I keep feeling like I need a way to train dodging skill without going out and getting punched in the face repeatedly. That would be nice.

Hey, I know. We should be able to spar with NPCs when we become friends with them in order to train skills using XP without having to face a horde of a thousand zombies and die.

You can actually become friends with NPCs and have them train you in skills, btw. That's in, last I checked.

I thought you could only get them to train you after you completed a quest.

Or can you get them to follow you and then have them repeatedly train your skills...? If so, that would be amazing.

Depends on the NPC, your intelligence and speech skills, of course some NPC's won't do anything for you until you do a quest, namely fetch antibiotic one.

Yes, but they require trading, or doing favours (quest) each time they train you.

More specifically, doing quests for NPCs gives you credit in the trading screen. The trading balance is what is used to pay for training.
So when you tell an NPC that they owe you, they literally do, and you can even see the dollar amount the game assigned to how much they owe.

Having just started the game and asked my shelter-mate to share some equipment, he hands me... a Boeing XM-P Plasma Rifle. What the?

Well, I ain't complaining. Is there any place to get hydrogen?

Aye, but when you play a fighter, only doors will know fear in your presence.

Wow, you're one lucky asshole, you.
Too bad that this being your first time, you'll probably die pretty fast anyway :/.

My apologizes for my badly worded post... should probably fix it. :P I have been playing Cata for quite a while now but since no hydrogen has been found by any of my characters (Hulks sometimes, necromancers and zombies almost certainly always.), I felt the need to ask.

EDIT: Oh and thank you. :) The last time I asked an NPC for anything was a month ago... the NPC gave me an active grenade that time.
