Backstabbing is a gameplay mechanic in Fallout 4.

Characteristics[]

Backstabbing is an in-game combat stat. Backstabs are stealth-based kill animations, achieved by attacking an enemy with a melee weapon while undetected and dealing enough damage to kill the target.

The stat will not update in the Pip-Boy unless done in V.A.T.S.
