Purging Vault 16

Post by nProzac »

I'm stuck at the quest to eliminate Mutant Hunters from thr third floor of Vault 16. I didn't listen carefully to the guy giving it, and pip-boy hint is very vague. I sounded alarm to get evryone out of the floor, killed aliens for some xp and exterminated all Hunters in the next level. Imperial soldiers follow me to the cave entrance. Am I supposed to fight with all Hunters on the ground floor aswell?

You're supposed to get rid of only Mutant Hunters on third floor of Vault 16 and of the aliens if you let them free from the cells. Then place some explosives in the tunnel in order to let it cave in so Hunters couldn't get back.

If you have fought Hunters inside their base, then you made yourself their enemy, all Hunters'll be hostile towards you now.

On floor 3 I try to plant the explosive in the tunnel so that the Hunters cannot come back into the third floor of Vault 16 (after I sounded the alarm so they would evacuate the third floor).

However when it detonates there is no cave-in and it does nothing.

If I enter the green section of the tunnel to go further in, hunters see me and shoot me instantly.

So where exactly must I plant the explosive, so that upon its explosion the cave-in is triggered?

You need to plant it in Vault map, don't go to the Hunter's base map. Activate an explosive and drop it on the ground near the column in small niche. Be careful that you don't stand in the tunnel nor your companions when it explodes.
If it still doesn't work, then please upload your save and I'll investigate it. Save files are in Fallout 2\Resurrection\resdata\SAVEGAME folder and each folder there is one save slot.

Possible Spoilers****



I can't for the life of me figure out where I am supposed to place the plastic explosive to blow the tunnel between the third level of the vault and the Mutant Hunters' place. Can someone help me please? I've already killed all the baddies : )

Just place it (as in drop it on on ground) anywhere in the tunel they dug to get into the vault.

I've tried that multiple time both on the vault side and the Hunters' side to no avail. Just to be clear, we are tasked to set 1 plastic explosive in the tunnel, detonate it, and the tunnel is supposed to collapse? If that's the case it is either bugged for me or I have dude plastics.

Place it near entrance, just below northern corner.

TNT will do just fine too, you can save a bit of loot, but at this point you have 1/2 power armors and loot stacked somewhere... So its mostly for RPG Jews like me.
