The ideal location has to be v88, if you've got the DLC. It comes with a 150 power generator, tons of concrete, and if you DO NOT EVER break down the barricades for the back doors then all enemies attack through the narrow front entrance which is easily defended. That also makes it easy to pick up the legendary items. You don't even have to bury anything.
I tried this, but unfortunately the cages can't be built in interiors. They don't even show up under the Cages menu at all when in 88. They do show up for building in my other settlements, though, so it isn't a case of me just not having them unlocked.
If you're looking at ever doing this again, may I recommend using the Boston Airport and forcing the gunners flood out toward the Brotherhood. That way you can also farm gear and Brotherhood Power Armor from the guards there who respawn. Sometimes you get Legendary Brotherhood guards too, and they help you kill the gunners for free! It's a win, win, win! Unless you love the brotherhood... then maybe it's not a win.
It's da Bonz! :) So good to see a new vid! Lazy settlement building is just what the Survivor needs after saving the Commonwealth. Very enjoyable watch.
Who? Me? naaa, not me! well ok maybe some times... lol. How have you been Mr Ken! (hey i made a rhyme) Looking forward to hanging out with you soon, take care my friend!
If you have Nuka World dlc, that's a perfect place to farm legendaries especially in survival mode. Almost every random encounter locations there have enemy instant respawn when you leave the area at some distant and come back. The legendary spawn chance will be 100% if you complete Open Season. While in Nuka Cade the level 5 prize can also spawn a legendary item, and you can save scumming here. Make a save before enter Nuka Cade and keep reloading the save for legendary you desire, but at least 40000 nuka ticket needed, with plasme weapon is the highest I think, at 42000 tickets. Never found Gauss rifle there tho or any dlc weapon, but for enemy at random encounter location, all weapon are available, except pipe weapon, maybe because I always started Nuka World at very high level.
Warwick might be a perfect area for this since all the enemies attack from one direction. You can even put the gunner cages and generators on the roof and make them unreachable.
Use settlement ambush, block off the back entrance of hangman, and spam turrets on the entrance with the guard post. Great choke point and you can just sit there watching the enemies get blown to bits. I would recommend rushing to grab any legendaries since bodies will despawn fast.
what's up sir EZE great to hear from you, actually i should be asking you what diabolical creations have you been making....lol Ill be seeing you soon my brother!!
Cheap and Lazy, right up my alley. Good video, I honestly did not think about sinking the cages into the ground. Gonna start a new playthrough soon, wanna put a legendary farm on spectacle island.
OOOH Shinny!!, i had not considered doing a Leg Farm at Spectacle island, if you do share your progress with us, i would love to see what you come up with!
@@NastyBonz3D I'm working on it, slowly. I got more elaborate with it than I had intended. I make caps with purified water farms, so need them to spit out more water so I can make more caps.
@@Caldara1 I have a bad habit of picking everything up...LOL... so doing that it don't take long to get some caps up! How many cages are you planning on putting in your farm?
@@NastyBonz3D I made 25 cages. Now I'm out of caps, still need more building materials. Hopefully I will have enough water to cover costs of more shipments.
@@Caldara1 you may be doing this already but incase you are not, have at least one vender in the settlement, the three best are trade, armor and weapon, they have the most caps! then when you get attacked don't do any damage to the attackers (enemies) then you can loot all their items and sell it to the venders, helps get some of your caps back! If you do any damage to the enemies then the venders will only say thanks for the help and you cant access there stores, Tier 4 venders are the exception, they will sell most any time of the day or night!
Fiber optics and crystal can be farmed at jamacin plains idown in the basement reset laser things and keep disabling them 3 per for steel crystal and fiber optics
Bonz it's been a long time since I seen a video of yours and good news I changed my name you can still call me stronggnome but I got a gaming laptop so I'm going to be doing live streaming soon
TH-cam didn't tell me you posted a new vid. Just stumbling into it now. Cheap and lazy could be my middle name. Vault 88 has a lot of nuclear material (100+) for people who have the Vault Tec DLC Looking at this I'm wondering if we could rug glitch the cages into each other to save on concrete foundations. We couldn't rug them 100% into each other to make them look like one cage because we still have to be able to select them individually for repair if we ever need to. I'm guessing we could still reduce their footprint by a large percentage though. I wish there was a perk that would highlight corpses. I'm terrible at finding them. Nice action sequence at the end.
Thanks Sheckie, That's a damn good idea, now it makes me want to do it all over again, lol.... i know it would work for sure and there should be no repair to be done to cages if the foundation is is over them good, so yea i think it would work great, So good to here from you, working on final preparations for weekly streams again, i hope i see you then will be awesome to catch up!!
@@NastyBonz3D If your settlement gets attacked and you don't personally show up to defend it can't the cages get damaged? I know generators can get hurt that way even if they are inside a foundation block. Looking forward to your streams!
Hey, I really enjoyed your survival mode farm video. It was informative and useful. Thank you. I was just curious about how you're able to keep your settlers in normal clothes? Do you use balistic weave or something to beef them up a bit?
No I'm just lazy....lol, a settler cannot be killed by anyone but the player so i really never worry about it but sometimes i do hook them up with some clothing, if i want them to look the part of themed build, BUT it sure don't hurt to have them geared up,
@NastyBonz3D I've heard that they can't be killed, but it seems to be a grey area. I know the player can kill them, although mine prefer suicide, walking in front my gun as I'm firing, lol. I had that happen several times. Now, whenever I fast travel to an attack I quick save as soon the screen goes black. So no more casualties on my end, but I have had several other ones get killed. I spawn in and they're already dead. I was just curious since I haven't picked up the ballistic weave yet I really don't want to put em all in armor. Thanks for the reply. It's much appreciated.
I used to just make all my settlements produce a TON of water and food, and when I set up my defenses I had them connected to a switch and have it turned off so it would act like I had zero defense (idk if that’s actually how it worked, but I always thought it did) and then hope I’d get attacked more often. Then I’d fast travel and just flip the switch to destroy them lol. Didn’t work extremely well, but it was more of a background thing while I played the game normally. But I still have no clue if anything I did actually made me get attacked more often or not.
one of two things, first you don't have it hidden well, it can take damage from explosives as well as ballistic damage, second most of the time if you get a prompt saying a settlement needs your help in defending it and you decide not to go and then it says that the settlement did not succeed in defending its self and it took damage, generally its in the crops, water purifiers, truants and generators, and most of the time you wont know it until you see it in work mode, then it shows that the object needs repair
Gunners have the highest legendary spawn rate, this is why i use gunner cages, The farther south you go the more chances to spawn legendry's, The best place to create a legendary farm is Jamaica plains...... i just use county crossing a lot when playing in survival, Now as far as farming for a certain weapon or armor like a institute weapon you would need to farm them from dungeons...
@@wallythewalrus2964 Okay, but they don't have a higher chance for a legendary to spawn over say like raider cages do they? I think region has more to do with that, I'm thinking I need to build some of these farms in the South where I run into more legendaries just walking around.
In 76 you get the plans from starting up the power plants like mass fusion, there are three that you can do it at,, in FO4 you have to have the forth rank of science before you can make them
I'm a lazy man and there's no way I'm messing around with glitches to get things into position. Can you do an actual lazy man's one instead of a cheap man's one? I just want to slap crap together
le sigh Ran into a resource bug and had to start all over. All my resources kept randomly breaking, and apparently gunner cages are a resource. I am gonna get this working. Bethesda bugginess, gotta love it. (not)
@@asterlawaster hold pick up button (it's X if you in PS4) it will select all connected item including nearby item, so be careful or you might pickup your entire building.
Ok the universe is conspiring to keep me from finishing this build. My desktop crapped out on me. I'm stuck with my crappy little laptop so can't play till desktop gets fixed.
That was very nice!, that was not built in one day...lol. i have a friend Ghost, that builds like that, he has a cyber punk city that was too crazy. he has since moved on and is now using the unreal engine to create his own worlds

14:51 the paint job on the gun...Is that a mod or some magazine I need to find?
He’s using the handmade rifle, its painted with the “Pack” paintjob. You can find it anywhere in Nuka World

You could also hook up a mortar to your siren to launch flares (i think this works) to call for minutemen
