Notes[]

  • Like most kill challenges, progress is tracked cumulatively, i.e. once rank 1 is achieved, one only has to kill another 50 insects to reach rank 2, and so on with rank 3.
  • Kills made by a companion do not count towards the kills needed to earn this perk.
  • The perk pairs well with the Entomologist perk.
