Bug
There is an apparent bug when you go to complete the last portion of this mission. When you enter the hospital in your power armor, Kent is executed immediately. In order to complete this mission with the optional object of saving Kent's life, you must enter the hospital outside of your power armor. 107.4.134.66
Another bug exists in which he will not leave the hospital after being rescued.
Kent is not on his room
After the quest, he didn't go to his place in Goodneighbors and stuck around the basement of the Milton General Hospital.
To move him to The Memory Den, go there on his room, bring up the console and type both "prid 228ac" and "moveto player" to make him appear where he should be. (However, this is not a solution to him being able to upgrade the Silver Shroud Costume, as he will not reactivate the radio even when moved back)
Kent missing
So i got this bug where kent left the hospital and started lounging outside of Sanctuary, beside the red rocket, up the hill.
Burns
It never says how he got burned.
Suit Upgrades
Last line in Background section: "If convinced to carry on, he will offer upgrades to the Silver Shroud costume."
Actually it isn't necessary to convince Kent to carry on. At the point when he says he wants to give up, choosing the "up to you" dialogue option will still enable the upgrades after you meet and talk to him in the Old State House.
As such, the above-mentioned line should be changed to something like, "If rescued, he can offer level-dependent upgrades to the Silver Shroud costume." ...Except I'm not 100% sure if simply rescuing him is the only precondition for the upgrades. Natnair (talk) 08:31, January 15, 2016 (UTC)natnair
