Sneak Attack Critical

What is a Sneak Attack Critical? In Fallout 3 attacking while [HIDDEN] always results in an automatic “sneak” critical if the attack hits. This sneak attack bonus is similar to the classic d&d stealth move "Backstab".

(Loud) Silent Kills

 * It is possible to kill an enemy without alerting those around them if the "sneak" critical is also a one hit kill even with loud weapons like the Assault Rifle. Additional attacks after the first, queued in V.A.T.S., will be treated as non-sneak attacks and will reveal the player's location to the target and possibly other enemies, presumably because the target then alerts their friends.

Choice Weapons
The best weapons for sneak attacks are the ones with the highest critical damage bonus (affected by +50% dmg Better Criticals perk). Here's a number of common weapons with big bonuses.


 * Hunting Rifle +25 (critical bonus)
 * Combat Shotgun +27 (critical bonus)
 * Scoped .44 Magnum +35 (critical bonus)
 * Sniper Rifle +40 (critical bonus)
 * Plasma Rifle +44 (critical bonus)
 * Lincoln's Repeater +50 (critical bonus)
 * Dart Gun +70 (+6 for Robots) (critical bonus)
