Forum:Uniform for companion

I gather all my companion and use the bug to make all of them follow me, i think my squad's look is worst, then i sneak into the armory of hidden valley bunker, use the t 45b as the uniform(personally i think t 51b is really ugly).I still thnk is not good enough. And the most important thing is team leader(me)'s armor ,now i use the Brotherhood Elder's robe i stole from McNamara(i put a Raider blastmaster armor into his inventory, outcome is quite funny) or the Sheriff's Duster I get form Primm as my suit. Any suggestion of the courier gang's uniform and the suit for the squade leader(Vvardenfell 09:23, June 6, 2011 (UTC))

last thing in the world i would want is to have that many people all following me around. One is bad enough. ReapTheChaos 11:20, June 6, 2011 (UTC)

I quite like the feeling of a elite squade just like 1st recon, when they go out and hunt the golf player it is really cool and it i the only time in game that someone can do it like us(Vvardenfell 11:42, June 6, 2011 (UTC))

If the companions would actually listen to you like they would in a squad, then I might consider it, but when they just go off and start shooting whenever they damn well feel like rather than waiting for me to give the word first its quite annoying. Plus the main reason I don’t like companions is because you don’t get credit for their kills. Yes you get XP, but their kills don’t add up for challenge perks like lord death, mutant massacre, abominable etc. and those take forever to get as it is. I don’t need a squad of companions taking 75-80% of my kills. ReapTheChaos 11:52, June 6, 2011 (UTC)

Still I don't know how to improve my squad's look(Vvardenfell 08:45, June 7, 2011 (UTC)

Considered NCR ranger combat armor for the squad and the sheriff's duster (or bounty hunter duster) for the leader? If you could get them to wear them then dirty business suits all around with pre-war hats would be an impressive look, perhaps with the King's suit for the leader. 75.67.224.12 08:57, June 7, 2011 (UTC)

Of course i want them to wear it, but did you forgot that it is a ncr faction armor, only boone and i can wear it. And i don't prefer a gang like omerta, they are just not scary enough.and i want lily by my side too, i think only a armed gang will have a mutant by them side(Vvardenfell 09:00, June 7, 2011 (UTC))

I'll agree with Chaos but I always liked the look of Boon or Cass in Sierra Madre armor. I think you can get around 3 reinforced and a bunch of normal ones throughout the course of the DLC. It looks just like Vault 34 security armor but it's yellow and grey and says SECURITY across the back.Cpanda 09:15, June 7, 2011 (UTC)

I don't like secruity guard, i would rather use van graff combat armor to roleplay a mercenary team like Vvardenfell 09:45, June 7, 2011 (UTC))

For Boon its NCR Desert Ranger combat armour with his beret and sunglasses. The best look for Cass is Joshua Grhams SLCSWAT armour, sunglasses and a rattan cowboy hat, it just really suits her. For Arcade, standard combat armour with a prewar hat and his normal eyeglasses. Veronica just needs BoS armour although she does look good in a dress if you get the right mod that allows her to wear them. Raul looks best in his mexican cowboy gear, you just can't improve on that! 124.169.229.35 02:30, June 8, 2011 (UTC)

____ There is a mod for non-faction NCR armor, something to do with the NCRCF, sorry I don't remember more like the name. However it occurred to me that you could just use vault suits, and give each companion a suit from a different vault so the number on the back would be like a player number on a sports team. While thee vault suits don't look all that imposing on one person, have 7 people in blue coveralls with heavy weapons might be fairly threatening. Maybe a Boomer outfit for the leader.75.67.224.12 03:06, June 12, 2011 (UTC)

Don't get Reapers problem with the squad going after people without you telling them to. If you go talk to your companion and tell them you want to talk about their tactics, there are a few options:

Switch to melee weapon Use ranged weapons I want you to attack enemies the moment you see then I want you to NOT attack enemies unless I've already engaged them

Also yes they do listen to you as I have my companions always set to not attack unless I engage an enemy and they listen. That just seems like complaining for the sake of complaining.
