Sheriff's hat (Fallout 3)

Sheriff's Hat is a hat in Fallout 3. This item is held by Lucas Simms and Sonora Cruz.

There are 3 ways to acquire the hat from Lucas Simms.


 * 1) Kill Lucas Simms yourself, and loot it off his body. This will give you negative Karma.
 * 2) Inform Lucas Simms of Mr. Burke's plot to blow up Megaton and follow him into Moriarty's Saloon. Simms will attempt to arrest Mr. Burke and will be killed in the process. This will not affect your Karma, however if you kill Mr. Burke then your Karma level will be increased. (Doing this way will leave you unable to blow up Megaton and get the reward for it as Mr. Burke will tell you to Watch your back and leave.)
 * 3) Reverse-Pickpocket better headgear onto Lucas Simms, then leave the area and come back when he is wearing his new apparel and pickpocket his old hat from him. Both instances of pickpocketing will grant the player some negative Karma.

The only way to acquire Sonora Cruz's hat is by using the reverse-pickpocketing method already mentioned for Lucas Simms. However this successful pickpocket may have unwanted effects, see the Regulator Article for more information regarding pickpocketing them.
