Forum:Jericho's gone *POOF!* on me... (good riddance?)

I hope, again, that someone hasn't already brought this up. If so, my apologies. If not, *Snoopy dance*

Yesterday, for the first time, I played through Operation: Anchorage, twice, with different characters. Now my first character only has Dogmeat and Sergeant RL-3 as companions. My second character, Irma Geddon, the evil melee'ing b!tch, used the glitch and has Charon (with A3-21's Plasma Rifle and Combat Armor), Clover (with Lincoln's Repeater and Wanderer's Leather Armor) and Jericho (with Vengeance and Outcast Armor) following her. Now, I went through the DLC, Irma with her beloved Shishkabob charging & just -slaughtering- the Frankensteins, her companions laying waste, all of them like the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, and then she went into the simulation.

Now afterward, two interesting and possibly disturbing things occurred, once she left the elevator to the outpost. Firstly, she discovered that the companions were in "Wait here" mode, even though she'd never given them that command. Secondly and more dramatically, Jericho was gone... WITH MY VENGEANCE!!! (*grrrr* When I find that guy, I'm gonna dice him up worse than a Deathclaw could!) Anyhoo, I don't mind Jerk-O being gone so much, as he's an annoying pain in the rearmost anatomical area. But I would like to know -why- it happened, and how it can be prevented in the future. I am figuring that its happening is somehow linked to the companion you get in the simulation, Sergeant Benjamin Montgomery.

A little help here? I need to break my boot off in Jerk-O's ass! As always, thanks,

I would check Megaton for a start. By the way, I would recommend giving Charon a unique small gun as it can be far more effective than the Plasma rifle. Reason being is that he levels his small guns to 100 over time, not his energy weapons. May I suggest the terrible shotgun or the xuanlong chinese assault rifle, to name a few.--I-am-a-panda 00:40, 21 February 2009 (UTC)

You mean Megaton Ruins, with this character. >:) OK, I'll check there. Hopefully he's there... with my VENGEANCE! I like Charon having the Plasma Rifle because I like seeing his salvos, which is why Jericho is using Vengeance, and I can hear the BOOMS! from Clover's Lincoln's Repeater. Its kinda like a war film with those three; all the tracers and artillery. mwuah-hahahaha I don't have the Terrible Shotgun or Xuanlong's pork-fried rice, yet, with any of my characters, but I'd planned on going after the latter soon, as I saw its description about an hour ago. Thanks very much for the info. I hope Jerk-O's there at the Ruins, keeping Deputy Weld's head company... and hopefully being annoyed by it.

OK, crap! I tried your advice but Jericho is just not to be found! I returned to the Megaton Ruins, didn't see him. I made a circuit of it, close to walls, constantly scanning around for that "friendly" blip. No dice, but I encountered a wandering Scavenger with a dead brahman. Butchered her for waving a piece in my face. And getting my hopes up that she was Jerk-O. I then did another circuit, further out, still scanning about. Frak! Nothing doing, but this time encountered Lucky Harith near the old entrance. (Guy don't sell enough pigstickers, but his caps are still good.) Sold him all the stuff I snatched off the Scavenger. And her brahman. Bought some more .44 rounds for Clover and Microfusion Cells for Charon. Had a pang of ... sadness (?? not sure what that feels like) that there was no reason anymore to buy Electron Charge Packs for Jerk-O (even though he had well over 8,000 when I last saw him).

I'm about to return to the Outcast Outpost to see if, for whatever reason, he's there. ... Will probably grease all those losers for putting me through this. Plus this armor completely covers my hellish figure!

-sigh- Any more ideas?

''Clover, ya little whore, quit hoggin' all the [CENSORED] vodka! Pass it over. Charon, snap her in half, sideways, if she don't leave go of that bottle!''

OH MY GOD!!!! I found him!! Like I said I'd do, I went back to the Outcast Outpost, cleansed the area of everyone and everything ie. turrets. I then started looking around, in case I'd somehow missed the [Jericho is dead!] message on my Pip-Boy (impossible, yeah?). But I couldn't find him or his corpse anywhere. I get to the final, I mean starting area, the rocky, rubbled area, across where you exit the Metro, and he's just standing there (no doubt with his thumb up his ass! *SNORT!*). HA!! I -almost- hugged him, but instead I had him hand me his Blastmaster helmet... and then just BUSTED him in the mouth! Bare-handed, y'know, I didn't wanna kill him, y'know, with like a knife or a police baton or something equally deadly in my hands. heh. Anyways, after he woke up, having been carried back to my Tenpenny suite by Charon, he found that I had Wonderglued him to the surgery cot, and well... that was just a few minutes ago. Lemme get back to ya... YAY!
