All Nuka World Endings Ranked Worst to Best in Fallout 4

[@boopledoopleson]

Knowing Fallout, I think that the slave merchants in Nuka World are more likely wearing bomb collars than shock collars.

[@asdasd-ty9se]

Could be both, sometimes only minor correction is needed

[@sir_captainmorgan]

I’m like 90% sure they’re bomb collars

[@JohnathonHC]

They are bomb collars

[@therudecanadian8068]

Those are identical to bomb collars from 3 and NV.

[@equilibrium9829]

shock collar would be more fiting. A punished person can learn to behave but a dead one can not.

[@alongfortheride1016]

The Pack are, in fact, cannibals. In the service tunnels where the cages and most of the beds are; the player can find Mystery Jerky and Mystery Bacon, both of which are affected by the Cannibal perk. For whatever reason, I think there is a terminal that alludes to the untimely death of a Pack member and a sudden restocking of food

[@senseistick9942]

They are unknowing cannibals. There are letters that tell that there don't know what meat that is and are suspicious. It's more likely that human meat is only on the table if other sources of meat are rare

[@senseistick9942]

That means there only a few people from the pack that are real cannibals that are giving human meat to the other pack members

It would’ve been cool if Bethesda gave us an official way to have the Minutemen/BOS liberate Nuka World from the raiders. (I know there is a Nexus mod called Battle for Nuka World that does this but us console players don’t have access to it)

[@cyril7727]

There’s a mod on Xbox called minutemen takeover

[@chadnorris8257]

I expected that to be an option. They don't let us take out the Gunners with the Minutemen either. It really is the most half baked faction in the game. The others are a bit undercooked as well, with maybe the exception of the Brotherhood. And even that is partially a rehash of 3.

[@henlo1910]

It would make sense for the railroad too. Canonically the faction is about freeing all slaves, not just synths. The fact that there wasn't an option to involve the railroad in freeing the slaves covertly is a shame.

[@crackedjabber]

Fun fact about killing all the raiders... if you don't attack the bosses, no one cares who you kill. So you can run around and murder all the raiders leaving just the bosses to snipe out at your leisure.

[@thomasfrye6335]

Of course, Gage is also unable to be killed in the same way. Good to note for next time, I don’t like the raider quests so usually eliminate gage first, net time I’ll take out the basic raiders first

If you want to truly experience everything Nuka World has to offer you just need to do what I did. 1) Don’t go to Concord and talk to Preston. 2) Go to Nuka World and become Overboss. 3) Get Open Season. 4) Take all the Parks for the Raiders and get Gage’s perk. 5) Complete Amoral Combat 6 times. 6) Take 3 uninhabited settlements in the Commonwealth. 7) Kill the Disciples and talk to the other raiders to get their rewards. 8) Take 5 more uninhabited settlements in the common wealth to get the achievement. 9) Complete 12 radiant quests for the Operators to get that achievement. 10) Dismiss Gage and never go near him again and Complete Open Season. 11) Take back all the Raider settlements in the Commonwealth. 12) Go to Concord and talk to Preston. He won’t even mention the Raiders and the rest of the game plays out like normal.

Then just zoom through the rest of the nuka world quests. Then you can pick your next 5 raiding targets knock those out and your done. Then kill the raiders or enslave the world.

Chaotic evil are better than neutral evil. Neutral evil is the psychopath, intelligent and backstabbing. Chaotic evil, such as the disciples, just need to be fed. They will not revolt as long as they are afraid of your power and you can feed them settlers to play with. The operators on the other hand can see trough your power and wants financial gain; your caps. The disciples are thus the cheapest group, as money is a low priority for them. The pack are just meat shields, grunts. They are easily swayed by fear, so a combination of the pack and the disciples is the best as long as your character is intelligent and very brutal, since you will not have access to the operators planning and will need your own head (and your second in command, but he isnt a rocket scientist).

[@MrHodoAstartes]

I feel like this DLC is extremely paradoxical as content. It only really serves to tear down what you have been building beforehand and at the same time provides the only thing that actually comes close to feeling like the actual leader of anything. For everyone else you're just the errant boy. It feels extremely uncomfortable to be put in charge of these insane murderers. It's not a moral choice like joining Ceasar's Legion in NV. They do not have an ideology about which you can think one way or the other. Just insane murder and exploitation for the hell of it. And you can either get cool perks for being evil. Or a firm handshake for being no fun.

[@thewhitewolf5261]

I'm pretty sure this dlc was to appease all the people who complained that Fallout 4 didn't have enough ways to role play as a true evil character. Hence why it's whole story was centered around becoming a Raider boss and taking over the Commonwealth by force.

[@mazz9487]

​@@enjoyingend1939I actually consider Aeternus to be trash tier, for the simple reason that if you have the correct perks to be using a gatling laser to begin with, it is completely impossible to run out of fusion cores even with both a gatling laser and power armor, effectively making *all* gatling lasers, not just Aeternus, infinite ammo

[@enjoyingend1939]

@@taelim6599 i can see where you're coming from, but i respectfully disagree, it's not only the infinite ammo, it's also that you never have to reload it, so you can keep blasting when faced with multiple enemies. The only gatling laser i'd consider to be a little bit superior is maxsons rapid fire or maybe an anti-armor or if possible a two shot. I did the boston public library quest recently with aeternus and it was amazing just gunning down the supermutants as they came up from the station sitting out there on top of the stairs in full t-60 power armor only ceasing fire once they stopped coming. You don't really get that feeling with any other gatling laser.

All you get are the achievements for Nuka-World, as well as the perks and gear the raiders give you.

[@dexter1009]

Fallout 4 in general feels like everything about it is 60% finished, but it's so big, and there is so much to do, you dont realize it until after you've done a few different playthroughs. The dlcs dont have that luxury, so the fact they are so unfinished and rushed is in your face from the start. The base idea of Nuka World is great, but everything happens so fast in unlogical ways and everything is only surface level when it shouldve gone deeper. You becoming overboss after defeating the current one makes sense since that system is in place so thats not the issue. What doesn't make sense is since everyone knows cage helped you and you cheesed it no one challenges you or tries to murder you after. What shouldve happened is instead of going to introduce yourself to all the bosses or on your way to do so the pack leader challenges you and then the disciples ambush you and after defeating them you can either kill the leader and replace them with a random pawn that would be loyal to you or you spare them and they declare loyalty to you and then with the operators you do go meet them but after hearing you dominated the others they accept you or you bribe them or something. There should've been a 4th gang that cage represented that acted as overboss loyalists. They wouldnt add to the story when it came to choices or keeping gangs happy at all but they would be a background thing that acts as the reason everyone doesn't just swarm you and cages role and reputation as the overboss's "second" would make more sense. Instead of open season the end game shouldve been 1 of 2 endings. If you want to stay a raider the story after you clear all the parks would lead to you uniting the gangs under 1 banner and basically assimilate all the gangs into the gang Cage leads resulting in you creating your very own gang under one banner and even naming it. The gang you didnt do enough for would refuse to join and rebel. After that you would take your gang under 1 flag and conquor the commonwealth but you could actually do things the way you wanted to and instead of being forced to be evil you would just have your very own faction now. The other ending would be to use either the minutemen, BOS, or institute even and take over Nuka world with them wiping out the raiders. Nuka world would become a trading outpost under the minute men, military outpost under the brotherhood, or a secondary research facility for the institute (the railroad sucks in everyway but maybe if you decided to go with them Nuka world would become a synth haven making the railroad a real faction now). Nothing really gets ruined that way, you could explore everything the dlc has to offer no matter your choice, and even if you go through the dlc before you deal with the institute you could use your newly formed faction to destroy it. Thats what the Nuka World dlc shouldve been

[@mattragusa210]

There should have been an option in the game to have the Brotherhood or Minutemen attack & liberate Nuka-World, as both factions would have valid reasons for wanting to take over: the Brotherhood would be very interested in the advanced technology hidden in the various theme parks, while the Minutemen would want to save the merchants and build a trading post.

I use the vault set to make great clean homes. So my "enslaved settlements" have protection, free food (farmed by robots), clean water, and clean houses (pre-war clean).

In terms of Gatling Lasers, 1 Fusion core is loaded in, and you get 100 shots (cells) so the never ending effect makes it infinite ammo because they technically aren’t the same thing

[@thewhitewolf5261]

In Fallout 3 and NV the gatling laser did use micro fusion cells, as fusion cores weren't a thing in those games. Though the Fallout 4 gatling laser is super buggy with it's use of fusion cores. I mean, the whole reason the legendary one in the Nuka-World dlc is so good to have is because the buggy state of the gatling laser can make it have actual infinite ammo instead of just having a bottomless mag size (it's legendary effect is supposed to give it the latter and not the former).

​@@thewhitewolf5261 Two things: 1. Aeternus's effect is not a bug, it's intended. We know this because its name is latin for "infinite". 2. Aeternus's legendary effect is actually completely useless. Sure, it gives you truly infinite ammo, but the gatling laser is probably the one singular weapon in the entire game where that doesn't actually mean anything, because, with maxed Nuclear Physicist and Scrounger, it's completely impossible to run out of fusion cores even if you use both a gatling laser and power armor, effectively giving *all* gatling lasers infinite ammo.

And as I said earlier, the infinite ammo glitch only works with Aeternus if you have exactly 5 fusion cores in your inventory, no more, no less, otherwise it works as intended and just has a bottomless mag size. Which, in fact, makes Aeternus pretty much impossible to use with power armor if you want to use the infinite ammo glitch.

yeah but for someone like me that went into the dlcs blind ....i feel like i just got the middle finger . ive already with a job and nieces to take care of , refuse to restart a game i put 4 days in real life into

[@LoneHerald]

The Aeternus isn't modified to use fusion cores. All gatling lasers use them. The "500 rounds" of the gun or whatever amount you have in the gun is based off the mag/battery capacity of one fusion core. The Aeternus is unique as it is both unlimited ammo, and never has to be reloaded

[@brindmoor3666]

Not sure if anyone said it already, but you can also get Open Season from Preston Garvey

[@FyreTeGo]

The best way to about it in my opinion is to save, experience the ending and turning on the power (love that part with the view), and then reload an earlier save to not piss off the minutemen and Preston.

[@brianknevitt7779]

In terms of the unique perks/weapons, I feel like the Disciples have the weakest gift when looked at for themselves, yet the Disciples actually compliment the melee damage perk of the Pack and/or the stealth bonus of the Operators very well. On the other hand, Operators and Pack encourage different sorts of gameplay - either bruiser or sniper - which means they need to be the more broken by comparison to make up for it.

[@Shaneliffin]

If you want, you can do the nuke world quest line, side with a faction, and then do open season to get the most out of your dlc

[@Ricardo_Rick]

Honestly? i wish that Open Season had more care put into it, like a secret perk or reward. But as in Fallout fashion we would need to have mods for it, i know they made one where you do the quest with the Minuteman but i hope someone makes a mod where the minuteman (or the faction you allied at the end) takes nuka world entirely, not only the few merchants at the center market

[@matthewsargeant2046]

The way i see it kept the most stable raider faction the pack and opperators. Creating a faction to help the minutemen, yes Preston there raiders but sometimes you need a group of tough people to back you the minute men are just getting back on there feet less people and atleast you can now talk to them instead of shooting first.

[@boeserKadser]

Pack/Deciples make the best combo for a overpowered Blitz Melee build. A welcome change of play after shooting raiders for hundred hours. I recommend that combo for anyone not playing stealth sniper

[@LucasDimoveo]

It would have been cool if Pickman was a former Disciple

[@Turkeysammich3000]

When I do a raider playthrough, I like to not even start the minute men questline. If you simply got up to where Preston says “grab that laser musket” you can just go back to Codsworth and tell him you tried or there were some inbred people in Concord, then he can become your companion, BUT when dismissed he will always head back to sanctuary. You don’t actually need the minute men for anything Also, if you complete the robot section of nuka world without killing robots, they’ll become friendly, making that area feel more lively

[@DragonxFlutter]

I can’t help but shake the feeling that Open Season was a last-minute addition that didn’t have much time to cook before the DLC was shipped out. Like, they forgot that the rest of the game (and other DLCs) make the player out to be the HERO of the Commonwealth, and rushed to make a “good guy ending”. Other than the “don’t go to Concord” loophole, I think NukaWorld would be great for alternate-start mods.

[@djsquelch8125]

I think there was a mistake for the aeternus, all gatling lasers use fusion cores, but due to the neverending legendary effect it doesn't technically use any ammo.

[@MasterFug]

There is one more ending, if you do not join the minutemen In concord, you can join the raiders pick two raiders get their gear and perks then meet Preston for the first time, he will then give you open season and rebuild the minutemen. I think Preston does not have a chip on his shoulder if you do it that way

[@zeveria7206]

With the player having direct authority and the gangs having more of a hierarchy, I always say the raiders as a more structured alternative to the Minutemen and a means of forming a psuedo government for the Commonwealth with food and caps being the citizenry's "taxes" so Overboss can govern the land and the raiders can (ironically) keep the roads safe. With that in mind, I prefer to keep the Operators (brains) and the Pack (muscle) alive. I don't have much use for mindless sadism without purpose (Disciples).

[@stitchfan08]

The pack perk is the best one and Mason is the only one who says they would still happily kill u mags and Nisha does respect you and I don't see them betraying the sole survivor

[@janetd5121]

This DLC more than any other needs mods to make it better story wise. Map and environment I love but its too limited story wise. There is a mod for minutemen take over, another you can assign parks to faction of your choice after getting rid of the raiders and also one that brings back Golden Globe studios from Fallout 1 called Nuka Ride.

[@gh0ulgirl05]

i love taking over the commonwealth with the operators and the disciples.

[@eldibs]

I don't care how much content it locks out, how difficult it is, or how many items I lose access to. Always Open Season. I don't negotiate or work with raiders and especially not slavers.

[@frisianmouve]

The Nuka world plus mod where the minutemen can take nuka world and develop it is the best ending

[@AceBobcat]

I did a Punisher build once and just MOWED all three raiders down with bullets.

[@thelambsauce-lf2iq]

honestly id keep the pack and disciples around just cus theyre my favourite raider gang, the operators dont feel like theyre raiders just some gang the pack and disciples definitely fit the raider vibe, which fits if your going for like a raider playthrough or smt ig

[@hfhdudgsudhdhxhdh]

I feel like the disciples would say they want the joker to join and if he did even they wouldn't want him hes too crazy

[@thescarletbaroness]

Bethesda dropped a big ball with Nuka World, they had set up a Super-hero story with the Silver Shroud and just ditched it. Even legitimately gave us a friendly Nemesis in Pickman. If you went full Overboss, he should have showed back up, if you killed him in the commonwealth, perhaps its a synth or was the one you killed a synth, no matter, you've got a raider focused serial killer stalking you. OR if you stay good, Pickman shows up ala The Mysterious Stranger but with his use of small blade to slice and dice, getting away with a 'see you around, Shroud.'

[@dashaunmayor3239]

They really should have made open season a long game style mission when you can gain all three gangs trust and get there rewards and then flip the script cause doing the Mika world quest you don’t really do anything inherently evil

[@HD2OTR]

The next vanilla playthrough I do I intend on playing all of the creation club content first, then straight to Nuka World so I can be the Overboss while assisting the Institute. That way I finish the playthrough strong on Far Harbor

[@floralbrake]

The real reward of open season is knowing that you saved the people. Sometimes doing the right thing doesn’t give you any perks. Either way, it’s the right thing, that’s why you do it. On an unrelated note, I’m surprised that they didn’t allow us to add more “traders” to Nukaworld with a mesmertron.

[@allynhopps1875]

There is an alternate path to nuka-world put the Minutemen in that you play Nuka world first then do the Minutemen by going to Concord after completing all of Nuka world and as a result Preston Garvey will give you the quest Open Season and you only have to kill two of the three gangs

[@jakec892]

I've beaten Fallout 4 many times, and this time now with a PS5, I am doing a full minute men playthrough so Open Season it is.

[@kjham19]

I’ve replayed this game and sided with every different faction for all stories at least once but I have literally always killed the disciples in all play throughs 😆

[@enterthehat]

Are those perks you get permanent? Can you go ahead and do Open Season AFTER getting your chosen perks? And can you get your settlements back as normal settlements later?

[@sabschatz]

1: yes 2: dunno, but probably 3: probably no

[@macairhead5137]

3: you can get your settlements back after open season. You can’t get all three faction perks, I think

[@leroyjenkins4115]

"I don't know. I guess I just felt like killing a lot of people." 🤣 One of the coldest and coolest lines I've ever heard in Fallout. I did get the "good" ending because I f'ing hate raiders. When they said which of your settlements that you've spent hours, days, weeks, years creating, defending, and developing, would you like to massacre? I was like, "Ah, you all gotta die." 😅

[@jordonbrown9762]

If you do the Nuka World DLC BEFORE you join the Minutemen, should you want to choose that faction, you don't have a pissed off Preston and it's like nothing ever happened. Plus, with the way that the raider settlement mechanics are. It makes building places like Starlight Drive-in, County Crossing or Sunshine Tidings (The three that I always capture when doing Home Sweet Home) so much easier; should you be interested in such

[@wolfyt7054]

Dude the baseball bat has furious thats sooo good on a melee weapon

[@Brookesey]

K, but have you considered that Nisha is awesome and the disciples looks cool while the operators just wear leather jackets? Also you gotta keep the Pack because they are the only ones that make sense in the zoo place where my friend Cito is. But i think ultimately it came down to in my playthrough i wasnt using silenced weapons or stealth so the operator perk didnt do anythings for me.... granted i also wasnt using melee weapons but i liked Nisha and Mason more

[@piratavorak]

The nuka raiders in my opinion should have been a main faction with its own ending, with them capturing diamont city and bunker hill at the end of the campaing, becoming the raiders rulers of the commonwealth

[@JodiGeo]

This DLC would've been awesome if the raider gangs' story was more a way for an alternate ending where you can destroy the Minutemen (Likely with no way to turn back and no way to kill off the Raiders) and get a unique raider based ending instead of just having the story be "Decide who gets to do what" Have it be a Raiders vs Minutemen DLC

[@Dovah22]

I always screw over the disciples because my first playthrough Nisha pissed me off.

[@Gdub33]

I would never turn against my own people video game or not. Preston is very annoying and all but it doesnt mean i should go burn down all ive built. Turning against my people and oppressing them is vile and I don't have the gene in me that would allow me to do that. Open season it will be for me! Any tips on how far I can go in the Nuka World storyline before i have to start raiding settlements? Are there evil settlements with evil people i can raid so i dont feel bad about it? If so i will do that and go with operators up until i do the open season mission and betray them. No honor among thieves!

[@macairhead5137]

You can take over uninhabited settlements. You can send settlers to other settlements first, then add the Raider stuff (still useable after open season when reverted back to normal settlements) and make them into raider settlements. You can make them farm for food, and offset the happiness hits with chemstations and such, or have a robot farm for them, but the happiness hit would roughly be the same, since robots have max 50% happiness. I like tormenting my raiders with farming 😏

[@Gdub33]

@@macairhead5137 that's a good idea. Now that I've found most of the settlements some are uninhabited. I'll torture the raiders with farming 😂

[@powermasterjazz]

The best reason to turn on the Disciples is to get Nisha's mask. It's pretty badass.

[@majorasmask5523]

I’m going into Open Season on max difficulty. At my point in the game, I have most SPECIAL perks. I’m gonna equip my best power armor, my best weapons, and I’m gonna go for an enthusiastic, moonlit walk.

[@duallsensedwayneVODS]

I hate to be this guy but all Gatling Lasers use Fusion Cores, not Cells 7:06 . The "Aeternus" is endless because of a certain loophole, I think, in the games coding which the gun consumes ammo but the charge from the cores isn't categorized themselves as ammo, therefore making it endless.

[@Lancaster22]

Is there any way to seclude the Raider bosses rather than just running in guns blazing? I tried to do it to one of the factions and it was almost impossible. Should I do some of the quests first to get a better angle to kill them or what is the best approach to still be…morally good?? Haha

[@brianoconnell4593]

Best ending is actually 1) rescue Garvey, but don't join the MM yet. 2) do the Nuka world area, but take over only 3 of the many monster only inhabited settlements 3) collect whichever perks and rewards you want from Nuka gangs. 4) then do open season and murder the other 2 gangs whenever it suits. 5) once open season is finished return to Garvey and he will again be a companion and offer the general job. Completes the most quests and rewards and keeps Garvey, at the cost of losing the raider companion naturally

[@Clown_the_Clown]

Love seeing Shylily's gamersups up there!

[@bogantofan2420]

I found if you don't meet Preston you can still get him and side with a gang. You complete Nuka World DLC and then meet with Preston and wipe the rest of the two gangs out. Basically you complete Nuka World as a raider boss and then Open Season after meeting for the first time with Preston.

[@timspiker]

I came to this DLC after completing the main story and Mechanist DLC, so my character had most of the good perks unlocked. Doing the obstacle course was a breeze and the overboss took a fatman to the face. Easy peasy. The DLC in itself is a fun way to further grind out the perk tree. This video made it more difficult to choose on who to choose now. I really dislike hipsters but their perk is quite good.

[@Daneki]

I was today years old when it dawned on me that the 3 types of grenades are just Calm, Fear, and Frenzy. Damn you bethesda

[@mapencila001]

I with open season with no hesitation. I had Preston with me in a Minutemen power armor.

[@Schmiko6928]

Having the raiders take out the institute would be interesting.

[@themissingpeace7956]

I only go through the Nuka World dlc for the perks. Once I get them I instantly turn on the raiders and wipe them out.

[@dekucake]

6:10 Wait, you can just go straight to the power supply and turn it on without doing the 5 main quests or killing the bosses?! I went through the entire dlc unpowered, just trying to finish it up to get the last core for the Quantum armor. What the fuck!

[@POPATREE-gs1fg]

I’m surprised you didn’t mention that if you skip talking to Preston Garvey in the beginning, you can do the new Coca-Cola DLC get whatever perks you want then go talk to Preston for the first time and he doesn’t hate you for the rest of the game

[@ayakoyuuta]

Don't want ugly decoration place on Nuka World's location, so I wiped out all raiders in Nuka World

[@cleansweep]

After God knows how many playthroughs that I've done and bored to tears, I decided to start a new game and ~ player.setlevel 32. Once I left the vault. This triggered Nuka world so I headed straight from the vault to nuka world ignoring going home and meeting codsworth, as well as not triggering Preston Garvey....its been interesting.

[@chariotsylver7122]

Killing the pack should actually place as the worst ending in all of nuka world. their perk is generally good for both melee and range weapon build. Also The Pack gives two weapons, one can only be acquired through talking to the pack leader with the right dialogue. its a range type weapon with same effect as the melee version. One of the reason why The Pack is the least one you really want to kill at all. Flexibility is something that the pack has that the other two factions doesn't. If you're a range type build, the Operators is the 2nd one you want to live for obvious reasons on their perk and weapon they give. while The Disciples are for the melee builds.

[@anthonyvarzino1094]

Sam, rate all the endings of New Vegas, Lonesome Road, and the main quest, dont fear your speculation. Thanks
