Notes[]

  • Zip will only trade one reward item (or group of items) for one bottle of Nuka-Cola per day.
  • If Zip gives the Lone Wanderer a 10mm bullet, he calls it "lucky," but there is nothing special about it.
  • He does not accept ice cold Nuka-Cola or Nuka-Cola Quantum.
  • The Lone Wanderer says they will give an "ice cold bottle" of Nuka-Cola in the dialogue box, but only a regular Nuka-Cola is taken from inventory and is required for the quest.
  • If Zip trades a Nuka-Cola for 5.56mm rounds the dialogue box refers to the ammo as .556 rounds.
