How to unlock the Hard trophy

    This is the old school version of difficulty.
    Unlike Supernova, which is like Hardcore on Fallout New Vegas, only more sadistic, this mode lets you save as often as you like so do so.

    The best two companions for this mode is Ellie (she gives some nice health benefits) and Nyoka (She's pretty OP).

    Make sure you have both companion ability perks in your skill tree active. Both Nyoka and Ellie need extra health and armour bonuses. Make sure Nyoka has the ability damage perk in tier three of her perk tree.

    You won't to pick a weapon type you're most comfy with, although I'd suggest ignoring melee as you won't to get some space from enemies. Pick off the weaker adds first as they hit for less dmaage but have higher DPS.

    Make sure you complete all the companion quests and all side quests on Terra-2, Monarch, Scylla and Groundbreaker. Obviously, as with all RPGs, the XP matters most to survival. Like Fallout New Vegas, you only get a perk every even numbered level. So it is worth forcing yourself to get through the side quests.

    Be a nice person and make friends with most factions, this will drive down the cost at vendors and give you a larger force for the end game.

    If you're doing the weakness trophy, don't select any that makes you weak to a weapon type, especially N-type damage and Energy. I made the mistake of taking energy and it made the second half of the main storyline very very long and tedius, as I kept dying.
