Looks like no one knows that it is possible to complete the Set's quest of destroying the supermutants at the watershed by just telling him so and cheating him to believe it is true (with high enough Speech). Since not a single walkthrough mentions this, instead all of them call for obedient watershed supermutant extermination as the only way to complete the quest. However this another undiscovered option does exist. The only thing - it is not always available through the dialogue with Set, that's why it seems no one mentions it. I completed this option and successfully received the Garrett's rewards from the fridge without actually killing a single supermutant at the watershed. The only question here's - I don't know what does really trigger this one? I remember I was running through the locations in the linear order (Shady Sands - Vault 15 - Raiders - Junktown - Hub - Necropolis) - and this one was available. In another game when I changed the order, this option disappeared from the dialogue and the only left solution remained was to kill the watershed bastards like all the walkthroughs advise. So I am really curious what is the real trigger for this option of this quest to appear. Does anybody have any knowledge on this?
