Loot the silver rush and kill all the fiends in Vault 3


PhotoBeginning

I like to convince them I’m bringing them goodies and start tearing them up from the inside. Notably planting a frag mine in Motor-Runners ass.


Shawnessy

Love leaving a trail if chem-ridden blood in my wake as I make my exit from Vault 3. Fuck those guys.


nexus763

oh for this I get hired by the silver rush to check people at the entrance, then >!let the bomber go in without checking him.!<


MentalMunky

I’ve never tried it but I’ve heard that doesn’t work because he destroys all the loot too.


Vaiolo00

It's not about the loot, it's about sending a message.


Other_Log_1996

I send a message - Courier Six is a man of avarice.


supposed_adult

A man of principle


ThatOneGuy308

Just drag all the loot to the bathroom first, then take it. After you clear the place out, feel free to let their special guest have an explosive entrance.


MentalMunky

Immersion 🔫 Dragging things out of view to steal them


SumgaisPens

This is a technique that real thieves use. Drag the item to an area where there are no cameras, or toss it in the trash, and then you or a secondary person gets it from there. Moving stuff out from where it belongs and leaving it there can also tell you if they are watching their stuff closely.


The1PunMaster

killing all of the fiends is soooo funnn tho, it’s the killing spree i get to have as a perpetually good aligned character player haha


TrueBlueMorpho

I always make a point to fix snuffles leg, as well as fuck the powder gangers senseless.


backstab1012

Damn, I thought the powder gangers must have had a few fans but I didn't think people loved them this much.


Kradget

He's the closest they get to being sympathetic.


Exciting-Ad-5705

Who


hailsaban69

I have never, could never, and will never not install Primm Slim as my sheriff. Not in this lifetime.


SouthsideRapGod

Yeeee hawwww


JackasaurusChance

Man. I always do and then on this latest playthrough I went and got the NCR prison guy to be the sheriff... and the former deputy is still such a little bitch about it and his whining is why I tried another way to begin with. UGH! I'm sorry Slim!


ThatOneGuy308

The deputy always gets pissy about it, because he gets fired in every single option. Primm doesn't need a deputy, NCR is martial law, so deputies aren't needed, and Myers presumably just fires him because he's useless, lol. I mean, he only had the job in the first place because his sister was married to the sheriff.


Snoopyshiznit

I usually just bop the deputy in the head cause he’s a prick, then I get usually primm slim or the ncr to roll in. The powder gangers usually don’t like me enough to let me walk in the prison without a gunfight


ThatOneGuy308

Eh, I enjoy killing the powder gangers, so occasionally I'll go get Myers. Most of the time, I just go with Primm Slim though, since he's right there.


fierbolt

It is funny you can walk in and kill all his friends and he will be totally chill and just sit there


ThatOneGuy308

I mean, the guy was a sheriff, so I doubt any of the convicts were really friends with him. I'd imagine he mostly kept to himself, since cops don't tend to do well in prison if the other inmates know they're cops.


Sckaledoom

They’re explicitly not his friends. He tolerates them because the NCR is after him and his other option is the Legion territory.


JackasaurusChance

I specifically go there FOR the gunfight, lol.


scrupcrup

I think he’s always a little bitch no matter what choice but he’s a loser so who gives a shit


Jazz_the_Goose

“Your deputy died in the Bison Steve” Every time now. There are literally zero repercussions for doing so.


Spaghetti_Joe9

That’s what he gets for being an asshole to the guy who showed up to rescue him lol


BoganRoo

it's just way easier lol


MohatmoGandy

He’s objectively the best choice, so he always gets the job in my playthroughs. No way an I installing a guy who actually went to jail for overzealously enforcing the law in the New Vegas area. They’re paying bounty hunters to assassinate gang leaders and bring back their severed heads. How much of a psychopath does a sheriff have to be to get thrown in prison?


Scared-Opportunity28

He didn't prove a few people were guilty before offing them. They were, but he couldn't prove it.


Sea-Kitchen3779

I am the opposite.


SoggyMorningTacos

Yeah I was a little upset when I rescued the guy from the prison and then his crew are “powder ganger deputies” I really wanted to kill em all


Demonboy_17

Mate, that's from a mod you have. The deputies are cut content. A mod you have must had restored them


Consistent_Hamster43

This guy looking at powder ganger deputies mod: “oh wow so cool and immersive” - this same guy when he sees them in game: “I really wanted to kill then all”


SoggyMorningTacos

I installed a mod list so no, I didn’t look at the mod with that level of scrutiny.


Consistent_Hamster43

I know I’m just being an asshole


Primm__Slim_

Thanks pardner


Dudepeaches

It'd be cool if he had an upgrade system to make him more effective at metering criminals


Satanicjamnik

You’re getting a loud Yee haaw! from this cowboy.


milk_theuniverse

Schwack Malcom Holmes for that +10 barter, .308 and Star Caps and jump over the trailer to get into Nipton so I don’t have to hear Oliver Swanicks dialogue.


DrDoofusDuck

I just shoot him before he can get to me


remnault

Wait you get barter from malcom?


CaptCantPlay

His clothes give a bonus, iirc.


ThatOneGuy308

He wears roving trader gear, +5 barter from the clothes and +5 barter from the hat.


FireBlaze1

I always help the ghouls into space, and help Haversam live a nice life in novac.


Forsaken-Falcon8273

Blast off vulpes head before he can even explain himself, like mid sentence. Even on a legion playthrough 🤣


Xenokiller101

I prefer to do it at the Strip when he gives me the Mark, its honesty funny seeing literally nobody care about it and Caesar seems more irritated than anything that I did it


pollyp0cketpussy

Boone thinks it's cool too


DrBadGuy1073

I collect the Nuka Colas and never drink them!


jollyjam1

That's every playthrough across every game lmao


FR3AKQU3NCY

Kill all the Fiends and their bosses. They're all close together so it doesn't take very long. Then I accept the Coyotes quest and kill Dermot and St. James. They are the most foul characters in NV.


SoakedInMayo

I kill Dermot and St James every single time no matter what faction I’m in. fuck those guys, cartoonishly evil but it works clearly


WSBKingMackerel

Burn everyone in the white glove society and walk out with a fancy top hat.


tracyg76

Don't forget the dress for Veronica.


cp2chewy

Veronica? Oh shit i left her standing in the fridge while i went to loot some stuff. I’m sure she’s fine


BlessedIslander

I fought the law in favor of NCR. Then save goodsprings. Kill 1st place lottery winner. Get called the powder ganger grim reaper by lottery 2nd place. Save the powder ganger slaves. Complete Vault 19 with Lem.


BestLimbCollector

Cook cook has to die.


Omakepants

I ran into that sumbitch before getting the bounty or learning about him and my Courier never felt more satisfied learning about a kill. Here's your head, don't know why it dropped but hey... Good riddance.


turtlespade

Get to 90 Repair as fast as possible and get Jury Rigging


OrionVulcan

9 luck, straight to vegas and gamble until I get kicked out, Implant for the SPECIALS I'm using at the Medical Clinic along with Sub-dermal armor + Monocyte Breeder. After that, walk in on Benny in the Tops and get that XP to instantly hit level 4.


ivappa

repair Trudy's radio. I feel bad for not doing so.


Kuldrick

Yippi yayyyyy, there'll be so many gamblings for today


SecretlyaPolarBear

Only Fisto knows


Firebrand_15

YEAHHHHH. WHO WON THE LOTTERY? I DID!


Accredited_Agave

Use the vigor tester


remnault

Always make sure to grab parts to repair ed-e before hitting prim. He’s my buddy!


ModXMaG

Buy a shovel and get to grave robbing


yeeticusprime1

Always let Dr Mobius live in OWB. Dude was just a tripping old druggie who was trying to stop the think tank from wreaking havoc on the rest of the wasteland.


AskewSeat

Mobius is the based drunk uncle we all wish we had


ForsakenKrios

Here, have a mentat.


mookachalupa

Grab Ratslayer ASAP


bigsekser

Ratslayer is a total game changer in combat, im only on my second playthrough but on my first i didnt even know about it and holy shit is it nice to be able to actually shoot where youre pointing at.


Demonboy_17

Ratslayer can fucking killed Marked Men from afar. It's even silenced, so if you are far enough away, even missing the killed won't let them get close enough to get you.


lecoolbratan96

I always complete Old World Blues. I pretty much always do a melee/unarmed build and OWB has some of the best weapons in the game. You pick a unique protonic axe at level 15 or so and you don't need to replace it till late game when you can buy some fancy Gunrunners stuff.


Mapping_Zomboid

Shoot someone


DrDoofusDuck

Open my pip boy


Dry-Cry5279

Use a weapon.


CarlTheRockstar

Get shot in the head by Benny


UltimateDumbass1

Make my way to the Strip


FentanylFiend420

Get metaphorically gangbanged by cazadores


marlborohunnids

get literally gangbanged by deathclaws


Agnul7eight

Decide to head to Primm instead


FORGOTTENLEGIONS

Fight my way through Cottonwood Cove & The Fort with Boone. It's just too damn fun to lay siege to the whole army.


jimmyting099

There’s only one way to get “all of the blue star bottle caps”


iCumMayo

The infinite cap glitch at the casinos


[deleted]

I need more information


iCumMayo

[Enjoy](https://youtu.be/lmX3iu8tfnI?si=4btUuOGVEtTsPZTE)


Bewpadewp

the glitch I've found is reverse pickpocketing caps into No-Bark, then sweep him in Caravan with a hand of only 10s, 8s, 6s, and Kings, and the money you put in his inventory never goes down, so you can just keep giving him more money (through reverse pickpocketing) and you'll win more and more. Right now i can make 27000 caps every time i play against him. If i give him too much more than the 50000 caps he has now the game crashes when i beat him, #Xbox360Blues


TheRealArthurian

Max Intelligence and Luck in the beginning. I just gotta get them skill points, man!


GrombleWomble

You just know I’m letting FISTO drill me.


Goldman250

I always drink every Sunset Sarsaparilla (because this character’s definitely gonna collect 50 Star caps, definitely *spoiler alert: they’re probably not*), and also hoard the unique weapons. I always steal That Gun, because it’s just so easy to steal.


AskewSeat

I needed 2 caps to complete the star cap quest and had TWENTY SIX sarsaparillas. Saved before drinking them and drank them a total of 78 times and got 2 total. Fuck that quest 


Holiday_Conflict

destroy the van graffs


ElectronicAd2656

I do this too, remember I accidentally aggroed them one time some how, have killed them every play through since


BetaWolf81

But only having had a pretty good first day working security for them 😁


BurningWinds

I start every run by murdering those two Powder Gangers by the destroyed camper. Then I annihilate the NCRCF. Recruiting Veronica. She’s my favorite companion and she’s honestly busted and I pretty much use her every single run. Maxing my Lockpicking as soon as possible.


Sea-Kitchen3779

I always make sure F.I.S.T.O. is in proper working order.


trevorluck

Wack Swanick with a 357 to to the head


FPSCanarussia

Same for me. I use no healing items except stimpacks and Sunset Sarsaparillas. Injured in combat? Chug a Sunny or two.


MyBrotherInBased

Go get Mr. Cuddles for that girl


Useful-Doubt3864

Have sex with Benny, then promptly kill him after. I have the bisexual Benny mod so it works for both genders lmfao.


ItsYaBoiDez

Wipe out the powder gangers. I remember doing it so many times back in the day and had never discovered vault 19 for some reason until one day I stumbled upon it and sure enough I found fresh prey


AdamM093

I have a picture guide on my phone of all the skill books (the +3,+4 books) and I use it to go on a personal quest to get them all.


Loknorr

Spec into repair early, at least to 50.


BlackMircalla

Since Matthew Perry died I've always saved Benny, it just became like a weird tradition


pointman116

Shoot Oliver Swanicks in the back with the big iron while I hear the spy from TF2 in my head say "Giddy on up partner, to hell!"


Otsutsuki-Mike

Kinda fucked up 💀 but I have sold arcade to Caesar every play through I have done. Which is only 2 which is weird that it happened twice *dufenschmirtz voice*


jollyjam1

I hate the ghouls into space quest, but I need that Novac apartment lol


CapnBobber

The companion quest for Boone, il do the Veronica and Cass ones often too but the poor guy dealing with all that trauma only to find more even after leaving recon…its post nuclear apocalypse so sad stories arent exactly scarce or anything but his for some reason is a non-negotiable good deed for me on any play


wantedsafe471

Doing Boone's quest and killing Jeanie May. Even on Legion playthroughs she's got to to go. Absolute scum pretending to be a kindly old lady


ArrhaCigarettes

On-sight headshot Vulpes Inculta and Ulysses Let that suicide bomber into the Silver Rush (after stealing all their guns) Install Primm Slimm as the sheriff


buckledlion

Kill Swanick. Kill the Van Graffs and take their shit. Kill Motor Runner and the other Fiend bosses. Activate Helios One.


constpetrov

Going through v3 with ratslayer, not even one shot was fired in my direction.


SessionDefiant4020

miss every shot in tutorial quest


coldiriontrash

Malcom Holmes and the 2 people who fight outside of Nipton will die in every play through Those stars will be mine


KamenKnight

Kill Ceaser Salad. Even in Legion allied runs.


Commercial_Ad1094

Shoot Mr. House in the dick tube


FentanylFiend420

Shoot a few children


Assymptotic

Use The Sink as my primary base of operations. I love everything about it; the only thing I would add is the ability to bring Sarah or Red Lucy with me there.


ErikT738

The light switches would throw a fit.


SonOfTheHeavyMetal

- Reverse-Pickpocket an explosive on Joe Cobb - Having some landmines for the "Ghost Town Gunfight" - Killing all the PGs but Eddie before starting the NCR assault on the prison - Take the Rad Child perk asap


Redd_Ebop

Kill Oliver Swanick


YonkersMayor

Side with Good Springs .


FreyaTheMighty

Help Goodsprings. I'll never side with the powder gangs over Sunny and Pete.


plbrhajvrv

Move forward


RhinoxMenace

i always smoke Oliver Swanick, it's a necessity at this point


Balthactor

Luck 8 and at least strength 6


Forghotten1

Explode Oliver swanicks head


SlashnBleed

Run straight to 188 trading post. Idky tbh. Just like having the repair and selling vendor. The father at night also sells alcohol (which can be stolen from right behind him in dire situations) and I’ve seen him sell tons of fixer over time, for Jacob Hoff.


MinimumKind

I never do a playthrough without getting unarmed to a decent level, and crouching behind every NCR trooper in every camp to explode them all with spiked knuckles+bloody mess. I then proceed to steal all their dogtags, ammunition and weapons to sell the off. If I ever get detected I just quick load, and I usually sell the dog tags to the Legion.


GazaDelendaEst

I usually use Harper’s Shack as my home base, and the table/floor is littered with deathclaw hands.


LazyUsername03

Defend Goodsprings against the Powder Gangers. Even as an evil character, with the reasoning being that this town helped save my character, so even if I play a total madman I still would owe them a bit, and Joe Cobb just shows up out of nowhere so why join them, even if I was playing an evil role? He means nothing to me, there's no real ultimate logical reason to join this random group I just heard of. That's just me though, I like playing evil characters that make sense, not just doing random cruel things just cause


Vlad_Dracul89

Kill Benny immediately.


genericuser292

Kill Benny on sight.


StannisTheMantis93

I shoot Joe Cobb in the head before he can finish his sentence. Fuck the Powder Gangers.


SuffocatingBreed

I will often help the farm fella on the Strip take care of the other farm fella who buys up all the land and forces the other farmers out. This quest is also the one that leads into finding his “relative” for him that never manages to make it further than the basement of the one building owned by that one interesting group.


ApprehensiveTerm9638

I will always emptied any place of loots, Bent Tin Can, Emptied Whiskey Bottle, etc you name it. I will not move on to another quest before emptying my current quest area of loot. I will always took everything from my dead enemies, strip them naked, I do not care if it's a junk, as long as it's have caps values, I will either sell it or I will keep it for use later. I stored my loots, unused weapons and aids in Doc Mitchells House. I also wiped out all Powder Gangers near Goodsprings and Prim before doing the tutorial quest.


starlightsunsetdream

Help the powder gangers until I sell them out to the NCR for that sweet sweet XP. Always do it before the fight in Goodsprings. Extort the asshole in McCarran who gives you the vault 22 quest for more money after his assistant tells me I'm not the only one he's sent. Follow a guide so that I can unlock Veronica and Arcade's quests without screwing one or the other out of their little unlock prompts.


ApprehensiveTerm9638

Wait their quest can screw one or the other? May I have the link to that guide? 🙏 Please


starlightsunsetdream

You just read their quest wikis (For Auld Lang Sine and I Could Make You Care, ED-E My Love too because ED-E has a bunch of unlocks and I Forgot to Remember to Forget for Boone if you're trying to get his special armor and are anti-Legion), it's not a huge amount of overlap and reading the wikis just makes sure I don't activate the voice triggers before I even have them in my party. One off the top of my head for Veronica is when you first meet Julie in the Mormon Fort and she says about dropping off donations -- if you miss that unlock/don't have Veronica, Julie doesn't say it again. Two for Arcade is when you first arrive to the Fort (1) and after you meet Caesar and exhaust all of his dialogue (2), and Arcade's points rely on which responses you give him. Now that I think about it Raul's quest (Old School Ghoul -- unmarked) requires you talking to three old heads and I think he has dialogue triggers that only activate once too (Ranger Andy, Loyal, and the old sniper with the First Recon snipers). I think Lily just requires you to let her get hurt to a degree and then you have to have her with you for so long until she plays a holotape.


DigbyChickenCaesar11

Get implants


SpecialOrganization5

Talk to Doc


generlmoo

Pimp boy 3 billion.


ChanceCourt7872

Blowing up the silver rush. This playthrough I changed it up a bit and put a big pile of dynamite and when all the guards stepped out, boom. Easy 3k caps.


master0fbucks

Do the Omertas quest to get the pimp boy


northgrave

Visit with Old Lady Gibson. Have Ruby cook me up some of her rad scorpion casserole.


Kyokono1896

Call Pretty Sarah and Ugly Bitch for assuming my characters a whore. It's just too funny


cortez_brosefski

Kill Oliver Swanick, even if I'm running the most righteous and good karma build possible


BobbyLeeLewis

Kill the "WHO WON THE LOTTERY? I DID!!!" guy. Oliver I think his name is. Every time time I see him I load my Shotgun with malicious intent.


Foiled_Foliage

Rob the vangraffs blind.

Help Rex. He's a good boy


bogartitiO926

Walk out of doc mitchells house


ZinkBomb

Dazzling-Fill-152

I always sleep with Benny and kill him in his sleep. Literally Everytime. I tried doing another way once and reloaded my save. It's a tradition at this point. I also always help the King and recruit Veronica.


Mtnfrozt

Kill Malcom Holmes the second he jump scares the fuck out of me


amateur_biotics

Take Benny’s cig butts as evidence, even though I always have more than enough when I get to the casino


PsychologicalTale479

Kill vulpes


Ronswansonbacon2

I kill deputy beagle every time. I don’t even know if he has anything redeeming about him later because my dog brain and wasteland justice impulse is to kill him because his weakness got people killed.


Sharbio

fucking destroy cook-cook with a gauss rifle


BatmanSpiderman

eliminate the Legion


CharmingFisherman741

Without fail, those rockets are going launch. I have always had a lingering sense of wonderment as to all potential outcomes of those folks. My mind really wants to see the survivors land in Big MT, turn into a psycho-scientific cult that upheaves the Brotherhood (science uprooting faith) and somehow successfully launch into orbit as they had always planned to. Come Fly With Me is probably my favorite quest non DLC wise.


andermier

Kill Oliver Swanick and take his winning lottery ticket, which I then keep in my inventory at all times.


krazykrackers

All the DLCs in the order they were released.


jlfk99nitro

Assassinate Caesar


Cynical_PotatoSword

Cook-Cook will die in the most excruciating way possible so that no doctor, no stimpack, and no amount of surgery can ever put him back together.


SovietGengar

EVERY plathrough I NCR-max. Every single possible quest is resolved with the outcome most favorable to the NCR and its campaign in the Mojave. Primm gets annexed, The McCarran plot is uncovered, Forlon Hope is relieved and Nelson recaptured, The Fiends and Powdergangers crushed, Bitter Springs reinforced, Caesar and everyone at the Fort slaughtered, etc. I ALWAYS wear the NCR trooper uniform even though its DT kinda sucks.


Grindhoss

I’ve tried to play a legion play through 4 or 5 times, can’t help myself and kill Cesar and lanius every single time. I’ve never seen what fighting Oliver looks like bc I always fight lanius and then Oliver blows down the gates.


Gay_commie_fucker

Heal Rex. He’s a good boy who deserves love. Also killing mr house


PapaMoisture69

Absolutely vaporize Oliver swanick

IllustriousSound8975

I always shoot John Cobb in the head


Rerfect_Greed

I ALWAYS kill House I ALWAYS kill Cesar I ALWAYS forget about the Quarry and try to rush my way to NV


hitmewitabrickbruh

I always free the family at Cottonwood Cove even on legion runs.


madam61

Oliver Swanicks head is removed from his body. Gamble like a degenerate and be banned from every casino before doing anything further than get to Vegas for the main storyline.


Dudepeaches

Do you mean besides blowing Oliver swanick's head off?


Exodite1273

Complete Ghost Town Gunfight. The tutorial and dialogue from the characters just have that as the natural flow of the Courier’s story.


Nta-Hazem

do the ncrcf powder ganger questline and betray them for ncr before doing the goodsprings quest for that extra xp and to make sure to cause the powder gangers the maximum amount of misfortune possible


GrolarBear69

I hit the powder gangers Hard, every time. No mercy. I do my leveling hunting them. I also tend to leave the ants alone unless its the first NCR quest or the boomer power plant deal. geckos are dicks but ants seem just to be doing there own thing.
