The Gilded Grasshopper

The Gilded Grasshopper is a side quest in Fallout 4.

Quick walkthrough

 * 1) Pick up the Marty Bullfinch file in Nick Valentine's agency. (Optional)
 * 2) Go to Faneuil Hall and find the gilded grasshopper on the roof.
 * 3) Read the note in it, then find the grave just west of Pickman Gallery.
 * 4) Dig up the grave and claim the spoils. (No Shovel required)

Detailed walkthrough

 * After the Sole Survivor reads the file about Marty Bullfinch in Nick Valentine's office, the mission of retrieving him as a missing person, can be obtained.
 * Going to Faneuil Hall and killing all the super mutants (at least fourteen) on all floors, will lead to the roof, where the dead body of Marty Bullfinch and the [gilded grasshopper]] can be found.
 * The gilded grasshopper is atop the golden dome, next to the ruined belltower.
 * Reading the note inside, Food for the grasshopper, points the Sole Survivor to the grave of Shem Drowne near Pickman Gallery containing the skeleton of Shem Drowne, his lootable skull and sword, a gold bar, two silver bars, and three copper bars.

Behind the scenes
The Gilded Grasshopper is evidently based on the Grasshopper weather vane on top of today's Faneuil Hall in Boston, created by Shem Drowne.

Bug
