"Is Becoming a Ghoul in Fallout 76 Worth It?"

If you're a fan of *Fallout 76*, you're likely intrigued by the new opportunity to experience life as a Ghoul. This new questline, "Leap of Faith," offers players a chance to switch sides and see the world through the eyes of these iconic creatures. But is it worth the transformation? Let's delve into the pros and cons to help you decide if becoming a Ghoul in *Fallout 76* is the right move for you.

How To Become a Ghoul in Fallout 76

To embrace your inner Ghoul, you must reach at least level 50 and accept the "Leap of Faith" questline. Once you do, head to the Savage Divide where you'll meet characters eager to help you start your new life as a Ghoul. The process is straightforward, but the decision comes with significant implications.

Pros of Becoming a Ghoul in Fallout 76

Transforming into a Ghoul unlocks unique abilities like Feral and Glow. With Feral, your meter starts at 100% and decreases over time. To keep your Feral meter high, you'll need to consume Chems. Here's what the Feral meter offers:

• Above 80%: +3 Strength, +3 Endurance, +30 Max HP
• Above 60%: +15 Max HP
• Above 40%: -1 Endurance, -5 Max HP
• Above 20%: -3 Endurance, -15 Max HP, -10 Max AP
• At 0%: +150% Melee Damage, -5 Endurance, -99 Charisma, -30 Max HP, -20 Max AP, -300% Hip-fire Gun Accuracy & V.A.T.S. Accuracy

The Glow ability increases your maximum health and allows you to heal from damage taken. To activate it, indulge in activities typically considered harmful, like eating spoiled food and exploring irradiated areas.

Ghouls also gain access to exclusive Perk cards, which can be used alongside human Perk cards, offering significant advantages. Additionally, Ghouls are immune to diseases and don't need to eat regular food, making exploration much easier.

Cons of Becoming a Ghoul in Fallout 76

However, becoming a Ghoul isn't without its challenges. Accepting the "Leap of Faith" questline can strain your relationships with certain factions, potentially hindering your ability to complete quests. Moreover, as a Ghoul, you'll suffer a loss in Charisma, making social interactions less enjoyable.

Fortunately, *Fallout 76* offers a solution. Jaye Vo, an NPC introduced in the "Leap of Faith" questline, provides disguises that allow you to navigate the world without unnecessary conflicts and continue your missions.

Should You Become a Ghoul in Fallout 76?

Despite the drawbacks, the benefits of becoming a Ghoul in *Fallout 76* are compelling. The unique abilities and perks make it an exciting opportunity. If you later decide to revert to your human form, you can do so from the Character screen, though you'll need to wait until the "Leap of Faith" questline is complete. Reverting back to a Ghoul will cost 1,000 Atoms, but it's a small price for the experience.

Armed with this information, it's time to venture into the Savage Divide and embrace your new Ghoul identity. Whether you choose to transform or not, *Fallout 76* continues to offer a rich and evolving world to explore.
