Does she ever stand up? I put her chair down in the middle of the road real quick to get the quest out of the way. I can’t assign her to anything, and she’s still there even if I wait till 3am Question

Easy. Assigned her as a provisioner to the furthest settlement you can.

finishing her quest not only lets you move the chair, but also gives you some really good ammo for the junk mortar.

I just persuade her that the last dose isn't worth dying for.
Maybe I'm just built different? I also put her chair indoors exactly where I want her to be, every save, and it's honestly great how she's couch locked like a college stoner so you can just decorate around her like a...well there's an analogy in there somewhere.

The trick is to set her chair at the entrance where raiders tend to spawn. That way she provides a ready made decoy and sponges bullets.

Bonus points if you set it up like a watchtower or a porch for her.

I always build a tower for her because she'll fall forwards off the chair when she croaks.
Then I try and catch her in a bath tub

I've seen someone build stairs as high as the build limit will allow and then put her chair up there. She has to walk all the way up those endless stairs to get to her precious chair.

You can punch her a few times until she aggroes then sheath your fists to make her passive again. Then before she sits down again move her chair. Save just before doing it incase something goes wrong though

I haven’t activated the MinuteMen in my last couple playthroughs. You can run right past Preston and straight to the power armor and it doesn’t change the storyline one iota. You can still access all the settlements and back whichever faction you want.

u/LisaMichelle88 23d ago
You have to convince her to stop taking drugs with a bunch of charisma checks before you can assign her to anything in a settlement and once you do she never asks you for the chair. I always get her off drugs then assign her to help with crops so she walks around like everyone else and goes to sleep at nighttime. 👌🏻

You can kill her by making her overdose on drugs, simply give her drugs whenever she asks and she’ll eventually die a horrible death at your hands.

Yeah I normally put her into a little side room in the house across the lone survivor's old home alarm for a few other random bits and pieces kind of make it look like it's the storage closet and just will play that I basically put her into the best storage closet of a the lone survivor's old neighbors with some random knick knacks a bed and her damn chair at least then I can also pretend that I was courteous enough to give her a roof over her head but no window unfortunately

u/IgnisOfficial 23d ago
If you let her keep doing drugs and have built the chair, she doesn’t move. If you get her off drugs she becomes a regular settler in terms of function and can be assigned to do shit. My vote is to give her a high-damage legendary melee weapon and assign her to a guard post to make full use of her disgustingly good strength stat
2
u/PleasantMonk1147 23d ago
Well, you got 2 options. #1: Tell her to get off drugs. She will then go work in the fields as sober as ever and also get some likes from companions who are at sanctuary. #2: Give her all of her drugs she asks for. In doing so, she will OD and fall out of the chair.

I like to make her chair on a platform 30 feet up, that way you can really see her ragdoll at the end of her quest

u/kritter2545 22d ago
One time a little side quest popped up: Help defend Sanctuary. She actually got up! So I hurried up and moved her chair to the top of the house's garage that is closest to the path on the way to vault 111.
I had plopped her down on the "house next door's" foundation (for the same reason as OP) before I laid any fresh foundation or floors down. Before that, i just floored everything around her and built a shack around her that was big enough to put all my stores in it. I put a TV in front of her, an ash tray next to her, and a lamp directly over her head. Lol.
