Any suggestions? I hate taking her anywhere with me, especially since YUP fixes Follows-Chalk's character class from the generic Dead Horse to his unique one that has Guns tagged, letting him rip and tear White Legs with a 12.7mm SMG.
Perhaps give this one a try:-
It rebalances/debuffs all companions. On the whole it is pretty decent; among the changes it adds custom armour (reasonably lore friendly) to Waking Cloud and ups her melee combat abilities so she no longer gets tolchoked by Yao Guai or the odd Zion Mantis.
Use this mod with caution; some points to note:
- Removes most vanilla companion perks and instead gives you/companions reasonable buffs
- Removes any carry capacity from ED-E (logical, but might annoy some)
- Slightly nerfs Boone’s rate of fire but don’t worry, he’s still T-1000 tier
- Veronica/WC can only use unarmed/glove/power fist weapons
- Do not use this mod with the popular ‘NPC Can Sprint’ mod - it turns Veronica into an unstoppable killer of almost anything and destroys the balance of the game if you have her as a companion
- Occasionally, a weird bug can occur when companions with unarmed weapons run in slow-motion and it bakes into subsequent saves. I’ve had this twice in about 200+ hours across Autumn.
Some of the above may feel a bit odd, but give it a try. On the whole I prefer the changes it makes to the companions over vanilla.
