The achievements calls for healing damage with food. That's it. Drowning yourself near death and eating to heal. Achievement unlocked...
This achievement isn't going to be that bad. I just ate a Brahmin wellington and 3 other brahmin steaks. I got 230/10,000. That was in about a minute... Went to Post 188 and bought them out. Should be able to get about 1,000 every trip to Lake Mead and back!
Definitely going to be a grind. Especially since everything gives you radiation!
Yeah the food achievement sounds like a bitch, especially since I just got the Stimpak one yesterday. I cant imagine how long it'll take not grinding.

Once you play on hardcore mode, you'll understand what I'm talking about. In hardcore mode, if you wait for three days for the merchant to restock, you'll be close to death due to lack of water and sleep. So its better to do it on non hardcore like your doing.
Oh definitely, I'm not arguing with you there. I'm just saying, it's super easy to boost if you buy out all her food about 10 times, go to Lake Mead, drown to near death and then just eat and eat and eat. I'm got to 1164 in a little under 10 minutes. So I figure about 2 hours should do it.

Well all you do is go to Camp McCarran and talk to Sergeant Bitter-Root. I found him in one of the tents sleeping. Ask him about his name and than there is an option for a Speech 30 attempt. You can keep saying, "Bitter-Root. You have an unusual name." and each time you say it you can do the speech attempt which at 30 speech you always pass it. Easy way to do it is to say that than do the speech attempt than ask to talk about something else and rinse and repeat. Easy way for the achievement.
This sucks it doesnt work for me. I wonder if the patch fixed this?
Remove the patch and do it offline. That's how I got the broke the bank achievement. Who cares if it's offline? lol.
In other news, I'm 4 hours into boosting 10,000hp healed with food, currently sitting at 7,500. For me the quickest way was to drop EVERYTHING I had to free up all the weight I could carry. Go to the Post 188 and buy out Michelle's food. Wait 72 hours (3 days) and buy her out again. Rinse and repeat until you can't carry anymore food. Fast travel to the Crashed B29 (it's the only place near Lake Mead you won't encounter any baddies). Drown yourself until near death. Eat 10-15 food items, wait until they wear off and heal you. Rinse and repeat all that until you unlock the achievement. It will take 5-6 hours.

I'm at 5500. I'm doing that exact same method, except I stop by freeside and buy food from that guy who has a table near the fort. He has alot of meat there. Plus, I'm doing quest in between instead of waiting 72 hours. I might go ahead and just boost the rest while I'm at it.
9,635!!!
Unlocked! FINALLY!
Now I just need to start a new game on hardcore and do 10,000 unarmed damage and I'm good!

I'm worried I might not get the speech challenge achievement. Do I just need high speech to get these?

For the life of me I can't find him there. Do I have to progress to a certain point for him to show up?
