Name your sweetest kill


mine was a ghoul started to run down some stairs in one of the metro station. he jumped at me and as he was in mid air, i blew his head off with vats and he did some flips through the air and landed at my feet.

your turn...

Tenepenny assassination with a silenced 10mm...Walked in, blew his head off with VATS--all without alerting any of his goons.

I strolled out of that place with a big grin on my face.

reply

Dropped a mine in front of me, shot at a raider who came running at me with his three mates. They got to the bomb, hit it and every single one got wasted.

reply

Meeting a Mutant the size of King Kong outside the galaxy radio station and using a rocket launcher weapon to knock him out

reply

i shot tenpenny in the face with a sniper rifle and then threw his body of the roof and watch it float down and explode :D

reply

I launched a missile into one of the robots in the basement of The National Archives and then he did one of those spin-around things like cartoon characters do when they get shot, then he powered down and muttered out "The...area...is...secure..." it was grand!

There was another time where I was low on health, and a group of 3 Raiders had ambushed me. I used VATS to take out one of them (with the help of the Mysterious Stanger) but the other 2 had almost killed me in the process. SO I took off running and managed to make it around the corner of the building, where I knelt down to make a smaller target and to wiat while I re-charged my AP. Anywho, I started to see a red mark coming towards me on the radar really fast, so I got ready.... right before he rounded the corner, he yelled out, "I'm gonna take off his head" or something that was similar to that, but when I used my VATS and targeted his head, my Laser Rifle cut his head clean off on the first shot. It was beautiful!

Sweetest - taking down the Behemoth mutant outside Galaxy Radio with my Chinese Rifle.

Funniest (just cos) - a mole rat charged at me, i waited until he leapt up, shot him twice in the head with my pistol, and strangely, it sent him flying right over my head at a great height and landed him some 30 feet away


If you want to find Hell with me, I can show you what it's like!

reply

Same thing happened to me, with the mole rat. I was only level 1 at the time but it made me feel badass.

reply

Spotting a load of Super Mutants, couple armed with miniguns, using a stealthboy to go plant live handgrenades on most of them, picking up the minigun and wasting the last guy just as the stealthboy wore off.

reply

Barehanded kills, three mutants on three levels of the Museum of Tech, around the rocket. The first one caught me sneaking on him, but I charged the rest of the way and took him out in three hits. The one on the lower level was shooting, so I raced around, hopped down and took him apart in two. The next was right beneath me, so dropped backwards, had enough AP to hit him twice and disarm him, then pummeled him to death while he cried.
Cry, mutie, cry!

reply

My sweetest or at least most amusing kills have been on Yao Gai Bears and Mole Rats. I aim at there head in V.A.T.S. and when I crit and blow off their head it launches them several yards. My farthest so far has probably been around 10 to 12 yards and was on a Mole Rat. I don't know why it happens but sometimes you just launch them when they should be thrown at all from a gun shot. The best one was a Mole Rat that was jumping at me in mid air and a shot it just before it got to me. That is the one that went at least 12 yards.

reply

I uppercut a Deathclaw so hard he flew backward over Old Olney fence. He friggin' sailed through the air, and landed on the other side on his head! Poor Charon died, but that was too sweet to reload.

reply

One of my favs was in Roosevelt Acadamy. A mutant on a high ledge had a grenade, I went into vats and shot at it. The blast took away half his health, making him fall off the ledge and die from the fall itself haha.

And I was pissed cuz this easily should have been a trophy, I had a shootout with a group of raiders. I shot a car nearby and it blew up killing all but one of them....but the blast sent the car flying and it crushed the last raider :0 I actually paused the game and told some friends cuz I was so pumped for killing an enemy like that.

reply

It's a two-way tie for me:

In Evergreen Mills, I took a huge chunk of the Behemoth's health away with a Mini Nuke from the Fat Man, then finished him off with two headshots from Lincoln's Repeater. The Behemoth flew at least 100 feet straight up after the second headshot...

In the Bethesda Ruins, I used a Stealth Boy to sneak up on a sleeping raider and zap him with the Mesmetron. Instead of being enslaved, he spun around like a tornado until his head exploded...

Tea parties are for little girls and mad hatters.

reply

that made me smile lol

reply

Spoilers...


Mine was when Lucas Simms and I confronted Burke about the Megaton bomb. I knew something wsa going to go down and had my finger hovering over VATS. I was a little surprised when Simms turned his back, but as soon as Burke twitched I beat him to the draw with two swift rounds from my trusy combat shotgun. Wasteland justice, indeed.

There were no special rewards for saving Simms' hide and I may have lost some quests because of it, but it played perfectly in to my gunslinger-style build.

shooting the grenade out of a super mutants hand

Walter Sobchak: Forget it, Donny, you're out of your element!

reply

One-shot killed a Deathclaw, barehanded. This is now my sweetest kill ever.

I snuck into a satcom far northwest, thinking I was going to deal with Enclaves, so I prepared by just barging right in. This hulking motherfker was just hovering over me but still hadn't detected me. I went VATS on him with everything I had but the first punch slammed him against the door behind him and zeroed his health.

Collected one more Deathclaw hand, yay, but I'm thinking I don't really need it after all.

reply

yeah you only really need one or two, depending on how good your repair skill is.


If you want to find Hell with me, I can show you what it's like!

reply

Apparently I don't even need one; I did that kill without wielding anything. Re-read that again, I said 'one punch', not 'one slash' or 'one spike' or 'one powerfist'. Barehand, one-shot kill on a Deathclaw!

reply

i meant in terms of the game. you need a deathclaw to make the deathclaw gauntlet weapon.


If you want to find Hell with me, I can show you what it's like!

reply

You also need a deathclaw to repair a deathclaw gauntlet weapon. So in terms of the game, one deathclaw is never enough.

reply

hence the "one or two" comment course, it all depends on how high your repair skill is when you create the gauntlet and also whether you use it or not.

reply

Is it a glitch that sends enemies flying? I shot a raider's dog yesterday with combat shotgun and it launched into the air and landed like 100 yards away. LOL.

Was funny, wondering if you hit some super high percentile to do that or it just was physics mayhem.

reply

i generally wait until i can get a 90% hit or above, so he was right in my screen when i did it, but i reckon it was just some crazy physics mayhem

reply

In the Bethesda ruins a Raider came at me saying, "this is going to be fun!" I shot the grenade on her belt and she blew up. And I thought, "you're right, that *was* fun!"

reply

I blew a molerats head off while it was jumping at me and it ended up flying way over my head and landed probably 20 feet or so beyond me.

Prof. Farnsworth: Oh. A lesson in not changing history from Mr. I'm-My-Own-Grandpa!

reply

yeah ive had a few of the fire ants heads (and once a whole fire ant) fly twice the hieght of the surrounding buildings. it really helps when that happens to as it gives you a preview of wehats in the surrounding area.

oh and my best kill was when i aimed for one raider in VATS and as i fired another raider lined up behind the other and i igot a double head shot kill and both there head imploded in a bloody and messy way

reply

Double head shot! Awesome!


Are you going to pull those pistols or whistle "Dixie"?

I was fighting a super mutant near the Jefferson Memorial on that raised catwalk thing, went into vats and shot him in the head, I swear the guy did a mid-air 360 flip and flew over the railing backwards. This was with the scoped .44, i think.

reply

I just had another weird physics kill the other day. I used a certain weapon against one of the Behemoths and he shot up into the sky and just stayed there, wandering around. he was waaaay up there too, like a tiny dot of a thing. it took me ages to kill him cos it was so difficult to aim sometimes this game is just weeeiiiirrrd.

reply

one of my favourites was with the sniper from a bloody long distance, about 1 km. took his head clean off...

reply

I don't know how to use the sniper rifle Is there a button to hold which keeps it steady or something, cos it's all over the place and in VATS it's really useless.

reply

have you tried zooming in? (not talking about vats)

reply

you mean holding the left trigger? or is there some other way to zoom in?


If you want to find Hell with me, I can show you what it's like!

reply

Yeah, I'd like to know as well. Hitting the left trigger seems to work about as well as taking one step forward...


I am Jack's IMDb post.

reply

Yup, that reminds me of the time I decided to escort those ex-slaves to the Lincoln Memorial and a deathclaw (or was it a Yao Guai) would stalk us at a certain point jumping like 100m up to the sky and then eventually coming down again. I had a similar problem twice with the last korean helicopter you have to destroy in Crysis in the mission where you have to sabotage that ship...

You gotta love some physics bugs sometimes :)


reply

i'd ran out of ammo completely, I was on low health and there were 2 raiders left.
One was coming at me with a lead pipe, the other one was this dumb bitch with a missile launcher. I pull out my blade in my last stand, the guy with the pipe is about 2 meters away from smashing my face in - but then, the bitch with the missile fires! and the rocket hits her partner, his body shields me from the explosion! I am alive! drenched in blood i charged at her with my last ounce of strength and i sliced that whore dead!

"Don't hate the player, hate the game."

reply

Last night I was playing and had 2 Yao Guai's coming at me fast, the one in front of the other lept and right before he got to me I went into VATS with chinese assault rifle, it's fully fixed with 32 damage and I have the bloody mess perk. So whilst it was in the air, on my final vats shot it's head blew off and his body flew maybe 50 feet or more away from me, then I just dodged the other one since I was near rocks and took it out. But yah that first one was the money shot.

Ya wanna know how I got these scars?

reply

I found a sledgehammer called "The Tenderizer."
Basically any kill with it in VATS because heads explode or bodies fly back in slo-mo.

reply

well i play on pc. all you have to do is use the scope and when they cant see you just wait for th x hair to line up.

America. Dictating other countries foreign policys since 1918.

reply

My sweetest kill? I had two vicious dogs charging me. I went VATS and targeted the closest one's head. Two shots later, his head goes flying off and his body does 5 flips and lands at my feet. The second dog does the same thing

Close only counts with horseshoes, hand grenades, and thermo-nuclear weapons.

reply

I was wandering the wastes and came across this junkyard they weren't enemies so I went up and talked to them and asked them what they were arguing about. They said they were arguing about the Oasis and now that I knew about it they had to kill me. There were 4 guys, one in front of me and 3 in a group to my right. I blew the first guys head off with a shotty, turned in Vats to look at the other group. The guy in the middle was holding a grenade.... Shot it and took out all 3 guys at once. Nice! Off to Oasis!
