Mercenary Trophy

[Kolm14]

Throughout playing 40 hours I've only completed about 15 misc objectives. Anyone have a list of locations where there's a good amount of these. I've been trying to talk to everyone I can and picking up a few here and there. Seems like it's gonna be an annoying grind. Anyone who already has this have any tips?

For the Minutemen, is it just talking to Preston?

Awesome, thanks. Any idea what the * means?

I wont lie to you... I have no Idea.

Seems as most of those on the list actually count as quests, not misc objectives, even though they're extremely short. I went around to each location and a lot of them didn't count. Currently sitting at 35.

If you have 2k you can go buy a house in Diamond City. You then get a really easy misc objective to go visit the house you just bought. All the random bounties that you'll find posted in Diamond City are also misc objectives. One of the bounties is on some wall in the dugout bar in Diamond city, and another one is in the market area.

 

Doing the Confidence Man trophy in Diamond City will also lead to a misc objective after the mission is complete. There's also the very easy one in the science building where the scientist will tell you to get a bloatfly gland.

Currently stuck at 40 miscellaneous objectives Can't find anymore only this trophy then I'll get the plat please help me

[SwiftlyLosing]

Have you visited Rook Family house? I got about 5 of them there to get the trophy. Its just north of the Museum of Witchcraft. 

 

You can also try calling in Vertibirds using the signal grenades, I'm not 100% sure but I think I got a misc objectives that counted towards the trophy because when it lands you get a misc objective to get inside the Vertibird.

 

Here is the location of the Rook Family House :

Also I'd like to point out that those quests listed above in the 4th post count as side quests so don't help contribute towards the trophy.

Some of them do. A lot of the misc stuff start out with a misc task like "talk to xxx", then when you talk to him/her you trigger a side quest, but the talking part counts as a misc task.

Majority of the ones I tried didn't give me misc objectives it just started a side quest. There might a few thats misc though since after the first 5 just gave me side quests I stopped.

[DFuzed]

I found that asking merchants for work when it appears as an option gets you plenty of the Misc quests.

[HellbornHunter]

I got bored of hunting down objectives so I just spawned the vertibird ten times to get the last ones I needed. If you're going this route you can always buy more signal grenades from teagan if the brotherhood is still around. If they're not, I know tinker tom sells them if you sided with the railroad and someone should for the minutemen as well, if that's who you chose. Don't know where to get more if you went the institute route and the BoS isn't around anymore

[Splathew]

Anytime a settlement is attacked if you go defend it then it will count as one.

[ImBossy83]

If you don't mind repetitiveness this might work for you.
