Hollow Rock locations:

Find the Hollow Rocks in the following locations. The Hollow Rocks contain various equipment and ammunition.

Switching ammunition

When you have more than one type of ammunition for a weapon, press UP to switch ammo types.

Monorail entry

In Camp McCarran where the monorail directly to the strip is located, you can gain entry to the monorail. Take the long way around and stay as close to the vending machines as possible. Follow the wall around the back way. Make sure the other soldier cannot see you. Crouch and sneak up to this soldier from behind. You may hear the phrase indicating that if you get any closer they will have to shoot you. However, as long as you remain hidden, it may flash "Detected" briefly for a few times. As soon as you are close enough to the door, you can go through it and take a monorail directly to the strip. Be careful when returning to the monorail from the strip; you will probably be shot. However as soon as you enter the monorail it resets, and you can again ride it back to the strip. By using this trick you can bypass many quests, and can skip directly to meeting Mr. House and finding the person who shot you.

Thump-Thump location

Thump-Thump is a grenade launcher that is located where all the ants are found, underneath the solar panels when you help the Boomers.

Kill people without receiving bad karma

To kill people without receiving bad karma, get a large object that you can push or pick up. Drop it next to a standing NPC that is not leaning against a wall, doing push-ups, or sitting. Run against the object and it will damage the NPC without making them hostile or causing you to lose reputation.

Missing explosive skill book

Every Skill has a designated skill book. One seems to be missing. There seems to be only three explosive skill books where there are supposed to be four. This last skill book can be found on the desk in the office of the "Ranger Station Foxtrot". The other three can be found in "Nellis Air Force Base", "Sloan", and "Mojave Outpost".

Infinite magazines

Go to Old Mormon Fort in Freeside, and find Julie Farkes inside the Fort. Choose the dialogue option to help them get medical supplies. Go through the dialogue options to hear one that tells you that she just got a shipment of magazines. Then, choose the "I have some medical supplies to drop off" option. There will then be three options; choose the "Rad-Away" option, as it is the easiest one of the three to find. You only need to leave one thing if you do not care about fame. Every time you give them an item, you will gain more fame. After you give them the supplies, choose the "I'd like to buy medical supplies" option. There are a few aid supplies there that you can get if desired, but they will not regenerate. In the supply list, you can find the magazines. Buy any desired magazines, and then exit. You can then choose the option to give med supplies again. This time you do not need to give them anything; simply choose the "Never mind" option. Go back to "Buy medical supplies", and you can repeat the process for more magazines. You repeat this as many times as desired as long as you choose to drop off supplies first. You can even come back to do it again at a later time. You can get the following magazines: Fix-in' Things (Repair +10), Lad's Life (Survival +10), Meeting People (Speech +10), Programmer's Digest (Science +10), Salesman Weekly (Barter +10), and Today's Physician (Medical -10).

Free repairs

Do the following to repair any item to the player's current repair level without using any caps. You will need the Confirmed Bachelor perk and enough caps to cover the repair cost of the item. When you arrive at the Mohave Outpost to get the pardon for the new sheriff of Primm, during the conversation with Major Knight a Confirmed Bachelor speech option is available. Select it, and whenever you do repairs through him, the item gets repaired to your repair level but you do not lose any caps. Use this with an unlimited caps trick, and your player can have all items at 100% condition.

Chinese Stealth Armor location

In Hoover Dam, go into the offices and find a room with radiation signs around it. In the room there are barrels of goo and stack of crates. Check the crates for the armor. Note: There are two sets, so you can make repairs.

Winning at Caravan

Caravan decks have a minimum of 30 cards that can be purchased from merchants or looted from dead bodies. The goal is to select the cards that will get you between 22 and 26 consistently, while also giving you defensive cards to use against your opponent. First, get the following cards: 10s, 9s, 8s, 7s, 6s, Kings, Jacks, Aces, and two Jokers. The Jacks, Aces and Jokers are defensive plays so use Jacks to remove cards from your opponent. Use Ace and Joker cards to remove all cards of your Ace's suit. For example, an Ace of Spades and a Joker will eliminate all spades from the table. Kings will double whatever they are placed on. First lay down your highest or lowest cards first to start the "base" of your caravan. Note: Don't use 10 + 9 + 8 because it results in 27; or 6 + 7 + 8 because it results in 21 (unless you put your Ace down after the 8 to make it 22). Every play between those are a win. You can get a ton of items and Caps by playing Caravan. Find vendors with lots of Caps and items. Purchase all the items you can afford from them, then challenge them to a few games of Caravan to win back all your money.

Reloading hint

The cases are where the ammo gets filled into on the reloading table. The hull is the outside of the gun. The lead is the metal that makes the actual bullet. The powder is for the ammo, which goes inside of the cases. The primer is the object that is pushed into the bullet in the bottom to close it up on the reloading table.

"Outstanding Orator" trophy hint

When your Speech is at 40, go to Camp Golf near Lake Las Vegas and accept the quest from the sergeant. Agree to O'Hanran's method and convince everyone, with Mags being the last one. After convincing Mags to play nice, accept her method and go to the gun range to help them with their guns (45 skill required). Wait for them to start walking back to their tent, then talk to Razz and ask about squadmates. The speech challenge will be there. It will be easy to unlock the "Outstanding Orator" trophy, as well as experience points in increments of 40. When done, talk to the sergeant to complete the quest or talk to O'Hanran and ask about the squad.

Indiana Jones And The Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull easter egg

Star Wars easter egg

Go to the town of Nipton and walk to the right of the town hall's front entrance to find a burned out building with a pair of burned corpses in front. The view is similar to the scene from Star Wars where Luke Skywalker finds the bodies of his Aunt Beru and Uncle Owen.

Speech glitch

A 20 Speech skill level is required. Speak to the 10 of Spades in Camp McCarren. You may first need to find out about Corporal Betsy's trauma. Start a dialogue with him and choose "I heard about what happened to Corporal Betsy", then "Tell me what happened". The next options will be the Speech Check or "If you were unconscious, how could you have done anything?" Do the Speech Check, and then the other option will be the only one available except "Never mind". After choosing the unconscious option, the Speech Check will be available again, but grayed out. However, you can still keep pressing A, and they will alternate. Even though the Speech Check is grayed out, it still counts as a pass.

Euclid's C-Finder location

Locate the field "gun" for the ARCHIMEDES weapon by entering the Freeside's East Gate and finding the two children chasing each other (not chasing the mutated rat) during daylight. speak to the one possessing what appears to be a toy gun.

1984 easter egg

Say to the book chute that destroying prewar books is destroying culture and it will tell you that if its indoctrination module was installed it would handle you. However, since it is not installed, you will have to indoctrinate yourself and begin with a cage for your head and a bag of molerats. This is a reference to a torture/indoctrination method from George Orwell's 1984.

Wizard Of Oz easter egg

Your character will discover that his brain, spine, and heart have been removed, making him brainless (the scarecrow), heartless (the tin man), and spineless (the cowardly lion).

Monty Python easter egg

Underneath one of the church houses in Camp Searchlight you can find a box of 5 holy hand grenades, an obvious reference to Monty Python and the Holy Grail. WARNING: Camp searchlight is irradiated and you must have the wild wasteland trait.

Free and infinite caps, items, and more

Just like Fallout 3, there is a trading exploit to earn basicallyinfinite amounts of caps, items, repairs and ammunition. Just do the following steps:

Step One
Find any shop-based trader and sell him anything in your inventory that you don't need and complete the transaction. This will increase the amount of money he has.

Step Two
Find something in your inventory that you have duplicates of or something that you and the shop keeper both have. Sell an item or two to the trader so he has two of them.

Step Three
Make sure that the two identical items are of different values once they are in the trader's inventory. The bigger the difference in value, the better.

Step Four
Now purchase the cheaper of the two identical items and complete the transaction, but do not leave the trade session. Look for the item in your inventory. The item should have gone up in value dramatically and should be 100% repaired, even though when you sold the item initially it wasn't! If it isn't 100% repaired for whatever reason, sell the item back to him anyway and repeat steps 3-4, trying a different item if necessary.

Step Five
Now you can sell the same item for a high price and buy it back at a low price until you have drained his money completely. If you want, you can hold onto the item as it will be fully repaired -- simply keep it on the final round which will leave him with a small amount of money. Either sell the item back to him again once he is out of money, or if you are keeping it, sell him something else of high value and he will owe you that amount. The transaction price will go dim and remain at whatever amount of money he has left.

Step Six
Search through the trader's inventory and find stuff you need. Stimpaks, ammo, miscellaneous item, weapons and armor are all good. Eventually the transaction price will light up again and you may owe him a few caps depending on how much of his stuff you added to the deal. Complete the transaction.

Step Seven
Wait three days and he will have new stock and around 650 caps. The longer you wait, the more robust his inventory will become and the more caps he'll have for you to take when you're ready to do this all over again.

Note: Be sure to save while using this method since the game is prone to crashing during the transaction.

Easy caps from Gun Runners

The Gun Runners store on the east side of New Vegas has a locked fence and a couple guard blocking the entrance to the "factory." Pick the lock and the Gun Runners will start firing at you. Take them out and loot their bodies for Combat Armor, Hunting Rifles and Combat Helmets. All of these items are worth money, and each Gun runner has about 1,500-2,000 Caps worth of loot on their person. Enter the building to find more Runners to slay. After doing this, approach the Vend-Tron robot at the Gun Runner shop, who has 8,000 Caps to burn, and sell it your loot. Now, travel far away, wait for three in-game days and return to the area to find the Gun Runners alive and ripe for the "harvest."

Unique Armors

Perform the following tasks to obtain the unique armors:

Gannon Family Tesla Armor
The Gannon Family Tesla Armor is acquired during the personal quest for Arcade Gannon. When doing his quest and gathering all his allies, convince him to stay in Freeside for the duration of the battle. You need a VERY high speech ability -- at least 80 speech. As a reward, he will give you the Gannon Family Tesla Armor, helmet and all. You need power armor training to wear this.

Chinese Stealth Armor
The Chinese stealth armor is located in the Hoover Dam offices. It's in the room with the toxic barrels and green goop. Once you see the room, turn to your left. You should see several wooden crates. Inside one of these crates is two sets of Chinese Stealth Armor. Both weigh 20.00. Unfortunately, the invisibility thing the armor does in Fallout 3, is gone now -- all it does is give you +5 sneak.

T-51b Power Armor
Two sets of these armors a re located near HELIOS 1 . From there, go west towards the cliffs. From the cliffs, turn left and head to a small canyon, which is full of scorpions, that leads to a "Scorpion gulch". There you have 2 options up left or up right. Up left is Brotherhood of Steels camp, but we head up right. When you detect small amounts of radiation you're close. Kill a couple centaurs that are leaching the radiation and you see a possible meteor crater with large amounts of radiation. At the bottom you see two(2) dead Brotherhood of Steel Paladins who wear T-51b Power Armors. Armors are in pretty bad shape, but after repairing them you own possibly best armor of the game.

T-51b Power Armor (Non Faction)
This armor does not have any faction effects and is the only NON-BROTHERHOOD T-51b power armor in the Game. The Deathclaw Promontory is located across the river East of Ranger Station Echo. Note that there is no map marker for this location. Look for a walkway that goes up a mountain right off the shore. You must defeat 20-25 Deathclaws, including 2 Mothers and 1 Alpha male. There are 2 dead prospectors bodies lying on the ground on the far right side of this area. One of them has the T-51b Power armor and a Tri-Beam Laser Rifle and the other has the Remnants Power Armor and a Multiplas Rifle.

Stealing hint

Perform the following steps to successfully steal without getting caught:

Step One
Find an area out of the line of sight of all the surrounding NPC's.

Step Two
Find a good spot to hide in and save your game.

Step Three
Click the right stick while you have selected the item you want to steal, but do not press the A button to steal it.

Step Four
This allows you to safely carry the item to your designated hiding spot.

Step Five
Now crouch and, when it says [HIDDEN], you can steal it without losing reputation, or having an NPC attack you.

You may lose karma so attempt this once to make sure you won't have an undesired karma effect. An excellent place for this trick would be the Van Graff energy weapon shop.You can do this with any of the items on the counter and there is a hiding spot on the back side of the room.

Blade Runner easter egg

The store in Novac has "That Gun," a gun that looks just like Deckard's Gun from Blade Runner. This is also the name of a gun in previous Fallout games.

Fun with Fisto the Sexbot

In Fallout 3 there was a upgraded power fist called "Fisto!" Fisto makes a return in Fallout: New Vegas as a sexbot that you're required to find for the quest "Wang Dang Automatic Tango." In the quest, you find Fisto in cerulean robotics. Once you release him from his tube, he gives you the option to test him out. After completing the side quest to find a sex robot for the silver rush, Fisto will go to the Silver Rush Casino. Inside, next to the roulette table, talk to him and he'll offer his services, but if you reply "No thanks" it will give you ten caps. This can provide an unlimited supply of caps if you're willing to activate the chat over and over again.

CZ57 Avenger location

Head to Devils Throat in the northeast of the map. In the middle of the crater is a truck with a dead prospector isnide, and next to him is the CZ57 Avenger minigun with a pack of ammo. Also, next to the prospector are two or three empty jet inhalers. On his body is a Party Hat, Authority Glasses, Reinforced Combat Armor and some other items. Note: The Party Hat and Authority Glasses are unique apparel items.

Golden boxing gloves location

The Golden Boxing Gloves can be found in the Lucky 38 Casino, at the VIP Bar above the cashier room, which is on the left side of the casino when you enter.

Mercy grenade machine gun location

Head to Dead Wind Cavern, in the middle-south of the map. Inside are tons of Deathclaws, including the Legendary Deathclaw. Go directly to the final section of the cave to where the Legendary Deathclaw is found. There should be a Brotherhood of Steel Paladin lying dead. Next to his body a grenade machine gun (40mm grenade) named "Mercy". The paladin has 40mm grenades and incendiary grenades. Note: Before trying to collect it, recruit two companions and get big guns for yourself and your partner, in addition to several stimpaks.

Mysterious Revolver location

Go to the tops and begin the quest "Talent Pool". Find the guitarist in the middle of nowhere and ask him to join. As a form of payment in the dialogue options he will give you a 44. revolver called "Mysterious Revolver", which makes the short songs you hear with the mysterious stranger when drawn and holstered. Note: This may require Barter skill 45+.

Spacesuit location

Head to the REPCONN rocket factory where the mission "Come Fly With Me" takes place. Go to the basement where Chris goes just before launching the rocket and asking for spare parts. In this room to the left side as you enter is a shelf with an orange suit and a helmet that resembles a fish bowl. Pick them up. When you wear them they look like something out of a 1960's comic book. It gives a good amount of RAD resistance, but has a low DT and breaks easily.

Tesla Cannon Prototype location

Head to the crashed vertibird located at the south of the map, in about the middle. This will require two companions and tons of firepower, or several stealth boys and a high sneak skill. The crash is surrounded by hardened Sentrybots and hardened Mister Gutsies who are hostile towards you. Inside the wreck are some of skeletons and a Tesla Cannon with orange electricity inside (the core is orange). It has an after-effect of damage for awhile after being fired. Test it on the robots or the ghouls from the nearby nuclear crater.

Grease easter egg

On the quest to find "escorts" for the atomic wrangler, you have to find a robot and reprogram it. The robot is called "FISTO". After exiting the building, if you have the Wild Wasteland trait, you will find three women in pink dresses calling themselves the Pink Ladies.

Love & Hate (Knuckles) location hint

In Bonnie Springs, north of Goodsprings (and a bit east), there will be a Viper Gang Leader wielding Love & Hate Knuckles. They are fast and powerful. Note: Some of these Vipers have plasma grenades and grenade rifles (and sometimes the Trail Carbine).

• -After reaching a Speech skill of 50, you can persuade Old Ben to offer his escort services to the local bar. Old Ben is sitting by a fire close to The King headquarters in Freeside.

• -This trick requires a high Speech skill and 8 Intelligence. Go to the Camp McCarran Terminal building inside Camp McCarran. Talk to the guy at the far end of the building, in the left corner. He is the leader and will give you multiple quests. Accept the interrogation quest, then go meet with the woman upstairs to begin the quest. When you get in the room to talk to Sirus, pick the "Intelligence" option first, the "Speech" option next, and then the "Intelligence" option. Any of the three "Intelligence" options work. Then, select the "Speech" option, and cycle through the "Intelligence" options. You will gain 50 XP each time that you cycle through the options.

• -This trick requires a Medicine skill of at least 35. Once your character gains access to the main strip, find Victor outside the Lucky 38 casino. He will tell you that Mr. House wants to meet you. Follow him inside and go up the elevator. Speak with Mr. House (the giant television face that looks like Howard Hughes). Find the dialogue choice pertaining to needing to ask him a few questions. Then, ask "Who exactly are you, Mr. House?", then select "You appear to be a computer, not a man". After that, select the Medicine skill check response, "The lifespan you're claiming is impossible, except for ghouls and super mutants." After that, you will be awarded 35 experience points (or 39 experience points if you have the Swift Learner perk). Repeat as desired.
  
  
• Go to a casino and play roulette to always gain 100 experience points.

Unlimited caps

• Go to a weapons or armor merchant that has two of the same weapon or armor for sale. Purchase the overall most expensive item at the lowest condition. For instance, if he has two Raider Sadist Armors at 35% and 75%, but also has two Flamers at 15% and 7%, then choose the Flamers. Purchase the cheapest of the two items, and then immediately sell it back to the merchant. Purchase it again and sell it back. On the second or third time you sell it and buy it back again, it will appear in you inventory at 100% condition. Sell it back to them, and it will reappear in their inventory at the original low % condition. Buy it again, and it will appear at 100% condition. Repeat this until they run out of money.

• In Guardian Peak you will meet an NCR soldier who is wounded. Through some Speech checks, you can get him to give you his gun for escorting him out of the cave. When you get to the entrance of the cave with him, he will speak and you can continuously ask for his rifle, which he will give you along with ammunition. Note: This is best done after earning the perk that allows for over encumbered fast travel.
