  • Rank 1: Kill 50 abominations

  • Rank 3: Kill 150 abominations

Notes[]

  • Like most kill challenges, progress is tracked cumulatively, i.e. once Rank 1 is achieved, one only has to kill another 50 abominations to reach Rank 2, and so on with Rank 3.
  • Centaurs including the unique enemy Moe can respawn every in-game week around the crater close to Black Mountain that is visited as part of Still in the Dark for the Brotherhood of Steel.
  • Old World Blues (add-on) Having access to Big MT allows for an easy source of night stalkers to kill as they frequently spawn in the X-66 Hexcrete archipelago area near the X-13 research facility in the cardinal west direction.
  • The perk pairs well with the Ghost Hunter special perk Dead Money and the Purifier regular perk.
