Meet with Paladin Rahmani at Fort Atlas
Go to Vault 96
Speak to the survivor
Signal Valdez from the terminal
Speak to Valdez
Head deeper into the Vault
- Access the Vault 96 terminal in order to try and open the door
- The Security lockdown has sealed off the rest of the Vault from the entrance. Valdez thinks she can get it open. I need to wait for her to do so.
Search the Vault for clues
- We reached the Vault Atrium and found Blood Eagles searching the place. We'll need to take care of them before we can progress further inside.
Clear out the Blood Eagles
- The Blood Eagles are down but Dr. Blackburn spoke to us via the Vault PA system, asking us to leave.
Listen to Blackburn Listen to Valdez
- With the Atrium clear, we need to search the rest of the Vault for clues about the missing people. Most of the doors are locked down, but Scribe Valdez pointed out the open door to the Mainframe Wing. We'll start there.
Search the Mainframe Wing for clues
- We've found some records indicating that Blackburn found the Vault empty and is using it as a research facility. He may be holding the missing people further inside. Maybe we can open the door to Reactor Maintenance.
- Gather the marked files and Holo-tapes
Open the Reactor Wing
(Optional) Short-circuit the terminal fusebox
Searchthe Reactor Wing for clues
- Gather the marked files and holotapes
Open the Cryonics Wing
- It turns out Tally is with the Blood Eagles raiding the Vault. She's promised us a security keycard she found in exchange for helping her people fight off the robots attacking them. With little other choice, we've agreed.
Defeat attacking robots
- We've beaten the robots attacking Tally's Blood Eagles. Time to settle our deal with her and get that keycard
Speak to Tally Lang
- We've got the keycard from Tally Lang, so we should be able to bypass any other doors in the Vault. But first we need to search this area for more evidence of the missing persons
Search the Cryonics Bay for clues
- Gather the marked files and Holo-tapes
Open the Research Wing
Search the Research Wing for clues Locate the prisoners Speak to Cassie Halloway
- Cassie Halloway told us that Dr. Blackburn unlocks the cells from somewhere behind the stairs. We need to look there for a way to free the survivors
Unlock the test chambers Speak to Cassie Halloway
- With Cassie and the other survivors safe, we've gathered more than enough evidence to confront Dr. Blackburn. He's in the Overseer's office above the Atrium.
Open the Overseer's Office Speak to Valdez
- Scribe Valdez suggests we may be able to disable the hydraulic locks holding the Overseer's door shut. We should search a nearby utility room for the mechanisms to do so.
Disable the hydraulics in the Utility Room
- With the hydraulics controlling the door to the Overseer's office disabled, it is now time to confront Dr. Blackburn and bring him to justice.
