How to unlock the Oversight achievement in Fallout 4 - Definitive Guide

If you want to get this achievement really quickly, what I did was i ran up to the current Overseer, killed her, looted her body for the Vault Tec Experiments note and got the achievement!
I'd recommend saving before doing this so you can complete the quest lines in the DLC.

For some reason she went hostile on me so I thought if I shoot her it might reset her A.I. Nope she died, got a cheevo though.

Update: It seems like this might not work if you're in the middle of one of the Vault 88 quests. I tried a few times in the middle of the power cycle quest to no avail, but once I finished the quest I tried again and it unlocked.

Following the slot machine experiment on Clem for the Lady Luck quest, the overseer will talk with you and you'll be presented with 4 options to complete the quest (and subsequently the whole DLC). If you press X for the option that asks you to convince the overseer to remain at her position, you will NOT get the achievement and will have to reload a previous save and pick a different choice There's no reason not to just keep tapping A though, as not only will you get the achievement and complete the quest, you'll still get the special outfit from the overseer as well

Edit: This achievement was originally thought to be missable since the overseer can remain in her position if you press X in the final conversation, though @Trevis tested killing her after letting her remain and still got the achievement

I convinced her to stay and I killed her right after and got the achievement and nobody cared. So its not missable.

As a heads up, if you kill the Overseer, then the other residents will try to kill you.

When you meet the overseer in Vault 88 just kill her and grab the Vault-Tec prototypes.
Make sure to save before so you can go back.

There may be a shorter way, but this works.

First of all, prepare yourself:
tgm
player.additem 000e6b2e 500
player.additem 000BD56F 1

Head to the exterior of the vault:
coc QuincyQuarriesExt

There are ghouls, so you may want to:
killall

Head to the marker underground which takes you inside. There are ghouls trying to break into the vault, kill them and enter.

There are ghouls inside the vault, kill them and follow the instructions to get inside. You'll need to activate a terminal, take a control board from a ghoul, activate a workshop and then use it to delete material blocking your progress.

You will then meet the Overseer.

Kill the Overseer.

You're the Overseer now.

After building the Overseer's Desk and assisting with the interviews, make a manual save then kill the Overseer. If you choose to finish the quest instead (or after getting the trophy and reloading the manual save) see this post for a list of required resources (including what you need for the Overseer's Desk): LINK

Credit to:

- PSN user TristanRovito for informing me that killing the Overseer pops the trophy.
- Thedah for pointing out this method is a time- and resource saver.
- darkrequiem7 for confirming the trophy pops, even if you kill the Overseer after convincing her to stay.

I accidentally got this right after meeting the overseer trying to VATS the ghouls hanging around her. Had to reload back to warwick homestead because I'm playing survival.

this is very simple and does not long to achieve after the settlers arrive to be allowed into the vault make sure to equip one with a pip boy and a jump suit after that save your game and quickly kill the ghoul overseer loot her and take her jumpsuit the trophy should unlock straight away. feel free to reload your save if you choose to finish the quest normally or just don't want the vault dewellers shooting at you

I find it better to go in to this DLC with high charisma and intelligence (I had Charisma 8 and Intelligence 10), finish the questline, theb convince the Overseer to stay on as Overseer for an XP boost, then kill her for the trophy, no settlers cared I killed her and left her in the middle of the Cafe.

Either complete all the quests linked to vault 88, or just kill the overseer which greets you at the entrance (and gives you said quests).

After completing "Explore Vault 88" and "A Model Citizen," and you have obtained the other two achievements in this add-on, make a manual save. You can now kill Overseer Barstow at any time in order to unlock this achievement. Feel free, as it's encouraged, to reload your save so you can carry on with the questline.

Alternatively, this will also unlock after completing the last experiment in "Lady Luck" and allowing Barstow to pass the mantle of Vault 88 Overseer onto the Sole Survivor.

The simplest, but inhumane way: kill the current caretaker

Make a save before killing, once you get the trophy - load the save

In the dialogue with the caretaker, press X (it was a pleasure to work with you), the caretaker leaves, and we become the new caretaker
