Attention All Newer Players
You want to get tougher, right? You know you need to get more skilled in combat, so here is a list of challenges you should handle. Each player starts this skill journey at a different place. Some guys have trouble beating the Black Claw scorpions, but everyone should press on! Start where you want, and keep at it until you can solo it with authority. Then step up to the next one. Think of this as self-imposed training. When you're ready to begin, solo these in Real-Time mode (listed here in suggested order of difficulty):
- The first quest, A Tent in the Wasteland
- The Black Claw Scorpions quest in Junktown
- Smoke Out the Ant Lair in San Francisco
- Pest Control job from Captain Joe Kelly in Hub
- The quest to Kill the Basement Rats at Cathedral
- The Dogs of L.A. job in New Adytum, Boneyard
- Abandoned Homestead
- Robots in Toxic Caves up near Klamath
- Explore the Stranded Ship quest in Klamath
- The Rail Line Gang quest in Shady Sands
- Raiders and Highwaymen in random Group Encounters
- Mercenaries in Random caves
- Vault 15
- Hostiles in the New Reno sewers
- The robots and radiation at the Glow
- The robots inside Sierra Army Depot
- Farming NCR Army for Combat Armor Mark II in RT mode
- Farming Bounty Hunters, like in zone 10:26
- Farming Enclave Patrols for Gatling Lasers
- The Gun Runners Caravan Package quest
- The Robots in the Military Bunker Special Encounter (rare to find)
- Ares Rocket Silo Outside
- Beating the Slags at New Reno to hit the special locker there
- Surviving Caravans to San Francisco (Note: there are other Caravan Encounters too)
- Ares Rocket Silo Inside
- The Warehouse in Boneyard
- Dayglow WARNING: The PvP spot - full loot-drop enabled here!
You're doing very well once you beat the GR mutie cave quest, but you're not done yet! Expect a tough time at Ares Rocket Silo. And everyone dies solo'ing Warehouse a lot - just keep trying. You'll get it. If anyone can do it, then so can you!
For tougher challenges, bring your better gear, crafted with bonus stats. Remember, this list is all PvE. The real challenge is PvP, but climbing this PvE staircase might help get you there.
