Shi Fuel

[font size=1" color="#FF0000]LAST EDITED ON Jun-29-02 AT 06:05PM (GMT)[p]When on the tanker and you're talking to Badger, and he offers to hack the Shi computers for you, if you hack the hubologists, what can you do in it? Is it atually possible to actually fuel their dudey lil ship with the stuff? And if so, exactly what does it do?

RE: Shi Fuel

The question is actually do you want Badger to be executed by the Shi. If Badger steals the fuel from the Shi, he will get executed. Alternatively, he can steal fuel from the Hubologists (who are a rotten bunch). You can do the job of stealing the fuel, or buying it (for a suit of armor).

My advice would be to go slow, read Per's guide for help, but be careful. You can shut off a lot of possible quests at San Fran if you are not careful.

RE: Shi Fuel

You can have Badger hack the fuel, and it takes him a few days to do so while he is doing that give the harden power armor to the shi guy and you get exp points on both of them because they both give you the fuel. I also believe I got xp just for using the emperor computer to verify that all the fuel has been diverted to the tanker.

Per I believe you can get Dave Handy to divert fuel to the tanker as well. I could have sworn I was able to get him to do it by setting him up with Vikki. Not sure that I did or I just made him think i did. When you hacked the dialouge did you see anything like that?

RE: Shi Fuel

I think you are right, Dave Handy can steal the fuel for you, but I dont' think you get much experience. ALso Dave never gets to do the wild thing with Vikki. But then neither do you (Jeez! what a tight ass!)

I didn't give the Shi guy the hardened power armor, but I think I gave it to Sulik instead. Sulik in hardened power armor and that big nasty sledge hammer is more fun (and besides if you really want experience points the best way is to give up the car in San Fran and go hunting mutants and aliens- amazing experience and blood letting fun!).

I stole the fuel from the Shi, then had Badger steal the fuel from the Hubologists, then killed all the hubologists after maxing out on hardened power armor. Stealing from the Shi is not that bad, and they probably won't figure out it was you. Becoming a Hubologists puts you on the San Fran doctor's shit list, but other than that its pretty painless.

Getting Badger killed by the Shi is not a point loss. Actually you get points for getting this accomplished from the Hubologist. But why would you want to? Come on, there are some things that aren't worth the experience (especially when you can get the same result blasting nasty aliens).

I never thought of this, will add to my list o' stuff.

Maybe that was just the normal xp you get for hacking into it?

Yes, it's in the guide. Only you get no xp for it.

Once you turn against the Hubs the doctor will think you're all right again.

It's not the xp, it's about doing everything there is to do.
