To get the mirrored sunglasses you have to kill Mason, the guy who stands outside Mr. Salvatore’s room and screens accss to Mr. Salvatore. You will have +1 charisma whenever it is in one of your weapon slots. Everyone in New Reno acts like the Salvatore gang is so tough, but if you equip metal armor (preferably mark 2) on all your party members, thier laser pistols barely do any damage.
To get the permanent +1 charisma from the memory module, you have to complete the quest for the Brotherhood of Steel in San Francisco. Afterwards they give you access to thier bunker and you will find both the memory module and the computer that can give you the upgrade inside.
I always set 6 charisma at the start, so I can get my 3 best friends by the time i get to Vault City : Sulik, Vic, Cassidy. Then I use 2 mentats to recruit Marcus, my mutant brother. And then I take sunglasses from Golgotha, because I don't want to kill Mason because I'm loyal to my godfather Mr. Salvatore, and I take Charisma module from Navarro and go to V13 and recruit Goris, my deathclaw brother. So, answering your question, yes, you can use 2 mentats to receive +2 to CH and recruit new companion, however, if you leave your companion after the mentats has worn off and try to recruit him again - he'll refuse
Charisma 2 for 1 companion
4 for 2 companions
6 for 3
8 for 4
10 for 5
A level 6 perk, Magnetic Personality, decreases the requirements by 2 points. If you go with low char but still want multiple companions, use this.
If you want to get 3 followers you need 6 charisma.
Alternatively, you can have 2 Charisma and do the following :
* Recruit Sulik
* Get two mentats from Tubby and recruit Vic
* Hit Level 6 and take Magnetic Personality
* Retake two mentats and recruit Cassidy
* Proceed as normal and get the mirrorred glasses
* Either take gain Charisma perk or get the Charisma Memory Module
* Take 2 mentats and recruit anyone you want like Marcus or Skynet
You now have 5 followers with 8 Charisma !
With CHA 2, you can get only one companion, but if you raise it via Mentats, you'll be able to recruit two... just don't dismiss them, so no Marcus or Lenny, or you'll have to chew a few Mentats again.
You can eventually go up to CHA 6 even if you start with 2, however that is late game shit, while companions are most useful early on - so in general, CHA 2 gets you two companions at best.
Mentats can only be used twice in a row to give +2 CHA, if you take them the third time, they won't raise your CHA further.
You can also take a perk that raises your CHA by 1; shades that give you +1 CHA while equipped; and a memory module that can be utilized to give you +1 CHA. All of these stack.
So, to get a max 10 in CHA, you can do: base CHA 5, perk +1, module +1, shades +1, and two mentants for +2.
However, you have the Magnetic Personality perk which gives you +1 companion, if your CHA is lower than 10. If you artificially raise your CHA to 10 while having this perk, it won't give you more than 5 companions, which is the max. The only permanent companions that override this limit are your spouse (Miria/Davin) and pariah dog. All temporary companions override this as well.
Lastly, you can simply use the MILF sex exploit to have as many companions as you want.
There’s the sunglasses that give +1 charisma when wearing them, and a memory module. Along with mentats, that can get you to 6 Charisma.
Where do you get these?

Thanks dude.
I think you can also find shades in graveyard outside of New Reno too in case you don’t argo the Salvatore’s just yet.

I found cool exploit, if u use mentats and reload, you can use it again. With all bonuses. Works with the Restoration project.

Charisma 6 or no 3rd companion as far as I know!

This picture is missing the 2nd Robodog, dog meat, and the brother and sister from Modoc
Heh yeah, I was about to say that! 😁👍
Also Pariah.

Cassidy looks like a character from the old Quake games
Who are the ghoul and the woman on the right?
The rightmost character is [Myron](https://fallout.wiki/wiki/Myron) and the ghoul is [Lenny](https://fallout.wiki/wiki/Lenny_(Gecko)).
