“Traveling with ED-E has given you a chance to bond with him, unlocking five ranks of potential bonuses.”— In-game description
Camarader-E is a companion perk in the Fallout: New Vegas add-on Lonesome Road.
Effects
Applicable to Courier and both ED-E and its Lonesome Road counterpart, the perk has five ranks that grant the following improvements:
| Rank | Description |
|---|---|
| 1 | Weapon Condition Bonus (daily 25% weapon condition repair dialogue option) |
| 2 | Energy Cell Manufacture (daily Energy or Microfusion Cell creation dialogue option) |
| 3 | Increased DT (+2 DT) |
| 4 | Damage Bonus (+5 beam weapon damage)1 |
| 5 | V.A.T.S. Attack Bonus (+5% V.A.T.S. targeting) |
1 Affects the same weapons as the Laser Commander perk.
Ranks are obtained by retrieving Eyebot Upgrade Circuit Boards from Destroyed Eyebots found throughout The Divide, as part of the ED-Ecated challenge. Each board grants one rank of the perk.
Notes
The Courier can pass Repair and Explosives skill checks with ED-E to modify the effects of the first two ranks:
| Rank | Skill | Changes |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Repair 35 | Weapon Condition Bonus now repairs 35% weapon condition instead of 25%. |
| 2 | Repair 65 | Energy Cell Manufacture now produces 35 cells instead of 20. |
| 2 | Explosives 35 | Energy Cell Manufacture now produces 35 Flamer Fuel instead of cells. |
| 2 | Explosives 65 | Energy Cell Manufacture now produces three Satchel Charges instead of cells. |
Bugs
After you rescue ED-E, it may have more hit points than before but could lose the DT bonus.- When ED-E repairs a weapon that has a weapon mod attached which improves the weapon's condition, the durability of the weapon will actually decrease, rather than increase.
