I must have missed it, but how do you actually scalp the gunners to give back to the CPD?

So I certainly don’t know any deeper questions, but once she told me to get them every Gunner I killed anywhere had it in their inventory
 
Does any of you having trouble getting tattoos have any mods that alter the gunners? Perhaps an NPC overhaul mod that changes gear loadouts, spawn rates, or difficulty?

My guess is that our perk is limited to working on vanilla gunner spawns, so I'd need to see some mods that are altering their records to figure out if there's a better condition we can use.

For now, I'll set it up to look for the GunnerFaction - that will hopefully cover most of the mods that might be tweaking them.
 
Hmm - looks like that's already how we have it conditioned. Could one of you struggling to get the tattoos make a save the next time you kill a Gunner and he doesn't have one, and then send it to me?

I am starting to get some tattoos. Maybe out of 20 to 40 gunners per settlement raid - 2 to 4 tatts. @LCdr Frog wasn't getting any - his save would be best.

Oh, and I am using no faction modifications and ran xEdit with no conflicts. Maybe it is a % thing - or location related - gunners attacking tenpines has none, but gunners attacking country crossing yes... based on difficulty level? I do have part of my survival levels unlocked but still, no xEdit conflict.

I did get some turned into Lena and got bounty, but she still has the quest to capture the HQ for the CPD - which is already done - dialogue only, no new quest given.

I have no mods which modify Gunners per say, however, after exiting the game and coming back, the tattoos started appearing on the gunners body.
 
I'll just jump in to say that I didn't see a single lootable Tattoo for the entirety of the run through Vault 75 with Aiden. I've seen them on other Gunners out in the world, though... not at 100% chance, but I've definitely got a couple in my inventory waiting for next time I go back to BADTFL. The "Gunner Outfit Pack" + the LL Integration child-mod don't seem to be interfering with that.

EDITnote a few minutes later: Yeah, the handful of Gunners in the Concord Sewers once we got back there did have both the lootable Tattoo and the modded outfits, so it can't be that.

I'm able to collect the tattoos but when I try to return them to Lena there is no dialogue option to give them to her/complete the quest.
If you have completed "Catastrophe Prevention Drive" -
Killing Lt. Elisher
, then Lena no longer wants them.
The devs have a "To Do" task to remove the quest from your miscellaneous quest log.
 
After running through the V75 Ch2 quest I noticed that I wasn't getting any Tattoos either. Checking the CK, the gunners there are in a custom faction (not the vanilla gunner faction) which the bounty trait wasn't set up for. We might need to add some extra factions to the trait.

I had no problems getting tattoos but after completing the CPD quest line (so far) no more tattoos and can't hand any in (I think i still have a few in my inventory).So I would assume it works as intended (if you have done the CPD quest line you will understand depending on the choices) but would still like to be able close the bring tattoos quest.
