Fallout 4 has several factions players control, each having their own particular views on society and their own plans for the future of the commonwealth and humanity as a whole. Each of these factions provides a new base or two, as well as some unique companions for you to recruit. But that’s not all. Each of these factions can provide you with an extra ability that will really help players out when duking it out with the evils of the wasteland.
One of these abilities is Vertibird support. Vertibirds are those cool machine gun carrying aircraft that you’ll see buzzing over your head near the docks and the Boston commons. Support will allow you to call one to pick you up and take you where you need to go. This is especially usefull if you’re overburdened and need to get back home without dropping anything. The ability to rain hell upon unsuspecting Raiders and Super Mutants as you’re transported is invaluable.
To unlock support you’ll need to join the Brotherhood of Steel. After doing so you only need to complete the first quest they give you (Shadow of Steel) before they grant you Knight status and provide you with Vertibird Signal Grenades.
The Brotherhood of Steel is one of the groups that you can actually lose favor with, and if you do you will lose this ability so keep that in mind when making decisions late in the game.
