any food in him before you dismissed him? People have this habit of trying to take food out of him, and he doesnt take this very well.... Agent c 02:25, December 9, 2010 (UTC)

The same thing happened to me. I left ed-e behind so I could take on some crazadores. He made it impossible to sneak because every time I would shoot one from a distance, he'd attack, and they'd spot me. After a while I got a message saying he'd gone back to Primm. Now, no matter what I do, when I enter the house he attacks. Never had any food in him. Riconurse173.78.111.117 01:49, December 11, 2010 (UTC)

He did have food in him when I sent him away. Is there any way to fix this? He also had a bunch of other items that I really needed. If I kill him can I get my stuff back from him by searching his mechanical corpse? - becks77

I'm surprise by this. The companions in NV usually will die from bulletfire from me before they become hostile. 67SunsetStrip 19:33, December 12, 2010 (UTC)

ED-E will become hostile if you leave him somewhere (tell him to wait here) and you stay away for very long. I used him for a lot of the game, told him to "wait here" at my motel room in Novac while I completed a few quests that kept me away from him for about 4 days. During that time I got the message that he returned to Primm. When I went after him and walked into the office where you first found him he began shooting at me. I waited, went back, the same thing happens. I finally went back to an earlier save ( the one just before I left on the 4 day trip ) and this time had him follow me... ALL IS WELL. ED-E is a great companion to have he has great storage space as well as keeps the bad guys busy while I shoot them. It was worth the hastle of going back to get him again. Pairing him with Cass is a great combination. You will lose ED-E if you leave him for a decent period of time. Also, he will be mad at you and attack you if you do the ED-E quest that gives him better armor, this happened to my brother during his play thru... Best not to update his armor or leave him, take him with you and use him. Good Luck Cincykidscott 02:58, December 14, 2010 (UTC)

At one point, I lost both of my followers, Boone and ED-E, and had no idea where they went. After some time passed, the game informed me that they returned to their respective locations. Upon returning to Novac, Boone was fine, but when I returned to Primm ED-E freaked out and attacked myself, Ruby, and John Nash. I had not upgraded him, or asked him to stay. Now it just shows him as dead, and I cannot revive him. I have a feeling that all of these are some sort of bug, through no fault of the player.
