Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Fast-travel to Goodsprings Cemetery and head east, north-east, descending a cliff face. Follow the quest marker to find hills with cubbies. Loot the body of a Mercenary for Radscorpion Eggs. Return to Red Lucy and give her the eggs. Haggle for more Caps with a successful [Barter 60] check. Ask for a third task.
  2. 2
    Fast-travel to Ranger Station Echo and head north into the hills to find the Lucky Jim Mine House. Inside, on the bottom shelf of a metal shelf, find a copy of Lying, Congressional Style.
  3. 3
    Fast-travel back to Ranger Station Echo. Head north-west from Ranger Station Echo to find the unmarked Bootjack Cavern, east and a little north of the Wrecked Highwayman. Enter the cavern and head south to a larger tunnel. Head south-east, killing Fire Geckos. Loot a Dead Prospector. Alternatively, head west then south, killing more Geckos. Continue west until you spot a narrower passage to the south, opening into a larger chamber. Loot a Dead Prospector to the north, then nab the Fire Gecko Eggs. Return to Red Lucy and give her the eggs. Succeed at a [Barter 70] check to earn more Caps. Pick up the fourth egg hunt for Night Stalker Eggs.
  4. 4
    Fast-travel to Raul’s Shack and follow the cliffs east, being wary of Deathclaws. Find a small shack hiding a cistern leading to the underground Brotherhood of Steel Safehouse. Inside, find a Workbench, Reloading Bench, cots, a water fountain, Footlockers, Lockers, a Tesla Cannon, a Gatling Laser, T-45d Power Armor, a T-54d Power Helmet, T-51b Power Armor, a T-51b Power Helmet, Recon Armor, a Recon Helmet, a Minigun, a Missile Launcher, and ammo.
  5. 5
    Travel south-west from the Brotherhood of Steel Safehouse to find the Gypsum Train Yard. Circle around to the western end and ascend a hill onto a large piece of mining equipment for a sniping spot. Kill the Blind Deathclaws below. Enter the Gypsum Quarry Office. Loot egg clutches for Ant bits and a First Aid Box.
  6. 6
    Backtrack to the Brotherhood of Steel Safehouse and follow the cliffs east, south-east, then north-east. Stumble across Bloodborne Cave. From the entrance, head north-east until the path splits, then head down a slope to the north-west. This leads to a ledge overlooking a tunnel crawling with Night Stalkers, including a Legendary Night Stalker. Snipe them. Drop off the ledge and make your way to the tunnel. At a campsite, find a Hunting Revolver, a Hunting Shotgun, and ammo. Grab a Key off a cinder block to the south-west. Continue west to find the Nightstalker Eggs behind a rock.
  7. 7
    From the Nightstalker Eggs, head north, north-west into a tunnel, following it uphill. Make your way north-east until the path bends sharply south-east, finding the body of a Recruit Legionary. Continue south-east, then south-west to find a small chamber with Night Stalkers. Head south-east through the chamber to find another tunnel. Continue south-east down the tunnel to a locked gate [Very Hard]. Open it with the Key or by picking the lock. Disarm a Tripwire rigged to a Grenade Bouquet. Beyond the gate and trap, find a 12.7mm Submachine Gun, 12.7mm Rounds, a First Aid Box, Purified Water, and a Trunk [Average] containing over 8,000 Caps. Continue south-east, then south-west to a small chamber. Go south-west up a ramp to return outside. Exterminate any remaining Night Stalkers. Return to Red Lucy. Pass a [Barter 80] check for extra incentive. Accept the next task: Cazador Eggs.
  8. 8
    Fast-travel to the South Vegas Ruins West Entrance, kill any respawned Fiends, then head south-west past the Poseidon Gas Station. Find the Chance’s Map map marker.
  9. 9
    From Chance’s Map, head south-east to find Nopah Cave. Kill Fire Geckos outside, then head inside. Travel west down a passage, then down a slope into a more open cavern. Head north to find a chamber with Fire Geckos. To the south-west is a smaller chamber with more Fire Geckos. Kill them all. Search the chamber for a Super Mutant Master with a Fat Man.
Tips
  • The Blind Deathclaws at Gypsum Train Yard count towards the “Deathclaw Pro Hunter” challenge if using .22 Pistols, Switchblades, Boxing Tape, Recharger Rifles, or Dynamite. Using a Silenced .22 Pistol from atop the mining cart is an effective, albeit time-consuming, method for earning 1000 XP.
  • Ratslayer is effective for sniping Night Stalkers in Bloodborne Cave.
  • A high Sneak score and distance are useful for dealing with Fire Geckos in Nopah Cave.
  • Radscorpion Eggs: 150 XP, 300 or 400 Caps
  • Fire Gecko Eggs: 200 XP, 500 or 700 Caps
  • Night Stalker Eggs: 300 XP, 700 or 1000 Caps, Hunting Revolver, 45-70 Gov’t x9
