put the cursor over sanctuary on the map and it said only one settler was still alive.

Bugged.

The whole settlement tracking screen is total garbage. The numbers don't matchup with the actual settlement.

By the way, the workshop link only works linking "TO" Sanctuary.

So all the items your loyal servants collect, stay in that settlement and aren't in Sanctuary.

There needs to be another perk that makes them ALL link.

Takes too long to run through 20 settlements and pick up all of the worthwhile items collected.

The Charisma perk is still worth its weight in gold, but it would be nice to be able to upgrade to link ALL workshops.

Wait what

Explain that

Your settlers collect items? And I thought it was shared if a route was formed between settlements

Yes, Settlers collect crap. In the food & Water section there is a collector shelf thing that increases the amount collected.

The Perk only links each settlement to Sanctuary not to all workshops. Pretty sure it doesn't pool resources with all workshops.

There might be a dynamic to it that links them all. Like if I form a route from a to b to c to d to e...z and link them in one chain. that might do it. but linking each individual settlement with sanctuary wouldn't link all workshops. Not sure about that.

So around that level (mid-late teens) is that when folks start using power armor almost all the time?

I feel like I am hording fusion cores, not using power armor enough, and that contributes to me having to go really slowly through certain "dungeons" / areas.

Are most of ya'll in power armor most of the time? or just for "big events" ?

Have no desire to touch it.

I haven't felt like I needed it. As long as I can keep progressing, I may not use it.

I use it for every mission, but that's only because I have like 100 or so fusion cores. love playing with it. that sneak stuff is for the birds.

I sneak in my power armor. If your careful you can still get off one clean shot in sneak.

I'll have to try it

Level 56 now.

I've never used power armor much until today.

Had to head out to the radioactive waste and it would be easier to toss that on and not use up all my chems.

I've got the fusion core perks maxed so they last a long time and I have about 70 cores without every buying 1.

Moved the plot along the last couple of days. Going to do some more random exploration and building until next weekend.

i know you took a while to get to diamond city and do the main quest.

what did you do for so much XP? explore and sidequests? minutemen and settlement missions
