Fallout new vegas guide mauno3/1/2023 ![]() ![]() Drugs like Psycho, Hydra, Mentats - are all very common loot, and weigh nothing at all - meaning you can stock-pile them for quick trades, ensuring you always have some "spare" money on hand. It may not make sense to pick up pencils, empty syringes, and pre-war money, but, it's more you can carry out without weighing yourself down. Number one thing to sell: weightless items. As someone who's played years of Diablo and Elder Scrolls titles - you should know what you're selling, and why. crap not worth selling - and some crap that you should NEVER sell. Know WHAT to sell: Fallout is littered with. Constantly be aware that you cannot buy some things back, like if you sell a unique item, and then the merchant's stock replenishes - and each trip to trade is a big deal, so, always double check what you're selling, to make sure you're getting the best bang for your caps, and not selling too much for free. You almost always want to "break" each merchant you trade with, resulting in them losing all their caps, and you selling enough to where you don't lose any of your own, if possible. You don't want to go in with 150 caps worth of gear, make a 300 cap purchase, leave, and come back later: that's -150 caps, and a wasted opportunity to trade. You'll notice that most merchants all have set numbers of caps, and they replenish - I think - every other day, so, making your trips to merchants is always a big deal. Know how to trade: Like mentioned above, ammo and stims are your most vital items to buy, but, how do you get the best deal, even with low Barter? Why. These are used in practically all the common weapons you find in New Vegas, and are all relatively cheap, even at low Barter. The most common ammo types you should always buy at vendors are these: 9mm, 10mm, 5mm, 5.56mm, and. ![]() If you pick up a weapon like a Minigun, don't blow away all the 5mm rounds - you can also use 5mm rounds for a plethora of weapons, and sell that Minigun for something you actually need. You'll learn which weapons to pick up, and to use as repair fodder, in no time, and which ones you like to use. You may not like that 20 gauge shotgun, and your half-broken 9mm handgun, but, if that's all you've got, you'd better have bullets for them. Ammo for your current weapons are ALWAYS crucial early on. Stims are less common than in Fallout 3, and are life-savers at low levels, and Radaway is usually cheap, and nice to have on hand, especially if you're out of stims, and are relying on food. The only items you should be worried about is your ammo for your current guns and your healing items. Leather Armor with Legion Armor - I think. ![]() For example, fix a Bumper Sword with a Pool Cue. ![]() Also, don't waste money on repairing items - save for "rare" items, and instead invest into the perk Jury Rigger this perk will allow you to simply use lesser "related" items to repair your gear, saving you time scavenging. More than likely, you'll find the "unique" weapons in the game (Dinner Bell - better Hunting Shotgun), and end up using other lesser weapons to keep them in top shape, instead, saving yourself wasted caps. Also, don't take the instant-level perk, or extra XP perks, as you do have a level cap, and these will bite you in the butt later on, when you could have gotten something much more useful.ĭon't buy any items but Stimpacks, Radaway, and bullets for you current weapons: Don't buy a weapon from a merchant, because nine times out of ten, you'll find that exact same weapon off of a body, enemy, or just laying around in a cave. I strongly recommend getting to level 20 or 15 before going to Freeside/New Vegas. The Fallout series is meant to be an experience, and taking in as much as possible, and getting into the world is all part of that experience. If you just try to advance the main quest, you'll be underpowered, under-leveled, and probably not have a good time. Don't just try to advance quests: This leads to not only skipping out on the experience of the game, but also missed experience, easy to find weaponry, side quests, story, and, well, everything else. ![]()
