The Unofficial Manual to Wasteland 3: Everything I know from A to Z
LAST MAJOR UPDATE: 16/09/2021
CURRENTLY WORKING ON: 1.5.0 extensive testing
PAGES: 578
WORD COUNT: 64658
LATEST AND GREATEST UPDATES:
IMPORTANT! 1.5.0. UPDATE:
As of 1.5.0., one big confirmed but undocumented change is:
You can no longer use utility items to qualify for perks.
E.g. no more investing 4 ranks in Animal Whisperer and using the utility item to unlock/qualify for the rank 5 Spirit Animal perk.
This changes a lot of my builds, and working through those changes and getting the point values right again is a fair amount of work.
So until further notice, a lot of my builds will be inaccurate or short of points in the short term.
I do plan to update this soon, but I don't have a time-frame for that yet.
Shout out to inXile for creating a game I have enjoyed immensely. This Manual is my thank you to the Team, and made freely for all my fellow Wastelanders. If used as a resourced elsewhere, please give credit to Ilikepie84 from Reddit.

I've just released Beta 0.7 of Arkansas 2125! 🎮
The HUD and UI panels are now larger, with texture filtering disabled for a sharper retro look and better readability on Steam Deck.
I'm a solo indie developer, and I'd love to hear your feedback!

Currently lvl 25. Bare fists are literally doing 3x the damage of my current (and even past) brawling weapons. I'm doing a blind playthrough, so I don't know if this brawling weapon I currently have is the toppest of its tier (lvl 23), but my bare fists are doing 180-200 dmg per hit against enemies. This is my main (custom) character btw, playing on 2nd hardest (ranger I think) difficulty settings.

So I've played wasteland 2 on the Nintendo switch and it was terrible. I ended up having to play it on the Xbox but got hard locked out of California once I got there.
I now know that the switch 2 is out and a lot of games seem to be playing better just because it's on a switch 2, that is without a dedicated switch to patch.
Honestly has anybody tried playing it on the switch 2, does it seem to run smoother
They should just remake too and make three on the switch to especially with mouse features.
I love these term basically they are right up my alley on there right up on the switches in ally

Since the stats of the ranger sacrificed to get Pustule don't matter, I didn't think the size of the ranger mattered either. Just for fun, I made the poor bastard I created for the sacrifice as big as possible. Turns out size does transfer. My Pustule is huge and I love it so I thought I'd share (I never thought I'd write that one day).

I played on easy, this was more about seeing if it's possible and if I could do it.
I did fail, but since you can get peace between the church and Hollywood im willing to say it's doable.
The hardest bits were the Prison, pass the guns that you need the tank for. the Citadel obviously, those guys hit like a truck.
I did grind a bit to get Vultures Cry up to level 40, and she was the lowest level squadmember, probably didnt need to but I wanted everyone except Boss using Proton weapons.
Im going to say Blunt is the best melee, you can farm proton hammers off of Citadel people. Personally Brawling is my favorite but Blunt frequently one shot most enemies.
Hacking, Machinary and Weaponsmithing are important for the perks they can unlock.
I will do a Wasteland 3 Melee only in a bit, but thats gonna be a while since I need a break from Wasteland.

The energy weapons just melt my health.
r/Wasteland • u/Upstairs-Yard-2139 • 13d ago
So The Bastion has a door you need to get past, and it has two turrets you can’t hit guarding it, guess you have to join the crazy person church to do this.

I was using Gemini to find recommendations to games I might like and this came up. I'd never heard of it.
Games I have loved over the past 2 years or so:
Marvels Midnight Suns
Aliens Dark Decent
Baldurs Gate 3
Dying light the beast
The Forest
Alan Wake 2
Is this game for me? I use a PS5
Thanks

NAME: Boss
LEVEL: 23
SKILLS:
Brawling: 10
Kiss Ass: 8
Smart Ass: 8
Weaponsmithing: 5
Field Medic: 3
NOTES: Yeah she sucks, no speed means she can't chase down enemies.
NAME: Doc
LEVEL: 22
SKILLS:
Surgeon: 8+2
Bladed Weapons: 9
Field Medic: 8+1
Notes: Good damage, great at healing.
NAME: Bash
LEVEL: 22
SKILLS:
Brute Force: 10
Blunt Weapons: 10
Mechanical repair: 3+1
Toaster Repair: 3
NOTES: my highest damage dealer for a while, still probably is.
NAME: Crah
LEVEL: 23
SKILLS:
Computer Science: 10
Blunt Weapons: 10
Safecracking: 4
Lockpicking: 4
NOTES: computer science is a godsend against robots, maybe it invalidates the challenge, but my squad only uses Melee so I say still a win.
NAME: Takayuki
LEVEL: 24
SKILLS:
Bladed Weapons: 9
Demolitions: 5
Mechanical Repair: 3
NOTES: very strong squad mate, a necessity
NAME: Chisel
LEVEL: 21
SKILLS:
Blunt Weapons: 9
Hard Ass: 3
Brite Force: 3
NOTES: High damage, very useful.
NAME: Vultures Cry
LEVEL: 18
SKILLS:
Outdorsmen: 10
Animal Whisper: 4+1
Perception: 4
Balded Weapons: 4
Sniper Rifle: 3
NOTES: Outdorsmen and Perception are invaluable, especially considering how aggresive random encounters can be, so I took slightly lower damage for more versitility.
The first time meeting robots was difficult, but thats meant to be so, the Red Scorpion malitia base attack was a nightmare, almost everyone is high up so I spent like four to six turns just moving people closer to the enemy.
So, any thoughts?

Outside Leve L’upe Mine.
Boss: Level 8
Doc: Level 7
Bash: Level 7
Crash: Level 7
Angela: Level 10
Vultures Cry: Level 6.
Currently I’m hoping to use Animal Whisper on the Honey Badgers. On my last attempt I got lucky drops and had brass knuckles and a sickle at this point, this attempt I still have sap gloves and a makeshift Machete, wooden staff and nail board are ok.
I need Chisel since he’s one of like 4 companions who start with a Melee skill, plus good strength.
I can’t use the cyborg(Lexicanum) because he betrays you at the end so I shouldn’t rely on him at all.
So my final team will probably be Ralphy, Chisel and Takayuki.
Also I put Boss’s point into Strength for more Health.

I've gone through like 5-6 playthroughs when I bought this game on console but picked it up on PC recently with the intent of having a cheat run.
Except... I couldn't save. As soon as I modified my attribute/skill points and tried to save, the wheel would spin infinitely. So I started another playthrough & made multiple saves after the first tutorial fight before modifying stats. Same issue. I exited to menu and loaded one of the saves, which forced me to restart from character creation. I loaded the other saves and all of them were "corrupted", putting me at the character selection screen.
I loled. They had to have done that on purpose right?

Looking for someone who has wasteland 3 on Xbox to do a full game play through on SJ, doing a patriarch aligned run for achievements. Preferably have both dlc.

I'm in the Little Vegas, fought and defeated Brygo, and went to fight everyone else I can in there for loot and/or XP. When I enter the Local 168's room, they start a fight, but every time (literally, I reloaded and tried again a lot) the initiative is decided 100% in their favor and they ALL go first, wrecking my party and often knocking some of them out, before I even get a chance to do anything.
I tried sending the toughest guy inside (with the rest waiting outside), with the idea, that hopefully he survives a turn, runs outside, and the enemies will follow and can be shot as they come out, but he gets wrecked and knocked out before he can do anything, too.
It's not possible to attack first with a sniper (which I've done in the number of other places), because they are not actively hostile until they attack, and so they are treated as civilians, not hostiles.
How do you fight them? (It should be possible, especially since one of the ways you deal with Brygo is picking the fight to lure the guard elsewhere away from his post, but doesn't seem to be - my difficulty level is Wastelander, so it shouldn't be this hard, but, well, it is.)
My party is two guys with assault rifles (Kwon and a custom ranger), Thunder with heavy gun, Lucia, a custom leader/pistol fighter ranger, and a sniper (also custom).

Can someone please tell me how to do this quest?
I have Ivans governor but when I go to the EEG Hood Prototype, it will only let me do one of 3 things:
Steal BFs governor
Install Ivans
Step away
When I steal BFs, I'm not able to put Ivans in, it won't let me interact, save for a standard message saying the governor has been removed.
When I install Ivans, something happens (if you know then you know).
I'm trying to get Ivans quest reward. The only thing I can think of is that I'm at the wrong machine.
Please can someone put me out of my misery?
