Fallout 3 Hints

Take the vial of modified FEV.

  • 1 of 3: After you say whether or not you'll help Eden, you have a big decision to make.
  • 2 of 3: Do you want to cause the "president" to initiate its auto-destruct sequence and destroy itself and the Raven Rock base after you escape, or not?
  • 3 of 3: Whether or not you got the auto-destruct started, look down after the conversation is over and use the ZAX panel to get the modified FEV container. (You need to do this even if you don't plan on using it later.)
