For the first time in Fallout history, YOU will be able to play as a Ghoul. Starting the new
questline “Leap of Faith” will take you into a new section of the Savage Divide. There you will meet characters
who will aid in your transformation. Unlocking the new Ghoul-specific abilities Glow and Feral as well as the
new Ghoul exclusive Perks.
Miner Note: Diehard Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel fans are reminding me
(with a gun to my head) that a Ghoul named Cain was a player
character option in that game
Ghoulities (Abilities)
Feral
Becoming a Ghoul sheds the need to sate your hunger and thirst. Instead, you battle against a
gnawing desire to slip back into your base nature. Abandoning all sanity you might have had.
The new Feral meter drains overtime and can only be filled back up by consuming Chems. You
may not want to keep that meter 100% filled though. Your Feral status provides different bonuses and penalties
depending on how full the meter is.
Above 80%: you gain +3 Strength, +3 Endurance, +30 Max HP
Above 60%: you gain +15 Max HP
Above 40%: you lose -1 Endurance and -5 Max HP
Above 20%: you lose -3 Endurance, -15 Max HP, -10 Max AP
At 0%: you gain +200% Melee Damage, and lose -5 Endurance, -30 Max HP, -20 Max AP, -300% Hip-fire Gun
Accuracy & V.A.T.S. Accuracy (a few people on the team have been known to call it Ghoulzerker or
Ghoularian Mode)
Miner Note: Magnitudes and breakpoints of these effects have changed
As you might expect when living life as a Ghoul, radiation doesn’t have the same effect on
you as it does on the smooth-skinned. You’re immune to diseases and cannot be mutated by nearby radiation. As a
Ghoul, radiation makes you Glow!
This new Glow system increases your maximum health (and heals damage you’ve taken) based on
the amount of radiation that you’ve accumulated. Your Glow can be tracked by the green-striped pattern on your
HP bar.
Miner Note: As of 1/26, your Glow bar is equal in size to your health
bar If you have 307 Max HP, you have 307 Max Glow Previously, Glow was out of 1000, regardless of your Max
HP
Consuming tainted foods, drinks, and exploring irradiated environments all contribute to your
Glow. If you hear that Pip-Boy ticking, the radiation is hitting. While you’re in Power Armor, your radiation
intake can be seen on the “Rads” dial next to your health.
Outside of the max health increase Glow provides, it also contributes to Perks like the
Science Monster and Jaguar Speed Perks mentioned below!
Gherks (Perks)
One benefit of living life as a Ghoul is that you’ll have access to a new suite of Perk cards
that you can use in addition to the normal human cards . There are 28 Perks to choose from and 2 new Legendary
perks for Ghouls.
The new Perk cards can be attained through Perk card packs or by selecting your level-up
Perk. These cards will open new build opportunities and enhance the way you play.
Miner Note: Ghoul perks do not have animated versions
Do note that Perk cards that revolve around Hunger, Thirst, and the Chem Resistant perk will
be locked as Ghouls don’t require the benefits that those cards provide.
Miner Note: Disabled perks include
Chem Resistant
Dromedary
Ghouliish
Hydro Fix
Iron Stomach
Lead Belly
Munchy Resistance
Natural Resistance
Radicool
Rad Resistant
Rejuvinated
Slow Metabolizer

A Ghoul’s Day Out
With all these new benefits that help you explore the wasteland; we would forgive you for
thinking that life as a Ghoul was easy. No matter how well dressed you are, there are still some factions (like
the Brotherhood of Steel) who won’t want to interact with you.
Playing as a Ghoul will make some factions hostile to you which will lock you out of quest
lines. Luckily wearing disguises made by Jaye, a new NPC you’ll meet along the new questline, will allow you to
interact with any blocked content that you may find when living life as a Ghoul.
There are a few trade-offs though:
Sprinting will cost 50% more AP
Feral Meter depletion rate is increased by 30
Movement speed is slightly slower
Super Overencumbrance (drastic AP drain and forced slow-walk)
Don’t worry. If after a short while you find out that being a Ghoul isn’t for you, you can
switch back to being human through your Character Screen. Just know, this is a one-way ticket back. You won’t be
able to complete the questline to become a Ghoul again.
Miner Note: Datamined assets have been found that suggest re-ghoulification can
be purchased for Atoms
The Big Bloom
Spring is coming and we wanted to introduce a new themed event to match.
Introducing Black-Eyed Susan, a new friendly NPC who is sure to remind you of a grandmother.
She loves flowers, floral arrangements, and totally doesn’t have a secret backstory so stop asking. Susan needs
help with her latest project and luckily for her there are a bunch of Vault Dwellers who are ready and willing
to help.
Black-Eyed Susan’s favorite meadow has been overtaken by strange, plant-like beasts called
Overgrown making the area too dangerous for her to pick flowers. So, she needs you to head into the meadow, pick
some flowers, and defeat those monsters.
Do watch out for the mines though. They’re the remnants of a previous attempt to keep those
beasts out of her meadow.
Perks Catalog
The Perks Catalog is a new way of viewing and organizing your Perk card collection. It's
filterable, sortable, has 2 different views, and even lets you tag specific cards for search. Check it out by
opening your loadout and pressing the "All Perks" button on the left-hand side of your screen (LT on controller,
M on mouse & keyboard). Let us know what you think!
Combat Balancing
Many pistols have been modified to incorporate the damage that they’d deal via perks
(pre-update Gunslinger and Guerrilla) into their base damage, since those perks no-longer offer a
pistol-specific increase to damage. In addition, some pistols have received a further increase to their base
damage.

can
further increase these values.

Crusader Pistol: 2.0 -> 2.5

Furious
This effect is now considered Onslaught (+5% damage per stack, +9 max stacks) and stacks with the

Onslaught description: Each consecutive hit against the same target grants a stack of Onslaught. All stacks

can increase this through Perks and Items. The effects granted per stack can also be modified by Perks and
Items.
Miner Note: As of the 11/24 patch, Onslaught no longer expires upon
attacking a different target
Miner Note: Onslaught stacks per projectile, so an 8 pellet shotgun
would generate 8 stacks, if every pellet hit
