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

In the immersive world of *Fallout 76*, players now have the unique opportunity to walk in the shoes of Ghouls through the newly introduced "Leap of Faith" questline. This intriguing addition lets players at level 50 or above embark on a journey into the Savage Divide, where they'll meet characters pivotal to their transformation. But is becoming a Ghoul the right move for you?

How To Become a Ghoul in Fallout 76

To embark on this transformative journey, ensure you're at least level 50 and ready to take on the "Leap of Faith" questline. Once you're committed, head to the Savage Divide to meet characters who will guide you through the process of becoming a Ghoul. It's a straightforward path, but it's essential to weigh the pros and cons before making your decision.

Pros of Becoming a Ghoul in Fallout 76

Transforming into a Ghoul unlocks new abilities like Feral and Glow, which can significantly enhance your gameplay. The Feral ability starts at 100% and decreases over time, but you can boost it back up with Chems. Here's how the Feral meter impacts your stats:

• 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 by indulging in typically harmful activities, such as eating spoiled food and exploring irradiated zones.

As a Ghoul, you'll also have access to a range of new Perk cards, complementing your existing human Perk cards. This upgrade is a game-changer, as you won't need to worry about diseases or regular food while exploring.

Cons of Becoming a Ghoul in Fallout 76

However, becoming a Ghoul isn't without its challenges. Choosing this path will strain your relationships with certain factions, complicating your ability to complete quests. Additionally, your Charisma will take a hit, making interactions less enjoyable.

Fortunately, *Fallout 76* offers a solution through Jaye Vo, a new NPC in the "Leap of Faith" questline, who provides disguises to help you navigate these issues and continue your missions without unnecessary conflicts.

Should You Become a Ghoul in Fallout 76?

Despite the drawbacks, the allure of becoming a Ghoul in *Fallout 76* is hard to resist. The unique abilities and perks make it an exciting prospect. If you later decide you prefer your human form, you can revert back via the Character screen, though this means you won't complete the "Leap of Faith" questline. Once the questline is finished, you can transform back into a Ghoul for a cost of 1,000 Atoms.

Armed with this knowledge, it's time to venture into the Savage Divide and experience the game from a whole new perspective. Whether you should become a Ghoul in *Fallout 76* ultimately depends on your desire for a fresh gameplay experience and your willingness to navigate the challenges that come with it.
