So before attempting to raise the maximum happiness of a settlement, first focus on leveling and collecting bottle caps, perhaps until the main quest is finished. This is truly one of the more daunting challenges that can be found in Fallout 4's post-apocalyptic Bostonian wasteland.
This guide is for those looking to raise the happiness of their settlements with hope of unlocking the Benevolent Leader achievement/trophy, as well those that that just want tips on raising their settlements' happiness levels in general.
Happiness is also important for players who want to unlock the 'Benevolent Leader' trophy/achievement in Fallout 4, but as stated previously, it's no easy feat. Managing settlements and raising the happiness of the settlers living therein is one of the more challenging gameplay elements of Fallout 4.
Much like in past games, the junk found throughout the game world can be collected, but in Fallout 4 the parts can then be used to build and improve settlements created throughout the wasteland. One of the biggest ways Fallout 4 differs from its predecessors is its focus on crafting and settlement building.
