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
- Pest Control for Captain Joe Kelly in Hub
- The Black Claw Scorpions quest in Junktown
- Smoke Out the Ant Lair in San Francisco
- More rat problems for Scout Captain Lex in Junktown
- To Squash a Spider
- Clearing the farm of all hostiles to Restore Hope to a Sad Farmer
- 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
- Breakwater Farms
- Bounties for Scout Captain Lex in Junktown
- The Rail Line Gang quest in Shady Sands
- Explore the Stranded Ship quest in Klamath
- Raiders and Highwaymen in random Group Encounters
- Find William's Daughter
- NCR Raiders on easy
- Mercenaries in Random caves
- Sun Kill Moon
- Vault 15
- Gecko Sanctuary
- Woodland Fields (But be very careful about Vorpal Rats!)
- Hostiles in the New Reno sewers
- The City of Angels floater quest (mainly it's the crazy poison!)
- The robots and radiation at the Glow WARNING: This is a PvP spot with "Full Loot-Drop" enabled!
- 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
- Farming Master's Elite Crew
- The Robots in the Military Bunker Special Encounter (rare to find)
- Zombie Invasion from Junktown (easier with In Your Face!)
- Ares Rocket Silo Outside, on Surface Level
- Beating the Slags at New Reno to hit the special locker there
- Surviving Caravans to San Francisco (there are other Caravan Encounters too)
- The Warehouse in Boneyard
- West Side Freeway
- Ares Rocket Silo Inside the 4-Level Silo
- Dayglow WARNING: This is a PvP spot with "Full Loot-Drop" enabled!
- Sky Tower
- Vault 4
- Shooting Down an Enclave Vertibird (this is considered by most people to be a pointless waste of ammo)
- The Winston Family Mansion (this is considered by most people to be a pointless waste of ammo)
- Dead Horse Bay (this is considered by most people to be a pointless waste of ammo)
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.
Unsorted, to be Added to this List

- The various Telltales
