If you reach max relationship with Nick, you gain the Close to Metal perk which gives you another attempt while hacking and reduces the lockout time for failures. His special ability allows him to hack any terminals you tell him to, although this has a chance to fail. Nick has a total of 62 SPECIAL stats with the most going to Intelligence and Agility. If you really want to choose the strongest companion or you’re just interested to see which are the best, here’s the top 10 best Fallout 4 companions!Īmong the first companions you meet while traversing the main storyline, Nick Valentine is a synth detective living in Diamond City. In the end it’s all down to who you prefer, it’s your character on a game you own, so choose the one you like the most.

Each companion is useful in their own right but some have more abilities than others.


I say Inigo is ahead of his time because I firmly believe that Bethesda based their later followers, such as Serana and the followers in Fallout 4, on Inigo.A loved feature in Fallout 4 is the ability meet companions who will travel with you, fight with you and possibly engage in courtship. It's especially fun if you play a werewolf with him in your party. I've played Inigo as a khajiit, a Nord, and an Argonian, and his comments were amusing each time. His replay value also goes through the roof because he can make different comments on the Dragonborn based on whatever race you're playing. He reads books to you, sings you funny songs, chats with you about silly things, and has an entire backstory that is both tragic and, in his words, moving. Try carrying buckets, various alchemy ingredients, different daedric artifacts-he comments on everything. Inigo also comments on practically everything in your inventory. The 80's references just add to the greatness of this mod.

In the picture above, my Argonian character is riding away with Inigo, who is picking out a name for his horse.
