You start this adventure having ducked a sandstorm from inside a cellar hole under some tent.

Exit the Tent

  • Use the ladder to climb out, and run south to talk to J.D.
  • Ask him if you can travel with them and get the quest to deliver a message. Your first quest!
  • Also talk with Kris, the guy at the watering hole.
  • Get Kris talking about how to obtain water, and get your first 50 xp.
  • Grab the water bag from the ground near the water's edge, and exit this Starting Location.

Start Getting XP

  • Head to Hub but do not enter yet. Use the Town/World button to enter via Old Town.
  • Run south and talk with the sad wife about finding Joseph.
  • Run north and talk with Jacob about a deal with Gunrunners.
  • Enter the building at the east end of the street and note the workbench in there.
  • Exit Old Town and run west through the Market area into the Maltese Falcon.
  • You might have 200 xp now, 150 from entering Hub and 50 from Kris at the starting location.
  • Talk with Mick in the Maltese Falcon and get the Wasteland Band quest. Mick gives you some caps - don't spend them yet - you need them to do his quest.)

Open Pip-Boy (press P twice) and check which quests you have now. It should show four: Far Go Scout, Find Joseph, Gun Runner Delivery, and Wasteland Band. Now let's make some easy xp.

A Humble Beginning

  • Run up the street and find the brahmin pens on the left. Get a shovel from Cleve and agree to shovel poo.
  • Arm your shovel in slot 1 and now you can shovel poo in any cow pen by simply mousing over poo.
  • Check the brahmin pens at Hub's main gate area. Watch for sneaky poo under the fence.
  • At 24 xp per poo, you can get to level 2 pretty fast. Other players know this so poo might be scarce at Hub.
  • Move boxes too. Get this job from the box man near the caravan trailer.
  • Move 10 boxes from the cart into the hut nearby and talk to him again to get paid.

Welcome to Level 2! Don't distribute your Skill Points just yet. That's more poo than most players care to shovel but it helped get you to level 2. Now let's see about those quests.

Your First Perk

  • Go back to the poo man down the street to get paid for whatever poo you shoveled.
  • Exit the city and note some things on the map: a Tent in the Wasteland, and Gun Runners.
  • Head south to Gun Runners but be careful! Boneyard is dangerous. Be ready to quickly exit forced encounters.
  • Enter Gun Runners, run up into the main Gun Runners building and speak with Marshall to get a perk.
  • The Boneyard Guard support perk just boosted your Small Guns skill by 15 points. Nice.
  • Talk with him again to dialogue about one of your quests, the one for Jacob.
  • (Take the easiest dialogue options in this quest to avoid complications.)
  • (Note that merchant at Gun Runners. His name is Ralph.)
  • Before you exit Gun Runners, just look at all that poo! It's smells like...like...like XP.
  • Oh! Now that you got the Boneyard Guard perk, you can dump all of your Skill Points into Small Guns (110).
  • Exit Gun Runners when done, and travel to New Adytum, just south.
