Forum:GRA Challenges problem.

Anyone working on these yet? I’m trying to get the Deathclaw Pro Hunter, but I cant get the kills to count. The challenge states “Kill adult Mojave Wasteland Deathclaws with .22 pistols, Switchblades, Boxing Tape, Recharger Rifles, or Dynomite.”

So far I’ve killed 4, two with .22 silenced pistol and 2 with the Recharger rifle, but none of them counted towards it. It says “adult” deathclaws, I’m assuming they mean the ones that are called simply “Deathclaw” because as far as I know there are none labeled as “Adult Deathclaw”. Any ideas?

Where is probably important, although not noted quarry deathclaws and trainyard deathclaws are different creatures from deathclaws in the GECK with different object codes. I don't have GRA so cannot run it through the GECK to see which creatures the challenge considers “adult Mojave Wasteland Deathclaws" but I would bet that the ones you are killing are really quarry or trainyard deathclaws instead of wasteland deathclaws and the quest only counts wasteland deathclaws. try killing some elsewhere and see if they count. I expect this will be patched but if you want to do it now you'll just have to find the right type of deathclaws.75.67.224.12 20:48, September 27, 2011 (UTC)

The ones I killed were at dead wind cavern, both outside and in. The Deathclaws at the quarry and the train yard don’t respawn in my game, once I killed them the first time they’ve never came back. ReapTheChaos 20:53, September 27, 2011 (UTC)

ouch. I wouldn't take my answer as gospel, until someone can check the code on the challenge and be sure (I have no desire to get GRA), it could be elsewhere but the multiple object IDs for deathclaws makes it the prime suspect. Sorry i cannot be of more help.75.67.224.12 21:06, September 27, 2011 (UTC)

Killed the ones at the quarry with dynamite, no problems at all Fallout: Shades of Grey, coming 2012 22:19, September 27, 2011 (UTC)
 * Did they count towards the challenge? I killed those ones long ago and as i said above, they never respawn in my game. Also did you try any other weapon besides dynomite? ReapTheChaos 22:24, September 27, 2011 (UTC)
 * Yeah they counted, I thought every deathclaw just named "Deathclaw" would count? No all I had that would count was dynamite I'm afraid. It's funny watching them flop down the hill overlooking the smoke coming from Vault 19 :P
 * Are you sure you got the Deathclaw pro hunter challenge? Because I just tried dynamite and it still didn’t count, however it did count for “You don’t belong in this world” which is for killing abominations with dynamite, machetes, etc. ReapTheChaos 22:41, September 27, 2011 (UTC)
 * It counted for both for me. I'm on PC by the way, if you're on Xbox maybe it's a console glitch? :/ Fallout: Shades of Grey, coming 2012 22:44, September 27, 2011 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I'm on xbox. ReapTheChaos 22:46, September 27, 2011 (UTC)

This one is still not working for me, but I managed to get the achievements for the 1,2 and 3 star challenges, so for now I’m not going to worry about it. I don’t think it could be a problem with the download, all the other challenges work fine. Anyone else on Xbox having this happen? ReapTheChaos 03:14, September 28, 2011 (UTC)

I have a 360, and I had the same problem. XxSick DemonxX 05:15, September 28, 2011 (UTC)

Could it be that they are registering as sneak kills and not counting towards the total? Portfan 16:00, September 29, 2011 (UTC)
 * It doesn't matter if they are sneak kills judging by the other challenges. I completed "Armed for Bear," "Man-Machine Interface," and "Crackerjack Timing" using only sneak kills. It's simply not registering kills for deathclaws in most locations apart from the quarry.--DeadlyPrey 01:31, September 30, 2011 (UTC)

No, I made sure of that. It isn't because I was sneaking. The only thing I could think of is location, I was at Deathclaw Promitory. Perphaps that doesn't register correctly, and I haven't had the opportunity to try it out anywhere else yet. XxSick DemonxX 18:04, September 29, 2011 (UTC)

I had the same problem - I tried the killing the Quarry deathclaws and the ones at Deathclaw Promontory. I eventually got the achievement in the arena in the Thorn. I softened then up with the Ratslayer, (of all things), before finishing them off with the .22 silenced pistol. Niceslippers 19:20, October 08, 2011 (GMT)
