Hit the red button in the nearby trailer to get the elevator working again, then hop onto it and head back to the Overseer\u2019s office. Make sure you\u2019ve looted everything else in the room. Move the cursor over Dogmeat and hit the A button (on Xbox) to Command him. Then press Y for Talk, Y again for Fetch, and X for Items.<\/p>    <p>Dogmeat will begin searching and grab the Cryolator out of the locked box for you. Note that, while he usually does it right away, it may take a few tries. Open the Command window again, but this time hit X for Trade. This will open the trade interface, and you\u2019ll see that Dogmeat is holding the Cryolator and 200 Cryo Cells for you to grab. <\/p>    <p>You now have one of the most powerful <a href=\"https:\/\/jbsgame.com\/how-to-throw-grenades-in-fallout-4-pc-and-console\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">weapons in <em>Fallout 4<\/em><\/a>. Firing its cryogenic spray continuously at most enemies will cause them to freeze in place for a short time. While not the best gun in the game, it\u2019s still incredibly fun to goof around with for a while and will definitely give your fledgling Sole Survivor a leg up in the ghoul-ridden post-apocalyptic wasteland.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Put those mutants on ice from day
