Fallout 2 Hints
How do I get a cybernetic brain out of storage?
1 of 3: Unfortunately, it may require a very high science skill to complete the task successfully, and you only get one chance to pass the skill check on top of that. So I recommend saving before you try this.
2 of 3: Odds are, you'll only be able to retrieve 2 or 3 of the brain specimens. You can either keep trying until you get the right brain out of storage, or you can just give up and take a lesser brain.
3 of 3: Note that if you opt for a lesser brain (I'd recommend at least trying to get a normal human brain if you can), you will be able to complete the robot, but you won't be able to download SkyNet into it fully. So you can either come back and try again later (after restoring, of course), or you can take the lesser robot and leave the quest at that.
