Fallout – How much NCR infathe do I gain from arming ARCHIMEDES

fallout-new-vegas

According to The Vault, arming ARCHIMEDES will kill all the NCR troops stationed at HELIOS-I. While that is a regrettable consequence, I really (really) want Euclid's C-Finder.

So when this awe-inspiring weapon goes off, exactly how much NCR infamy am I going to gain? I want to know where my rep with them will stand after the fact. I am currently Liked. I'm OK (I think) with going down to Neutral, but I don't want the NCR to become hostile to me. Yet.

Anyone with GECK access have a good answer on this? (And I don't want to use the glitch involving fast travel, since I want to see the show!)

(Will wearing, say, a Legion or Powder Gangers disguise avoid the infamy?)

Best Answer

Wearing a disguise will avoid the infamy. Toss on your finest toga, yell out your loudest "AVE CAESAR!" and let toast those NCR pigs.

I can smell the bacon from here.
