Fallout: New Vegas Game Add-Ons (DLC) Hints

Ghost Combat Tips

  • 1 of 4: There are going to be a lot more ghosts to fight, and they're going to be throwing explosive gas bombs at you in addition to spears and such.
  • 2 of 4: Using the holorifle to snipe down ghosts with sneak attacks is the safest way to fight them, but it won't always slush one of their limbs, which means they won't stay down -- unless you've gotten the Ghost Hunter perk from Dog. (See the Other Perks list.)
  • 3 of 4: The most reliable way to fight the ghosts is to use cover to dodge their projectiles until they get close, then use V.A.T.S. and your best melee or unarmed weapon to pound on them until you destroy one of their limbs.
  • 4 of 4: If you ever have the situation where a ghost is throwing things at you from a higher level, try dodging under cover so it'll have to drop down to your level. If it won't, you can either try shooting it down or dodging its projectiles while moving on. (Or you can look around for a way to get to its floor so you can take it down in up-close combat.)
