Entomologist – Merit Badges Made Easy In Fallout 76

Welcome to another Fallout 76 merit badge guide from Agents of Game! While the Entomologist merit badge isn’t particularly difficult, it is more difficult and time consuming than most of the Tadpole badges, so we wouldn’t recommend this as one of your initial three badges to unlock the Possum rank and your backpack. Before we get into tips and suggestions, let’s take a gander at the requirements.

  1. Pass “Entomologist” knowledge exam at an exam terminal
  2. Complete the “Path to Enlightenment” event
  3. Acquire a Mothman Wing
  4. Take a camera picture of a Bee swarm
  5. Take a camera picture of a Bloatfly
  6. Take a camera picture of a Bloodbug
  7. Take a camera picture of a Cave Cricket
  8. Take a camera picture of a Firefly
  9. Take a camera picture of a Honey Beast
  10. Take a camera picture of a Radant
  11. Take a camera picture of a Radroach
  12. Take a camera picture of a Radscorpion
  13. Take a camera picture of a Stingwing
  14. Take a camera picture of a Tick

If you’re interested in the exam questions and answers, we’ll have those down in an expandable box you can click down below. While the Path to Enlightenment event didn’t used to be very popular, now that there’s a lobby-wide notification, free fast travel, and a good reason to pick up the XP buff from the event, you’ll probably have a better chance of completing this requirement now than when it initially was introduced. It always helps to bring friends, as you have to collect quite a bit of bio-luminescent fluid to summon the Wise Mothman.

Acquiring a Mothman Wing can also be tricky as many players don’t seem to see an attackable Mothman that often, let alone succeed at downing one to obtain the wing. You can sometimes find these in player vendors, or if you know someone who is a collector, there’s a good chance they might loan you one to complete this challenge. Note on obtaining items: some items can be obtained from other players (including the following suggestions), some must be obtained naturally by the player.1) Receiving the item directly from a friend. 2) Picking up from a container, placed by another player. 3) Purchasing from a vendor, sold by another player. 4) Finding the item naturally in the world. Most reports coming from Reddit suggest that it is not necessary to personally obtain the Momtham Wing.

The rest of the challenges all relate to taking camera pictures (not photomode pictures) of various insects. As with most photo-related challenges, these can be done by taking pictures of the corpses of dead insects, with the exception of a Bee Swarm, so make sure you snap that one while it’s still alive. We’re working on creating a map of common spawn locations for all of the various creatures throughout Appalachia, but given the time it’ll probably take you to complete the Mothman related challenges, if you just take this pictures during your travels (especially if you’re doing the Stings and Things daily), you shouldn’t have any trouble with these pictures.
