-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Starting Cave

There are two possible ways to exit the cave.
The first is to initiate the combat before the first rat aggroes and use combat bug to skip the three rats.
Then exit the combat in the safe area.

Second method is to let each rat attack you and move ahead exactly 9 hexes and exit the combat.
It is possible that rat may move out of the way and thus save a couple of seconds.

The first way is easier and more reliable, it may be also faster if any rat actually manages to attack the character.
Using the other method is a more risky strategy, but it will be faster if rat manages to move away from the character.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cathedral

In a straight line, walking to Cathedral takes about 50 seconds, excluding random encounters.
Avoiding some of the rocky areas can save about to 8 seconds.
Going through Junktown is advised, because while passing through it's zone you are immune to random encounters.
Same could be said about Boneyard, but it is a bit off the route.

First thing you need to do after getting to Cathedral is to get robes.
Get to the second area and head to the room on the left with a small green box and pick the lock.
Get super-stimpacks and apply 3 of them to the shopkeeper in the room to the right and wait 10 minutes.
Collect the robe from his body and head to the door leading to the stairs.
Steal the COC badge from the nearby woman and equip both the badge and the robe.
Picking the door's lock is faster but with such low picklocking there is a very small chance to do it.
Unlock the door with the badge and go upstairs.
Get to the 4th floor (the last one) and pick the lock of the gray container in the room to the south.
Collect Powerfist and Tesla armor. Now open the door to the right and speak with Morpheus.
(2)(1)(2)(1)

As soon as the conversation ends you have to mash 'A' button to enter the combat mode before Master starts the dialogue.
Head south and let the combat end after you use your action points.
As long as you have 1 perception, you won't be attacked in the fleshy corridor.
Get to the elevator on the left side that leads to floor nr 4. You need to pick two locks on your way.
When you get to the floor nr 4, pick the door leading to the terminal.
Use science on the terminal and as soon as you see the message about arming the warhead, enter combat and get through the door (about 15 action points are required to exit the aggro zone of the supermutants).
You have to enter the combat precisely after the message appears, if you do it too early you will interrupt the animation on the science skill, if you do it too late the supermutants will kill you.
Get to the floor nr 3. Now head to the elevator in the middle and unequip the robe before entering. Get to the floor nr 1.
Wait till Jeremiah starts the conversation with you.
(3)(3)(1)

If all goes well you will be kicked out of the building and you can exit and go straight to the Junktown.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Junktown

- You can enter Junktown only after 6 AM.
- You can talk to Killian only after 7 AM.

Level up and get the Bonus HtH Damage perk.Talk to Killian and end the conversation as soon as you start it.
(6)

Kill the assassin - you can attack him as soon as he appears, 2-3 punches. Killian will initiate dialogue after combat ends.
(3)(1)(1)

Now go to Gizmo and speak with him.
(2)(3)(1)(1)(3)(2)(2)(1)

Go back to Killian.
(2)(1)(1)(5)(1)(1)

Speak with Lars.
(1)(1)

Now before combat begins you can enter combat mode manually, get over to Gizmo and punch him.
Kill Gizmo and his bodyguard and exit Junktown.
Head to Raiders Camp.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Raiders

You need to kill Garl and 8 raiders or 13 raiders. First one is faster so get to the north-east tent and punch the closest raider.
Use up all your ammunition for Powerfist and then unequip it and use basic unarmed attacks.
After you killed Garl and 8 raiders leave for Necropolis. 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Necropolis

Go straight to canals. Go to the next section in the north-west. Then go north. In the last section climb up the ladder.
Go to the middle canal, right next to the super mutant, he won't attack.
Once inside you need to enter combat right before the first rat.
Collect junk and go back to the surface. Talk to Harry.
(2)(1)

Go to the water pump and use junk on it. Now you have to go to the crypt and take the water chip.
Go to the last cell on the right and go down the ladder twice. On the first floor you need to combat bug past the two glowing ones.
Go to the 3rd floor, combat bug past another two glowing ones, take the chip and go all the way back to Harry again and talk to him.
(1)(1)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Military Base

And you are inside Military Base. Talk to Lieutenant.
(1)(1)(1)(1)

Run away from him and go to the north-west room with computers. Use science on terminal and use it.
(1)(4)(1)

Equip robes and go down to floor nr 3. Supermutant will approach you.
(1)(2)(1)

Go to the elevator in north-west part of the floor. Go to the 1st floor. Exit the building.
You will be approached by another supermutant.
(3)(1)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If everything went right you should have the following endings:
- Super mutants: 	Ending 1 (destroying Cathedral and then Mariposa Military Base)
- Necropolis:	 	Water pump maintained
- Shady Sands: 	 	New California Republic
- Junktown:	 	Killian takes control
- Brotherhood of Steel:	Drive mutants away
- Khans:		Destroyed as a fighting force
- Vault Dweller:	Ending 2 (not killing the Vault Dweller)

**Recommended Stats:**

SPECIAL: 10, 01, 10, 01, 07, 10, 01

Traits: Good Natured & Skilled

Tagged Skills: Lockpick, Science & Speech

**Cave and Wasteland #1:**

Run past the rats in the cave, using either the combat glitch or quickly ending combat when you move far enough away from any rats that aggro on you.

Exit to the wasteland, head South-West till you hit desert then North-East to the Military Base, combat glitching any encounters.

**Military Base:**

Run up to the Mutant, press 2, 1. Press 2, 1, 1 in dialogue with the Lieutenant.

Run to the terminal, science it, and press 1, 4, 1 to activate the silent self-destruct.

Run to the elevator and head onto the 3rd floor.

Press 0 to bypass the black armored guard when you encounter him and use the combat glitch to bypass the other guard.

If you have more than 30HP left, you can head through a force-field, if not heal with a stimpack.
Head to the elevator and exit on floor 1.

Run out of the base, and when confronted by the door guard, press 3, 1 in order for him to let you pass.
Run to the exit grid and skip the cut-scene once it loads.

**Wasteland #2 & Cathedral:**

Head South-East to the Cathedral, taking care to avoid the mountains if possible.

Enter the Cathedral, and then level up.

If you are using sneak, put that at 85% and the tagged skills at 120%. If not, make them 130%.

Unlock the door leading to the staircase, then head up to Morpheus, using the combat glitch to avoid combat.

Talk to Morpheus and press 2, 1, 2, 1.

As his dialogue closes spam A + 0 to skip the Master’s dialogue and enter the combat glitch.

Run down, taking care not to aggro the mutant in the South-East corner.

Run past everyone towards the bomb elevator, pressing 0 and then Quick-save/Quick-loading to skip the Patrolling guard aggroing.

Move past the mutants to the door blocking the elevator, unlock this and then the elevator itself.

Go to the 4th floor and use the Sneak Strat or Combat glitch strat to activate the bomb. (See below for explanation of these strats.)

Combat glitch to the elevator, head back to Floor 3, then go to the other elevator.

Exit on Floor 1 and a man will speak to you.

Press 3, 3, 1 and he will kick you out of the Cathedral.

Run to the exit grid then spam P + 0 to skip the ending slides, and quickly initiate and exit the overseer’s dialogue, ending the run.

**Bomb Strats:**

*1) The Sneak Strat (Easier to execute, slower.):*

If you were in sneak before Quick-saving, this will not work.

You must sneak after Quick-saving/Quick-loading.

In sneak mode, use Science to activate the bomb.

A mutant will come over and punch you. If you get a message telling you that you are not skilled enough, Quick-load and try again.

Otherwise, move 9 spaces so you are directly under the door-frame.

Enter Sneak and hit enter to exit combat. If it does not let you exit combat, try spamming enter and 1 but if it still does not you will need to Quick-load and try again.

*2) The Combat Glitch Strat (Hard to execute, much faster.)*

Use science on the bomb.

You will have a tiny window between activating the bomb and the mutant turning hostile.

You must activate the combat glitch during this window.

If you are hit, it was too late, and you need to Quick-load.

If no text appears confirming the bomb was set, you were too early.

Exit out of combat and try again.

If you are in combat, the mutant hasn’t aggroed, and there is a message confirming the bomb is active, you have successfully executed the strat.

Finished! Well done. Max Quests completed.

As a quick side note; there is a path to take in the Brotherhood area when asked to go find the military base. When talking to Maxson, you can do (1)(2)(3)(1) until he kicks you out. This saves you having to run out of the Brotherhood manually by taking the elevators. When you come back from the Military Base, you can enter as normal. I have not tested this, but a runner named 30Cents says that this works. Good luck with your runs!

Glitchless Text Guide (wip)

*Last Updated 19th of March 2025.*

**Recommended Stats:**

SPECIAL: 10, 01, 10, 01, 07, 10, 01

Traits: Good Natured & Skilled 

Tagged Skills: Lockpick, Science & Speech

(This is the same as any% but still optimal afaik)

**Settings:** 

It is necessary to ensure that your violence is set to “maximum blood” to ensure the correct death animations.

**Cave and Wasteland #1:**

Run past the rats in the cave, quickly ending combat when you move far enough away from any rats that aggro on you.

Take care not to accidentally do the combat glitch or speed click.

Exit to the wasteland, head South-West till you hit desert then North-East to the Military Base.

As you cannot use the combat glitch, you may lose a lot of runs to encounters.

**Military Base:**

Run up to the Mutant, press 2, 1.

Press 2, 1, 1 in dialogue with the Lieutenant.

Run away from, then around the Lieutenant.

Pick the locker open and take the Plastic Explosives and the Key.

Activate and plant the explosives on Van Hagan (the robed man).

Use first aid (or doctor) on yourself to pass time.

Take the Robes from Van Hagan’s exploded corpse, taking care not to enter the aggro range of the mutant guard.

Run to the terminal, science it, and press 1, 4, 1 to activate the silent self-destruct.

Run to the elevator and head onto the 3rd floor.

Equip the robes, heal if you need too, and ensure you have the key equipped for later. (If you have more than 30HP left, you can head through a force-field guaranteed, if not maybe heal with a stimpack.)

The first, stationary mutant guard will engage you in dialogue, press 1, 2, 1 then continue past him.

Head to the elevator and exit on floor 1.

Remove the robes and heal if needed.

Run out of the base, and when confronted by the door guard, press 3, 1 in order for him to let you pass.

Run to the exit grid and skip the cut-scene once it loads.

**Wasteland #2 & Cathedral:**

Head South-East to the Cathedral, taking care to avoid the mountains if possible.

Enter the Cathedral and then level up.

Put sneak at least 85% and Speech and Lockpick at ~130%.

Unlock the door leading to the staircase, equip the robe, then unlock the door leading to the basement.

On the Bookcase furthest down, use lockpick on the left side to find the hidden latch.

Use this latch then run to the vault door guards, pressing 2, 1 for their dialogue.

Run to the elevator and head to floor 3. Run past everyone towards the bomb elevator, unlock the door and then the elevator itself.

Go to the 4th floor and unlock the elevator behind you.

Unlock the door leading to the bomb then stand on the tile directly below the bomb terminal.

In sneak mode, use the key to activate the bomb. A mutant will come over and punch you.

Move 9 spaces so you are directly under the door-frame. Enter Sneak and hit enter to exit combat.

If it does not let you exit combat, try spamming enter and 1 but if it still does not you will need to Quick-load and try again.

If you were in sneak before Quick-saving, this will not work, you must sneak after Quick-saving.

Exit the enemy aggro range, exit sneak and head back to Floor 3, then go to the other elevator.

Remove your robe, then enter the elevator.

Exit on Floor 1 and a man will speak to you.

Press 3, 3, 1 and he will kick you out of the Cathedral.

Run to the exit grid then spam skip the ending slides, and quickly initiate and exit the overseer’s dialogue using the P key, ending the run.

Make sure not to invalidate your whole run here by glitching out of his dialogue.

**Dialogue Choices Quick Reference:**

Mutant Guard 1: 2, 1

Lieutenant: 2, 1, 1

Vats Terminal: 1, 4, 1

Mutant Guard 2: 1, 2, 1

Mutant Guard 3: 3, 1

Vault Door Guard: 2, 1

Jeremiah: 3, 3, 1

Overseer: P



Max Quests video tutorial (up to date)

More or less a commentated run (that's why there's some crashes and little mistakes), but it contains the newest strats. I'm going to update this whenever new strats are found.

Video tutorial collection (up to date)

So, I decided to create a collection of tutorials that I'm willing to update if we find new glitches/strats. This applies to multiple categories (and I will add more routes to this playlist)

Unfortunately, because of the OBS update, I didn't notice my audio messed up, so it's a bit more quiet than it should be.
