It has OooO been a while since I've tackled a new project, one of Absolute Steve the reasons being that I've had some business in the Version: 1.00 professional guide writing business and worked with PS3 / PC / X360 Piggyback Interactive on the official strategy guide for faq@shillatime.org Final Fantasy XIII. It was an honor to work on such a www.shillatime.org

big project, and it was especially nice to be the first Oo__________________oO person in the world to ever beat FF XIII outside of the development team. I'm glad to present you THE follow-up guide of a longlasting and popular series: Fallout. The series of guides I've made for Fallout 3 was created with the intention of not leaving a single irradiated stone unturned, but there's always room for improvement. This guide is the result of many days and nights of long labour, so here's hoping you'll enjoy the redesign of the layout, and may the in-depth strategies and vast descriptions greatly enrich your gaming experience. In any case, be sure to like this guide on facebook (see link above) and tell your friends about this guide! Fallout New Vegas does feel like a very stretched DLC and hardly has graphical improvements over Fallout 3, but that doesn't take away any of the fun. The game mechanics have been tweaked with, making the game harder and more balanced. There are minigames now, there's still plenty to explore, but the 'Fallout 3' feeling is gone (duh, it's Vegas!), the point being that the game doesn't really breathe the same atmosphere as Fallout 3 both in terms of exciting storytelling and areas. There are once again numerous annoying bugs that shouldn't exist, long loading times included , especially on the Xbox 360. Resetting your Xbox can sometimes do wonders combined with clearing the cache, though. All in all, the game has its improvements, but is hardly as epic or revolutionary as it's big brother. As such, be glad it's not called Fallout 4. :) On a closing note I do want to mention that some events in FNV are painfully unfunny, sometimes even disgusting and on the border of acceptable as to what you can put into a video game. This has nothing to do with gore, more so with ethics. Some of those people at Obsidian should give me a call - as a psychologist student I'd gladly study them as field cases. Lastly, be sure to check out Supercheats.com soon for an enhanced version of the guide, which features video content at tight spots that might require additional assistance. Having said that, please glance at the next few sections before diving into the table of contents and take the opportunity to read more about donation options and the future of guide writing. Thank you for your kind consideration and enjoy the guide and the game! ~ Absolute Steve P.S.

This is an essay on how the guide writing industry is changing, an essay on FAQ writing, and an essay in which I plead for more recognition for, and more cooperation between guide authors. Why is this here? Because otherwise you wouldn't have been reading this. Feel free to read it, but feel just as free to proceed to the main bulk of the guide. I hope you enjoy this FREE guide "as is". This essay is NOT going anywhere. :) THE PAST

Game guides have been around for almost as long as videogames themselves, but in a world where information is becoming increasingly more accessible, how is the format for game guides evolving? In the early nineties, game guides were usually featured as an appendix to videogame magazines, until Prima launched a series of game guides back in 1990. The guides were qualitatively poor and fairly unpopular by today's standards. Another company called Bradygames started selling guides in the nineties. It spawned various over the years, including infamous - yet best selling - books for popular RPG's such as the Final Fantasy series. Halfway the nineties, hotlines also started to gain popularity, if only through heavy marketing. By dialing a certain hotline you had "instant access" to hundreds of cheats for the most well-known games. The hotlines were rather expensive (a buck per minute at least), so it wasn't the preferred option for getting your daily cheatcodes. If you were stuck in a game back then, you either had your friends or big brother help you. If your friends sucked at gaming and you didn't have a big brother (I for one, didn't), then "that was life for 'ya." At the end of the decade, two new companies arose in the game guide industry, and interestingly, both took base in Hamburg, Germany. Piggyback quickly conquered the European market with high-quality guides for well-known games such as the Metal Gear Solid and Final Fantasy Series. FuturePress filled in the gaps with 'lesser' titles and remains to do so to date, mainly for the European and German market, one of the reasons it's hardly known elsewhere in the world. The internet brought aspiring game guide writers the excellent possibility to spread their information worldwide, but it wasn't until around the millennium that the majority of people started to gain internet access. The most popular games were quick to be covered in so-called FAQs: Documents in which Frequently Asked Questions were answered. Jeff Veasey, founder of GameFAQs, started collecting these documents and brought them all together at what remains the biggest online gaming helpsite to date. FAQs started including full-fledged walkthroughs and some of these in turn evolved into strategy guides that left no stone unturned. Lately, since the late 2000's, wiki pages have gained interest. This format allows communities of people to cooperatively work on creating a network of informative pages regarding a certain game. While the obvious benefit is that the amount of people makes contributing easy and the network quickly grows, some of the major downsides are inaccuracy of information, poorly written and vague walkthroughs, and the constant need to browse back and forth between pages. Most FAQ authors foresaw that accessibility was easily enhanced and had already solved the tedious searching problem by implementing a simple Ctrl + F search system with [tags] into their documents. THE PRESENT Presently, there are several camps in the guide writing business. There are the well-known strategy guide writing companies that pay for exclusive publishing rights, and there's the ever growing database of free guides online. We can divide the four official strategy guide companies into two groups, not only geographically but interestingly also qualitatively: On the one hand we have the U.S.-based Prima and Bradygames, whose motto comes down to "selling as many game guides as possible, for as many games as possible." The problem is that they spawn not only strategy guides for games hardly justified for this format, but more so that their books are qualitatively poor. Admittedly there has been a slight rise in quality over the past 10 years, but the sloppy and erroneous layouts and information almost never justify a purchase at these companies. However, the majority of the gaming market - say 90% - doesn't even look at the company name when buying a strategy guide, so there's no reason beyond ethics for these companies to care. Fortunately, there has been a slight shift in approach, where these companies are realizing that one author

simply cannot write a complete guide on his own, and as such the quality of a few "big-name" guides has risen slightly. On the other hand, most layout approaches aren't as good as they should be, and the same can be said about various tactical tips, inaccuracy and incompletion of the content. On the other hand we have the European companies, Piggyback and FuturePress, of which the former is the uncrowned king in the guide writing business. Their approach is to make very few guides a year - two to three at most - but to make them perfect in almost every possible way. While strategy guides always remain a product of marketing, if you need any reason to warrant a purchase at all, it's because their books are in the best condition they could've possibly reached you, having excellent binding, highly qualitative layouts and an ocean of information and trivia. The only downsides to this approach are the fact that not every game can be covered (only highly popular games can be), and that a collector's edition might be pricey in these difficult times for some people. Where Piggyback's fashionable office is located in the beautiful Hamburg city center, my trip to FuturePress requires a little more dedication, but I eventually manage to find their headquarters in a back alley of a more sober neighborhood. The people are all very friendly, although it becomes immediately apparent that they don't have the contacts Piggyback does. FuturePress still makes better guides than Prima and Bradygames, but a sore reality is that they only get to buy the rights from Prima and Brady themselves - mostly just for the European market. Then there's the free, online sources of gaming help, ranging from the vast library of text-based documents on GameFAQs, to the - sorry to say, but poorly made - semi-free guides of Gamespot and IGN, to wiki pages dedicated to specific games, to in-depth guides by prolific authors at Supercheats, to more simple websites that mainly offer cheats only. An interesting format sprung from Youtube recently: Video talkthroughs. There are few reasons to be a big fan of this format, if only for the reason that there's no proper search function, but there are more downsides to it which are all discussed later. In this turbulent world of ever-changing formats for game guides, which direction are we headed and better yet, which direction is best to be headed towards? THE FUTURE It's mostly about making choices regarding the height of your standards and arguably everyone would want the highest standard of quality, even if the information is free. When looking for any source of game information, this would translate into the following criteria: Getting everything out of your game in the most convenient way possible. This is the approach that the better official companies take when making their tomes, so it might as well be your - admittedly ultimate - demand when looking for a free guide online. So let's compare the different formats to see how well they work when this criteria is applied. LOW-QUALITY, SEMI-FREE GUIDES @ GAMESPOT & IGN I'll start off with the - usually widely promoted - semi-free game guides on Gamespot and IGN. First of all, keep in mind that the guys writing these aren't paid a top-notch salary, and that they have to spit out guides at a rather fast pace. Add to this the fact that writing for video games as a job takes most of the fun out of the gaming experience and you get rushed guides with half-decent text and accompanied screenshots that have no existential purpose but to serve as filler. It's true; the walkthroughs are usually rather globally written, serving only to get you from point A to point B, and will help you only when

you're stuck and have absolutely no clue as to where to go. The "in-depth" sections mostly cover only the basics and are hardly worth mentioning. Quite a lot of people *will* however use these guides, simply because they're decently advertised online. A solution for improvement would theoretically be simple, but it's similar to the final conclusion we'll land at in the final section of this essay, so let's stay patient and unspoiled for now. A permanent problem these sites face is the low budget they're willing to spend on game guides (in other words, they lack idealism altogether. This is one of the reasons I'd recommend against using these sites, but that's a complete different story). WIKI-PAGES; GREAT IDEALISM, LESS GREAT FORMAT Wiki pages are a newly born alternative and their pros and cons have already been briefly discussed above. They suffer from the same problem as the semi-free guides previously discussed, namely that they lack in-depth information incorporated in the walkthrough itself. Wikis make up for this with their nearly infinite amount of pages on subjects, but this is also a weakness; this sometimes leaves you searching around and in circles. Credit is hardly given when editing wiki pages, so for the exception of a few top-notch contributors, it is a business mostly fueled in bit-sized pieces by a large community of people. Unpopular games aren't covered by wiki pages at all, and there are far too few contributors in the first place. CHEAT SITES; INCORPORATED WITH GUIDES As for cheat sites in general, there's not much more to be found besides just cheats. There's one major exception to the rule, being Supercheats. The guides written here by prolific authors have a few nice additions, including video (and sometimes screenshot) support. Not all guides are of the same quality, but there's a solution for this problem we'll soon land at. VIDEO TALKTHROUGHS; TOO FEW BENEFITS OVER TEXT Video talkthroughs have a few benefits, the biggest being that the author no longer needs to write everything down into words when creating the talkthrough. This doesn't benefit the user looking for help, and they are only helped in very specific contexts by this format, which lends itself perfectly for "finding hidden objects", and I dare say it lends itself for this purpose only. It works great if you see someone walk straight to an item you were looking for and that you struggled to find when reading through text. As such, videos are a great addition to text, but not as a replacement. Why not? For one, videos don't have a proper search function, and can never describe handy statistics, such as a complete item/equipment list as featured in most role playing games (but very thinkable in adventure games as well, where this can take the form of a table that compares gunfire power for example). The viewer also needs to deduct strategies from the video and comments of the author alone. This can work for a straight A-to-B walkthrough or for beating a boss, but it's a pain when the author decides against exploring optional parts when you wanted to do just that - or vice versa. An other disadvantage is that videos contain spoilers. You might be able to click away the video right before spoilers come up, especially if the author warns you in advance, but you can imagine this is a stressful situation. A last drawback of videos is that they're time consuming to watch, so it's almost like you're playing the game twice; once by someone else playing it for you. Videos can still be, it has to be said, an excellent addition to text when they visually show something text has difficulties with to describe, but they have little value beyond this feature.

FAQS: DO THESE TEXT DOCUMENTS REALLY HOLD THE FUTURE? If someone would ask me if there is still a need for text-based documents (FAQs) in a few years, I'd wholeheartedly tell them yes, but I'd also tell them that things are in need of a little tweaking. FAQs suffer from less problems than other formats because they're well organized, rapidly downloadable, quickly searchable by using [tags] and Ctrl + F, they're printable, easy to save onto your hard disk, and they have all information stored in one place. There's only one 'problem'; the big differences in quality between FAQs. Some guides remain unfinished, some are finished but have a very poor layout, and only a handful can be considered pure quality. Now I know (of course I do), these authors all write in their spare time and we should all be thankful for whatever they contribute - no arguing there. What would you expect from free guides? But if it's easy to make things better, why not give it a try? On a side note, I wouldn't think the solution lies in the new html guides that GameFAQs now features. It theoretically allows for a few decent features, especially if authors would choose to include screenshots that enrich their written text (but a danger lies in abundance). Better yet would be placing videos at parts where text lacks in its descriptive function as argued for in the previous paragraphs. Having a few videos to show difficult item locations would be great. Besides these benefits, the format is no longer easy to print (not a disaster), it is arguably not as easy to search through compared to a compact text document, it is a pain to save onto an external space such as a hard disk or USB stick, and for some reason they're not as easy to organize as text. Besides this, it takes more time for both writers and administrator(s) to create this format. If anything, this format reminds mostly of the unsuccessful superguides at mycheats, the difference being that everyone can contribute to those. TEXT ENHANCED WITH PICTURES? Random screenshots as used in the semi-free guides on IGN and Gamespot don't add much value for the reader, and the only purpose they serve is as eye candy. Picture support, as one could call it, derives its purpose from *supporting* the reader in getting something done in the game. One of the main purposes to support a reader is to tell them where they need to go, or to show where a player is headed towards. As a rule, screenshots don't lend themselves well for this purpose. They're too static and can only show a limited frame of information currently going on in the game. Maps on the other hand are much more abstract, and can show readers a wide variety of (item) locations, as well as giving a general overview. This is the biggest drawback of text documents, and although text maps can be functional, picture maps are easier to use. Fortunately, it's very easy to upload a picture map to GameFAQs and integrate it in a text guide as a link. The main point here is that pictures generally distract from the actual guide material. Eye candy is nice, but you'll get enough of eye candy while playing your games. GUIDE WRITERS UNITE! The solution is already partly being executed by some authors who co-author with each other, but it'd be interesting and easy enough to take this to the next level. You'll unlikely have found yourself staring at a few different FAQs, wondering which one to pick. Perhaps you randomly chose one, perhaps one of an author who sounded familiar, or perhaps you looked for recent updates and the size of the document, or maybe you clicked on all of them and made your decision after briefly browsing each. In any case, several authors all decided to make their own version of a FAQ. Some of them don't cover much more besides the walkthrough, others write complete guides, and still others make an attempt at fully uncovering every aspect of the game. While there's something to say

for writing everything all by yourself - you get your own credits and you *can* have fun while writing - it is worth asking the question whether or not you're actually contributing something that hasn't already been done before; do guides exist with better informative text that are faster available than yours, are better searchable, more concisely and clearly written, perhaps more beautifully laid out? Because if they do, realize that the only good reasons to continue writing for such a game are either because you want to practice your writing skills (a completely legitimate reason), or because you think you can do better than the best existing guide available (legitimate, but sometimes difficult to attain). A final, alternative point of view could be to take "a different approach", which always comes down to either using more or using less humor, or describing more or less spoilers, simply because "other approaches" don't exist: The video game you're writing about demands a certain structured approach with little variation possible. Do realize that even with a "different approach", the most important goal is still to write just as qualitatively as the best available stuff already launched elsewhere. Also keep in mind that the author(s) of the most qualitative guide might've chosen to use a fair share of humor and keep spoilers to a minimum (arguably a favorable combination for the majority of readers). Even when there's no information available at all on a certain game, which is common when games have just been released, it can still be important to keep the highest possible quality in mind, simply because someone else might outdo your guide soon. While I realize that some of the above might sound radical in the ears of certain writers, I think it also sounds very logical. If you compare the amount of visits of a high-quality guide to a merely decent guide you'd notice a drastic difference between figures. The star system already differentiates - and rightfully so - between guides to make qualitative ones stand out. This is one of the best features GameFAQs has implemented in a long time, and it would be great to see it continue down that road to underline and stress the importance of high quality work. I wouldn't want to argue that guides should no longer be posted if they are of less quality than others (although it would be good to have an unwritten rule that unfinished walkthroughs do not get posted if a starred guide already exists for that game), as it also encourages writers to start in 'the business'. The point here is that everyone would greatly benefit if authors started to work together in an efficient manner. ENDLESS AND OPTIMISTIC, YET NOT IMPOSSIBLE GUIDE WRITING IDEALISM Wouldn't it be great to have one (perhaps two) excellent - no, nearly perfect guide(s) for whatever game you desire? Or at least for the most popular titles? The problem with raising the bar this high is that it starts to take very large amounts of time to write such a guide, and few authors are in the favorable position of having endless amounts of spare time (or are willing to devote so much of their spare time to the writing of FAQs). Another problem with striving for extraordinary quality is that the community at least partly consists of younger writers who are still working on improving their guide writing skills. If authors would form teams that work together on certain guides, they'd not only be sure that people would love their cooperative work, it would also save the authors a lot of time and they'd still have made a beautiful piece of work in the end. This is the approach that the better official game guide companies take. They work in teams, and it shows. Have people focus on a certain aspect of the guide and beautifully shape the guide together, literally. In FAQ writing, this could easily be put to practice. Someone could work on the walkthrough, perhaps coordinating sections with someone else if their writing styles match (which is no necessity by any means). Another author could provide ASCII artwork, still someone else could help work on side quests and parts that require optional exploration, someone could be working on assembling item and

equipment lists. Such a team of four to five people can easily be credited at the top of the document, revealing their (alias) names in all pride and glory. WHAT IS THE ULTIMATE GOAL OF GUIDE WRITING? The same idea could be applied to all online guide writing, and it would greatly improve the overall quality of what's available. Ultimately it would find sponsoring and receive some donations from the community, but even without this it can make a great leap towards reaching the ultimate goal of guide writing: To not only help someone from A to B, but to really *enhance* someone's experience of a game in every possible way, giving people the option to fully explore and enjoy a videogame. You can watch linear movies, you can read linear books, but you must actively explore a video game, and in some cases, only a high-quality strategy guide is going to help you do just that. It would be unfair to demand from gamers to purchase such a strategy guide for every game they buy. Ideally, the future of video game guides would have prolific authors overcome their ego and team up to shape perfect text-based strategy guides. Readers could in turn show a little more praise when truly deserved... Now what are some ways to improve and promote quality? INTRODUCE A FAQ OF THE YEAR CONTEST; OMG, GOLD STARS!? A few great ways that could help promote authors to work together in order to reach higher levels of quality (and faster, too) would be to not only hold a FAQ of the Month contest, but also a FAQ of the Year contest (or alternatively a FAQ of the Season, but that sounds kind of lame). There are too few monthly contributions to really judge quality alone (game popularity and thus guide demand also plays its role), but a yearly competition on top of the FotM contest could really push author(teams) to the limit. Although it'd be nice, it doesn't even need to involve prize money - I bet many guide writers would commit murder to have a gold star featured next to their own or team's name for that matter. A GUIDE WRITER CONTEST INSTEAD OF THESE REPETITIVE CHARACTER AND GAME CONTESTS? It could also greatly help to put authors a little more in the spotlights. A simple poll could do wonders alone, not to imagine a "favorite author" contest, putting the building bricks of GameFAQs in the spotlight for once - the authors of FAQs themselves - instead of the repetitive character contests that are now being held yearly. A trial would be nice at the very least; contributors really like these contests, as the writer's board has shown repeatedly year after year for over a decade now. It'd also motivate aspiring writers to give it a shot of their own - there's nothing to lose. On a different but related note, an other possible way to easily motivate qualitative work under authors would be by showing the amount of stars - which implies recommendations or FotM prizes - on the author's forum account, similar to how Karma is displayed. GIVE SOME, GET SOME The idea is that when the quality of text guides jumps, the time is ripe for the contributor recognition to rise as well, and quite frankly, it's been way overdue for a long time. The only thing that currently fuels guide writers are thank-you emails (or the general idea of helping people). With little extra effort, the shrinking community of veteran guide writers can get a new impulse and new goals.

JOIN OR START A DISCUSSION ON GAMEFAQS OR FACEBOOK We've got a long way to go, but it should be possible to push guide writing a step in the right direction, starting here. Things like this don't take off without discussions, so spread the word and let GameFAQs know about this. You can also join the discussion on my facebook page, located at: facebook.com/absolutesteve On a closing note, I'm currently looking for prolific authors that share this vision and want to join a team. Some spots have already been taken, and places are limited. If you're interested, apply at faq@shillatime.org and send a link to your contributor page and your best piece of work. I thank you for taking the time reading this.

1.14 COMPANION CONTROLS [BSC-1.14] The 'companion wheel' comes up whenever you interact with companions, and provides us with several options. Going clockwise, starting at 12 'o clock:

Besides these two fixed companions you can get assistance from an NCR Ranger or Trooper (if you're in a good reputation with them). Lastly, hiring a bodyguard in Freeside cranks the maximum up to 4, but these guys only help you during your stay in Freeside, so they hardly count. _____________________________________________________________________ 1.2 UNDERSTANDING THE COMPASS [BSC-2] _____________________________________________________________________ HP vll -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-./\ /\ NE E SE The compass (left hand corner) is extremely important for exploration. It's not difficult to use, but a thorough explanation might give you a few insights you would've otherwise missed out on. Let's go over all the features one by one, going from top to bottom.

1. Your health is displayed on top and an indication of your remaining health is given by the amount of lines: . In the example above, health is not at it's maximum, but lies around 4/5th of the max. 2. The 'v' in the example is always at the same place. This denotes your current direction. As you'll see below, directions such as NE, E, SE will circle (i.e. move from left to right) as you move around. In the example above, your character is facing E, meaning you're facing east. 3. Various markers can be spotted above or below the line (-.-.-.-.-.-). Markers seen above this line can appear in [GREEN] or in [RED], and are displayed in this example as (l). These markers notify you of any NPC's in the area. Green means the NPC is neutral/good, red means hostile. The higher your Perception SPECIAL stat, the faster these blips appear on your compass. 4. Lastly, notice the markers below the line (-.-.-.-.-.-), as indicated by /\ in the example above. These show the location of your destination(s), such as an active quest. There is a second marker that you'll sometimes notice on your compass, which looks like a small hollow triangle (not covered in the ASCII example). These small triangles denote a primary or secondary location you haven't found yet. A filled small triangle denotes a location which you have explored at least once. - Considering its simplicity, a short description of the HUD on the right will suffice: It notifies you of your currently remaining AP (Action Points,

as used in VATS), denoted by lines . The condition (CND) of your equipped weapon is denoted by the small bar, and this interface also shows the ammunition in your equipped weapon: (Clip/Total). _____________________________________________________________________ 1.3 TIPS AND TRICKS: [BSC-3] _____________________________________________________________________ Save yourself the trouble and read these tips once or twice. They will greatly increase your self-sufficiency during your wasteland travels, and might even prevent you from dying! Definitely read this before your first playthrough, even if you're not planning to use the walkthrough. 1.31 GENERAL TIPS [BSC-3.1] ? Be sure to save your game often, and keep multiple save games. Fallout New Vegas is a large game, and you might want to reload a previous save game in which you hadn't messed up a particular quest, event, or where you missed an important item. This is one of the most important things for a healthy and enjoyable experience. ? Holster your weapon when there's no direct danger in proximity. This not only allows you to travel faster (two-handed weapons slow your down, although onehanded weapons don't), and it also scares neutral or friendly NPC's less quickly. ? Keep your gun reloaded at all times. You never know what might surprise you around the next corner. ? Never waste ammunition, and never waste Stimpaks, especially on hardcore mode. If you're in need of healing, do it properly and rest. Use V.A.T.S to greatly conserve precious ammo. [If you sleep in a rented bed or own bed, you'll get the Well Rested status that grants 10% extra EXP until it wears off after a couple of hours.] ? When you crouch nearby water you can drink from it. Hold down the button to continuously drink from it, which is a good way to heal yourself at the cost of a few RadAways instead of Stimpaks! ? Learn to use Fast Travel! After having explored a location, simply bring up the World Map on your Pip-Boy and select the location you want to travel to. This saves enormous amounts of time. ? Collect items just for resell purposes. You can check on the value (VAL) of an item in your inventory, and it's wise to sell these whenever the next possibility comes up; Don't let them clutter up your inventory, especially not when you're on a lengthy quest. ? Pressing the Right Stick (on consoles) lifts items/bodies from the ground. It can sometimes be worthwhile to lift up buckets or small wooden crates to find they actualy contain a hidden treasure! ? Always search vending machines for Nuka Cola and Sarsaparilla Bottles. ? Get your Science and Lockpick up to 50 as soon as possible, which allows you to pick locks on all average level locks and terminals. Alternatively boost them to 40 at least, so you can pick locks with the aid of a skill magazine

that gives you a temporary +10 boost. ? It's the game's intention to make you explore the world. Don't rush through the areas, look in every corner and behind every brick, and you'll be richly rewarded. You propbably don't want to end up missing the neatest secrets. ? Fast Travel with your Worldmap! If you are on the worldmap and you find yourself stuck, don't hesitate to use the fast travel option! ? Items with no weight (--) should always be picked up. Even if the item seems useless, you can always sell it in larger amounts later on. If an item does weigh something, look at its value. Is the weight 1 and the value 1? Then it might be better to leave the item. Is the value 50 and the weight 2? You can then sell the item later on and make a profit without putting too much weight on your shoulders! ? The checklists in this survival guide feature two kinds of brackets: 1. [] means that the item doesn't cost you any Karma for taking it. 2. {} may cost you Karma and indicates you must steal the item. Therefore, these items are optional pickups. ? Infinite Caps Glitch: 1. Find a merchant that sells two of the same weapon or armor. 2. Buy the cheapest of their two weapons or armors. 3. Sell it back to the merchant with profit. 4. Repeat and profit more. 1.32 HACKING TIPS [BSC-3.2] You have four attempts each time you access a terminal before you get locked out after the fourth erroneous password attempt. In other words, you have three 'free' tries every time you start up a terminal. The goal is to select the correct password from the gibberish text. Depending on how high your Science skill is, the easier hacking becomes. Roughly speaking, there are three (combinable) methods for hacking terminals: 1. You try three 'free' attempts and back out of the terminal. Simply try your luck once again and repeat this process until you've figured out the password. 3. Whenever you attempt a password, on the right part of the terminal screen it tells you how many letters you've got at correct places. In other words, if you've got three letters correct, start looking for words that use similar letters in similar positions. Example: You attempted "FESTERS" and get 0/7 correct (nothing at all). You can now say to yourself: Okay, all other passwords containing an F as the first letter will be incorrect, all passwords with an E as second letter are incorrect, etcetera. Thus "SYSTEMS" would be incorrect as it contains an E on the fifth spot, and we know that this cannot be a possibility. If you get 1/7 correct, you know that at least one letter is in the right position. This doesn't help you that much, but if you can find any passwords that don't match *any* of the letters in the same positions (compared to "FESTERS", the password "SUCKING" does not contain an "F" at the first spot, not an "E" on the second spot,

not a "S" on the third spot, and so on for all other letters. Thus you can conclude that "SUCKING" is not your key inside the terminal. Not this time, at least... If you get even more letters correct, such as 5/7 with the password "TESTERS", look for words that have various similarities, such as those ending with "TERS". 3. It's possible to replenish your attempts by looking for what I'd like to call bracket combinations. These are brackets such as < >, [ ], () and { } which are linked when highlighted. In other words, when you highlight one of these brackets, more than one character is highlighted, and everything between these brackets is also highlighted. An example would be: {.,::&}. Selecting this can either replenish your attempts, or remove a faulty password from the possibilities. It it wise to first attempt three passwords and then search for brackets, resulting in removing several duds and a possible allowance replenishment, greatly improving your odds. If this doesn't help, either search for another bracket combination or back out of the terminal and try again. 1.33 LOCKPICKING TIPS [BSC 3.3] EASY: AVERAGE: __________ __________ /:::: \ / \::: \ /::::: \ / \:: \ / \:::: \ / \: \ \:: \ \ \ \ \__________/ / / \ \ \__________/ / /

HARD: __________ / \:: \ / \: \ / \ \

\ \ \__________/ /

VERY EASY and VERY HARD have bigger and smaller correct zones respectively. IS THAT A BOBBY PIN IN YOUR POCKET? You can only attempt more difficult locks when ___________ _______________ your lockpick skill has reached a certain DIFFICULTY: REQUIRED SKILL: leven. For example, in order to pick average =-=-=-=-=-= =-=-=-=-=-=-=-= locks you'll need a lockpick skill of at least Very Easy 0 50+, and for hard locks you need 75+. The Easy 25 locks above indicate example ranges of where Average 50 your bobby pin can be placed at in order to Hard 75 unlock the lock with the screw driver. Placing Very Hard 100 the bobby pin correct is impossible without trial and error. You know you're close to the correct position (or rather, "correct zone" as shown above) if you can turn the screw driver nearly 90 degrees vertical. The further you can turn the screwdriver, the closer you are. If you're haven't hit the right spot yet (and I could make a nice analogy here), adjust your BOBBY PIN (if you know what I mean) and turn it to a better position. In other words, you can turn it left or right. If you turn it to, say, the right, and you get the feeling the bobby pin starts to tremble sooner than before, you know the "correct zone" is the other way, and you can move closer. Keep adjusting it until you hit the right spot and the treasures will be yours... If you fail, your Bobby Pin *BREAKS*, and you'll have to try again,

that is, if you have another Bobby Pin left in your .. pocket.. _____________________________________________________________________ 1.4 PRE-ORDER BONUSES: [BSC-4] _____________________________________________________________________ There are four pre-bonuses you could've gotten by pre-ordering the game. It's an extremely lame marketing stunt to have these packages include exclusive items, but that's the kind of modern world we're living in. The following packages are available: Caravan Pack: - Lightweight Leather Armor, Sturdy Caravan Shotgun, Repair Kits x4, Binoculars. - Available by ordering from Steam, Wal-Mart, Mighty Ape and Play.com. - Armored Vault 13 Suit, Weathered 10mm Pistol, Vault 13 Canteen, Stimpaks x5. - Available by ordering from GameStop, GAME and EB Games.

Classic Pack:

Mercenary Pack: - Lightweight Metal Armor, Mercenary's Grenade Rifle, Super Stimpak x3, Doctor's bag x3. - Available by ordering from Best Buy and JB-Hi Fi. Tribal Pack: - Tribal Raiding Armor, Broad Machete, Bleak Venom x5, Throwing Spear x10. - Available by ordering from Amazon.com and direct2drive.com.

Note: The armor and weapon in each package are exclusive content and cannot be found in-game. The Vault 13 Canteen is also exclusive. _____________________________________________________________________ 1.5 GAME DIFFICULTY & HARDCORE MODE: [BSC-5] _____________________________________________________________________ Game Difficulty: ---------------The game's difficulty can be adjusted during gameplay at any time, back and forth, ranging from Very Easy to Very Hard. The table below summarizes the effects of difficulty on gameplay: .------------.-----------------.--------------. Difficulty: Player's Damage: Enemy Damage: ============ ================= ============== Very Easy 200% 50% Easy 150% 75% Normal 100% 100% Hard 75% 150% Very Hard 50% 200% '------------'-----------------'--------------' Hardcore Mode: -------------Hardcore mode can be turned on at the start of the game, and while you *can* turn it off at any point during the game, you can not turn it back on again.

Beating the game on hardcore mode grants you the Hardcore trophy or achievement. Realize that Hardcore is not a difficulty setting, it is merely additional realism making the game harder. This includes: 1. Wounds heal over time, meaning that stimpaks heal over time, and RadAway also removes radiation over time 2. Ammo has weight, so you can no longer infinitely collect ammunition from all over the game. 3. Your character will dehydrate, starve and suffer from sleep deprivation if you don't drink, eat, or rest enough. 4. Companions will die instead of falling unconscious. __ ___ _ _ _______ _ _ ___ ___ _ _ ___ _ _ \ \ / /_\ / /_ _ _ \/ _ \ / __ _ \ \/\/ / _ \ __ ' < __ / (_) _ (_ __ ___ ___(_) \_/\_/_/ \_\____ _ \_\ _ _ _ _ _\\___/ \___/ \___ _ _ ____________________________________________________________________[WLK] ______________________________________________________________________________ FaLlOuTf AlLoUtFa 2.1 Ain't That a Kick in the Head [WLK-1] LlOuTfAl _____________________________________________________________________ LoUtFaLl OuTfAlLo You've just been shot in the head - twice! - and left for dead.

There are many men in Fallout New Vegas...) and change your head the way you see fit, then take control of your character. Before walking to the Vigor Tester, do a little exploring of the room first: Grab the [TODAY'S PHYSICIAN] from the desk behind the chirurgic table; it's next to the type writer. To your right you can find a [BLOOD PACK] and a [MED-X] from the medical cabinet, and inspect the Chemistry Set on the desk with the computer: You'll need 25 Science to fiddle with this, so just take note of this for now.

G. First Aid Box x2 . . . . [] ignore the [BROKEN 9MM SUBMACHINE GUN] lying on top of it for now. The destroyed cabinet to the Doc's left contains [STIMPAK x3], [RAD- X] and [ANTIVENOM]. The [GUN CASE] on the bottom shelf is also worth a look, and contains some ammo and a Laser Pistol. In general, most boxes like these contain semi- random contents, so this guide will give you the general description and locations of these boxes. THE VIG-O-MATIC VIGOR TESTER Your SPECIAL stats (which stand for Strength, Perception, Endurance, Charisma, Intelligence, Agility and Luck respectively) can now be adjusted. Each stat starts at a base of 5 points, and you receive 5 spare points to spread over the your stats. It's entirely up to you how you want to play the game, but overall Strength and Intelligence are quite important, so it is recommended to spend extra points on them. Charisma is required for very few perks and has very little value - you can greatly compensate a low Charisma by putting extra points in Speech. If you want to customize your own build, feel free to do so. If you're a player who likes to snatch the best from everything, creating a very balanced all-round character build, try the following starting stats (and adjust to your liking). It can also be a good idea to look at the stats and perk sections [STA-1] and [STA-3] respectively to see which perks require certain SPECIAL tresholds. STR: 8, PER: 5, END: 8, CHR: 1, INT: 9, AGL: 6, LCK: 3 Tip: Never go over 9 in your initial build. You will be able to permanently boost all your SPECIAL stats by +1 much later in the game. Perky Awesomeness: With the above all-round build, the only notable perks you miss out on are the ones that have CHR or LCK requirements. Arguably, of these perks the only one of which it's a shame you must skip it, is the Better Criticals perk, requiring the high amount of 6 Luck. With the above build, useful Perks are maximized, and it serves as the basis for making a superb all-round character. When you're done with the SPECIAL stats, move to the other side of the wall and loot the cabinet for [BOTTLE CAPS x8]. In any case, sit down on the bench before Doc Mitchell to finalize your character build. SKILLS AND TRAITS The Doc will ask you various questions. Depending on how you answer them, your character build changes. You can still adjust the three skills you want to boost in a menu after the dialogue options, and the same applies to traits. Regarding skills, and this is only a personal recommendation, Lockpick, Science and either Guns or Energy Weapon is a decent start. Regarding traits, it's completely up to you, but I'd highly recommend Kamikaze since this boosts your VATS AP by +10 points, and only reduces your Damage Resistance by -2. Follow the Doc to the exit and he'll give you a bunch of goodies, the most important being the [PIP-BOY 3000]. He'll also hand you [MOJAVE EXPRESS DELIVERY ORDER x6], [BOBBY PIN x12], [STIMPAK x4], [BOTTLE CAP x18], [LASER PISTOL], [20 ENERGY CELLS], and a [VAULT 21 JUMPSUIT]. You can now explore the rooms to the south of the Doc's House for some more items. Remember that you can use the 'compass bar' on the lower left to see which direction you're facing.

The cabinet in the southern hall contains an [AMMO BOX],[BUFFALO GOURD SEED x3], and [FIRST AID BOX x2]. While the bedroom to the east doesn't contain much, you can check the dresser, and there are also packs of cigs in the small cabinet next to the bed, which you can sell back to Doc Mitchell for a small sum of money. Just tell him you need medical supplies to open up the shop window. The last thing to loot is the refrigerator. Exit to the worldmap. ______________________________________________________________________________ FaLlOuTf AlLoUtFa 2.2 Back in the Saddle [WLK-2] LlOuTfAl _____________________________________________________________________ LoUtFaLl OuTfAlLo Embark on your first real quest.

When you're outside, look around the area for a security bot named Victor. This is actually an optional part of the other quest you can currently do (They Went That-a-way). In any case, head into the Prospector Saloon to the northeast.

Inside, Sunny Smiles almost immediately approaches you and tells you to meet her outside. Snatch the {FIXIN' THINGS} skill magazine from the cabinet with the world globe if you'd like, although you'll lose some karma. Stealing things is best done when no one's around, and crouching also makes it less likely to get caught. You can also steal a {.357 MAGNUM REVOLVER} behind the bar, or even open the cash register for a quick buck. From now on, items denoted with {} brackets indicate a stealing procedure. Follow Sunny to the back and approach her (she's standing towards the northwest). She'll then hand you a [VARMINT RIFLE] and [5.56MM AMMO x30]. Shoot three sarsaparilla bottles from the fence and Sunny will ask you to join her and waste some Geckos. You can either end the tutorial, or join her. KILLING GECKO'S Follow Sunny south, then crouch when you're approaching the geckos. Sneak as close as possible to the windmill, then enter VATS (or not) and waste the two geckos. If you've lost any HP, drink from the clean water to replenish your health. Geckos can often be looted for gecko meat and/or gecko hides, so always search bodies, including animal corpses. Report back to Sunny and she'll once again give you the option to kill more geckos. After accepting, she hands

you an additional [5.56MM AMMO x60]. Not too shabby! Follow Sunny to the other wells and kill the remaining geckos. Talk to Sunny for your reward: 50 Bottle Caps. She's still got more to teach you, though! Accept and you'll start the 'By a Campfire on the Trail' quest. ______________________________________________________________________________ FaLlOuTf AlLoUtFa 2.3 By a Campfire on the Trail [WLK-3] LlOuTfAl _____________________________________________________________________ LoUtFaLl OuTfAlLo You still need to learn much about your surroundings.

Salesman Weekly . . . . . {} J. Meeting People . . . . . {} Kill the two new enemies in front of the schoolhouse: These Giant Mantis Nymphs aren't very powerful, so a blast or two from your Varmint Rifle should do the trick. Enter the schoolhouse through the eastern door (to avoid confusion, this means that you'll be *facing* west while entering the door). OPTIONAL: EXPLORING GOODSPRINGS SCHOOLHOUSE Reload your gun, as there are at least five Giant Mantis Nymphs in this room. After destroying them, grab the [PROGRAMMER'S DIGEST] from the desk next to the [FOOTLOCKER]. There's also a [BOBBY PIN] next to the Easy Terminal, which in turn opens the nearby [SAFE]. Here are, once more, some reminders on how to hack terminals and pick locks. HACKING TIPS You have four attempts each time you access a terminal before you get locked out after the fourth erroneous password attempt. In other words, you have three 'free' tries every time you start up a terminal. The goal is to select the correct password from the gibberish text. Depending on how high your Science skill is, the easier hacking becomes. Roughly speaking, there are three (combinable) methods for hacking terminals:

1. You try three 'free' attempts and back out of the terminal. Simply try your luck once again and repeat this process until you've figured out the password. 3. Whenever you attempt a password, on the right part of the terminal screen it tells you how many letters you've got at correct places. In other words, if you've got three letters correct, start looking for words that use similar letters in similar positions. Grab a notebook and systematically stripe off any incorrect passwords. Example: You attempted "FESTERS" and get 0/7 correct (nothing at all). You can now say to yourself: Okay, all other passwords containing an F as the first letter will be incorrect, all passwords with an E as second letter are incorrect, etcetera. Thus "SYSTEMS" would be incorrect as it contains an E on the fifth spot, and we know that this cannot be a possibility. If you get 1/7 correct, you know that at least one letter is in the right position. This doesn't help you that much, but if you can find any passwords that don't match *any* of the letters in the same positions (compared to "FESTERS", the password "SUCKING" does not contain an "F" at the first spot, not an "E" on the second spot, not a "S" on the third spot, and so on for all other letters. Thus you can conclude that "SUCKING" is not your key inside the terminal. Not this time, at least... If you get even more letters correct, such as 5/7 with the password "TESTERS", look for words that have various similarities, such as those ending with "TERS". 3. It's possible to replenish your attempts by looking for what I'd like to call bracket combinations. These are brackets such as < >, [ ], () and { } which are linked when highlighted. In other words, when you highlight one of these brackets, more than one character is highlighted, and everything between these brackets is also highlighted. An example would be: {.,::&}. Selecting this can either replenish your attempts, or remove a faulty password from the possibilities. It it wise to first attempt three passwords and then search for brackets, resulting in removing several duds and a possible allowance replenishment, greatly improving your odds. If this doesn't help, either search for another bracket combination or back out of the terminal and try again. LOCKPICKING TIPS EASY: AVERAGE: HARD: __________ __________ __________ /:::: \ / \::: \ / \:: \ /::::: \ / \:: \ / \: \ / \:::: \ / \: \ / \ \ \:: \ \ \ \ \__________/ / / \ \ \__________/ / / \ \ \__________/ / /

VERY EASY and VERY HARD have bigger and smaller "correct zones" respectively.

You can only attempt more difficult locks when ___________ _______________ your lockpick skill has reached a certain DIFFICULTY: REQUIRED SKILL: leven. For example, in order to pick average =-=-=-=-=-= =-=-=-=-=-=-=-= locks you'll need a lockpick skill of at least Very Easy 0 50+, and for hard locks you need 75+. The Easy 25 locks above indicate example ranges of where Average 50 your bobby pin can be placed at in order to Hard 75 unlock the lock with the screw driver. Placing Very Hard 100 the bobby pin correct is impossible without trial and error. You know you're close to the correct position (or rather, "correct zone" as shown above) if you can turn the screw driver nearly 90 degrees vertical. The further you can turn the screwdriver, the closer you are. If you're haven't hit the right spot yet (and I could make a nice analogy here), adjust your BOBBY PIN (if you know what I mean) and turn it to a better position. In other words, you can turn it left or right. If you turn it to, say, the right, and you get the feeling the bobby pin starts to tremble sooner than before, you know the "correct zone" is the other way, and you can move closer. Keep adjusting it until you hit the right spot and the treasures will be yours... If you fail, your Bobby Pin *BREAKS*, and you'll have to try again, that is, if you have another Bobby Pin left in your .. pocket.. There's nothing of interest in the main classroom, but the storage room to the west contains [BOBBY PIN x2]. Exit the school building. You can find the [XANDER ROOT x3] on the east side of the school building, buried in the ground nearby the large tree trunk. Now travel to the far northeast, following your compass' quest marker. Go past the Prospector Saloon and head uphill. You might come across a Bark Schorpion around here, which is slightly tougher than the creatures you've faces thus far. Fortunately, it's also slower, so keep your distance and you'll be more than fine. The cemetary is actually located on top of the hill with the water tower. There are several Bloatflies floating around, but these are easily dispatched. Find the [BROC FLOWER] in the small tree to the east. Before you head back to Sunny, enjoy the northeast sight; it's New Vegas! Also carefully inspect the northwest part of the hill to find a [SNOWGLOBE - GOODSPRINGS] next to a small tombstone. These can be collected and sold to a certain collector which we'll get to later. While it's not necessary, you can fast travel to Goodsprings Source (where Sunny is waiting for you) by bringing up your Pip-Boy 3000's Worldmap and selecting the location you want to fast travel to. Activate the campfire and select Healing Powder from the Recipe List. After creating this, Sunny hints at a next part of a quest. Fast travel to Goodsprings to find out what's up. Enter the Prospector Saloon and talk to Trudy after she's done conversing. The quest now ends, and a new one starts. Inquire with her about all possible subjects before moving on; she'll even ask you to repair her radio. Check out the supply room to the southwest and at least snatch the {SALESMAN WEEKLY} and {MEETING PEOPLE} from one of the crates. There's also a floor safe here, but it's got a hard lock. Note: If you have a Repair skill of 20+ you can repair Trudy's radio behind the counter. She'll hand you 50 Bottle Caps (or more with 20+ Barter). ______________________________________________________________________________ FaLlOuTf AlLoUtFa 2.4 Ghost Town Gunfight [WLK-4] LlOuTfAl _____________________________________________________________________

Looks like a lad named Ringo is in big trouble. It also appears you can earn some reputation around Goodsprings. What will you do? _____________________________________________________________________ QUEST REWARD: 50 Bottle Caps. QUEST OUTLINE: 1. Offer to help Ringo deal with the Powder Rangers. 2. Talk to Sunny Smiles about fighting the Powder Gangers. 3. (OPTIONAL) Enlist the help of Trudy. 4. (OPTIONAL) Acquire additional medical supplies from Doc Mitchell. 5. (OPTIONAL) Acquire Easy Pete's Dynamite. 6. (OPTIONAL) Convince Chet to open his store's stock to the town. _____________________________________________________________________

AREA ITEM LIST: GOODSPRINGS GAS STATION A. Boxing Times . . . . . . [] Ringo can be found at the Poseidon's Energy B. Duffle Bag . . . . . . . [] gas station, part of Goodsprings and located C. Floor Safe (Very Easy) . [] to the east. Ringo tells you his situation D. 9mm Rounds x20 x2 . . . . {} the second you enter, and proposes to get more E. Stimpak x3 . . . . . . . [] people to help. Explore this room first as there are quite a few handy items lying around here. For starters, collect the [BOXING TIMES] from the shelves in front of you. There are also various sacks and crates on top of and around the counter that may hold various goodies. The cash register holds several bottle caps. More important is the [DUFFLE BAG] in the corner behind the counter, which contains quite a lot of ammunition, among other things. The [VERY EASY FLOOR SAFE] also holds useful ammo. Lastly, you can steal {9MM ROUNDS x20 x2} from underneath the counter, but Ringo is very likely to catch you. Return to Sunny (who might be located in one of the houses, just follow the quest marker on your compass) and tell her about your situation. Also converse about all other subjects and she'll give you some useful location details and [BOBBY PIN x3] (even though we just cracked that lock open). Several optional parts of this quest can now be done. Depending on how good your skills are, you can (try to) convince some of the people below to help you: ?1. Trudy: Found in the house to the south. Requires 25+ Speech Skill or 25+ Sneak Skill. The Meeting People skill magazine may help to improve your skill enough. Interestingly, a Stealth Boy will instantly raise your Sneak skill to 100, so that does the trick too. ?2. Easy Pete: Found in the southeast house. Requires 25+ Explosives Skill. ?3. Chet: Found in the general store. Requires 25+ Barter Skill. Note that you can boost your Barter skill by +10 by using the Salesman Weekly that you found earlier. Alternatively it's possible to buy a Salesman Weekly from Chet himself. Note however that these magazines do NOT stack on top of each other, so you'll need a Barter skill of at least 15 (since +10 is all you'll get from the skill magazine(s). ?4. Doc Mitchell: He'll hand you [STIMPAK x3]. Return to Ringo at the gas station and tell him you're ready. Follow Sunny and Ringo and help them to defeat the Powder Ganger. Pull out your best weapons

and defeat all gang members. Do this successfully (protecting Ringo in the process) and your reputation will change: Better in Goodsprings, worse for Powder Gangers. Be sure to loot the gangers from their armor (equipping this will disguise you as a Powder Ganger, so don't go walking around with it just like that). In any case, that's enough snooping around Goodsprings for now! Let's move on to bigger things. ______________________________________________________________________________ FaLlOuTf AlLoUtFa 2.5 They Went That-a-Way [WLK-5] LlOuTfAl _____________________________________________________________________ LoUtFaLl OuTfAlLo Okay, so who the hell was that son of a gun that shot you in the UtFaLlOu head?

(OPTIONAL) Talk to Victor in Goodsprings about your rescue. 2. Inquire about your delivery assignment with the administrator of the Mojave Express in Primm. 3. Find Primm's lawman to get information on where your attackers went. 4. Head to Novac through Nipton. Ask around Novac about your attackers. (to be continued) _____________________________________________________________________ Select They Went That-a-Way in your Quest Menu to activate the quest markers and be headed to Primm, located to the far south. As you traverse the wasteland further, you're given the option to rebuild your character. If it's fine the way it was, great, otherwise apply some changes and be done with it. PRIMM If you were expecting Primm to be a friendly place, I have to disappoint you. Escaped convicts have taken over the town. Follow the large road straight through the city, (help the NCR troops out in a firefight if you wish), go under the viaduct and enter the city to your left (east). Dispatch more convicts on your way and follow the quest marker into the Vikki and Vance Casino. Inside, a man named Johnson Nash will tell you a great deal of valuable information, and also gives you the opportunity to do another side quest called 'My Kind Of Town'. While there's plenty to steal in Vikki and Vance, this guide now proceeds with the quest(s). AREA ITEM LIST: Bison Steve Maintenance Key . . . . . . . . . .

BISON STEVE HOTEL (GROUND FLOOR) First, we're absolutely going to go to the Bison Steve hotel across the street. Waste the convict (possibly two) in the first room, then check the counter on your right (south). While the door has a hard lock, the terminal has an easy difficulty and also unlocks the door. In the room behind this door you can find the [BISON STEVE MAINTENANCE KEY] on the table, plus [MED-X x3], [9MM PISTOL], [RAD-X],

[] from the iron cabinet. The [AVERAGE SAFE] L. Purified Water x3 . . . . [] also contains some decent stuff, but you might M. Purified Water x3 . . . . [] need to read a skill magazine for this. Tip: Dynamite works especially well to take out convicts in this area. Better yet, most convicts have a stick or two on them, refreshing your supply as you move onward. Head east and go into the first room labeled 'Gift Shop'. Take note of the various teddy bears and toy cars, then grab [BOTTLE CAP x7] from the counter. Also take note of the [HARD FLOOR SAFE] behind the counter, which you'll most likely need to leave alone for the moment. Go down the hall and enter through the Maintenance Door on the southeast (with the Bison Steve Maintenance Key you found just now). These halls lead you right to the trapped Deputy Beagle, but you'll need to take out several convicts too. After defeating all of them, including their leader (who comes equipped with an Incinerator, so be careful), rest up in the bed and loot the falled fridge for [PURIFIED WATER x3]. There are [PURIFIED WATER x3] in the cabinet, but that's about it for the kitchen. MY KIND OF TOWN? It requires a 40+ Speech Skill to make the deputy talk, so set him free if you don't fill the requirement. Note: While the Bison Hotel also has a 1st floor, you may choose to return to explore this at a later time. Go back outside and talk to the deputy. Now that he's calmed down he'll give you some more information on where to go next. You can either continue with the 'My Kind Of Town' quest, or proceed with the main quest. Reprogramming Primm Slim (the Protectron Robot in the Vikki and Vance Casino) can be done with a 30+ Science Skill, or with 3 Fission Batteries and 4 Conductors. Tip: If you have enough Science Skill (or 20 + a skill magazine) it's definitely worth the effort to reprogram Primm Slim. It'll net you an easy 430 EXP! Should this make you reach Level 4, it is advisable to take the Educated Perk, which grants you two additional skill points every time you level up. That's 52 additional skill points all the way to level 30! NIPTON Your next location, Nipton, is quite a walk to the south. Follow your quest marker and traverse a small desert until you reach Nipton. If you run into Powder Gangers during your trip, be sure to introduce them to your dynamite sticks. You're just travelling through Nipton this time to reach your next destination, Novac. If you meet any shady or wierd figures during your trip - no worries. Either ignore them or play the game as you'd like. More details will not be given during the main course of the game, but can be found in the subsections. Follow through the canyon until you eventually reach train tracks to the north. You'll likely discover the Ranger Station Charlie along the way. When you finally reach Novac, look for the building west of the giant dinosaur. NOVAC

 Enter the Dino Dee-lite Front Desk (center of town, nearby the giant dino). Check the Mojave Express Dropbox to your left: These can be used to store things in, but for now you'll need to wait until you've discoved a second one. Speak with Jeannie May Crawford behind the counter and inquire about the man in the checkered suit. After getting this information, there's not much to do in this room besides snatching the contents from the [FIRST AID BOX] on the south wall. Go back outside and go through the iron gate to the north/northeast. Manny Vargas, your next source for information, can be found inside the giant dino the Dino Bite Gift Shop. Head upstairs to find Manny. Sure, he'll help you, but he first he asks you to do a little favor for him in turn. ______________________________________________________________________________ FaLlOuTf AlLoUtFa 2.6 Come Fly With Me [WLK-6] LlOuTfAl _____________________________________________________________________ LoUtFaLl OuTfAlLo So there's this bunch of ghouls bothering you, Manny?

(Outline yet to come) _____________________________________________________________________ Select the 'Come Fly With Me' quest from the Quest Menu in your Pip Boy and follow the quest marker to the west of Novac. Follow the road and travel past the viaduct. When you reach the REPCONN facility, clear the area of Feral Ghouls. They're decently fast, but their amounts are nothing you can't handle.

A ghoul tells you to hurry to a big room with a metal staircase on east side of the building. Since he sounds so trustworthy, let's do it. First, explore the ground floor. Take a look at the corpse of a new type of enemy: The Nightkin. Actually, they just re-skinned a Super Mutant from Fallout 3, but it doesn't matter. It's a NIGHTKIN! Wow! In any case, explore the restrooms west and east behind the counter to find [FIRST AID BOX x2], one in each restroom. You can now explore ther building by taking one of many paths. From the entrance, head west and go upstairs. Be sure to loot the Dead Brotherhood Ghoul corpses you come across; most have a Stimpak on them. What could have happened here? Did the Feral Ghouls kill the others?

 Turn west around the corner. The door with the very easy lock doesn't reveal much when opened, so try the second door on the west for better luck; this room contains several beds. If you clean the nearby area of ghouls, you can rest here to recover your health. Back in the previous hall, turn around the corner east and open the easy door to reveal a storage room. There's a [HUNTING REVOLVER] lying on the ground next to the [EASY SAFE], and on top of the safe are [MICROFUSION CELLS x20 x3] and [.308 ROUNDS x24]. The other easy door simply leads to one of the main corridors, and the stairs on your south lead to the main entrance. Instead, explore the room east from here and loot the [FIRST AID BOX] on the desk. The cafetaria to the far east only contains two vending machines, so travel through the northern doorway instead. These halls house several ghouls, so tread with caution. The offices to the north don't contain much of interest, and the active employee terminals all have the same entries. The only thing of interest is the small storage room to the far west/northwest of the offices, secured by an easily picked door. Inside you can find various tool items and a [FIRST AID BOX]. Going east leads to the large room with the metal staircase the intercom was talking about. Go to the top and activate the intercom to unlock the door, then enter the REPCONN Research Labs. REPCONN RESEARCH LABS A strange fellow names Chris Haversam 'welcomes' you. There's nothing of interest on this floor (except perhaps the bedroom to the far west), so follow Chris upstairs and look for Jason Bright (a 'Glowing One' ghoul, follow the quest marker). He'll tell you his side of the story and gives you the [REPCONN BASEMENT KEY] to the basement to deal with the demons (make ONE guess what they're going to be!) There's not much to do around here. You can steal {RADAWAY x3} and {RAD-X x7} from a cabinet in the room east from the room with stairs, or even snatch the contents of a {FIRST AID BOX} next to the southwest doorway (but fat chance you get caught). Exit the way you came, head down the metal staircase and go south. The quest marker points down the south stairs, leading you to the REPCONN Basement.. REPCONN BASEMENT Head down the stairs and go through the door. This room doesn't contain any items (it does contain makeshift beds, which can proce *quite useful*), so proceed to the hallways southwest. You're going to get ambushed any second now, because - as expected - there are Nightkins roaming around here, which have an annoying stealth invisibility, and as such do not show up on your compass as red blips. They're also incredibly quick and their Rebar Clubs tear you apart with amounts of punches you can count on one hand. Nice! First, head all the way south and pick the easy door. A Ghoul named Harland has put up a defensive spot here against the Nightkins. Stay friendly with him and an optional part of the quest starts - you need to rescue someone for him. Before you move into this room, be WARNED that there are various tripwires linked to shotguns, and various bear traps spread all over the place. To make matters worse, there are also countless CONCEALED MINES spread over the place, which can only be disarmed when you have an Explosives skill of 28+. An other way to 'disarm' concealed mines is to shoot them from a distance. They are difficult to spot, but these are their locations in this room: 1. Right

after the piece of catwalk in the middle of the room. 2. To the east/southeast nearby the boxes (there are also various bear traps here, as well as a rigged shotgun). You can also find [12 GAUGE ROUNDS x12 x3] on or around the desk with the rigged shotgun. 3. Between the southwest door and the generator-like machine (next to another beat trap). 4. Right in front of the [FIRST AID BOX] in the southwest corner. 5. There's a trip wire in front of the terminal with two rigged shotguns (but the terminal itself is also rigged, so no need to activate it anyway - although there *is* a [12 GAUGE ROUNDS x12] there). 6. Between the generator device and the boxes. In any case, don't bother going up or Harland turns hostile. (Actually, you (*can* bother and just kill him, or you can choose to do this optional part of the quest). Head back to the room with the makeshift beds. Go around the northwest corner and carefully look around to see if you can spot the Nightkin here (he might ambush you). Dispatch it, then continue downstairs and go around the corner to the north. The door at the far end leads you into a room with a Nightkin Jailer with an Incinerator. He's tough, but defeating him grants you the [JAIL KEY]. Go through the middle door on the east, go downstairs and unlock the door with the key. Unlock the door on the south as well and inspect the dead prisoner in the east room. You can now go back to Harald to let him know the bad news. He'll make a run for it, and you're free to explore the upper level. Look for [.308 ROUNDS x24 x3] near the burning barrel, and read the third entry on the terminal in the southeast corner regarding five missing Stealth Boys. After having done so, go back to the hallways you came from and immediately turn left (west) when you go up the small stairs. Inside you'll find a strange Nightkin with his Antler who asks you all sorts of questions regarding the Stealth Boy shipment (they sure do like those, huh!?). Explain to him that the Stealth Boys are no longer here and all Nightkin will leave. Enter the room to the west, press the electronical switch to reveal stairs and head down. SPACE SUIT AND ROCKETS? This leads to a sewage tunnel (for some reason, tunnels like these remind me of the first part of Metal Gear Solid's soundtrack, which in turn reminds me of the Depeche Mode song The Things You Said). Anyway, you'll come across a room with a nuclear icon next to it soon, which contains a Reloading Bench. You can experiment with this to break down guns, ammo and scrap metal among other things. To the far south is a room with a Workbench and a [SPACE SUIT] and [SPACE HELMET] in the iron cabinet. The Space Suit and Helmet are not only rare and valuable, the Suit even grants you +40 Rad. Resistance! There's also a [MED-X], [STIMPAK] and [MENTATS] on the desk here. Have a look at the rockets and activate the intercom .. Hmm, something wierd's going on here. In any case, return to Jason with the good news (you can exit by ladder here to the Mojave Wasteland and then make your way through the building, or you can backtrack - whatever you'd like). Report back to Jason and follow him to the basement. Head back into the sewage tunnel and make your way to the rocket overview room to speak with Jason. After everything becomes clear, Chris comes walking in the room. Speak with him to get your next objective. COME, FLY WITH ME Note: As a female, if you have the Black Widow Perk you'll get the option to convince Chris to sabotage the rockets. You'll then need to find three Sugar Bombs and some other components for Chris. You can buy Sugar Bombs at the Dino Bite Gift Shop (for example). First we're going to look for atomic fuel for Chris. Head back to the Mojave

Wasteland by the nearby ladder, then fast travel to Novac. From here, travel west/southwest to find a scavenger in a radiation suit. He holds the [ISOTOPE239 IGNITING AGENT] and the [MR. RADICAL's JOURNAL]. Fast travel back to the REPCONN Test Site and report back to Chris (use the manhole ladder as shortcut). After handing over the component, fast travel to Novac once again and head north/northeast this time. When you reach the Gibson Scrap Yard, enter the Gibson Garage. Old Lady Gibson asks a whopping 500 caps for the thruster control modules, and only a 50+ in Barter or Speech will lower this amount. You can trade some of your items with her to make some cash to pay the caps. Fast travel back to REPCONN and hand Chris the control module. After a short scene, go back to the Research Labs and follow the quest marker to the door leading to the Test Site viewing platform. If you have a Science Skill of 55+ you can fiddle with the Navigation Console. Otherwise, activate the Launch Button to complete this quest, granting you 800 EXP. If this makes you level up, and it most likely will, there are a few perks not recommended. It's probably better to leave the following perks alone: QUICK PERK REVIEW 1. Rapid Reload (cute, but not much more). 2. Retention (sounds good, but remember that you'll usually only need the duration for a short while anyway). 3. Swift Learner (Level 30 is the maximum, and you'll get there anyway, so this only takes up a precious perk spot). 4. Cannibal (hardly useful at all). 5. Lead Belly (cute, but how often are you really irradiated too much?). Remember, it's *your* choice, but here are some favorites: 1. Intense Training: An extra SPECIAL stat never hurts, right? 2. Comprehension: Take this before you start reading skill books, and you'll gain a lot of additional skill points, making it easy to reach a nearly maxed character. 3. Bloody Mess: You deal +5% extra damage with *ALL* weapons. That's a no-brainer (get it?), really. 4. Toughness: In Fallout 3 this gave a whopping of +10 Damage Resistance. Now it only gives +3, although there are now two ranks to it. *MUCH* less useful than in Fallout 3, unfortunately, and almost semi-lame. 5. Gunslinger: Decent to have an accuracy boost, but it's only for one-handed guns, so that limits its usefulness somewhat. Note: As you backtrack through the research lab, you can now - safely - 'steal' the aforementioned RadAway x3, Rad-X x7, and contents of the First Aid Box. You do still lose Karma for doing so.

Boulder City holds another quest for you, though. TfAlLoUt _____________________________________________________________________ QUEST REWARD: 1100 EXP.

 QUEST OUTLINE: 1. (to be continued) _____________________________________________________________________ Find Boulder City to the far northeast of Novac. Look for Lieutenant Monroe who tells you the Khans are in the city. Open the gate (with the yellow sign on it) to enter the Boulder City Ruins. Here, simply head over to the house that the quest marker is pointing at (in southwest direction), and enter this Great Khan Hideout. In here, talk to Jessup and he'll tell you that Benny, the guy you're after, is no longer here. This concludes the 'They Went That-a Way' quest, netting you 1000 EXP! You can either continue with the Boulder City Showdown quest now that you're here anyway, or continue with Ring-a-Ding-Ding. It requires a 45+ Speech skill to convince Jessup, and it takes a 500 caps bribe at Monroe to back away (or less with 45+ Barter), so if you've got what it takes, feel free to do so. An alternative option is to untie the hostages yourself, but the Khans aren't going to like it. This guide will now resume the main quest. Travel northwest, following the Ring-a-Ding-Ding quest marker until you reach Freeside's East Gate. Inside Freeside you can hire a bodyguard, but it's not really necessary. Head through the streets, turn northwest and keep going until you get to a blue bus door on your left (southwest). Head to the far southwest to reach 'The Strip North Gate', guarded by no less than five Security Gatekeepers. To pass you'll either need to pay up 2000 caps, have a Science Skill of 80+, show a valid passport, or destroy all five Security Gatekeepers. Hmm.. Maybe you should start making some money first. ______________________________________________________________________________ FaLlOuTf AlLoUtFa 2.8 G.I.

QUEST OUTLINE: 1. _____________________________________________________________________ LONG LIVE THE KING! Backtrack and go inside the King's School of Impersonation. Pay Pacer 50 caps to speak with the King. Tell him you paid to see him and you can get your money back. Get back to business and he'll tell you to hire a guard named Orris at the northern gate of Freeside. He'll hand you 200 caps to close the deal with Orris. Hire him (as mentioned before, at the northern gate of Freeside) and follow him around. After a while he'll "kill" four thugs. If you have 6 or more Intelligence (and you should), use this option. You can also inspect the thug bodies if you have a 30+ Medicine Skill. Alternatively, a more universal approach would be to just pop a bullet into one of the "corpses" and see what happens. Orris and the four thugs will turn against you, so be prepared for this to happen. His Hunting Revolver is extraordinary powerful, so you may want to move to the far northwest and shoot one of the corpses from afar (and at least save before attempting). Look for

back up near the King's School of Impersonation - Orris usually gets into trouble with the Security Gatekeepers. When the thugs have been taken care of by you and the Kings, loot Orris' body or lure him to the Kings as well. As mentioned, his Hunting Revolver is not only very powerful, but very valuable as well. His Metal Armor isn't too bad either. Return to the King and report. Don't let the question marker fool you; the King's (sometimes) located in his suite on the third floor. THE NCR AND THE KINGS The next task for you is to head to Old Mormon Fort and ask the locals about their assailants. Find Old Mormon Fort northeast/east of Freeside and enter through the large wooden gate. Speak to Roy (and Wayne too, who probably has an IQ of 83), then return to the King with the information. This time, inquire about his dog, Rex, and you can even start a new quest: Nothin' But a Hound Dog. Return to Old Mormon Fort and speak with Julie Farkas about the NCR troops. She tells you to speak with Major Elizabeth Kieran, telling her to mention her name. You can also start yet another new quest at Julie regarding trouble in Freeside: High Hopes. Let's first continue with G.I. Blues. Tip: Head into Fort Mormon through the door in the west corner and look around the bedroom upstairs to find the [SNOWGLOBE - MORMON FORT] in the cabinet, and a {TODAY'S PHYSICIAL} on the desk. Travel around Old Mormon Fort, heading southeast/east, and locate the missionary to the northeast. He's part of the NCR and wants you to take a quiz before telling you the password. The correct answers are: Tandi, Shandy Sands, Bear. With the password, travel down the street northwest, then follow the destroyed highway southwest until you reach the NCR Ruined Store to your left (southeast). Speak with Elizabeth Kieran here to get the information you came for. Return to the King's School of Impersonation and Pacer approaches you, asking (telling) you not to tell the King what you just found out. You can bargain with him and he'll give you 200 caps (what is the amount with 50+ Barter, anyone know?). COMPANION REX Speak with the King anyhow, and inquire about Rex first (if you spoke with Julie about this earlier). Tell him that Rex can be cured, and the King will actually lend you Rex! This gives you a companion similar to Dogmeat in Fallout 3, and arguably cooler! This also grants you the Search and Find perk as long as Rex is a companion: It's more nifty than extremely useful, but when zooming the camera will highlight chems, firearms and ammunition in the surroundings, making them slightly more easy to find. You need to know about Rex that he chases off after rats (and probably after people with hats, too). You can also view Rex as an important expansion of your inventory, as he can carry 240 weight. Do be careful on hardcore mode: If Rex dies, he'll be gone forever. GETTING INTO THE STRIP Also tell the King what Elizabeth told you, then head back to the NCR Store and you'll find Pacer under fire by NCR troops. Speak with Elizabeth nearby the outpost tower to the northwest to defuse the situation and report back to the King. This concludes the G.I. Blues quest. You can now ask the King for a favor: 1. Join the Kings. This makes you one of them, and you're less likely to be attacked around Freeside. 2. Get into the Strip. The King sends you to Mick and Ralphs where you can claim the [COUNTERFEIT PASSPORT], allowing you to access the strip.

3. Money. This gives you 1000 caps. Since you'll want to get into the strip, option two is currently recommended. Of course, you can also pick one of the others but you'll have to figure out a different way to get into the strip. Mick & Ralph's is located in the same area as Mormon Fort, and is located southeast from there (check your local map). Head inside and talk to Ralph, telling him the King sent you regarding a favor he owes you. Ralph will then give you the counterfeit passport. With this in your posession it's finally time to enter the strip. THE STRIP After entering, a security bot tells you to visit Mr. House, which initiate the 'The House Always Wins, I' quest. Let's first continue with the Ring-a-DingDing quest and continue to the Strip. You'll also be able to buy some weapons you can sneak into casino's (such as a silenced pistol(!!) or switchblades). It's a good idea to buy at least a Silenced .22 Pistol if you don't already have one. THE TOPS CASINO Proceed to the next part of the Strip, and enter the The Tops Casino (with the circling flashy lights). Hand over your weapons (not everything, of course), then meet Benny who's in the north area of the casino. There are a few approaches you can now take: 1. Attack Benny (highly unrecommended, you barely stand a chance). 2. Meet him in the VIP suite (you go first). 3. Use the Black Widow Perk to get a hilarious conversation and Benny will lead you to the suite. 4. Use Barter (35+) or Speech (60+) to get Benny to follow you to the suite. The 'Wild Card: Ace In The Hole' quest now also starts. ______________________________________________________________________________ FaLlOuTf AlLoUtFa 2.9 Wild Card: Ace In The Hole [WLK-9] LlOuTfAl _____________________________________________________________________ LoUtFaLl OuTfAlLo You and Benny have a score to settle, and you're finally face to UtFaLlOu face.

It helps if Rex is your companion, otherwise rely on taking cover in one of the other rooms, aiming for

their heads. Loot their bodies for [BENNY'S SUITE KEY], then exit by the elevator. You can also have fun with Benny through the intercom :p. Down in the casino, turn around the southwest corner and follow the quest marker to the elevator leading up to the 13th floor. Go through the double doors and explore Benny's Suite. Inside you'll find the rather helpful bot Yes Man. This eventually concludes the Ring-a-Ding-Ding Quest and Wild Card: Ace In The Hole quest, (netting you 1100 EXP and 110 EXP respectively), and inquiring with Yes Man about all subjects not only gets you tons of information, but also starts various new quests, including: Wild Card: Side Bets, Wild Card: You and What Army?, and How Little We Know.

QUEST OUTLINE: 1. _____________________________________________________________________ Before continuing with the game, look around the room with Yes Man to find a [LOCKSMITH'S READER] lying on one of the machines. The door to the northeast leads to a hall with a locked door leading to the Sub-Basement, so ride the elevator down to the main floor again. Exit the casino. In case you were wondering, there's no need to collect your equipment - they're automatically put back in your inventory when you leave the casino. One of Caesar's men, Vulpes Inculta tells you that Caesar wants to see you. This will automatically start the 'Render Unto Caesar' quest. Additionally, you also receive a note from Ambassador Crocker from the Republic. You're pardonned any crimes against both factions. So... Let's just continue our pursuit of Benny for now. Fast travel to Novac, which is closest to your destination. Travel to the far southeast until you reach a canyon. Head down and travel through the canyon until you finally reach Cottonwood Cove. Speak to Cursor Lucullus who's waiting for you at the dock, and travel to the Fort by boat. THE FORT Go uphill (people are quite unfriendly around here, huh? They keep telling you to go .. "away"... How contradictory). Enter the fort and look around for Caesar's tent, easily spotted by two flags and a luxurious look. Note: Sometimes you're told you cannot enter the tent because you must enter by yourself. This is an annoying bug, especially of your companion (Rex) is still already waiting at the entrance of The Fort. To fix this, go back to your companion and specifically tell them to wait. You can then enter the tent. When speaking to Caesar, responding with "How may I serve your Legion, Caesar?" will increase your fame for Caesar's Legion. Ask what you need to do and he'll hand you [THE PLATINUM CHIP]. Head to the Weather Monitoring Station (and activate the 'Render Unto Caesar' quest), west of Caesar's tent. Inside, place the Platinum Chip in the device and head downstairs into the Securitron Vault.

THE SECURITRON ARMY Here, speak with Mr. House over the screen. He'll ask you to work for him instead. Considering he's very powerful, let's play the game along .. for now, shall we? Might as well get the best out of this complex situation. Equip a radiation suit, or better yet, the space suit, to help protect you from the rad increase (even though it'll say +1 RAD every second, it does actually decrease the amount). Go downstairs and destroy the Protectron, then go through the southern door, leading you to the security room. Be sure to grab the valuable and powerful [PLASMA RIFLE] from the corner, and loot the [GRENADE BOX x2] and [AMMO BOX]. The Average Turret Operation Terminal can deactivate the turrets in this area, and the Hard Protectron Opration Terminal can deactivate, well, Protectrons, although you likely don't have 75+ Science. Do what you can - unfortunately the Sentrybot Terminal is inactive. Head through the door at the end of the hall leading west. Destroy the two Protectrons (and possibly a Mark VI Turret, if you hadn't disabled these) in this hall, then go downstairs, dispatch another Protectron and go through the generator hall, destroying another three to four Protectrons. Inspecting the generotors in the adjacent chambers reveals that these can be destroyed. For now, head west (destroy the Mark VI Turret) and go upstairs (destroying yet two more turrets). It helps to toss Pulse Grenades at turrets and/or groups of Protectrons. You should've gotten some from the Grenade Box earlier on. Select the 'Wild Card: You and What Army?' quest. You must now make a decision. You have two options: 1. Mr. House. If you side with Mr. House, activate the 'The House Always Wins, II' quest in your Pip-Boy 3000 and then activate the Securitron Operations Console in the Security Room (at the red lights). 2. Destroy the three reactors in the adjacent rooms of the generator hall to overload the bunker's reactor. This also activates FOUR Sentry Bots near the exit, which you'll want to quickly run past - you're by far outmatched by these. You'll receive 750 EXP for finishing the 'Wild Card: You And What Army?' quest. Now report back to Mr. House, and then to Caesar, also completing the 'Render Unto Caesar' quest, granting you 500 EXP. After this, deal with Benny. You can either kill him right away, crucify him (at a loss of karma), or face him in the arena (which allows you to loot him from his unique [BENNY'S SUIT] and [MARIA] Silenced 10mm Pistol). You can also pickpocket this pistol from him when he's still tied up, but the suit requires some gladiator efforts. All your equipment is returned to you after killing Benny in the arena. Return to Caesar to receive 100 EXP and the task to kill Mr. House. Fast Travel to The Strip North Gate and from here, go to The Tops Casino to meet up with Yes Man who's waiting right outside. I think it's time to pay a visit to the Lucky 38 Casino. Go inside the Lucky 38 Casino and take the elevator to the Penthouse. Jane, one of the bots around here collects Snow Globes for Mr. House, giving you 2000 caps as a reward a piece! Mr. House can be found in the room to the east. OPTION 1: THE HOUSE ALWAYS WINS

Simply hand the Platinum Chip over to Mr. House. He'll show you what the Platinum Chip does. Now that you know, you've completed the quest (+500 EXP). Next goal is to meet the Boomers as part of 'The House Always Wins, III'. OPTION 2: CHANGE IN MANAGEMENT If you turn against Mr. House, this will turn all security bots hostile. Should you want to pick this option, activate a Stealth Boy, sneak upstairs and wait half a minute or-so. Then, in the room with Mr. House's main screen, use the terminal behind the stairs to your left (northeast) to open the antechamber to the right. Go inside and use the terminal next to the elevator to access the secret chamber with the 261 year-old Mr. House inside. Open his chamber and kill Mr. House. After you've done this, head to Yes Man at the Tops Casino to take over Mr. House's mainframe. Yes Man will then show you what Mr. House intended to do with the Platinum Chip. NOTE: Things get more complicated to describe from now on, due to the various possibilities you have. Soon enough, this guide goes over all possible options, but for now OPTION 1 (MR. HOUSE) will be followed. Regardless of your actions, ride the elevator to the Lucky 38's Presidential Suite and check out the room with the pool table (to the northeast). Search the wooden cabinet in the southeast corner to find a [FUTURE WEAPONS TODAY] skill magazine. In the casino on the ground floor, check out the VIP section to the west - head upstairs - and check behind the bar: The cabinet contains [GOLDEN GLOVES]. Make your way to the northeast side of the map and follow the highway. You'll eventually come across a Field Shack to your left (north). The pickup next to it contains an [AMMO BOX] and Sunset Sarsaparilla Crate, and inside the shack are [AMMO BOX x3]. until you run into a fellow named George. He tells you it'd be unwise to continue, and offers you an alternative for a measly 300 caps (or 50 with 40+ Barter). The only thing he actually does is sell you the 'Nellis Artillery Timing Details', which reads: "The key to avoiding the artillery is to move from building-to-building up the northern side of town toward the front gate. Stick to the high cover in the northeast corner of the two buildings, then make a bee line for the gate. The Boomers won't shoot at their own people, so stick to the fence until you make it to the gate. Also, I know there is an old train tunnel that enters the area from the south, but no one has ever come back out of there to say it is safe." In case you're wondering, the train tunnel has a Very Hard lock, so there's not much for you to do there right now. It says what it says. To elaborate: Do NOT go east or southeast or you will get killed. Look for the higher piece of corner in the northeast corner of the first "house" (it's basically destroyed to the ground). You can stay in this corner until the firing ceases. Then immediately rush over to the next house to the northeast, which is more intact; hop inside and shelter in the northeast corner. When the firing ceases once again, make a break for the fence to the far north. Hug the fence and travel east to the main gate of the Nellis Air Force Base. You're automatically spoken to and brought to Pearl, one of the elders. A new quest will start, Volare!, and by the look of things you can do various other quests as well. While it's possible to kill the Boomers, there's too many

things to do and doing so would be a waste of gameplay. Let's start with the 'Volare!' quest. ______________________________________________________________________________ FaLlOuTf AlLoUtFa 2.11 Volare!

(OPTIONAL) Talk to Jack about getting a rebreather to swim to the bottom of Lake Mead. 10. Return to the shore near the tow winch and use Loyal's detonator to float the B29 to the surface. 11. Let Pearl know your job is done. _____________________________________________________________________ AGRYLL: LET'S PLAY DOCTOR TOGETHER Select this as your active quest and head to the northwest marker, leading you to the Nellis Medical Station. Here, speak with Argyll and ask him what you can mean for him. If you have 40+ Medicine or 35+ Speech you can convince him to help treat the patients. These require 40, 50 and 60 Medicine respectively. If you have a Today's Physician magazine (along with the Comprehension Perk) you can boost your Medicine up to 20 points, possibly recovering all three patients. You get 40, 50 and 60 experience points for helping the patients. PETE: A BOOMING STORY Continue to the Nellis Boomer Museum, marked by the northwest quest marker. Enter the building and look to your right (north): Is that a [SNOW GLOBE NELLIS AFB] lying on the table? Yes it is! There's also an {iLA FANTOMA} magazine on the bed - it's best to grab this while Hidden/Crouched when Pete's asleep. Speaking of Pete, talk to the kid and listen to the story (this will increase your fame with the Boomers). Go over all options, sometimes using Science and Repair to impress - and it'll all increase your fame. You're done here now. LOYAL TO THE BOOMERS: SUNSHINE BOOGIE Find the Boomer named Loyal, usually found inside the Hangar, but also found wandering around the Hangar outside. He'll give you an additional quest, namely, repairing the broken solar array panels. The Nellis Array Panels are easily found, located to the northeast/east of the base. You require either a 65+ Repair skill, or some array parts to fix the panels. If you have the required skill, consider yourself lucky; you get to choose if you'd like to do

the next part. Otherwise, let's get down to business. The parts you're looking for can be found in the Helios One Power Plant, located nearby Gibson Scrap Yard. Fast travel there and approach the place. Lt. Haggerty halts you; talk your way in with 30+ Speech or Science. 25+ Speech to make him hand over 100 caps. He'll also give you the 'That Lucky Old Sun' quest. Also speak with Ignacio Rivas to learn several things about the Brotherhood's and NCR's interests in this location. Exit through the door. Here, look around for five broken solar array panels. This requires 20+ Repair, but I have faith you have at least that amount. Otherwise, well, either boost it some by levelling up or use a skill magazine. There's an array panel to the west, behind a tent that contains [AMMO BOX x2]. The tent to the right contains a [FIRST AID BOX]. There's a second broken array panel nearby, just southeast from the tents, next to the fence. While you're here, inspect Terminal 1 inside the fence, BUT be warned that there are several traps set up - save your game and disarm these first. Resetting the mainframe will complete one of your goals for the 'That Lucky Old Sun' quest. There's a third broken array panel to the north of the area, a fourth to the northeast, and a final fifth nearby the tents on the east side. One of these tents contains an Easy [AMMO BOX]. The fenced area to the southeast is guarded by several violent dogs, but it also houses Terminal 2 on which you need to reset the mainframe on. Waste the doggies and do so. Ignore the 'That Lucky Old Sun' quest for now, because it's a little hard to get past the security in the Solar Collection Tower. Instead, fast travel back to the Nellis AFB and head over to the Nellis Array to the northeast. Fix the five arrays and report back to Loyal in the Nellis Hangars. This concludes the 'Sunshine Boogie' quest, netting you fame at the Boomers, plus 300 EXP. RAQUEL: ANTS MISBEHAVIN' Raquel can often be found on the little outpost south from the hangar, otherwise try the Nellis Woman's Barracks. Ask what's.. bugging her and she'll explain the situation and hand you the [NELLIS GENERATOR KEY]. Go back to Loyal in the hangar first. If you have 50+ Speech or Science he'll give you the [SONIC EMITTER]. Travel to the Nellis Array Generators and go inside the door - follow this quest's marker. Remember, don't use any flamer or laser weapons to prevent the ants from blowing up. In the first room, waste several ants, then loot the dead Boomer. Look for the [MARKSMAN CARBINE] next to him (which doesn't show up while looting the body). In the room to your left (northwest) is another dead Boomer, who holds a Grenade Launcher. You can find an [ASSAULT CARBINE] next to him, which is the assault rifle version compared to the sniper version that the marksman is. Head into the north chamber and go down the catwalk stairway, flipping the first of three power switches at the stairs' intersection. The other two switches are on the ground level - east wall straight ahead. Go northeast and loot the iron cabinets for a load of goodies: [AMMO BOX x2], [MISSILE x2],[MINI NUKE x2], [.308 ROUNDS x24 x4], [5MM ROUNDS x100 x4] and [40MM GRENADE x12 x2]. One of the Mini Nukes is lying on the ground. The double door on the north side and the adjacent tunnel only lead back to the Mojave Wasteland, so you can ignore them for now. Instead, explore the south/southeast part of the ground floor to find [40MM GRENADE x12] and [THUMP-THUMP] next to a skeleton. Thump-Thump is a unique grenade launcher, and quite a decent one at that. Test it elsewhere - this

area is a little too risky with various explosives around, along with the ants. It may be a little difficult to spot, but the large pile of rubbish and sand here (to the south) is the Ant Mound. Place the Sonic Emitter on top of it and activate it to destroy all ants in the building. You've now officially owned this place! Return to Raquel to get your reward: 400 EXP and an increase of fame at the Boomers. VOLARE Back at the 'Volare!' quest, return to Pearl who'll send you running back to Loyal. Jack requires a pressure cooker in order to create the rebreather, or you can tell him how to make one from various ingredients with 45+ Science. Jack will now give you the [REBREATHER], which has the Breathe Underwater ability! You can find a pressure cooker in Field's Shack, which is located to the southwest of Nellis Air Force Base, near the "entrance" of where the bombing continually used to take place. Return to Jack when you've got one. With the rebreather in your posession, travel to the Crashed B-29 airplane to the southwest. Equip your Rebreather (which can be equipped under a hat) and dive into the water, which isn't irradiated. After finding the B-29, attach the ballast under both wings and swim to the northwest shore. Equip Loyal's Detonator and bring the plane back up. Return to Loyal at the Nellis Hangars, and lastly speak with Pearl to end the quest. The Boomers are now loyal to you, giving you the option to have them help at a potential battle at Hoover Dam. You also receive a [BOOMER FLIGHTSUIT] and a [BOOMERS FLIGHTSUIT]. Now that you've won the Boomer's support, go back to Mr. House to tell him so, as part of the quest 'The House Always Wins, III'. You can now continue with part IV of this quest series'. By now, you'll also get the quest notices 'Beware the Wrath of Caesar' and 'Don't Tread on the Bear!', respectively showing how annoyed Caesar and the NCR are at your involvement with Mr. House. The next few sections involve the quest 'How Little We Know'. HOW LITTLE WE KNOW Enter Gomorrah across the street, and speak with the Secretary to learn more about this place. Ask around about Cachino and people will tell you to get out of there face. Asking around several times makes Cachino show up. He's a dick, so don't expect a high-level conversation. You can get the key to his place by buying it from the Secretary (or you can threaten her if you have 8+ STR, or use Barter if you have 55+). It costs 300 caps. Ride one of the elevators on the northwest part of the hall and go to the suites. Cachino's room is located to the northeast; make sure the guard is walking in the other direction to sneak in unseen. Go upstairs and explore the bedroom. You can find a {MILSURP REVIEW} next to the closet on the southeast. Check the desk in the east corner of the room to find {CACHINO'S JOURNAL} inside. Alternatively you can attempt to pickpocket Chachino himself for this journal, but I wouldn't recommend doing this. Read the journal in your Pip-Boy's Misc section, then return to Cachino and confront him with what you know. He's often sitting in the back (northwest) of the brimstone section of the casino. Roughly speaking, you now have two options: 1. Give Cachino back the journal (60 Barter nets you 200 caps, otherwise you get 100 caps) and then follow his instructions.

2. Don't give Cachino his journal. Instead, take this thing to his bosses. Let's try the latter first. Speak with the Omerta Thug in the NE corner of the room and tell him you've got business with his bosses - show him the proof. You'll get the [ZOARA CLUB KEY] from him, so enter through the door. Head upstairs and head into the hall southeast from the pool tables. Find Big Sal (often) sitting on the left, just the guy you wanted to talk to. Otherwise look around for Nero. In any case, show them the journal for either 100 caps or (55 Barter) 200 caps. Follow Big Sal/Nero in their office and watch the event. Now get down to business. Ask him what the big thing is they have going on, and be on your way. Head through the south halls, going downstairs on the right. In the Gomorrah Lower Lobby, find Troike, one of this quest's main figures. He asks you to retrieve a stolen shipment of weapon parts from a group of Fiends. These can be found southwest of the strip - follow the quest marker. There are three of them, so dispatch them and retrieve the Disassembled Weapon Shipment (which has a value of nearly 5000 caps!). Give it back to Troike, then go look for Clanden who can be found by riding the express elevator to the suites. Find Clanden and ask him what he needs. To give him the Ralph. You can have 60 Speech. Unlock the door case, return to chlorine, head to outer freeside and head over to Mick and buy the chlorine from Ralph, or even get it for free if you Alternatively you can get some from the Ultra-Luxe Casino's. to the storage room stealthly and fetch the chlorine. In either Clanden to wrap things up.

When you've done so, return to the big boss, Big Sal or Nero, and tell them you've finished your work. You're then rewarded with 400 caps, 300 experience, but your infamy on The Strip also rises. ______________________________________________________________________________ FaLlOuTf AlLoUtFa 2.12 The House Always Wins, V [WLK-12] LlOuTfAl _____________________________________________________________________ LoUtFaLl OuTfAlLo The Brotherhood of Steel poses a serious threat to Mr. House and UtFaLlOu his plans.

This quest requires you to destroy the Brotherhood of Steel, so it's advisable to first conclude any business you have with the BoS before continuing down this line with the Main Quest. Check your worldmap and locate the Hidden Valley. Enter the bunker and go downstairs. Soon after entering the chamber with large containers, a squad of three BoS troops tells you to hand over all your equipment and to come along. You can ignore them and go on a killing spree, but it's not an advisable option and arguably less fun. Hand over your weapons. Head downstairs to meet Paladin Ramos. Agree to see Elder McNamara and speak with him. You're not immediately trusted, so you'll need to do a quest first.

Agree to deal with the Ranger and the "Still in the Dark" side quest begins. You're being fitted an Explosive Collar to ensure you're enslaved and won't run off too far away from the bunker. Collect your stuff from the crate to your right before continuing. STILL IN THE DARK To deal with the Ranger named Dobson, head southwest and follow your quest marker. During daytime he'll be on patrol; during nighttime he can be found in his bunker. Speak with him and tell him you're not a Powder Ganger. Be sure you don't mention anything about the BoS, or you'll automatically fail this quest and you're tracked down by the BoS afterwards. You have several options to get Dobson moving from the BoS territory. Let's go over them one by one: 1. [50 Speech]: Tell him Powder Gangers use the bunkers and he'll be on his way. 2. Inside Dobson's bunker, smash his radio when he's away on patrol (wait several hours for him to leave). This will scare him enough to go away. 3. Alternatively, touching his radio several times will aggro him, resulting in having to kill him. You'll also kill him by rigging the radio, and of course killing him yourself is a last option you have. Still, option 1 or 2 are preferable. While you're in Dobson's bunker, be sure to grab the [.308 ROUNDS x3] from the cabinet to the southwest. It also contains [PURIFIED WATER x4]. Return to the Brotherhood of Steel and tell Elder McNamura that you've dealt with Dobson the Ranger. You can now either continue with BoS business, or continue with Mr. House's goal of destroying the BoS. This section will lead you to the destruction of the BoS, so make sure you've done all other business here. DESTROYING THE BOS Essentially, the only thing you need to do is wipe out the entire BoS bunker. The easiest way to do this is by blowing up the bunker, which in turn requires three keys. Head to Bunker L2 by making a full round circle in the hallway below. 1. Head Paladin's Keycard (from Head Paladin Hardin, found in either his room east of McNamara's command room, or nearby the entrance of bunker L2. 2. Head Scribe's Keycard (from Head Scribe Taggart, found either in his bed or in the VR room located in the southern L2 section). 3. Elder Keycard (from Elder McNamara, found usually in his command room, and possibly in his bed. If found in the control room, use a Stealth Boy to steal this keycard). When in possession of all three keycards, head to the VR chamber in the L2 bunker (southern area). Use the terminal on the western wall to get an access code, which you can then use at the red terminal on this same wall to blow up the bunker. Doing this turns all BoS members immediately hostile, so it's good to still have the Stealth Boy active. It can also greatly help to pop a Med-X and, if you have it, and Atomic Cocktail to greatly reduce damage income. Rush out of bunker L2, then out of bunker L1 using your local map for guidance. With the bunker destroyed, return to Mr. House for further instructions, and to conclude this main quest. ______________________________________________________________________________ FaLlOuTf

2.13 The House Always Wins, VI [WLK-13] _____________________________________________________________________ President Kimball is doing a speech at Hoover Dam, and Mr. House wants you to protect him; if you're in the position to do so. _____________________________________________________________________ QUEST REWARD: QUEST OUTLINE: 1. _____________________________________________________________________

Note: This quest will automatically fail if you aren't at the very least "Accepted" by the NCR. If you aren't, you're automatically given the next quest (part VII) and the president dies as well. Essentially, this quest requires you to do the other Main Quest "You'll Know It When It Happens". Either save the president or let him die and return to Mr. House to proceed with the story. ______________________________________________________________________________ FaLlOuTf AlLoUtFa 2.14 The House Always Wins, VII [WLK-14] LlOuTfAl _____________________________________________________________________ LoUtFaLl OuTfAlLo You still need to boost the Lucky 38's transmission signal to allow UtFaLlOu for control of the Securitrons at Hoover Dam.

Travel to the El Dorado Substation or somewhere closeby, and enter the garage. There are a few ways in which you can do this: 1. Equip an NCR Uniform and enter with ease. If you don't have an NCR Armor you can attempt to lure one of the NCR troops towards you (preferably one of the troops that comes running towards you when you first walk up to the garage). You can then stealthly kill him/her (which works best if they're far away from their mates, if you use a Stealth Boy and a silenced weapon aiming for their head, finishing them off in VATS. 2. Kill the NCR troops. 3. Sneak in (with a Stealth Boy) without being seen. Inside the garage, locate the terminal and use the Override Chip. Return to Mr. House and inform him of the good news. This also starts part VIII of this quest, which is shortlived - you only need to accept your final mission and it will conclude. Do realize that accepting this mission will inevitably finish the game; there is no turning back from here. ______________________________________________________________________________ FaLlOuTf AlLoUtFa 2.15 All Or Nothing [WLK-15] LlOuTfAl _____________________________________________________________________ LoUtFaLl OuTfAlLo This is it; the final battle.

TfAlLoUt _____________________________________________________________________ QUEST REWARD: QUEST OUTLINE: 1. _____________________________________________________________________ Depending on which sidequests you did earlier, the following things can happen: 1. If you made a deal between the NCR and the Great Khans, they'll fight along your side. Otherwise, they might just turn up as a hostile group, but they are greatly outnumbered in any case. 2. If you helped the Boomers, you'll soon enough spot Loyal's airplane which drops bombs on the Legion's troops. 3. If you're hostile with the NCR, you'll have to fight them too. Otherwise, they'll help you with your assault. Head for the Hoover Dam Tower to the northeast, battling any hostiles along the way. Inside, ride the elevator. Search for the control room to the northeast, guarded by heavily armed NCR troops you'll need to dispatch before or after entering (or if you have 75+ Speech, convince them to head elsewhere), and access the large terminal here, using the Override Chip. Head to the southeast area of the complex, dealing with NCR and Caesar's troops as you make your way to the switch you manually need to flip. Open the door, check the right of the balcony and flip it. Head to the north/northeast area to exit the tower. Back outside, proceed over the dam and let the Securitrons handle the Legion Centurions as you eventually traverse southeast, uphill, towards the Legate Camp. Inside, dispatch several Praetorian Guards and head up the steps on the far end of the camp. Here you'll meet who you could call the final boss of the game in this scenario: Legate Lanius. You have a whole lot of options in the dialogue, but ultimately you'll need 100 Speech or Barter to successfully make him retreat. LEGATE LANIUS Alternatively, and ultimately if you don't have a very high Speech and/or Barter skill, you'll have to fight Legate Lanius. He's a tough, speedy behemoth with a huge amount of health and plenty of supporting Legion troops. 1. Attempt to keep your distance and target Legate's legs to slow him down if you can manage to cripple one of his legs. 2. Armor piercing ammunition will help tremendously in this fight as it'll at least help you damage Legate more than you normally would. 3. Use Med-X, Psycho, and keep your health high with healing items and stimpaks at all times. 4. Dispatch several Legion troops whenever you feel there are too many around you, and keep moving around to avoid getting cornered. After finally defeating Legate, head back to the gate and general Lee Oliver of the NCR shows up. You have several options now: 1. Kill the general and his troops (by ordering the Securitrons to do so). 2. Attempt a more friendly approach by saying you were hoping both sides could be pleasant about this. The next speech challenge(s) require 100 Speech, but you can get him to leave by succeeding. Mr. House then moves towards you as a Securitron and tells you that you've been

a fabulous right hand, arguably the best he's ever had.

In this area you will find some trailers and Great Khans' by the names of Jack and Diane. Diane needs help tracking down her delivery boy Anders, accept her quest and if your Barter skill is at 50 or higher you can convince Diane to sell to the citizens of Mojave and gain some Karma. Fast Travel to the Cottonwood Cove or Sniper's Nest, if you have either, at the southern part of the map. From here follow the quest marker to find Anders on a crucifix. You can either cut him down and he'll head back to Red Rock Canyon or you can leave him up there for the Legion. If you return after you cut down Anders then Diane will offer you [250 BOTTLE CAPS] or the [TURBO RECIPE], either choice nets you Great Khan Fame. Remind Diane of the work she previously promised to continue the quest and receive the [MILDLY SUSPICIOUS PACKAGE]. Now that you are Anders replacement head over to the Hostetler's house located south of the New Vegas Medical Clinic. Check the end table between the sofas for a [SUNSET SARSAPARILLA STAR BOTTLE CAP] and then the kitchen if you need any random assortment of foods or drinks. Mr. Hostetler can be found in his room, simply drop off the package and rendezvous back with Diane for the reward of [150 CAPS]. Ask for more work to be given a task of delivering drugs to Vault 3 nearby. As you make your way closer to the vault door you will notice more and more Fiends, be wary as they will attack on sight. Upon entering Vault 3 you will questioned as to your intentions, with Speech 64 or higher you can pass a check or else you have to fight your way through. Head through the middle door and to the right to spot a Very Easy door to pick. In this closet area you can find a few [STIMPAKS], leave the closet and enter the dining area across from it. On a table in the southern end you can find a [JET] and [PSYCHO x2]. Pick the ___ ___ ___ _ _ _ _ _ _

Easy door nearby and check the [FIRST AID BOX] for a [RAD-X] and [STIMPAK x5]. In the next room over you can find numerous [PURIFIED WATER] and a few [NUKACOLA]. Return to vault entrance and go left at the split this time. You'll find a door with an Easy lockpick, pick it and enter. Check the [FIRST AID BOX] on the table to find [PURIFIED WATER] and [STIMPAK x5]. On the shelf opposite this is a [FIXIN' THINGS] magazine. Leave and continue around to a Hard lockpick door and enter this room. The [FIRST AID BOX] on the computer desk has a [RAD-X] and [STIMPAK x4], you can also snag the [TODAY'S PHYSICIAN] sitting on the same desk. Opposite the desk you can find [RADAWAY x3], [FIXER x2], and a [DOCTOR'S BAG]. Visit the bathroom across the hall and open the [FIRST AID BOX] (Very Easy lockpick) to find more [RAD-X], [RADAWAY], [STIMPAK x4], and [DOCTOR'S BAG x2]. Leave this room and continue north to the game room, head upstairs to find an ammunition box containing [ENERGY CELL x30]. Hop down and check the vending machines for [SUNSET SARSAPARILLA x3] and [NUKA-COLA x3]. Head up the other set of stairs to find [MENTATS], [JET], and [MED-X] on the pool table. Drop back down and open a nearby Very Easy lockpick door to find a [NUKA-COLA VICTORY] and [NUKA-COLA QUARTZ] in a carton on the back shelf. In the western teaching classroom you can find a [DOCTOR'S BAG] and three ammunition cases with [MISSILE x4] and a nearby [10MM PISTOL]; there is a [JET] on the projector stand. Leave the game room and head north to reach the Maintenance section. The door to the right is an Average lockpick door, open it and check the cabinets for [VAULT 3 UTILITY JUMPSUIT x2] which add 5 skill points to Repair and Lockpick. Make your way around to Motor-Runner via the north door. Talk with him and pass a Speech 25 challenge to gain [25 EXPERIENCE POINTS]. Give him the delivery and check the lockers for a [REVERSE PULSE CLEANER] and a [5.56MM ROUNDS x22]. As you leave don't head out, instead continue straight to find an Average lockpick door. The Filing Cabinet inside holds [20 GAUGE ROUND x3] and [9MM ROUND x14]. Grab the [FIXIN' THINGS] on the shelf next to the Tool Cabinets then be on your way back to Diane. You'll receive [300 CAPS] and Great Khans Fame as your reward; to finish this quest you need to teach Jack a few things. With a Science skill of 50+ and Survival skill of 75+ you can teach Jack all the stuff he can learn. Each time you teach him a new skill you will earn [50 EXPERIENCE POINTS] and have the option of being rewarded with [50 CAPS] or some random chems. After teaching him three skills you will finish the quest and be rewarded [300 EXPERIENCE POINTS] as well as the [KHAN TRICK] perk. ______________________________________________________________________________ FaLlOuTf AlLoUtFa 3.2 Ant Misbehavin' [SDQ-3] LlOuTfAl _____________________________________________________________________ LoUtFaLl OuTfAlLo Sonic Emitter functions like a magnifying glass, pop goes the ant.

(Optional) Place Loyal's sonic generator on the ant mount.

(Optional) Activate the sonic emitter. 3. Return to Raquel and let her know the generators are running again. _____________________________________________________________________ To get this quest you must have first reached Nellis Air Force Base and started the quest Volare! by speaking with Mother Pearl. Track down Raquel either in the Barracks or outside patrolling and ask her about what's been "bugging" her. She will fork over the [NELLIS GENERATOR KEY]. Now go visit Loyal to the north in the Hangar. Complete a Speech or Science challenge (you need a skill of 50 or higher) to receive the [SONIC EMITTER] from Loyal. Leave the Hangar and go east acrossed the tarmac to reach the Nellis Array Generators (follow this quest's marker). Remember, don't use any flamer or laser weapons to prevent the ants from blowing up. In the first room, waste several ants, then loot the dead Boomer. Look for the [MARKSMAN CARBINE] next to him (which doesn't show up while looting the body). In the room to your left (northwest) is another dead Boomer, who holds a Grenade Launcher. You can find an [ASSAULT CARBINE] next to him, which is the assault rifle version compared to the sniper version that the marksman is. Head into the north chamber and go down the catwalk stairway, flipping the first of three power switches at the stairs' intersection. The other two switches are on the ground level - east wall straight ahead. Go northeast and loot the iron cabinets for a load of goodies: [AMMO BOX x2], [MISSILE x2],[MINI NUKE x2], [.308 ROUNDS x24 x4], [5MM ROUNDS x100 x4] and [40MM GRENADE x12 x2]. One of the Mini Nukes is lying on the ground. The double door on the north side and the adjacent tunnel only lead back to the Mojave Wasteland, so you can ignore them for now. Instead, explore the south/southeast part of the ground floor to find [40MM GRENADE x12] and [THUMP-THUMP] next to a skeleton. Thump-Thump is a unique grenade launcher, and quite a decent one at that. Test it elsewhere - this area is a little too risky with various explosives around, along with the ants. It may be a little difficult to spot, but the large pile of rubbish and sand here (to the south) is the Ant Mound. Place the Sonic Emitter on top of it and activate it to destroy all ants in the building. You've now officially owned this place! Return to Raquel to get your reward: 400 EXP and an increase of fame at the Boomers. ______________________________________________________________________________ FaLlOuTf AlLoUtFa 3.3 Anywhere I Wander [SDQ-3] LlOuTfAl _____________________________________________________________________ LoUtFaLl OuTfAlLo The quest name is also the name of a song written by Frank Loesser.

areas you can find Private Renolds who tells you he was ambushed by the Legion. Question if the men are still alive to open up a Barter challenge (45+ skill) for [100 CAPS]. Head to the Techatticup Mine nearby along the road. Make your way down the path and turn south when you get the chance along the loop. At the southern tip of the loop is a locked gate (Average). Inside the cubby are some ammunition boxes with [5MM ROUND x71] and [5.56MM ROUND x13]. On the shelf you can find [SUPER STIMPAK x2], [DOCTOR's BAG], and [BOXING TIMES] magazine. If you continue north you will spot another locked gate (Average). In this cubby are four ammunition boxes holding [5.56MM ROUND x17], [5.56MM ROUND x18], [10MM ROUND x12], and [12 GAUGE ROUND x4]. On the boxes you can find [FRAG GRENADE x4], [FRAG MINE x2], and a [BRASS KNUCKLES]. In the back on the shelves you can grab an [EXPLORER HOOD] and [LEGION RECRUIT ARMOR]. North from here you can find Alexus, the leader of this little gang. You can pickpocket or kill Alexus to obtain the Techatticup Storage Key (based on your reputation with the Legion). Head back around the loop and go north to find the two cages where the NCR members are being held. Battle is inevitable if you want to complete this quest. Freeing one of the soldiers will cause the Legion to pummel him to death so you need to clear a path. Behind the cage on the left you can loot [DIRTY WATER x3], [LEGION EXPLORER ARMOR], a [MACHETE], [LAD'S LIFE], and [PATRIOT'S COOKBOOK]. Untie the NCR Trooper and set him free so long as you can cleared a path for him. In the other cell you can find [SCRAP METAL x2], a [DOCTOR'S BAG], two ammunition boxes holding [.306 ROUND x6] and [5.56MM ROUND x16], and a [STIMPAK].

Milo will come out and ask who are, a Speech of 25 will suffice for some bonus experience but it doesn't ring a bell. Tell Milo you will help with hostages and check the footlocker for [C-4 PLASTIC EXPLOSIVE x2] and a [DETONATOR]. You can storm in and kill everyone as one option, Dead Sea will drop a Unique Weapon, the [LIBERATOR]. It's highly unlikely that you can storm in and kill everyone not to mention this will tank any reputation you have with the Legion. You can always simply sneak in and use the C-4 like you were told or optionally with an accurate Sniper Rifle pick off the hostages at range. If you have Boone and a bad reputation with the Legion you might consider clearing the town of Nelson out and rescuing the hostages for bonus reputation with Boone. Regardless of how you do it you will receive [150 EXPERIENCE POINTS] and NCR Fame pending you succeed. ______________________________________________________________________________ FaLlOuTf

Head to the southeast corner and enter the Ultra-Luxe Casino. Around the bar located Heck Gunderson and speak with him. After some conversation ask him if you can help locate his son to begin the quest. You can follow either path you want, or both, until the Kitchen scene. At the Kitchen you must choose to ally or expose the White Glove Society for what they are trying to become. Ally with the White Glove Society Head to the back of the floor and turn the corner to enter the Gourmand area of the hotel. Talk to Marjorie to get what you can out of her then leave. Head to the receptionist desk and speak with Mortimer. Mention the Society's old ways of cannibalism to spark a Speech 62+ challenge to get him to spill some information. If you can't pass the check return to Marjorie and question the Society's penchant for human flesh. Return to Mortimer after that and ask about the craving once more.

The Investigator is dead, loot him for the [MATCHBOOK] and get ready to defend yourself from two White Gloves. Check the back of the matchbook to get the message to meet at the steam room at 4 PM. Head to the Steam Room and wait until approximately 4 PM to meet Chauncey.

There are several ways to enter the kitchen; if your The Strip Fame is high enough you can have Marjorie or Mortimer sponsor you, if your Fame on The Strip isn't Liked or higher than you can switch sides or raise your Fame high enough. If you want to stay on the exposure path then you can always pickpocket Mortimer for the [ULTRA-LUXE KITCHEN KEY] or use lockpicking (50+ to open the door) to force your way in. The Kitchen In the kitchen you have a lot of options regardless of which side you have followed thus far. Head down stairs to be confronted by a White Glove. You can tell him Mortimer sent you (requires 50+ Speech if you are exposing) or you can lie about a burst water pipe (Repair 35+). Don't tell him you're just passing through or you get busted. Head down the hall to the fourth door on the right to meet Phillipe the chef. Ally with the White Glove Society Part 2 Make your way into the freezer with the key Mortimer gives you to find Ted.

Red Lucy is typically standing on a platform near the center of the Thorn, she desperately needs newborn specimens to fight. Tell her you will help and she will give you her first task of a dozen Giant Mantis' Eggs. Take her advice and go to Vault 22 where you will find plenty of Giant Mantis'

waiting for you. If you fix the elevator (Repair Skill 50+) then you can ride down to the Pest Control level, else you have to make your way down through the various other floors. Once you reach this level hook a left from the elevator and head up the steps to enter the lab. Head through the nearby door to reach the Food Production section. Go straight at the junction and turn the corner dispatching the Giant Mantis'. Loot the [PILE OF GIANT MANTIS EGGS] and be on your way back to Red Lucy. With a Barter Skill of 50+ you can convince Red Lucy to pay you [300 CAPS] instead of 200 and you gain [100 EXPERIENCE POINTS]. Ask if you can still help to be sent on a mission for Radscorpion Eggs. Fast Travel to the Goodspring Cemetery and go from there to find Giant Radscorpions lurking about. Run in and take out what you can then snag the [PILE OF RADSCORPION EGGS] and return to Red Lucy. She hands over a [HUNTING RIFLE] and [300 CAPS] but you can convince her to give you [400 CAPS] with Barter Skill 60+; you receive [150 EXPERIENCE POINTS]. Next up is Fire Gecko eggs which can found in the Bootjack Cavern near Lucky Jim Mine. Once you get here keep your distance and take out the Fire Geckos. At the end of the cave you will find the [PILE OF FIRE GECKO EGGS], grab them and return to the Thorn once more. You receive [200 EXPERIENCE POINTS] for this mission as well as [500 CAPS], Barter (Skill 70+) to receive [700 CAPS] instead. The mayhem continues as you are told to acquire a few Night Stalker eggs. The easiest way to enter the cave is from Bitter Springs. A Legendary Night Stalker sits near the nest with approximately seven other Night Stalkers. If you don't have the firepower for this one then use a Stealth Boy to reach the [PILE OF NIGHT STALKER EGGS]. Back at the Thorn Red Lucy yields [300 EXPERIENCE POINTS], a [HUNTING REVOLVER], and [700 CAPS]. A Barter Skill of 80+ will net you [1000 CAPS] instead. Once again you are set out to find eggs, this time from the Cazador. Pick a location nearest this one, maybe something like Jacobstown or Ranger Station Foxtrot, and head on over. Nearly a dozen Cazador and Young Cazador swarm the area, be careful and take them out. The Super Mutant lying dead holds a [FATMAN] so be sure to loot it along with the [PILE OF CAZADOR EGGS]. [400 EXPERIENCE POINTS] and either [1000 CAPS] or [1500 CAPS] (Barter Skill 90+) later Red Lucy gives up the mother of all hunts. Deathclaw eggs are the finale and you can go to one of two locations, the easier path being the pit near the Quarry Junction. Unless you are completely positive you can defeat the Deathclaw simply use a few Stealth Boys and grab the [PILE OF DEATHCLAW EGGS] and high tail it out of there. Your reward this time is [500 EXPERIENCE POINTS], [2500 CAPS], and a modded out [HUNTING SHOTGUN]. You can talk to Red Lucy to get a personal invitation into her bedroom for some after hours training once all missions are complete. ______________________________________________________________________________ FaLlOuTf AlLoUtFa 3.9 Booted [SDQ-9] LlOuTfAl _____________________________________________________________________ LoUtFaLl OuTfAlLo Booted is also a reference to getting high, much like Boxcar does.

You can resolve the hostage situation a number of ways to include negotiation, sneaking in and rescuing the hostages, or murder the NCR and free the captors. If you go the negotiation route then head inside and speak with Jessup. Here you can either pass a Speech check (skill 45+) or pay 500 Caps for the freeing of the hostages. The Speech check results in a NCR and Great Khan Fame while simply cooperating only nets Great Khan Fame. If you sneak in try going at night so you are less visible. Sneak around the backside of the building and pick the locked door. Quickly free the hostages and make a dash for the entrance using the NCR as supporting fire if needed. If you locate them but can't reach them then you can tell Monroe where they are and go from there. All routes lead to NCR Fame during this path. Lastly, if you decide to help the Great Khans then kill all the NCR to include Lieutenant Monroe and tell Jessup you cleared a path for them. This results in NCR Infamy, Great Khan Fame, and positive Karma.

She spoke about rumors of a sinister Omertas' operation. _____________________________________________________________________ Start this quest by heading to The Strip and finding Carlitos, in Vault 21 near the Diner, or Joana, in the Courtyard of the Gomorrah. To start with Carlitos you'll need Speech 50 or Strength 7 to get the information out of him, for Joana it will take Medicine 50 or Speech 75 to find out what her deal is. Speaking with Joana first will lead you back to Carlitos who ultimately comes up with a plan to sneak Joana out of the Gomorrah and meet him in Freeside. To convince Joana to leave you need a Speech 40, once she agrees you have the option of getting some backup before getting her out. If you chose to get the additional help head to Freeside and enter the Atomic Wrangler where you will find Big Beard and Little Beard. Tell them to be in Freeside waiting for you and return to Joana. Once you are ready let Joana know and she will begin moving the Gomorrah Lobby. Head on down there and wait near the Disguised Hookers and speak with Joana once she arrives to get out of the building. Follow the crew until they dash to Freeside, then continue on down the street where you run into Carlitos. Unfortunately, some Omerta Thugs are also there waiting and you have to kill them if you can't pass the harsh Speech 85, Barter 85 (plus 500 Caps), or Strength 9 challenges.

Tell him that the people at Camp Bitter aren't responsible (Speech 50+) and to let go of his rage to join the Khans at Red Rock Canyon. Otherwise, tell him to attack Camp McCarran. If your Speech isn't high enough then you are forced to kill Oscar in order to get the [GREAT KHANS SUPPLY CACHE KEY]. Check near the campfire in the ammunition boxes for [.308 ROUND x10]. Inside the cage you will find [12 GAUGE ROUND x3], [SCRAP METAL], and various chems. There is [.308 ROUND x24] also on the shelf and the [GREAT KHAN SUPPLY CACHE] at the top.

When doing the main quest They Went That-A-Way, Manny Vargas in Novac will request your aid on a certain matter concerning Ghouls. Accept his request and make your way to the REPCONN Test Site due west of Novac. Beware the Ghouls that lurk along the roadside as you make your way there. Upon entering the building a voice on the intercom directs you to find Jason. Follow the quest marker to eventually go up a catwalk leading to a locked door with an intercom nearby. Use the intercom to gain access to the REPCONN Research Labs. Once through you are greeted by Chris Haversam, a deranged scientist who believes he is one of "them." Inquire about the "demons" to discover Nightkin have been lurking around and releasing Feral Ghouls into the wild, you gain the [REPCONN BASEMENT KEY]. With access to the basement you can handle this quest in several ways. You can simply destroy all the Nightkin or speak with their leader in these parts, Davison, and have him leave. There is also an option of speaking with Harland, a Sniper Ghoul, and finding his friend. Speak with Davison and agree to find the stash of Stealth Boys to receive [DAVISON'S KEY]. From here head to the nearby door at the southern end of the corridor to meet Harland. Accept his request to find his lost captive friend. From here you must navigate to a control room and find the Nightkin Jailer. Kill him or pickpocket him to get the [JAIL KEY] then open the cells to find a corpse of Harland's Ghoul-friend. Return to Harland and tell him the bad news then head up the steps where he was standing to find a computer terminal. Read the entries to find out that the Stealth Boy shipment was relocated and receive the [NOTE: STEALTH BOU SHIPMENT UPDATE]. Take this to Davison and he evacuates with the Nightkin. However you clear up the situation in the basement, return to Jason Bright and inform him of the good news. Follow him into the basement to find out what you need to do next. Speak with Chris Haversam to find out how to send the rocket into space or inform him of Jason's plan to leave him behind (Speech 50). It is optional to blow up the rocket and it only requires three Sugar Bombs. Head over to the Gibson Scrapyard north of Novac and talk to Old Lady Gibson. She will sell you the Thrust Control Modules for 500 Caps or you with a Barter skill of 50 or Speech skill of 50 reduce the payment to 250 Caps. You could always steal

it or kill her and take it, but that's just mean. Pick your means of acquisition to obtain the [THRUST CONTROL MODULES]. After acquiring the first piece head to Clark Field as she suggests and search for the body in a RAD suit. Loot the [ISOTOPE-239 IGNITING AGENT] and [MR. RADICAL'S JOURNAL]. If that isn't a viable method then you need to find [ROCKET SOUVENIRS] around the world. The easiest way to get your hands on these is Cliff Briscoe, the Dino Bite Gift Shop owner in Novac. You can acquire the [STORAGE KEY] several ways to include pickpocketing or buying it from him, or likewise pick the lock yourself. Inside you can find several hundred of the collectables which is more than enough for Chris. Return to Chris Haversam with the parts to start the launch. Go up to the viewing platform, accessed in the area where you first met Jason Bright. Use the control panel nearby to start the launch sequence and complete the quest. You receive [800 EXPERIENCE POINTS] (an additional 200 if you upgrade the trajectory of the rocket) and Novac Fame. Return to Manny and let him know you took care of the ghouls and continue the main quest. ______________________________________________________________________________ FaLlOuTf AlLoUtFa 3.17 Crazy, Crazy, Crazy [SDQ-17] LlOuTfAl _____________________________________________________________________ LoUtFaLl OuTfAlLo But we're never gonna survive unless we get a little crazy. UtFaLlOu TfAlLoUt _____________________________________________________________________ QUEST REWARD: Tabitha's Trunk Items, Follower: Raul QUEST OUTLINE: 1. Head to the summit of Black Mountain and end Tabitha's reign of terror. (Optional) Meet Neil in the village near the summit of Black Mountain. _____________________________________________________________________ During your travels across the wasteland you can tune into the Black Mountain Radio to hear Tabitha and her terrifying broadcasts. Make your way northeast from Sloan (by far the safest route of approach) along the road and take the road right as it splits. This leads you to Neil's Shack where Neil, a Super Mutant, approaches you. Put your gun down and listen to his words about what awaits on Black Mountain. A Speech 50 challenge lets you gain more incite and has Neil meet you in the village near the peak. There are essentially two ways to reach the peak now, one is to follow the road where Nightkin and Super Mutants have blockades set up and will ambush you from all around. The other route is to head left from Neil's Shack and peel off into the gravel path past the second blockade. You will encounter a Lockpick 75 gate on this path so be sure you can open it. If you followed the road you will arrive at the village Neil told you about. If Neil is here use him to draw out the Nightkin leaving you with only a sniper to take care of. This method is preferred because the Nightkin become visible and are increasingly easier to take down now. Head over to the satelite dish that is flipped over and check the locked trunks for roughly [400 CAPS] and a [MINIGUN]. Nearby is a transceiver that you can use to contact Tabitha, a Speech 75 challenge gets you experience points but either option causes Nightkin to scramble down un-stealthed toward your location, much preferred. As you approach Tabitha's camp beward the Nightkin with a Missle Launcher that will snipe you down. Once you have cleared out all the Nightkin you are ready to end Tabitha's lunatic broadcasts. There are three ways to settle this now, one way is to enter the middle building and fix Rhonda, a Mister Handy-style robot,

with a Repair 50 challenge. Take Rhonda to Tabitha just outside to end the quest and receive [TABITHA's EQUIPMENT KEY]. You can also enter the Broadcast Building, 1st Floor and exit out the other end to find [TABITHA's ROOM KEY]. Ascend the steps to the second floor and kill Tabitha to get her equipment key this way and end the quest. The final option is to enter the Prison Building and search the terminals for the six logs to get [NOTE: BLACK MOUNTAIN PASSWORD] for the other terminal. Disengage the lock and speak with Raul Alfonso Tejada, a Ghoul from Mexico City. As you exit the building Tabitha meets you, kill her and return to Raul. However you go about finishing the quest be sure to empty out the five trunks that Tabitha has locked away since you have the key. You can always have Raul become a follower simply by asking him regardless if you freed him to do the quest or not. ______________________________________________________________________________ FaLlOuTf AlLoUtFa 3.18 Cry Me a River [SDQ-18] LlOuTfAl _____________________________________________________________________ LoUtFaLl OuTfAlLo If you hit me baby one more time, I'll make you cry a river.

Talk to the Followers of the Apocalypse about letting Jerry the Punk join their order. 2. Tell Jerry the Followers will accept him as a novice. _____________________________________________________________________ Head to Red Rock Canyon and speak with Jerry the Punk, usually found in the middle of the area. After some conversing and a Speech 33 challenge you can tell Jerry that he'd be much happier somewhere else. Now head over to Freeside and enter the Old Mormon Fort to find Julie Farkas. Tell her about Jerry and she agrees to take him in regardless of the circumstances. Return to Jerry with the good news and he leaves completing the quest. You receive [350 EXPERIENCE POINTS] for running back and forth. ______________________________________________________________________________ FaLlOuTf AlLoUtFa 3.19 Debt Collector [SDQ-19] LlOuTfAl _____________________________________________________________________ LoUtFaLl OuTfAlLo If you don't pay up someone will find out.

Return to Francine Garret with 388 (or 600) caps. (Optional) Kill Caleb McCaffery. 6. Return to Francine with McCaffery's hat. _____________________________________________________________________

Start this quest by talking to Francine Garret in the Atomic Wrangler in Freeside. Ask her if she needs any help and agree to the caps split of 25/75 or complete the Barter 35 or Speech 35 challenge to get 50/50. First head out and find Grecks. He shakes down rather easily for 138 caps but you can use a Speech 40 challenge to get 179 caps out of him. You can always kill him or humiliate him but it's frowned upon. Next is Santiago who is quite the smooth talker. See through his ploy with a Speech 50 or Barter 40 to get 256 caps out of him. Don't bother bargaining for the "super secret code word" because it's a hoax. You could also have him pay off his debt by working for the Garret's to progress the side quest Wang Dang Atomic Tango, this results in no pay. Last is Lady Jane, be sure to talk to her about her wrecked caravan to earn a marker on your Pip-Boy. You can use Lady Killer or a Perception 7 challenge to gain 250 caps from her or use Barter/Speech 40 to gain 156 caps. Head over to Lady Jane's Caravan (near the Bootjack Cavern) and search Jane's Brahmin for [276 CAPS]. Return to Francine with the caps and you receive your cut. Now she wants you to deal with Caleb McCaffery. Find him in The Strip and use a Speech 40 challenge to get [CALEB MCCAFFERY'S HAT] and [57 CAPS]. You can also kill him for a larger reward of [156 CAPS], [ATOMIC WRANGLER ROOM KEY], and [CALEB MCCAFFERY'S HAT]. Return to Janice with the hat and she is delighted. Regardless of how you take care of Caleb you end up with [500 EXPERIENCE POINTS], [150 CAPS], and an [ATOMIC WRANGLER ROOM KEY] for your troubles. ______________________________________________________________________________ FaLlOuTf AlLoUtFa 3.20 Don't Make a Beggar of Me [SDQ-20] LlOuTfAl _____________________________________________________________________ LoUtFaLl OuTfAlLo Beggars can't be choosers and choosers can't be beggars...

Search the suitcase at Cloan for the chemical supply shipment. 2. Check with Chomps Lewis about the empty suitcase in his office. 3. Acquire the chem shipment from Tyrone in Primm. 4. Return to Melissa with the chem shipment. (Optional) Expose the Great Khan smuggling operation to Lieutenant Hayes. _____________________________________________________________________ To start this quest speak with Melissa at the Great Khan Encampment near Quarry Junction, northeast of Goodsprings. Agree to help her out with her chem problem and head to Sloan on the other side of the Quarry. Search the suitcase in the Mining Office Shack to find it's relatively empty. Head out and talk to Chomp Lewis who divulges that Tyrone isn't making the deliveries. Head to Primm and find Tyrone in the NCR camp nearby. You either have to pay 300 caps, kill him (not recommended), or pass one of several challenges to get the [DRUG CHEMICALS]. At this point you can return to Melissa and finish the quest to receive [100 EXP], [150 CAPS], various chems, and Great Khans Fame. You can also sneak on over to Lieutenant Hayes and rat out Tyrone for NCR Fame. ______________________________________________________________________________

3.21 Ed-E My Love [SDQ-21] _____________________________________________________________________ Named after the famous song "Eddie My Love" by Aaron Collins. _____________________________________________________________________ QUEST REWARD: ED-E receives an upgrade. QUEST OUTLINE: 1. ED-E appears to have some Enclave log data stored that is triggered by some keywords. 2. Find the patrol Knight Lorenzo told you about to let the Brotherhood of Steel examine ED-E 3. The patrol Lorenzo mentioned is dead, perhaps there is something on one of the corpses that may be useful. 4. There was a password on one of the Brotherhood corpses. Perhaps that could be used to bring ED-E to Lorenzo. 5. The Followers of the Apocalypse would like to see ED-E to get access to the logs he has stored 6. April Martimer with the Followers would like access to ED-E's data. She promises to upgrade its weapons while she works on it. 7. ED-E'S upgrades are complete. _____________________________________________________________________

To begin you must first have ED-E as a companion. To do this you must have a Repair skill of 65+ or a Science skill of 55+. If you lack these but have a Repair skill of 35+ then gather [SCRAP METAL x3], [SENSOR MODULE x2], and a [SCRAP ELECTRONICS x1] and return to fix ED-E at the Nash residence in Primm. This will add ED-E as a follower and give you the Enhanced Sensors Perk. Head to Old Lady Gibson at the Gibson Scrap Yard and talk to her. Mention HELIOS One to trigger a keyword in ED-E's system. After the conversation speak with ED-E and run the playback log. In order to advance the quest you must wait nine in-game days and then travel to HELIOS One. Search the building for Ignacio Rivas and talk to him about ARCHIMEDES. This is another keyword that you can trigger for ED-E. If for some reason you have less than 3 Intelligence then this is not an option. A good way to trigger some of the other keywords is to have Arcade and talk with him. Other keywords include Navarrom, Enclave, Poseidon, Air Force Base, and Eden. After getting the second log wait another 48 hours and you receive a live transmission from Knight Lorenzo of the Brotherhood of Steel. Help him out by finding his patrol in the REPCONN Headquarters. The patrol is dead lying on the top floor of the building. Loot the corpses for the [BROTHERHOOD OF STEEL MISSION HOLOTAPE] and the [NOTE: MISSION STATEMENT XV-56]. From here head to Hidden Valley to receive a message from April Martimer who wants you to bring ED-E to her instead of the Brotherhood of Steel. From here either take ED-E to Knight Lorenzo, which requires being on the good side of the Brotherhood of Steel, to have ED-E gain upgraded armor after a 72 hour wait period. If you take ED-E to April in the Old Mormon Fort and drop him off for 72 hours then he gets a weapon upgrade. After each wait you will receive a quest update that ED-E's upgrades are complete. Head back to Primm where you initially got him to find him new and improved. Note that this is a different model of ED-E so his inventory and commands are reset, be sure to remove any items of value before turning him over.

Follow the road west of here to reach Camp Searchlight and speak with First Sergeant Astor. He wants you to plant some bugs on the Legions communication systems in Cottonwood and gives you the [NCR BUG]. You can either side with the Legion and face no negative reputation from either side or side with the NCR and ultimately become villified with the Legion. Ave, true to Caesar The easy way out of this quest is to head to Cottonwood with the bug in hand and speak to Aurelius of Phoenix who typically resides in his office or the headquarters. You give him the bugs and he gives you the [OLD LEGION RAID PLANS] [OLD LEGION NOTES], and [OLD LEGION PAPERWORK]. You also gain Caesar's Legion Fame for simply informing him. Return to First Sergeant Astor and give him the old intel to gain more Caesar's Legion Fame, [500 EXPERIENCE POINTS], [150 CAPS] and a Negative Karma hit. We are the NCR If you have no ties with the Legion then take this dangerous route. Regardless of your current status, be it friendly or not, with Caesar's Legion head to Cottonwood Cove and enter the Headquarters. Plant the bug on the radio and check the filing cabinets nearby for the [LEGION RAID PLANS]. Head out and up the stairs to the Office of Aurelius of Phoenix.

This will kill all the Legionaries in one fell swoop making it an easy task for you. There is also the method of simply entering the camp and lighting it up (or tactfully entering and ridding it of Legionaries). Whichever method you choose be sure to loot the

[RECOMPENSE OF THE FALLEN] from Aurelius of Phoenix. Return to Astor with the news of your successful mission to receive a high amount of Caesar's Legion Infamy, NCR Fame (more for using the barrels), [200 CAPS] (or 250 for using the barrels), and a whopping [1000 EXPERIENCE POINTS]. ______________________________________________________________________________ FaLlOuTf AlLoUtFa 3.23 Eyesight to the Blind [SDQ-23] LlOuTfAl _____________________________________________________________________ LoUtFaLl OuTfAlLo The quest is named after the song by Sonny Boy Williamson II.

Speak with her again to have the squad try their luck with grenades. The same challenge applies except with Explosives skill 25, 35, and 45 respectively. Once the squad is all set talk to Mags to finish the quest. If you choose O'Hanrahan he thinks that the squad needs more cohesion. Converse with each member individually and talk about their backgrounds. Then bring up the need to respect each other (Speech 50+). Do this for the other three members then speak with O'Hanrahan to finish the quest. Poindexter is the smart one and has his own idea on how to make the squad better. Tell him that he can cheat on the upcoming test to face his rebuttle of hacking the records and making their scores higher.

Follow the quest marker to Vault 34 and beware the Golden Geckos that lurk nearby. Once you enter you will soon realize that all the vault inhabitants have become Ghouls and the area is highly irradiated.

Begin to descend following the signs to the Overseers Office until you reach a fork where there are only two signs, each pointing to the right labeled Overseer's Office and Clinic. This should put you at the far west side of the local map. At this juncture go west and into the water until you find a dead Vault Technician.

Leave the barracks area and back into the Concourse. Run to the northern end into the Supply Shack, bypass Sgt. Contreras and head outside. Here you will find Private Crenshaw patrolling a low traffic area. Kill Crenshaw and head back through the Concourse to the Monorail area. Head inside the monorail and plant the explosive charge in the vent. Stop off the monorail and watch as it takes off to an inevitable doom. Return to Colonel Hsu to clear things up. If you tell Hsu that Crenshaw had explosives and plans then he believes you. If you tell him that Crenshaw confessed and used a latin word then that works as well. All other options cause the quest to fail. Talk with Curtis regardless to receive the reward of [250 CAPS], [500 EXPERIENCE POINTS], and Caesar's Legion Fame. ______________________________________________________________________________ FaLlOuTf AlLoUtFa 3.39 Keep Your Eyes On The Prize [SDQ-39] LlOuTfAl _____________________________________________________________________

Return to Frank Weathers. _____________________________________________________________________ Find Frank Weathers in the tents of the Aerotech Office Park. Ask him about his family and agree to help find them to start the quest. Head south to the Cottonwood Cove where the Legion runs business. Near the river you can find the Weathers family tied up and caged. Talk to any of them and they beg you to free them, tell them you are working on it. If you aren't hostile with the Legion then find Canyon Runner and purchase the slaves for 300 Caps or pass the Speech 50+ challenge to lower it to 150 Caps. With this you can simply let them go free without risk of their explosive collars going off. If you are hostile with the Legion then you can clear a path and take the [WEATHERS SLAVE KEY] or break through the Hard Locked gate and disarm the collar with Explosives 50. This method usually ends poorly if you don't clear the camp out (which can be done for another side quest) or fail to disarm the bombed collars. Return to Frank Weathers and tell him the news about his family or push him to suicide for being a terrible husband/father. If you tell him he needs to clean up his act to be around his family you receive caps based on how many family members survived; 100 for 0 survivors, 250 for one, 500 for two, and 1000 if no family members died. ______________________________________________________________________________ FaLlOuTf AlLoUtFa 3.41 Medical Mystery [SDQ-41] LlOuTfAl _____________________________________________________________________ LoUtFaLl OuTfAlLo UtFaLlOu

Primm's Deputy has been captured by Powder Gangers in Bison Steve and needs to be rescued. 2a. Beagle has been rescued from the Bison Steve. Talk to him about protecting the town. 2b. Beagle is dead. I should find someone willing to to help me figure out how to help Primm. 3a. Beagle wants a new sheriff for Primm. He suggested an ex-seriff at NCRCF and the NCR as potential candidates. 3b. With Beagle dead, Johnson Nash requested help finding a new sheriff. He suggested the NCR or an ex-sheriff at NCRCF. (Optional) Reprogram Primm Slimm to be sheriff of Primm. 4a. Hayes and the NCR will protect Primm if they get some additional military personnel. 4b. Major Knight promised additional troops for Primm. Speak to Hayes about NCR protection for Primm. 5a. Meyers, a former sheriff from NCRCF, is willing to be Sheriff of Primm if he gets a pardon from the NCR. 5b. Return to Meyers and let him know NCR has pardoned him and he can take over as sheriff. _____________________________________________________________________ When you are at Primm during the Main Quest you can save Deputy Beagle from the Powder Gangers inside the Bison Steve Casino. To do so speak with Johnson Nash in the Vikki and Vance Casino then go rescue the Deputy (or not). If you

save Beagle then he wants you to find a new Sheriff. If Beagle dies then talk to Nash again to do the same in finding a replacement. There are three worthy candidates nearby, one of them being Primm Slimm, the robot working in the Vikki and Vance. To make him Sheriff simply reprogram him (Science Skill 35+) and the quest completes. You could also make Lieutenant Hayes the new Sheriff. On the west side of Primm you can find him in a small camp with other NCR Troops. Tell him you want him to take over but he informs you there isn't enough men to be spared, but with reinforcements he will do the job. Go the Mojave Outpost and talk with Major Knight about sending troops to Primm. A Speech Skill of 50+ will allow you to convince Knight to do it. Return to Hayes with the good news and he will let Sergeant McGee take over as Sheriff. The other choice is a former Sheriff named Meyers. You can find Meyers in the NCR Correctional Facility. He says he'll do the job but needs a pardon from the NCR in order to leave. Talk to Major Knight at the Mojave Outpost and convince him (Speech Skill 45+) to grant a pardon or purchase a pardon for 200 Caps. Return to Meyers with the good news and he will do the job. All quest paths result in [300 EXPERIENCE POINTS] and three days after the new Sheriff takes over you can come back to Primm to gamble at the Vikki and Vance. ______________________________________________________________________________ FaLlOuTf AlLoUtFa 3.43 No, Not Much [SDQ-43] LlOuTfAl _____________________________________________________________________ LoUtFaLl OuTfAlLo UtFaLlOu TfAlLoUt _____________________________________________________________________ QUEST REWARD: QUEST OUTLINE: 1. _____________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ FaLlOuTf AlLoUtFa 3.44 Nothin' But A Hound Dog [SDQ-44] LlOuTfAl _____________________________________________________________________ LoUtFaLl OuTfAlLo UtFaLlOu TfAlLoUt _____________________________________________________________________ QUEST REWARD: QUEST OUTLINE: 1. _____________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ FaLlOuTf AlLoUtFa 3.45 Oh My Papa [SDQ-45] LlOuTfAl _____________________________________________________________________ LoUtFaLl OuTfAlLo UtFaLlOu TfAlLoUt _____________________________________________________________________ QUEST REWARD:

Basically, he needs to get his Camp back into functioning order to take back Nelson from the Legion. Check the southeast corner to find a [BIG BOOK OF SCIENCE] then head out of the tent. Head south and talk with Quartermaster Mayes telling him that the Major sent you. He suggests talking to the folks at HELIOS One to find out where the supplies are. At HELIOS One talk with Lt. Haggerty, she mentions the troops stopping by and she put a GPS tracker in the supplies. Follow the new quest marker to reach the supplies. Just past a pack of Fire Geckos you will find the supplies and remains of the troops. Loot the troops for [NCR DOGTAG x3], [FORLORN HOPE LETTER 1], [FORLORN HOPE LETTER 8] and then the chest for [CAMP FORLORN HOPE SUPPLY SHIPMENT]. Upon taking the supplies you are ambushed by three Legion Recruits. Kill them or flee, either way return to Mayes. Return to Major Polatli who in turn sends you over to Dr. Richards to see if he can use any help. Head north of the Command Center to find Dr. Richards. Ask him if you can be of any assistance to which he asks if you have medical experience. A 20+ in the Medical Skill is enough to pass the check, likewise you can lie. There are three patients that need be healed and a Medicine Skill of 40, 60, and 75+ is enough to treat them without any of your own items. You can also treat them if you have any of the items listed to heal them with. Afterwards talk to Dr. Richards then return to Major Polatli.

Let Joe Cobb know once "you're ready to take over" Goodsprings. 4. Hand the spare medical supplies over to Joe Cobb. 5. Defeat the Goodspring militia. _____________________________________________________________________ This quest starts out much like the Goodsprings Ghost Town quest, [SDQ-27], except instead of aiding Goodsprings you aid the Powder Gangers. To do this listen to Trudy and Cobb fighting then speak with Cobb and follow him to a building in the southeast area of the town. You can ask about how he got in jail for a skill level 20 Speech challenge and ask about taking over the town. With an Intelligence of 6 you can get a speech challenge, otherwise tell him you'll kill Ringo. In the north west corner of town you will find Ringo in the Goodsprings Gas Station. Ringo will inform you about the game of Caravan and hand you his spare [CARAVAN DECK]. In the end simply kill Ringo and loot his body. Open the crates nearby for [SUNSET SARSAPARILLA x5] then check the duffle bag behind the counter for [.357 MAGNUM ROUND x9], [CASE, .357 MAGNUM x4], [FIXIN' THINGS], and a [STIMPAK]. Open the floor safe under the mattress for [146 CAPS], a

[NUKA-COLA], and a [SUNSET SARSAPARILLA x2]. In the back on the shelf is a [BOXIN' TIMES] and on the floor is a [DOCTOR'S BAG]. Return to Joe Cobb to tell him the news. He gives you the option of shaking down the townsman for extra supplies before the battle begins. Head to the General Store and talk with Chet. A Speech or Barter of 25+ will allow you to shake him down for [9MM ROUNDS x30] and a [LEATHER ARMOR], you also gain Powder Gangers Fame. Head to Doc Mitchell's house and lie to him about an injured man, a Medicine of 25+ will net you the [SPARE MEDICAL SUPPLIES]. Give the supplies to Joe for Powder Gangers Fame then tell him you're ready to take over the town. Joe gives you [STIMPAK x5] and a [SUPER STIMPAK] if you gave him the medical supplies. Once the battle starts head to the Prospector Saloon and take out the named NPCs. After everyone is dead you complete the quest and are rewarded with [50 EXPERIENCE POINTS], Powder Gangers Fame, and Goodsprings Infamy. ______________________________________________________________________________ FaLlOuTf AlLoUtFa 3.52 Someone To Watch Over Me [SDQ-52] LlOuTfAl _____________________________________________________________________ LoUtFaLl OuTfAlLo UtFaLlOu TfAlLoUt _____________________________________________________________________ QUEST REWARD: QUEST OUTLINE: 1. _____________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ FaLlOuTf AlLoUtFa 3.53 Still In The Dark [SDQ-53] LlOuTfAl _____________________________________________________________________ LoUtFaLl OuTfAlLo UtFaLlOu TfAlLoUt _____________________________________________________________________ QUEST REWARD: QUEST OUTLINE: 1. _____________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ FaLlOuTf AlLoUtFa 3.54 Sunshine Boogie [SDQ-54] LlOuTfAl _____________________________________________________________________ LoUtFaLl OuTfAlLo I want to put on my my my my my boogie shoes UtFaLlOu TfAlLoUt _____________________________________________________________________ "Til the QUEST REWARD: 300 EXP, Boomer Fame sun comes up" QUEST OUTLINE: 1.

If you've been to HELIOS One already then you can tell him you can find some there, otherwise Loyal can't be of much help to you. Head to HELIOS One and reach the fenced off area by going through the building or hopping the fence. On the west side near a small camp set up you will find an array that can be salvaged with 20 Repair skill. Go west from here to a tent to find another [SOLAR ARRAY PART].

Return to Alice with Cass alive to receive [500 CAPS] and NCR Fame. Henry Jamison is the next objective and you can find him at the Atomic Wrangler in Freeside. The task is simple enough with a Speech skill of 50+, a simple challenge will make him resign his position. Otherwise you have to kill him or pay him a severance. Return to Alice to tell the good news, you are rewarded with [150 CAPS] if you kill Henry, [300 CAPS] if you paid his debt and gave him severance, [400 CAPS] if you only paid his debt, or [500 CAPS] if you convinced him to quit with the Speech challenge; you also receive Crimson Caravan Fame. Next up is the Gun Runners facility so head there. The only way through the gated area is to pick the lock so do so when no one is looking then dart for the building. Once here sneak your way straight back and use the computer along the right side and choose "Download manufacturing specifications" to complete the objective. Return to Alice to receive [300 CAPS] if you shot someone or they shot you, or [500 CAPS] if you weren't seen, as well as Crimson Caravan Fame.

_____________________________________________________________________ 5.2 Skills [STA-2] _____________________________________________________________________ There are 13 skills in New Vegas, and it's nearly the same set as in Fallout 3. The differences are: 1. Small Guns has been renamed to Guns. 2. Big Guns is no longer a skill in New Vegas. 3. The Survival Skill is new. This section deals with all skills. These are derived from one of your SPECIAL stats, and are further increased by spending skill points after levelling up, or by reading skill books or skill magazines.

Skill Books permanently increase a skill with 3 points. If you have the Comprehension Perk, Skill Books grant one additional point per book, for a total of 4 points. __________________ Skill Magazines temporarily increase a INT: SKILL POINTS: skill by 10 points. If you have the =-=- =-=-=-=-=-=-= Comprehension Perk, they temporarily 1 10.5 increase the skill by 20 points. 2 11 3 11.5 Intelligence is the SPECIAL stat that 4 12 influences how many skill points you get 5 12.5 for each level up. Starting at 10.5 skill 6 13 points at 1 INT, this can become 15 points 7 13.5 at level 10. This has been dumbed down 8 14 from 20 in Fallout 3. It's a good idea 9 14.5 to start out with a high INT stat. 10 15 An interesting shift from Fallout 3 to New Vegas is that skills such as Barter and Speech have become a lot more useful. Dialogue options are no longer chance-dependent, but require a fixed amount of skill points. You can now expect to see dialogue options that require 50 speech - bottom line. If you don't have enough, you can't get the option to work, it's that simple. There are various options for Barter as well. Other skills may also have dialogue options, such as Medicine, Sneak, Repair or Science, although these are less common than Speech and Barter dialogue options. BARTER Statistic: Useage:

_____________________________________________________________________ 5.3 Perks [STA-3] _____________________________________________________________________ CONFIRMED BACHELOR/CHERCHEZ LA FEMME Level: 2 Ranks: 1 Usefulness: [*****] / [**...] Prerequisite: Male/Female gender Description: In combat, you do +10% damage against opponents of the same sex. You sometimes get access to unique dialogue options when dealing with the same sex. While Confirmed Bachelor is supremely useful, as a woman you're better off taking the Black Widow perk. There are simply more men than women in the game. LADY KILLER/BLACK WIDOW Level: 2 Ranks: 1 Usefulness: [**...] / [*****] Prerequisite: Male/Female gender Description: In combat you do +10% damage against opponents of the other sex. You sometimes get access to unique dialogue options when dealing with the other sex. While Black Widow is supremely useful, as a man you're better off taking the Confirmed Bachelor perk. There are simply more men than women in the game. FRIEND OF THE NIGHT Level: 2 Ranks: 1 Usefulness: [.....] Prerequisite: Sneak: 30, Perception: 6 Description: Your eyes adapt quickly to low-light conditions indoors and when darkness falls across the post-nuclear wastelend. Well that's just great, but it's better to turn up your TV's brightness a little (or better yet, check the in-game options) than to waste a perk spot. HEAVE, HO! Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

2 1 [*....] Explosives: 30, Strength: 5 All thrown weapons fly farther and faster for you. Nothing more, nothing less.

HUNTER Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite:

2 1 [*....] Survival: 30

Description: In combat, you do +75% *critical* damage against animals and mutated animals. So your regular damage stays the same. When you do get a critical, it's not even twice the extra damage, but only 75% extra, and only against animals and mutated animals. Ever been scared of Mole Rats? INTENSE TRAINING Level: 2 Ranks: 10 Usefulness: [****.] Prerequisite: --Description: Put a single point in a SPECIAL stat of your choice. RAPID RELOAD Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

2 1 [**...] Guns: 30, Agility: 5 Makes all your weapon reloads 25% faster than normal. This can make a little difference, but it's better to always keep your gun reloaded anyway. Reloading in the heat of battle can be annoying, but there are many other great perks to be chosen.

RETENTION Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

2 1 [*....] Intelligence: 5 The bonuses granted by skill magazines last three times as long. You usually only need these bonuses for a very short while anyhow, for a dialogue challenge, picking a lock, hacking a terminal, etc.

SWIFT LEARNER Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

2 3 [.....] Intelligence: 4 You gain +10% extra experience points whenever EXP is given. Considering you'll reach Level 30 by yourself, this is only a waste of a perk spot. Why hurry? It's only 10%. ________________________________________________________________________________ CANNIBAL Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

4 1 [.....] --With the Cannibal perk you can eat corpses when in sneak bodies, allowing you to regain hit points with this action. Everytime you feed, you lose Karma and if the act is witnessed, well, you get attacked. This isn't one of the best perks..

COMPREHENSION Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

4 1 [*****] Intelligence: 4 You get double the temporary bonus from reading skill magazines (+20 points instead of +10), and one extra permanent point from reading skill books (+4 instead of +3). A very useful perk as this allows you to boost a whole lot more skills.

EDUCATED Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

4 1 [*****] Intelligence: 4 You get two more skill points every time you level up. Take this perk at level 4 to get the most out of it: +52 skill points baby!

ENTOMOLOGIST Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

4 1 [**...] Survival: 45, Intelligence: 4 You deal +50% extra damage to mutated insects such as Radroaches, Giant Mantises and Radscorpions. Decent, but not more than that.

RAD CHILD Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

4 1 [*....] Survival: 70 The higher your radiation sickness stage, the more health you recover. Preferably, you don't even want to have radiation sickness because it comes with stats penalties..

RUN 'N GUN Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

4 1 [**...] Guns: 45 OR Energy Weapons: 45 Reduces accuracy penalties when running and shooting with onehanded weapons (guns and energy weapons).

TRAVEL LIGHT Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

4 1 [*....] Survival: 45 While wearing light armor or no armor, you run 10% faster. Cute,

but hardly essential. ________________________________________________________________________________ BLOODY MESS Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

6 1 [****.] --Enemies will often explode into a red, gut-ridden paste, and you do +5% extra damage with ALL weapons. The gore is cute, but the additional damage - even though it's only 5% - is very welcome.

DEMOLITION EXPERT Level: 6 Ranks: 3 Usefulness: [****.] Prerequisite: Explosives: 50 Description: All explosive weapons (including mines, grenades, missile launcher and Fat Men) do +20% damage. That's quite a good bonus if you'd like to specialise in explosives. FEROCIOUS LOYALTY Level: 6 Ranks: 1 Usefulness: [**...] Prerequisite: Charisma: 6 Description: When you drop below 50% health, your companions gain much greater resistance to damage. Useful if you hate to see your companions die in Hardcore mode, but otherwise not useful. FORTUNE FINDER Level: 6 Ranks: 1 Usefulness: [**...] Prerequisite: Luck: 5 Description: You find more bottle caps in containers than you normally would. Meh.. Compared to other perks this one just doesn't compare, especially because you only receive around +20% extra. GUNSLINGER Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

6 1 [**...] --Your accuracy in V.A.T.S. is improved when using one-handed guns like a Pistol. Handy, but you could always stand a little closer to your target. Or, you know, use a Sniper Rifle.

HAND LOADER

Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

6 1 [***..] Repair: 70 You know your way around reloading benches and don't let good brass and hulls go to waste. When you use guns you're more likely to recover cases and hulls. You also know all hand load recipes at all reloading benches. A very decent perk to say the least.

LEAD BELLY Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

6 1 [.....] Survival: 40, Endurance: 5 You take -50% radiation when consuming food and drinks. What can I say? RadAway!

SHOTGUN SURGEON Level: 6 Ranks: 1 Usefulness: [***..] Prerequisite: Guns: 45 Description: When using shotguns, regardless what ammo you use, you ignore an additional 10 points of the targets Damage Treshold. Quite nice! THE PROFESSIONAL Level: 6 Ranks: 1 Usefulness: [****.] Prerequisite: Sneak: 70 Description: Sneak Attack Criticals with Pistols, Revolvers and Submachine Guns (both Guns and Energy Weapons) all inflict +20% damage. That's quite a big bonus and you should definitely consider this perk. TOUGHNESS Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

6 2 [****.] Endurance: 5 Adds +3 to Damage Treshold. This is s decent boost to your DT, and you can take two ranks in it.

VIGILANT RECYCLER Level: 6 Ranks: 1 Usefulness: [***..] Prerequisite: Science: 70 Description: When using Energy Weapons you are more likely to recover ammo. You also have more efficient recipes available at workbenches. ________________________________________________________________________________

COMMANDO Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

8 1 [***..] --Your accuracy is improved in V.A.T.S. with two-handed weapons (such as rifles). Could be useful for those who like to play around with Sniper Rifles.

COWBOY Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

8 1 [***..] Guns: 45, Melee Weapons: 45 You do +25% damage with revolvers, lever-action firearms, dynamite, knives and hatchets. Not bad.

LIVING ANATOMY Level: 8 Ranks: 1 Usefulness: [***..] Prerequisite: Medicine: 70 Description: Allows you to see the health and Damage Treshold of any target. You also do +5% damage against humans and non-feral ghouls. This is quite cool to have, and the damage bonus is nice too, but at this point there's many competition.. PACK RAT Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

8 1 Hardcore: [*****] / Non-hardcore [.....] Barter: 70, Intelligence: 5 Items with a weight of 2 or less only weigh half as much. You'll definitely want to take this perk if you're playing on Hardcore. Otherwise, don't bother.

QUICK DRAW Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

8 1 [.....] Agility: 5 You equip and holster weapons 50% faster. The holstering part is completely useless and ... so is the equipping part to a great extent. Worthless.

RAD RESISTANCE Level: 8 Ranks: 1

Usefulness: [*....] Prerequisite: Survival: 40, Endurance: 5 Description: Rad resist +25%. Nothing more, nothing less. SCROUNGER Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

8 1 [*....] Luck: 5 You find more ammo in containers. Can be useful, but the perk competition is getting tighter.

STONEWALL Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

8 1 [**...] Strength: 6, Endurance: 6 +5 Damage Treshold against melee weaons and unarmed attack. You can also no longer be knocked down in combat.

STRONG BACK Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description: SUPER SLAM Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

8 1 [****.] Strength: 5, Endurance: 5 Increases Carry Weight by +50. Niiice!

8 1 [*....] Melee Weapons: 45, Strength: 6 All melee weapons (except thrown ones) and unarmed attacks have a chance of knocking your target down. Handy, but not essential. Only useful if you're specialising in Unarmed.

TERRIFYING PRESENCE Level: 8 Ranks: 1 Usefulness: [?????] Prerequisite: Speech: 70 Description: In some conversations, you gain the ability to initiate combat while terrifying a mob of opponents, sending them fleeing away for safety. I don't know what the **** that means, but when I find out, this vague description will hit the garbage bin. ________________________________________________________________________________ ANIMAL FRIEND Level: 10

Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

2 [*....] Survival: 45, Charisma: 6 Rank 1: Animals don't attack you. Rank 2: Animals aid you in combat, but never against other animals. The first rank is arguably useless, and it's too big a price to pay TWO perk spots just to get the effects from rank 2. Furthermore, animals usually come in packs and won't attack each other.

FINESSE Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

10 1 [***..] --You have a higher chance to score critical hits, equivalent to 5 extra points of Luck. Well, that's not too bad, actually.

HERE AND NOW Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

10 1 [.....] --Instantly grants you a level. Absolutely worthless, considering there's a limited amount of levels and you *will* get there anyway, but to waste a perk spot with this would be ridiculous.

MATH WRATH Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

10 1 [****.] Science: 70 Reduces all Action Points (AP) costs by 10%. Quite nice, especially in combination of other AP boosting perks! You can make a realy V.A.T.S. killer character eventually.

MISS FORTUNE Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

10 1 [***..] Luck: 6 Just when your enemies think they have the upper hand, Miss Fortune appears to turn their world upside down. Appearing only in V.A.T.S., she has the ability to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

MISTER SANDMAN Level: 10 Ranks: 1 Usefulness: [.....] Prerequisite: Sneak: 60

Description: When in sneak mode you can silently kill any sleeping human or ghoul, gaining experience too. But.. if they're sleeping, why not just grab a Silenced Pistol or powerful melee weapon? This perk is worthless compared to all others you can choose. MYSTERIOUS STRANGER Level: 10 Ranks: 1 Usefulness: [**...] Prerequisite: Luck: 6 Description: The Mysterious Stranger will randomly appear if the opponent is still alive with 150 HP or less, with a chance of 10%, finishing it off. Probably interferes with Grim Reaper's Sprint (although dumbed down still preferable), so the Mysterious Stranger is not too useful. NERD RAGE! Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

10 1 [*....] Science: 50, Intelligence: 5 When health is at 20% or below (like, the point where any sane person starts healing - I mean, c'mon, there's a *reason* your health dropped that low, and that reason is likely to be four sentry bots or a pack of ferocious deathclaws), only THEN will your Strength get raised to 10, and do you gain +15 Damage Treshold. Extremely conditional usage.

NIGHT PERSON Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

10 1 [*....] --When the sun is down this perk grants +2 INT and PER (max = 10). This works both outside and inside. Did I mention it's worthless?

PLASMA SPAZ Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

10 1 [**...] Energy Weapons: 70 Action Point costs for Plasma Weapons (including Plasma Grenades) are reduced by 10%. Since Math Wrath reduces *ALL* AP costs by 10%, you should always take that one first. Regardless, this could still be a decent choice if you really want to make a killer character in V.A.T.S., equipped with a Plasma Rifle (because let's face it, that'd be the sole reason to take this perk, because who cares about Plasma Grenades Action Point costs?) I'm not going to make a joke about the name Plasma Spaz, because I'm not *that* dirty. ________________________________________________________________________________

FAST METABOLISM Level: 12 Ranks: 1 Usefulness: [**...] Prerequisite: --Description: +20% Stimpak effectiveness. Quite useful, but you can also be more careful or hold more Stimpaks close to your heart.. GHASTLY SCAVENGER Level: 12 Ranks: 1 Usefulness: [.....] Prerequisite: Cannibal Perk Description: You can now also devour Super Mutants and Feral Ghouls. Once again a worthless perk. HIT THE DECK Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description: LIFE GIVER Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description: LONG HAUL Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

12 1 [***..] Explosives: 70 Damage Treshold +50% against *ALL* explosions. Can be useful!

12 1 [***..] Endurance: 6 Grants +30 Health Points. Unique and useful.

12 1 [**...] Barter: 70, Endurance: 6 Being overcumbered no longer prevents you from Fast Travelling. Brings mixed feelings. Sounds great, right? Grab everything you want (at least on the Mojave Wasteland), then Fast Travel to a place where you can sell it all and dump it. But this still requires an *entire* perk spot and the competition is big. Can't you just dump your companion full with items anyway?

PIERCING STRIKE Level: 12 Ranks: 1 Usefulness: [****.] Prerequisite: Unarmed: 70 Description: When strikeing unarmed or melee weapons (including thrown ones), this perk negates 15 Damage Treshold points. Very useful for

Unarmed character builds, arguably even essential. It can also have its uses for regular characters, as this greatly improves melee combat in general. PYROMANIAC Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

12 1 [**...] Explosives: 60 +50% damage with fire-based weapons like Flamer and Shishkebab. Useful, sure, but essential? Maybe for melee characters.

ROBOTICS EXPERT Level: 12 Ranks: 1 Usefulness: [****.] Prerequisite: Science: 50 Description: +25% damage to all robots. Sneaking up to a robot undetected gives you the option to permanently shut them down. Good stuff! SILENT RUNNING Level: 12 Ranks: 1 Usefulness: [*....] Prerequisite: Sneak: 50, Agility: 6 Description: You run just as silently as crouched. But in all seriousness, learn to sneak properly by staying undetected and save a perk spot for something more useful. SNIPER Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

12 1 [**...] Perception: 6, Agility: 6 The chance to hit an opponent's head is significantly increased. Probably by 25%. Decent, not more than that.

SPLASH DAMAGE Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

12 1 [**...] Explosives: 70 +25% area effect for all explosions you cause. If you're a pyro, this is for you! Otherwise, well, it's decent.

UNSTOPPABLE FORCE Level: 12 Ranks: 1

Usefulness: [*....] Prerequisite: Melee Weapons: 90, Strength: 7 Description: You do a large amount of additional damage through enemy blocks with all Unarmed and Melee attacks. Sounds great, but think about what it says. It increase your damage when an enemy is blocking only. It might be semi-handy for Unarmed characters, but even then you might want to pick an other precious perk. ________________________________________________________________________________ ADAMANTIUM SKELETON Level: 14 Ranks: 1 Usefulness: [*....] Prerequisite: --Description: Your limbs only receive 50% of the damage they normally would. Sounds amazing, but this does nothing with regards to the regular damage taken. And how often are your limbs crippled in combat? Well.., yeah, *sometimes*, but not *that* often. This perk has limited use. CENTER OF MASS Level: 14 Ranks: 1 Usefulness: [***..] Prerequisite: Guns: 70 Description: +15% damage in V.A.T.S. when targetting the torso. Certainly a notable perk, especially for V.A.T.S. lovers. CHEMIST Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

14 1 [*....] Medicine: 60 Chems last twice as long. Nice, but can't you just take a second one when it wears off? Sure, sure, you might get addicted, but that chance isn't too high and you can always cure that "Ave"!

JURY RIGGING Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

14 1 [****.] Repair: 90 You possess the amazing ability to repair any item using a roughly similar item. Fix a Trail Carbine with a Hunting Rifle, a Plasma Defende with a Laser Pistol, or even Power Armor with Metal Armor. How does it work? Nobody knows... except you. This is actually a unique and quite handy perk, allowing you to fix a wider arsenal of weapons and equipment.

LIGHT STEP Level:

14

Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description: PURIFIER Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

1 [.....] Perception: 6, Agility: 6 You never set off enemy mines or floor-based traps. Who cares? Just be more careful and save often, or disarm the things.

14 1 Unarmed Builds: [****.] / All-Round: [**...] --+50% damage with Unarmed and Melee Weapons against Centaurs, Nightstalkers, Spore Plants, Spore Carriers, Deathclaws, Super Mutants and Feral Ghouls. Only useful for unarmed character builds. ________________________________________________________________________________ ACTION BOY Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

16 2 [****.] Agility: 6 You gain +15 AP. Nice!

BETTER CRITICALS Level: 16 Ranks: 1 Usefulness: [****.] Prerequisite: Perception: 6, Luck: 6 Description: +50% damage bonus for all critical hits you deliver. Very nice indeed. Unfortunately it requires relatively high PER and LCK stats, so you might need to skip it with certain character builds. CHEM RESISTANT Level: 16 Ranks: 1 Usefulness: [*....] Prerequisite: Medicine: 60 Description: 50% less chance to develop an addiction to chems. Then again, if you're careful you'll never need to build up an addiction at all. MELTDOWN Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

16 1 [**...] Energy Weapons: 90 Enemies killed by Energy Weapons give off a corona of harmful energy. This can cause a chain reaction. More a fun perk than actually helpful - it won't happen all that often to have enemies grouped together tightly enough for this to cause a lot of damage.

TAG! Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

16 1 [.....] --Raises one skill with +15 points. Would've been "cute" at level 10, but at level 16, this is simply not worth the effort. There are better ways to raise your skills.

WEAPON HANDLING Level: 16 Ranks: 1 Usefulness: [*....] Prerequisite: Strength lower than 10. Description: Weapon strength requirements are now 2 points lower than normal. Again, this has limited usefulness. It'd be better to select Intense Training - besides, you wouldn't want to have low strength in any character build. ________________________________________________________________________________ COMPUTER WHIZ Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

18 1 [.....] Science: 70, Intelligence: 7 If you are locked out of a computer, you get a second attempt. They're back, the two useful hacking and lockpicking perks. The solution is simple: Save before hacking, and don't force locks.

CONCENTRATED FIRE Level: 18 Ranks: 1 Usefulness: [***..] Prerequisite: Energy Weapons: 60, Guns: 60 Description: Your accuracy to hit any body part in V.A.T.S. increases slightly with each subsequent hit on that body part. All in all this results in a decent increase of accuracy. INFILTRATOR Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

18 1 [.....] Lockpick: 70, Perception: 7 If you break a lock you get a second chance. This is the worthless twin of Computer Whiz, and no one should ever bother with it on a level as high as 18. Even at level 2 it would be bad!

PARALYZING PALM Level: 18 Ranks: 1

Usefulness: Unarmed Builds: [*****] / All-Round Builds: [*....] Prerequisite: Unarmed: 70 Description: You will sometimes perform a special V.A.T.S. palm strike that paralyzes your opponent for 30 seconds. You must be completely Unarmed for this to sometimes happen. A good perk for Unarmed builds, otherwise it's kind of got a limited use. ________________________________________________________________________________ EXPLORER Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

20 1 [**...] --All locations are revealed on the Mojave Wasteland. It's a quick practical solution, but it's nothing you can't do yourself. Two stars for practical uses, but otherwise zero for completionists. It can be very annoying to not know which locations you haven't explored yet, though, so keep that in mind.

GRIM REAPER'S SPRINT Level: 20 Ranks: 1 Usefulness: [*****] Prerequisite: --Description: If you kill a target in V.A.T.S., twenty Action Points (AP) are restored upon exiting V.A.T.S. mode. Although heavily dumbed down from Fallout 3 (where it restored all AP), this is still a great perk to take. NINJA Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

20 1 Unarmed Builds: [*****] / All-Round Builds: [***..] Melee Weapons: 80, Sneak: 80 When attacking with Melee Weapons or Unarmed you gain a +15% critical chance on every strike. Sneak Attack Criticals do 25% more damage than normal. A must for all Unarmed builds, and even decent for All-Round Builds.

SOLAR POWERED Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

20 1 [*....] Endurance: 7 When walking in direct sunlight: +2 Strength and slow health regeneration. It's like getting 'Night Person' at level 20, and yes, it's worthless. ________________________________________________________________________________ LASER COMMANDER Level: 22 Ranks: 1

Usefulness: [****.] Prerequisite: Energy Weapons: 90 Description: +15% damage and +10% chance to get critical hits with all Laser Weapons. Well, that *is* quite useful! NUKA CHEMIST Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

22 1 [?????] Science: 90 You can now create a special kind of Nuka-Cola at workbenches.

SPRAY AND PRAY Level: 22 Ranks: 1 Usefulness: [*....] Prerequisite: --Description: Your attacks do much less damage to your companions. (Oh, right, I'm level 22, so we must be so dumb to actually start randomly "spraying" bullets at my companions when firing at enemies). The only useful scenario would be when explosions are involved. ________________________________________________________________________________ SLAYER Level: Ranks: Usefulness: Prerequisite: Description:

24 1 Unarmed Builds: [*****] / All-Round Builds: [**...] Unarmed: 90, Agility: 7 Speed of all Unarmed and Melee Weapon attacks increased by +30%. Again, this really shows how much the developers wanted people to "like" Unarmed builds. It's a must for Unarmed builds, but not more than decent for all-round builds. ________________________________________________________________________________ NERVES OF STEEL Level: 26 Ranks: 1 Usefulness: [****.] Prerequisite: Agility: 7 Description: Action Points recover much more quickly than normal. Yet another crown for V.A.T.S. lovers. ________________________________________________________________________________ RAD ABSORPTION Level: 28 Ranks: 1 Usefulness: [.....] Prerequisite: Endurance: 7 Description: Your radiation level slowly decreases on it's own over time. It removes -20 RAD every 20 seconds. The real question is, who really cares? I say, RadAway! ________________________________________________________________________________

BETTER HEALING Companion: Arcade Gannon Usefulness: [***..] Description: You regain more health from all consumable sources. Quite handy! ENHANCED SENSORS Companion: ED-E Usefulness: [*....] Description: You can detect enemies from very long distances, and stealthed enemies can also be detected. Nifty, but not very useful. REGULAR MAINTENANCE Companion: Raul Usefulness: [***..] Description: Your weapons and equipment condition decays 50% slower. That is actually decently useful. SCRIBE ASSISTANT Companion: Veronica Usefulness: [*....] Description: You are allowed to craft workbench items through dialogue options with Veronica. Sounds awesome, but you might as well be patient and find a Workbench. SEARCH AND MARK Companion: Rex Usefulness: [.....] Description: Chems, firearms and ammo in your close surroundings are all highlighted when you zoom in with the camera. Hardly useful at all. SPOTTER Companion: Craig Boone Usefulness: [.....] Description: Hostile targets are highlighted when you're actively aiming. Not very useful either. STEALTH GIRL Companion: Lily Usefulness: [****.] Description: Increases Stealth-Boy duration by 200% and also increases Sneak Attack Critical hits by +10% damage. Very nice for a companion perk! WHISKEY ROSE

Companion: Cass Usefulness: [****.] Description: Consuming Whiskey doesn't reduce your SPECIAL stats and you are no longer at risk of getting addicted to Whiskey, but you do raise your Damage Treshold. Useful to say the least! _____________________________________________________________________ 5.4 Traits [STA-4] _____________________________________________________________________ Traits make their return in Fallout New Vegas, and while similar to perks, they have two major differences: 1. Traits are chosen at the very start of the game, during your character build. Your character's traits will remain with you after finalizing your character build. 2. Traits have negative effects besides the benefits they can provide. All traits have one rank, and you can either choose none, one or a maximum of two. This section analyses all available traits and gives you some advice on which to pick. BUILT TO DESTROY Positive effects: +3% chance for all weapons to deliver a critical hit. Negative effects: +15% faster condition decay for all weapons. This trait is best taken if you want to maximize your combat potential, and if you like to rely on luck. The downside is a fairly big one: All your weapons will last about 1/6th less long than they normally would, which brings a lot of costs along. Should you pick this trait, be sure to quickly invest in your Repair skill early on. I personally wouldn't recommend this trait. FAST SHOT Positive effects: +20% firing rate with Guns and Energy Weapons. Negative effects: -20% accuracy with Guns and Energy Weapons. A typical specialisation trait, forcing you to choose between a faster firing rate at the cost of accuracy. Its counterpart is the Trigger Discipline trait. FOUR EYES Positive effects: +1 PER when wearing any type of glasses. Negative effects: -1 PER when not wearing glasses. To be honest, this one's quite awful. It reduces your characters natural PER by 1 point, and increases the bonus you get from glasses by 1 point (making +2). This means that when taking perks, you'll actually need one ADDITIONAL point of Perception to be allowed to select the perk. Friend of the Nigh, for example, will now require 7 PER instead of 6 PER. This Trait is therefore garbage. GOOD NATURED Positive effects: +5 points in Barter, Medicine, Repair, Science and Speech. Negative effects: -5 points in Energy Weapons, Explosives, Guns, Melee Weapons and Unarmed.

A specialisation in skill sets, laying focus on negotiation skills and problem solving skills, while deteriorating weapon skills. Depending on how you'd like to play the game early on, this can actually be a decent pick, but remember that it'll be more difficult to eventually create a balanced all-round (nearly) maxed character build. HEAVY HANDED Positive effects: Melee and unarmed attacks do more damage. Negative effects: Melee and unarmed attacks do less critical damage. Only important for characters who'll focus on being a melee and/or unarmed fighter, this trait increases the damage you do with each regular hit, but it reduces the damage that your critical hits do. If you don't like to rely on luck all too much, this is a great trait to boost your melee/unarmed damage with. KAMIKAZE Positive effects: Grants you a extra whopping of +10 Action Points. Negative effects: -2 Damage Treshold. Arguably one of the best traits, this increases your V.A.T.S. with 10 AP! Since perks such as Grim Reaper's Sprint have been dumbed down, AP has become more important, and if you find that you're using V.A.T.S. quite often, you simply can't let this one slip away. The -2 DT is neglectible, and a good armor will more than make up for it soon enough. LOOSE CANNON Positive effects: +30% faster speed with throwing weapons. Negative effects: -25% range with throwing weapons. This allows you to throw faster, but also less far with throwing weapons. It's one of those traits that makes you wonder how the development went: "Hmm, hey guys we only have 9 traits, shouldn't we, like, make 10? Boss: "Yeah, ten's a nice number, what do you think?" Fat Joe: "Hey, um, why don't we, like, reduce the range of throwing weapons. Oh, and um .., we'll just increase the speed!" Boss: "Do it, the game's deadline is in two months." It *can* have its uses, though. If you like to use grenades and/or dynamite in small corridors, then range isn't a big issue, but throwing one faster could save your hide. SMALL FRAME Positive effects: +1 AGL. Negative effects: Your legs are more easily crippled. Well, if you're a stats maximizer, this one's for you! It does require you to be more careful around explosives, mines, grenades and the like. You'll want to invest more money in Doctor Bags and Stimpaks than you'd normally would, but combined with a slight increase in your Medicine Skill, this can be a very decent trait. TRIGGER DISCIPLINE

Positive effects: -20% firing rate with Guns and Energy Weapons. Negative effects: +20% accuracy with Guns and Energy Weapons. The counterpart of the Fast Shot trait, this one reduces your firing rate for an increase in accuracy. If you're not into brutal characters with machine guns and plasma rifles, but more a sniper kind of person, this could be a decent choice for you. WILD WASTELAND Positive effects: Adds some (random) events and (unique) weapons. Negative effects: Removes some (random) events and (unique) weapons. This Perk makes the game more 'Wacky'. A notable change appears to be the removal of the Gauss Rifle, being replaced by an Alien Blaster. It's an attempt to 'add' replay value. _____________________________________________________________________ 5.5 Derived Statistics [STA-5] _____________________________________________________________________ ACTION POINTS (AP) AP Costs: 1.

Health is obviously essential - lose it all and you'll die. Endurance is of direct relevance to your health as the table on the left shows. Enemies have health too, but the precise values are not shown in-game. You can refer to the enemy encyclopedia section of this Guide to find the Max HP values of your enemies. You can use the Health Bars in-game to get a good estimate of how much an enemy is weakened. The table below shows the difference between body parts of a regular enemy and your own body parts. ____________ NPC HEALTH: o Head Shots often means double damage. =-=-=-=-=-=20% o The %'s in the table to the left are 60% estimates of how much health a 25% specific body part resembles.

MOVEMENT SPEED Three factors determine how fast you're able to move around: 1. How much weight you're holding. If you hold more than your Maximum Carry Weight your encumbrance will not like it, and you'll walk around very slowly. Repair some weapons/armor and dump items you no longer need. 2. Equipped Armor. The heavier your armor, the slower you move around. 3. Unarmed/Armed makes a difference: You walk slower if you have a two-handed weapon equipped, but no penalties are given for one-handed weapons.
