Perfect Fallout 4 Settlement

Step 1: Get a Settlement

Preston Garvey: “Another settlement needs your help.”
You: 😐
Congratulations, you’re now the mayor of Nowhere.

Step 2: Build Stuff

Put down one bed, one chair, and sixteen generators for no reason.
Everything must hum loudly — that’s how you know it’s working.

Step 3: Defenses

Build turrets. All facing the same direction.
Raiders will 100% come from the other side.

Step 4: Settlers

Give everyone a job so they stop complaining about beds.
If they still complain, build more beds. Preferably on the roof.

Step 5: Loot Everything

If it shines, pick it up.
If it doesn’t shine, pick it up anyway.
You’ll “need it later.” (You won’t.)

Step 6: Power Armor Life

You are a god.
Until your fusion core dies.
Then you’re just a shiny pedestrian.

Step 7: Repeat

Another settlement needs your help.
Another one.
And another one.
There is no escape.

Pro Tip: Fast travel away during an attack.
When you come back, the game probably solved it for you.

Bonus: 16 generators = happiness 100%.
Noise level: also 100%.

Damn this is what I call a useful guide, and also don't forget to always get stopped on what you're doing (like any important quest per se) because the same settlement is being attacked like 30 times in a week
