So who else here disagreed with Dr. Lesko s little project?


Dr Rex

Recommended Posts

Dr. Rex terminated Dr. Lesko's program.

 

BIGTIME. Opened the door to the lab were the lil egghead was holed up, listened to his ramblings and inability to be accountable, thumbed off the safety of the combat shotgun and

 

KA-BOOM!!! No more worries about research grants for ol' Doc Leslo.

 

Just curious who else here "pulled the plug" on Lesko's little experiment.

 

Dr. Rex is still scraping Queen Ant Thorax bits of his steel-capped boots.

 

After seeing the havoc caused by this snide yahoo, and listening to the story of Brian Wilkes, there wasn't much relective thinking in Dr. Rex's decision tree :D

 

If you let him live (and his creations) is there any other storyline or quests that Dr. Lesko is a part of? Not that I am going back.

Far as I know, nope... Other than if you let him live and do things his way, you get 50% fire resistance and your choice of +1 STR or +1 PER. But as far as I know, he never comes up again. I remember him even saying that he'll be in his shack next to Brian's house, but when I went there he was gone, so I'm pretty sure he just never leaves that hole.

I disagreed as well, but I took a more roundabout way of dealing with it.

 

I accepted the quest to kill the 5 ant guardians, and I went and killed them and left the queen and his protectron alone.

I then went back, and he happily gave me my ant might injection which gave me my +1 STR and +25% resistance to fire.

 

Then, as he was walking back to the nest with the queen, I put a bottlecap mine right in front of the door. Pop goes Dr. Lesko.

 

I followed that up by going down to the queen and offset my negative karma for killing Lesko by getting a karma bonus for killing the Queen with a few nuka grenades.

 

Then I gave the Protectron's face a makeover with my trusty sawedoff.

 

I trekked to Rivet City and set Bryan up with his cousin Vera. Yay happy ending!

I tricked the Ant Queen into killing him. I followed him down to make sure that he was going to do what he said he was going to do- you never know with these mad scientist types; he'd already bred one batch of fire-breathing super ants and all it takes is a little bit of greed to twist science to evil ends... the Queen seemed offended by my presence, and Lesko got caught in between and killed by his own experiment. I put her out of her misery and chalked it down as a case of poetic justice.

Man, two good posts on alternate unique ways in dealing with Dr. Lesko. I need to get WAY more creative in my "problem solving" :thumbsup:

Well, the character I was playing at the time of meeting Lesko was a science-nut so he quickly shot Lesko down telling him how he should have followed scientific proceedures and all that. Aftwards, I accepted the quest to kill the guardians. Went down there, and the queen decided it was a good idea to attack Charon. Well, Charon blasted the damn thing away before I realized where he was. Then I simply returned to Lesko, told him the queen was dead, got the shot and knifed the male without a father for not following scientific procedures properly. :D

I also berated him for being unscientific after getting very angry at his pompous attitude towards the town he destroyed. I went and killed the ants, came back, got the shot, and decided to follow him to see what he was going to do. Something scared the poo out of him and he ran back to his lab, where I promptly put a .44 slug between his eyes for killing bryan's dad and leaving me to take care of him.

In Fallout 2, super stims grant a larger temp bonus to health, but later on that health goes away, and if one's actual HP were not enough to cover it, they would die. We also could use items on other people, including all drugs. So you could assasinate people in this way without being held responsible. Would have been cool to heal him to death, or force-feed him jet till his heart popped.

 

So that I'm not being completely OT, on this playthough I'll be either lighting him on fire and watching him run around or using a sword, shishkebab, ripper, or super sledge. The flamer seems most appropriate given how all the townspeople died by his negligence. So I guess it will be: kill the guardians, get the shot, light him on fire, then I'll chop the limbs off and if I can find a toilet, that's where his head will reside from then on. I'm roleplaying a female mass-ax murderer type with the black widow perk. Hella fun!
