Plik's Safari

Plik's Safari is a Fallout 3 quest which is added to the game with the Point Lookout add-on.

Walkthrough
When you enter the Coastal Grotto, loot the small room on the right and be sure to read Plik's Journal, (on the desk), before continuing down the "hallway" and speaking to a ghoul named Plik. He offers you a chance to join his small hunting club, but only if you pay the entry fee of 1,000 caps. Pay the fee, and ask to join in the next Safari.

Join the safari
Enter the door behind Plik, and meet your buddies for this hunting excursion, . When you are all set to begin the hunt, flip the switch on the block in the center of the room. lhglh

Survive Plik's Safari
You'll have to fight several waves of leveled feral ghouls, ranging from swamp ghouls to glowing ones. Jacob and Rip are hardly worthy allies, and will usually perish during the onslaught. Use anything at your disposal to live through the obscene amount of enemies. It's not a bad idea to place mines on all of the four pathways extending from the center where the switch is located.

NOTE: Wearing the ghoul mask as you enter the arena does have an effect on the quest. Initially, the ghouls will not be hostile to you or the other two non-player characters. However, upon attacking one ghoul, all ghouls will become hostile to both the non-player characters and you. If you manage to kill the ghouls using sneak without being seen, the actual challenge never starts, your non-player character battlers and the ghouls never initiate battle so long as you stay hidden. There is no karma penalty to killing your non-player character battle mates as they are able to be killed in the hunt as well. The ghoul mask may provide you with an initial advantage by allowing you to stand where you like once the first batch has come out.

Reward
The Dismemberer and 100 XP. After the last feral ghoul stops breathing, the safari is over. Walk out the way you came in, and talk to Plik to get your reward: a unique axe Plik pilfered from one of his club members who "won't be needing it anymore", The Dismemberer. You can kill Plik and get your 1000 caps back (plus the 800 he had before) if you so desire - this can also be done via pickpocketing.

Bugs

 * If ghouls stop spawning you may be stuck in the cave; you can solve this by using the "Resurrect" command in the console on the ghouls corpses and then killing them again. After doing this ghouls should start to respawn (and attack you) again.
 * Occasionally when you enter the area, Plik may be running up and down the cave. He will never leave, so this isn't an issue, just inconvenient.
