Nick Valentine – Android companion that has strong computer skills.
Strong – Super Mutant companion that has strong sledgehammer attacks.
Cait – Human companion that is handy with a shotgun.
Codsworth – Robot companion that has flamethrower and melee attacks.
Dogmeat – The first companion you meet in the game might be the only one you need.
Still, despite that last one being the worst companion perk possible, the first two make it all worthwhile, so here’s a list of the best characters in Fallout 4 and where to find them in the Commonwealth. These characters will help fight enemies, spot things you might have missed, and probably stand in a doorway staring at you for five minutes straight (which you can now fix by commanding them to go stand in a corner instead). Who wants to travel the wasteland of post-apocalyptic Boston alone when you can bring a companion along? Some of you might, but for the rest of us, Fallout 4 provides a few options for getting a companion to tag along on your quests.
