Bad Karma Guide - Fallout 3 Guide

Guide by Warren Woodhouse

Related Trophies/Achievements: Reaver; Harbinger of War; Scourge of Humanity; Devil (DLC: Broken Steel)

In order to obtain Bad Karma related trophies/achievements, you’ll need to play as evil as you possibly can; always demand payment for quests and steal items, hack terminals and murder innocent people to increase your bad position of the karma gauge.

You’ll need to do loads of bad deeds, basically.

Stealing, hacking and murdering will increase your bad karma.

Good luck! ;)

Good Karma Guide - Fallout 3 Guide

 Guide by Warren Woodhouse

Related Trophies/Achievements: Protector; Ambassador of Peace; Last, Best Hope of Humanity; Messiah (DLC: Broken Steel)

In order to obtain Good Karma related trophies/achievements, you’ll need to play as a goodie two shoes; always doing quests for free or with very little reward and use a reliable karma balancing loop (stealing to lower it, donating Caps to churches or water to beggars to raise it) to stay in the Good part of the karma gauge.

You’ll need to be careful with how you balance your good and bad deeds to stay in the good position, basically.

Maintain your status by alternating between stealing or hacking (to lose karma) and donating Caps to churches or giving water to beggars (to gain karma).

Good luck! ;)

Neutral Karma Guide - Fallout 3 Guide

Guide by Warren Woodhouse

Related Trophies/Achievements: Mercenary; Pinnacle of Survival; Paradigm of Humanity; True Mortal (DLC: Broken Steel)

Tip

If you reach Level 7 as Neutral Karma, head to The Mall and kill as many Super Mutants (The Reflection Pool) and Slavers (Lincoln Memorial) as these don’t dish out any negatives or positives, Super Mutants repeatedly respawn in that area by the trenches quite frequently so you can use this to farm your XP for your Neutral Karma playthrough without any drawbacks. The only quest to avoid at Level 7 is “Tranquility Lane” as you’ll only receive a large boost of either Good Karma points or Bad Karma points. You can still steal stuff afterwards from containers to return to Neutral Karma but at Level 8, the trophy won’t unlock if you’ve reached Level 8 with another Karma Level.

Neutral Karma Levels

• Level 8 unlocks Mercenary
• Level 14 unlocks Pinnacle of Survival
• Level 20 unlocks Paradigm of Humanity
• Level 30 unlocks True Mortal (DLC: Broken Steel; increases your level cap to a maximum of 30)

Guide

In order to obtain Neutral Karma related trophies/achievements, you’ll need to play as a selfish mercenary; always demand payment for quests and use a reliable karma balancing loop (stealing to lower it, donating Caps to churches or water to beggars to raise it) to stay in the center of the karma gauge.

You’ll need to be careful with how you balance your good and bad deeds as to stay in the middle, basically.

Maintain your status by alternating between stealing or hacking (to lose karma) and donating Caps to churches or giving water to beggars (to gain karma).

Avoid quests that dish out loads of Good Karma points and Bad Karma points as this might impact your ability to unlock the trophies successfully.

Good luck! ;)
