Forums: Index > Fallout 3 gameplay help > The "Greed is Good" approach


I have decided to take the "Greed is Good" approach to the Tenpenny Tower quest. Ultimately, this is a slight variation of Plan C, that involves killing off all the subjects that need to be convinced AFTER they have been convinced, instead the boring ol' approach of killing everyone. I won't bother taking out other people than the merchants (Lydia Montenegro, Anthony Ling, Margaret Primrose ( M.P is not on the "convince-list", but I'll take her down for the loot)) and Susan Lancaster, since she's at the Strictly Business quest (I'll mezz her). I do this mostly because there are tons of loot to get from the shopkeeps, but also because only some of them are bigots, and I don't want to waste bullets on their sorry hides, just the bad guys.

However, when I started to use the approach, I got a problem: I had troubles with killing a target without making the tower hostile! This is what I did:

When I came back to the Tower, all guards were hostile to me for some reason. I reloaded and tried the same thing with the Shishkebab, but it didn't suffice this time either, still guards would shoot at me when I got to the gate.

What have I done wrong? Is there a structured approach to kill an NPC without making the town hostile? Anyone have a slight idea of what I SHOULD do?
