By far the fastest and quickest way of obtaining the achievement
Roughly 3000-XP/minute dependent on how fast you can click the Left Trigger and A button
(solution taken from The Vault(Fallout Wiki); and I do not take credit for it, only place here for convenience)
The process works as follows:
First, Acquire Mantis Forelegs by killing Giant Mantises. The first ones available for this exploit can be found inside the Goodsprings schoolhouse. Then find a container object (almost any container will work, not just insect corpses). Once a container is found and you are suitably prepared, swap the Mantis Foreleg(s) into and then back out of said container. The XP awarded will vary, but can regularly exceed 100 XP per swap. Repeatedly and rapidly swapping back and forth even a single mantis foreleg to and from an empty container can easily generate many thousands of XP per minute. This process is most effective when only mantis forelegs are in your inventory, and the container is empty. The process can be further streamlined by preparing ahead of time and using only a single Mantis Foreleg. Of particular note is that:
Only the first Mantis Foreleg moved to a container from your inventory will register XP. Additional Mantis Forelegs do not register XP even if placed into another container. It is therefore important to move one to a container before divesting the remainder with any equipment to a different container. If dropped on the ground the legs may no longer be able able to award XP. If they are later placed into the corpse of an insect again, they will be reflagged to award XP once more. Placing the mantis forelegs into an insect that awards a higher amount of XP(such as a giant radscorpion) is very advantageous as it flags the mantis foreleg(s) to the XP value of the last insect it was removed from.
If for some reason your XP isn't registering just walk away from the Container/insect your milking the XP from and walk towards Goodsprings and it should register then. |
