Ok I'm a bit stuck right now and need some help.

I just killed the Synth Courser and I have the Synth chip. My quest tells me to go to Railroad HQ and have them help me decode it. But when I go in there I'm Killed on Sight. I have never been KOS with them before so I don't know what the hell I did.

Any ideas?

I just did that and it cleared it up. But I did do something differently...

I killed the Synth Courser but didn't kill the 2 hostages and the K1-81* Synth that was locked up.

My best guess
Killing K1-81(the runaway?) flagged you as a anti-freedom/anti-railroad.

The cost to buy 282 10mm rounds in my battle gear at 7 CHA is 846c. with my CHA 3 items @ 12 CHR the same 282 rounds is 564c. a good investment for 6 seconds of clicking.
Keep in mind i have cap collector 2, which reduces my prices. It is required for the 3rd rank settlement vendors.

The CHA price differance is significant.
Would be real nice if you had hotkeys for armor sets.

Then you'd be Deacon. You shouldn't want to be Deacon until someone retools him as

Way behind everyone (level 13), but thanks for the tips before when I asked. Ended up side questing a bit and the game is more enjoyable, I played until like 2 am last night. Dying less, although occasionally get instagibbed by a mine, grenade, or mutant rocket but that's less frustrating than what was happening before. My guns are still terrible, so hoping I can find something better soon.

Jesus Christ this game is hard as fuck doing pistoleer on survivalist. Mother fucking hell. Bullet Sponge doesn't even begin to describe how the fucking mobs are. I had to install a mod that let me craft my own ammunition because I am running through it like water.

I started a melee survivalist and in the first area a bladed tire iron dropped. I'm now trucking shit.

I am getting the absolute worst dog shit from legendary mobs. Almost 100% armor pieces that have stupid mirelurk affixes or bullshit like 10% movement speed.

Its really random. You need to kill a lot of them. I got a string at one point of a bunch of + stat armors somewhere in the mid 20s that I'm still wearing at the mid 40s it was so good.

Its the nature of the rng I guess. I'd estimate 70-80% or more of what I've gotten is crap

There are...

super mutants with bombs strapped to them. Fucking scary. Tho the Assaultron takes the cake so far. Fuck those robots.
Yeah I know, but they just don't look right. Not sure if changing their char models in a Mod would be overly difficult, but I was just making the assumption that Raider NPCs would be easier to reskin?

Also it seems some of the quest locations are different between playthroughs? For the first settlement quest to clear out some raiders I was sent to a place different than my other two play throuhs. It was also a much easier location.

Those quests are repeatable and randomized is why.

Is randomly starting character after character, looking for early drops that match the playstyle you want, something that people will end up doing as a result of this? It just seems to me that so much of your success/failure can be predicated on random drops that I'm surprised there isn't some sort of "signature" weapon quest early on, so that you can at least get something to help you not suck quite as much.

I just...the risk vs reward for survivalist doesn't seem to be even remotely close to what it should be. I would use one of those "realism" mods that reduces the enemy HP, but that seems fucking retarded too.
