Fallout 4 lost companion bug

lost companion

Fallout 4 has its fair share of bugs, but none are worse than trying to find a lost companion who isn’t where you told them to go! I’ve lost many companion somewhere in the commonwealth, and I’m here to help you save time and energy looking for them!

Again, Piper, Dogmeat, Valentine…even [redacted] Paladin Dance, they sometimes like to go off and do their own thing without really letting you know. So, when this happens to you, take my advice and look in the following areas:

  1. Check in and around the city you told them to go to.
  2. Check at their house.
  3. Check the locations of all quests you have, if they are affiliated with a quest they will be there…or the place within the quest they are supposed to be. (Dogmeat disappeared on me and couldn’t be found, then showed up in the middle of a Valentine quest!)
  4. Check the area where you first met them.
  5. And last place to look, check the area where you left them last (dismissed them). They could be stuck on a frickin rock…again.

*[EDIT] – edited to remove a phrase used referring to Paladin Dance as a person born out of wedlock, that may have been deemed as offensive or derogatory but some entities.
