Far Harbor Endings - Fallout 4 Guide - IGN (2024)

This page will encompass the different Far Harbor Endings that arise from completing the Far Harbor Walkthrough as part of the main story in the Far Harbor DLC. Note that this sections contains spoilers to the multiple endings to the DLC.

Once you have completed accessing the first three of DiMA's memories during the Best Left Forgotten quest, you'll be able to choose the fate of several important places and people, and will effect who survives, which rewards you get, and any questlines that may get severed. There are potentially three main endings, with many subtle variations, all of which center around three different story quests

The Way Life Should Be

The fate of Acadia includes the likes of DiMA, Kasumi Nakano - and potentially even Captain Avery and High Confessor Tektus.

Keep DiMA's Secret

After uncovering DiMA's secret medical facility in The Way Life Should Be quest, you'll have the opportunity to confront DiMA directly or go to Allen Lee with the evidence. Speaking with DiMA, you can forgive him and cover up his crime, or try to encourage him to turn himself in (or just do it anyway) If you help him, you'll gain a unique Synth Armor - Acadia's Shield - and start the path to the ending where peace can be achieved via the Reformation quest.

Turn DiMA In or Tell His Secret

If you convince DiMA to turn himself in, or tell Allen Lee, you'll trigger a potential raid on all of Acadia. If you let DiMA make his case, you'll have the chance to plead for the rest of Acadia to be spared - but this will only happen if you've been helping the people of Far Harbor. Similarly, if you tell Allen about DiMA's secret, you won't be able to stop the raid - but you can ask for Avery not to die.

If Acadia is raided, everyone inside will die - including Kasumi, which puts a damper on the end of the story. However, you will get a unique Lever Action Rifle - Lucky Eddy - as well as a Perk that boosts damage at low health.

Cleansing the Land

The fates of both Far Harbor and The Nucleus can be decided in the Cleansing the Land quest, as you uncover both the Wind Farm Kill Switch, and the Nuclear Launch Key.

Destroy Far Harbor

If you decide to flip the switch on Far Harbor (either persuading DiMA it's the only choice - or doing it behind his back) everyone in Far Harbor will be killed, as will any quests relating to the town. The Children of Atom will love this, and you can speak to the High Confessor Tektus to recieve a unique Recon Marine Armor - Atom's Bulwark - as well as a Perk that increases weapon damage based on radiation.

Destroy The Nucleus

If you decide to launch the nuclear missile inside The Nucleus (which can be done with or without the High Confessor's permission), the entire place will be destroyed, as will any related sidequests. Doing so will grant you a Perk that increases all forms of damage resistance, and Allen Lee will give you some caps as a bonus.

Destroy Both

If you decide neither faction is worth saving, you can destroy both of them - either at the same time or one after the other to maximize the aforementioned perks and rewards. Note that with both places demolished, DiMA will refuse to speak to you - though the rest of Acadia won't be hostile.

Reformation

Assuming you kept DiMA's secret, you can then begin the Reformation quest, but it will involve another dark deed - replacing the High Confessor Tektus with a synth that will promote peace. If you can stomach it, go through with the quest, and return to DiMA to be granted a Perk that boosts your damage resistance at low health. This will also ensure that all three factions will be peaceful, and you can resolve everyone's quests. If you return to the new High Confessor, you can still get Atom's Bulwark.

Close to Home

As long as Kasumi isn't killed and Acadia is spared from mob justice, you can speak to Kasumi to begin the Close to Home quest, after the deciding the fate of both Acadia, Far Harbor, and The Nucleus. Speak to her and you'll be able to either encourage her to return home, or stay at begin a new life. Return to Kenji and let him know what happened to get your reward - a chest full of items.
