📋 About This Mod
Do you want to enter the Legion safehouse to get the Lucky Shades, but don't want the help the Legion in any way? With this mod Lucius will drop the Legion safehouse key on death. This means you won't be able to pickpocket it from him, as it will spawn on him only after he's dead.
If you get the key as normal (Liked reputation with the Legion) and then lately kill Lucius you will probably end up with two keys to the safehouse, but you can live with that.
New in 2. 0: Hsu and McNamara will drop the NCR and Brotherhood safehouse keys on death. The Followers key as been added to Julie Farkas' inventory - you must pickpocket her to get it.
Requirements
Just the base game.
My other mods
