Fallout 3 Hints
Pre-Combat Tips
1 of 5: Before you enter whichever building you intend to discover the town's secret in, there are two things you can do to make the combat easier.
2 of 5: One is to sneakily pickpocket the weapons and/or ammo from each of the four cannibals. That way, they'll only have their fists to use against you.
3 of 5: That's probably enough by itself, but you could also set some frag mines around the building's entry door.
4 of 5: Make sure none of them are close enough to the door to hurt you when they go off. (Remember that you can pick up and reset any mines that end up in bad positions.)
5 of 5: When you exit and the mines go off, quickly reenter the building and get ready to kill off any survivors who come in after you.
