I decided to go on safari at Plik's in PL. I dosed myself with every chem I could and got ready. He let the ghouls loose, and my two fellow safari hunters were killed almost immediately. I was attacked by about 16 Glowing Ones, and managed to kill all of them, without VATS. Surprisingly, no Reavers. I had 75% health left too, which I was pretty proud of.
I left the grotto, waded across this small sandbank, and immediately fell over dead. I had 999 RADS from all their explosions... :facepalm: and that one second of touching radiated sea water killed me. LOL.
