Fallout 3 Hints
How should I handle this Lug-Nut character?
1 of 4: Try to pass the Speech Challenge to get him to back off.
2 of 4: If you can't, quickly gun him down or melee-whack him in V.A.T.S. mode.
3 of 4: Or you can hand the nightwear over to him, then sneak-attack him as he attempts to leave with it to get in some good starting damage.
4 of 4: If you've already started on the "Strictly Business" misc. quest, you can use the mesmetron to enslave him. Be sure to rob him of all his items, including the Naughty Nightwear if you gave it to him, before sending him off to Paradise Falls.
