I think i found a couple of cultists just by luck, in temples. Is it possible to find ALL of them by exploring or

[acecrisp]

will some take extra work

Exploring is a good way to find cultists, doing missions will sometimes drop clues as to where new cultists are hiding, as does killing Mercs. The Cultist list will also tell you what general area to start looking, you need to explore from there.

oh i know, i have killed 9 so far and have 3 targeted also.. just wondered if i could have done them all by looking around

I don't think cultists appear in the world until after you unmask them

Oh yeah, I just found a cultist tonight in the course of a random side mission - turns out the guy trying to hire me was part of the cult, so I killed him. It is common for me to be doing a random mission and have someone say "the bad man is a member of a cult" and have that be the only way I find out about them.

The clues in the cultist menu will point you in the general direction of how to unmask said cult member.

I can confirm that this is not true. I found one on an uninhabited island by comeplete accident and had no idea who he was. He was just sleeping on the beach and I stabbed him in his sleep, and suddenly it tells me to confirm cultist kill.

You're probably right however some cultists are locked behind missions.

I've found a few cultists by chance, and some Mercs are Cultists too. I've randomly murdered some hostile NPC before only to be standing over his corpse and it saying "Confirm Cultist Kill"

Several of the Cultists appear through main story missions and cant be confronted until the story missions appear.

There's a guy on another thread that allegedly went full GTA and killed everyone in sight, and somehow got 3 or 4 cultists of which one was a Sage.

So yeah... Some apparently are out there from the beginning...

I actually killed a Sage that was masked, he was in Achaia, the Temple of Herikles. I had a feeling I had run into a Cultist when I noticed there were levle 46 Cultist Guards in the temple and a level 50 dude in the center of them.

around half cultist are killable by exploring and galf only with doing side yellow quests and main quests.
