Show No Mercy

Show No Mercy is a Brotherhood of Steel main quest in Fallout 4.

Detailed walkthrough
Meet Elder Maxson on the flight deck for the Sole Survivor's first assignment as a Brotherhood Knight after becoming familiar with the Prydwen and the crew.

Maxson's orders are to travel to Fort Strong, exterminate the super mutant forces and secure the armory, which will give the Brotherhood an advantage in the upcoming war.

Step onto the Vertibird and man the minigun. After a short trip, the aircraft will circle the area while the player character uses the minigun to kill the super mutant behemoth (and any remaining super mutants after the Vertibird lands).

Disembark and remove all indicated super mutants. Next, enter the armory and wipe out all hostiles on every floor of the building.

Talk to Paladin Danse, who decides to stay and make sure the armory is secure (one can also pass a medium speech check and ask why he hates super mutants so much).

Return to the Prydwen and speak to Maxson for a reward of Vertibird signal grenades.


 * If the Sole Survivor skips the speech check and instead outright agrees with Danse, they will earn his respect and raise their relationship level.
 * If Danse's relationship level has already been raised to the point where he shares his history, no speech check will be available. Instead, there will be a dialogue option that refers to said history.
 * The option to purchase extra signal grenades from Proctor Teagan is unlocked after the completion of this quest.
