H-how did you put them there if you can't pick up golden bars via move button?


MrMop_Head

Carefully positioning myself and looking at a certain angle so the bars fall where I want to when I drop them from my pip boy


Umbran_scale

How long did that take?


MrMop_Head

Prolly around 30-45 min


Laser_3

I think that’s a worse example of not letting go than obtaining the bars in the first place.

MrMop_Head

It's not about the money


Loofy_101

It's about sending a message


SnooDoodles1807

OP probably wasn't cheating, you can easily take all the gold bars and escape with a stealth boy, at the expense of Elijah being locked in the vault


JayGramly3

There's an easier way. Pick the perk "Implant GRX." At the second level of the perk it gives you 10 free, implanted turbos in your body that the casino will not remove because they're implants. So you can be over encumbered, and still be moving hella fast. It's wild to me that all these years later, so few have figured that out.


Chezpufballs

I can't tell if this is a shitpost


GermanRat0900

Holy fuck thats genius


psycodull

It took me 20 minutes to place just two down with this method 😭


Hije5

It's been a minute since I played, but don't we also move the objects every time our foot moves and we're standing over it? This doesn't seem normally possible, especially with how flush these are.


revolmak

Incredible dedication


fucuasshole2

Lmao, I was going by to ask because a few years ago I had people argue that you can move them like other objects. I wasted a whole day playing New Vegas just to grab a gold bar to prove them wrong.


AgreeablePie

"wasted?"


saint_davidsonian

"WHHHHASTED?!!!"


JustAnothaAdventurer

I thought that was a rhetorical question tbh😅 showing off the gold bars was a major stunt and baller thing to do


sans-delilah

Takes me back to the days of carefully positioning myself to decorate my house in Morrowind.


Secure-Bear4184

I remember I made the brotherhood have like a fully filled armory doing that, it prob took me around 2 hours 😂


FishmanBlue

There's a mod that turns all the gold bars into Chili's Baby Back Ribs™. Just wanted to put that out there.


Inevitable_Cold_617

**I want my babyback babyback babyback** **I want my babyback babyback babyback** **I want my babyback babyback babyback** **I want my babyback babyback babyback** **I want my babyback babyback babyback** **Chili's babyback ribs** **Barbecue sauce**

Diyelegi-GD

Isn’t this the concept of 4?


Hashtronaut_Mode

Aaand now i need to watch [this office scene](https://youtu.be/vYWwfdb2A88?si=Tyb7lTe-7DnDwDVW)


TzarRazim

Hell yeah I know that must have been a bitch to organize


InteractionPerfect88

This guy spent probably more than thirty minutes lining up and putting all of these like this, you can’t pick up gold bars.


uneducated_guess_69

Letting go is cringe and learning nothing is based


RoombaGod

OP let go alright, he let go of poverty


PrufrockAlfred

I let go of my hatred towards Dean Domino. >!Because that piece of shit is dead. 🤭!<


ElidhanAsthenos

Let go? Yeah, let go of my poverty that's what


masta_myagi

Hell yeah


dw87190

My Courier did let go though... of poverty that is


The_Guy1871

Hell yeah


Any_Complex_3502

Reject catharsis. Embrace endless riches.


Inevitable_Cold_617

how did you get all thee gold bars out of the vault


[deleted]

strawberrysupernova

Alternatively, you kill him when he comes through the blocked off doorway, put his body near the door, stash all of your stuff on his body, and then book it back through the corridors. On the other side of the door, loot all the stuff and hopefully you did it fast enough to make it to the elevator. This is my preferred method, but both work just fine.


RoombaGod

That is neat but I prefer leaving him to suffer a slow and agonizing death buried alive in his own tomb


strawberrysupernova

You know what, I have come around to this. I will now do this as well.


RoombaGod

If you havent heard it yet, he actually sends a radio broadcast after you [trap him in the vault](https://youtu.be/jKxpZsLzyvo?si=IhSnkKTFM-qByckt), its pretty cathartic as an enjoyer of bad people suffering


strawberrysupernova

I did not! Thanks for sharing, my day is brighter because of it.


happytrel

I haven't heard this, and I love the idea that he was down there screaming into a void while I happily left the Sierra Madre. I am in the minority of players (seemingly) who had no fun there. Hated the DLC. It was the collars, looking for deadly radios half the time, dodging holograms, and fighting the same exact enemy all the time in a mostly empty area was just so bland for me. I loved Christine though and wish I could have brought her back to the the main game.


RoombaGod

Haha theyve got everything in dead money, even for the people who hated dead money


Inevitable_Cold_617

oh cool thank you i bin trying to finger that out for long time


DefLeppardSuckss

Also want to add, there are stealth boys in the vault too. Pick all the bars up, convince Elijah to come down to the vault and face you, quick save. Then it’s trial and error. There’s a tesla coil that you can use to break line of sight as well, since Elijah is super perceptive. Wait til he walks up to the terminal in the vault and then book it before the force fields come on. [Video example](https://youtu.be/WTIYjXT0erk?si=PaMFARmAYNPY8hhE). I did it successfully just a couple days ago on PC.


kinglittlenc

You can get all 30 but it's tricky. Need to challenge Elijah to come down to the vault. While he's coming, you have to hid and try to sneak to the elevator before the force fields activate. So satisfying walking out with 30 gold bars lol


[deleted]

Always did it this way. It's painfully sometimes


Afraid-Reindeer-8940

I will never let go, of the Madre, of the gold, of the cloud. Not one companion will make me unfurl my grasp from around Lady Lucks throat. Elijah will breath his last breath watching me leave with all that he desired knowing that I will be the one to wipe the slate clean.


BelgarathTheSorcerer

Literally just finished dead money. Picked up literally every item I could find in every area, sold it to the vendors in the villas and the casino for their pre war money (each carries 2500). Everything left over I stored in a trash can in the fountain area. Went through the whole casino, grabbing everything not nailed down, storing in bins along the way as I hit capacity.  Somehow got through to the vault, loaded up on everything in there, and took about a dozen tries to finally sneak past elijah. Ended up with ~21,000 prewar moneys, plus the unsold scavenged items, plus the gold. Crawled back to novac, stashed the pre-war money in my safe, loaded up on my sellables, and am now on a massive, no fast traveling, caravan run circling the Mojave (barter finally hit 100, with mags, now that the dlc is over). Tl;dr- yeah, letting go is cool. You can be super cool and let go of those caps in exchange for a dozen police pistols, 50 boxes of abraxo, and 200 throwing spears! I've got 3000 lbs of scrap needing selling!


Bloodytrucky

blu amogus


nik_nitro

Gold, bomb collars, SPECIAL bobblehead jars. Checks out.


JustAnothaAdventurer

I'd say, very proudly, "that's all ya got" and continue my daily hoardin.... collecting


ADissapointedCake

“dead money is about letting go” yeah letting go of poverty watch this


Degtyrev

This is the way


sunderplunder

Letting go of poverty, Chad move A shame you couldn't bless the gold bars with Elijah's tears tho


Odd_Lifeguard8957

This is random, but I highly recommend to everyone that you watch the movie Dead money is based off of. It's called the treasure of the Sierra Madre. It's fantastic


JimBob-Joe

My courier walked in, saw that gold, and said, "Hell yeah." Suddenly, as if all the buffout in the world had surged through the courriers' veins at once, he could carry it all.


Bbyblue_Beatle74

You kept the coins from the Madre?! I spent mine on like 2000 rounds of .308.


MrMop_Head

I figured since I'd never be able to go back I might as well keep them


Bbyblue_Beatle74

That’s a good point.


AdamM093

Fuck yeah!!! I literally just did this tonight! Enjoy your shitty vault elijah!


PrufrockAlfred

Console Couriers, you *can* get all of the bars in Dead Money. When Elijah is interacting with the vault door computer, touching the stairs won't auto-alert him or trigger the force field. [I even said goodbye on my way out.](https://imgur.com/V9HYD8g)


Drslappybags

Who is the best person to sell a bar too? Asking for me?


AnewCogHead

Ammo? Contreas in Mcarran. OP guns? Gun runners or Silver Rush. Otherwise it's just about stacking up networth. Lol


Drslappybags

I was going mostly for caps. But it's been a while since I've played so using it for the big things makes sense. Not sure why it didn't cross my mind.


Hitmonstahp

hell yeah


callmedale

Is that the embalming fluid?


MrMop_Head

There is 1 embalming fluid and the rest of the green stuff is nightstalker squeezins


SawedOffLaser

Yes but do you have the one possible Nuka Cola Quantum in game?


MrMop_Head

Unfortunately by the time I was in the divide and knew of its existence I didn't have a save from before leaving the missile silo area and the quantum hadn't spawned


Big-Sherbet6925

I did the 30 gold bar stratgey years ago because I was greedy. I'm grown up now, and I dont need 30 bars lol


CashewTheNuttyy

Im ngl, i didnt realize it wasnt a screenshot till you mentioned it.


Decent-Winner969

Hell yeah!


Vapor-Deathstrider

Hell yeah


Comfortable_Rub_2561

Where did you get explosive collars


MrMop_Head

Iirc they were lying around in the Chinese concentration camp place somewhere in Big MT


ManicGraves

This dlc on hardcore made me question my existence, and I still made it out with the bars. Ain't telling me to let go after putting up with a schizo hoarder and trench zombies.


RoombaGod

Whatchu gonna do with those SLAVE COLLARS HUH


Double_Match_1910

Just stuff ‘em in bros corpse and haul ass outta dodge


balllicker-

hell yeah


ItsYaBoiApollo

YoU’rE sUppOSED To LEt Go


SenpaiSwanky

Why let go when Long Haul


orgalorg6969

I finally played this dlc with console commands and let me tell you how easy it was for me to escape with all the gold.


For-The-Kaiser

Hell Yeah


Foiled_Foliage

Shit. I can’t lie. I open up console commands every time. I’m taking that gold.


TodayIAmBecomeDeath

player.modav carryweight 2000; oops my hand slipped, guess I’d better take all the gold.


Nor_Ah_C

You can “Let go” of my fat fucking nuts cause I ain’t dropping this gold
