8. Those!
Happen upon Greyditch as a wasteland veteran and this side-quest isn't much trouble, but Those! remains an achievement/trophy that can quickly slip out of the grasp of underpowered characters especially those without the handy Entomologist perk and poor fire damage resistance. There are a number of steps involved, which, as usual, presents plenty of scope for things to go wrong. Young Bryan spooks easily, and can be tough (if not impossible) to track down thereafter; fire ants near Doctor Lesko will cause him to flee (and probably die), ending the quest prematurely; and the fire ant queen is invariably hostile, causing any followers you have to attack her on sight. You will also need to find Bryan a place to live once the dust has settled. Or sell him to slavers. Or just walk away and forget about him. Typical Fallout, really, but it's the multitude of ways to fail that keeps this trophy from the grasps of most Fallout 3 players.
