It's not the building radiation that will kill you, it's that even with every anti-rad perk available, at around five meters from the door, it spikes to a level that will kill you almost instantly.

But by that token, it is possible to get to the door of Vault 87 without cheats using gratuitous amounts of rad-away.

Apparently, it is not the high amount of rads that hit you but a dangerous spike that occurs after putting in the code (think vault 87 radiation).Hell, drowning would have been a much more Karmic Death you've been working all this time to provide a source of water that will save millions of lives from the effects of radiation, so what's a better ending? Being killed by the same radiation you've been dealing with for the whole game, or being killed by the purified water itself?.That would have been just as cheap, but not as Wall Bangeresque. Why, oh WHY, did they have to make it RADIATION that killed you?!? Would it have taken that much more effort to come up with something different? Hell, it's a giant water tank, they could just as easily DROWNED you. Even if it was higher, I had a hoard of like 50 Rad-Away by the end of the game. Page maker here: But seriously, if you pop a Rad-X before going in, and with six or seven endurance, it's only like 20 rads a second (IIRC).Poking stick schematics: requires three crutches, a tin of wonder glue and a railway spike.Just imagine the badass, Power Armor clad hero (Or villain if you prefer) trying to poke buttons on a highly advanced console with a long stick while Lyons and Fawkes watch awkwardly.

Small note: That idea made me laugh harder than I should have.

I'm hoping that the Brotherhood of Steel expansion gives you the option of picking up a nearby stick, opening the door up only a little bit, and poking the buttons with the stick.

A rather grating example of Gameplay and Story Segregation if there ever was one. Fawkes who is, we have been told, IMMUNE TO RADIATION. Noble Hero, or Craven Coward? One problem: during this difficult decision making process, Fawkes (your Super Mutant sidekick) is standing- nay, hulking - in the background. Okay, you have to choose between sacrificing yourself in the highly irradiated control room or convincing Paladin Lyons to do it.
