Boone’s recruitment quest is a worthwhile venture for just about everyone. While you’re here, you’ll be able to find Boone, a new doctor (of questionable skill, but good supplies) and your first permanent home, in the form of a motel room.ĭespite these amenities, you’ll also be able to help out around town. The area may look small, but it’s home to some very useful things. Novac will be the first major town that you encounter. Each of these quests should help you get your feet wet in the Mojave, learn the lay of the land and earn some early caps and equipment for your journey to New Vegas. Primm, on the other hand, will force you to take the town back from a group of rogue Powder Gangers and then decide on who the ideal sheriff for the town would be.

The NCR prison will let evil characters make some new friends in the region and fight the NCR, or allow double agents to get some intel on the prison and join the NCR assault to seize it. And if you’re following the traditional path, you’ll soon be able to do a few missions at the NCR prison or the nearby town of Primm. Your first trip outside in Goodsprings will introduce you to a war with the local branch of the Powder Gangers and a particularly nasty trap set by Barton Fink. There are a couple of simple quests to get you started once you come to life in the Mojave Wasteland. Starter Quests - Goodsprings, NCR Prison and Primm
