@CT Phipps Elijah wasted his time going after ARCHIMEDES and the C-Finder. Shittiest weapon ever. He could at least have kept HELIOS for the solar power, to supplement Hidden Valley's electrical needs.
My approach to HELIOS is often this: If doing That Lucky Old Sun before recruiting Arcade, I activate ARCHIMEDES and kill all the NCR soldiers guarding the plant. If I do the quest with Arcade in my party, I leave it be. In either case, I always power the whole region equally. And if I kill the NCR troops by using ARCHIMEDES, I always go back to HELIOS later and kill all the Legionaries who took over, including Fantastic. Better I kill him than the Legion. Does he even realize what he signed up for given his chem habit?
