View source for Talk to the guard to be able to join Vault City

Go to [[Vault City]] and talk to the guard at the gate to the inner city. Depending on your [[SPECIAL|stats]] and [[skills]] he will require different things of you in order to join Vault City as a citizen. This guard is the one person who can grant you Vault City Citizenship.

'''NOTE''': If you become a Vault City "citizen", thus by joining the Vault City NPC faction, you will be automatically removed from whatever faction in which you were already a member, and this will happen with no prompts. Switching factions has caused some people confusion in the past, so if you're already in a faction, understand this before engaging this dialogue option.

==Talking with the Guard==
*If your [[Intelligence]] is 4 or less, he will treat you as if you're a total idiot.
*If your [[IN]] is 5 or more, you are treated better but [[IN]] alone is not enough to gain citizenship.

==Requirements to Join the Vault City Faction==
* If your [[Charisma]] is higher than 8, you can beg the guard to be let in successfully.
* Otherwise he may give you a quest to retrieve the [[Hydroelectric Magnetosphere Regulator]] from the reactor in [[Gecko]] to gain citizenship.
* If those options are not available, you can gain access if you have any of these:
** [[Repair]] 125 is not good enough on its own to become a citizen
** [[First Aid]] 200 is not good enough on its own to become a citizen
** [[Doctor]] 200 is not good enough on its own to become a citizen
** [[Science]] 125 is not good enough on its own to become a citizen
* If your character doesn't see any of the above dialog options to join Vault City faction, Kama Sutra Master [[support perk]] gives special dialog option with guard, to let you join.

'''NOTE''': If you want to do the quest, "[[collect rent for the guard]]" (requires [[Speech]] 100?), then do it before joining the Vault City faction, because it is not available to Vault City citizens.

==Limited Visitation==
There is another way to be allowed inside the city area at [[Vault City]], and that is to get a [[Day Pass]]. A [[Day Pass]] means you're just a visitor, and not a citizen member of the Vault City faction, but you're allowed to go in past the gate and do commerce with merchants inside the city. Just remember, with a [[Day Pass]], you're an authorized visitor '''during daytime hours only''' and you must be out on time or you'll be shot. With a [[Day Pass]], you're not allowed to be inside the city after hours, nor are you allowed inside the vault at all, as vault access is only for actual "citizens".

== Rewards ==
* Joining the [[Vault City faction]] (Access to the inner city and [[Vault 8]]). '''You are now a Vault City citizen !'''
