My favourite part of Lonesome Road was just talking to Ulysses, props to the writers and voice actor for creating one of the most interesting characters to talk to in games!

The divide Is practically a gold mine for great weapons

I love the Elite Riot Gear. Looks like the NCR armor all grown-up

If you do the nukes before entering the tops casino and obtain whatever armor you want, and then enter the tops, deal with Benny, and leave, you will be pardoned of all crimes by both legion and NCR. Meaning, you can wear Armor of the 87th tribe while being a legionnaire or the scorched sierra power armor on NCR...

For all those new Couriers walking the Lonesome Road, the marked men living there like to use special ammo types for their guns, and they will use them to deadly effect, watch for snipers, they will punch through most armor!

Im sorry NCR, I normally side with you, but by god I want that power armour. You understand, right?

Extra Note to Wild Wastelanders: When using the Fist of Rawr, it will be renamed to Fist of the North Rawr when using the Wild Wasteland perk.

My Lonesome road just involved me hiding behind cars with my sniper rifle tossing land minds yards ahead of me trying to avoid deathclaws

My Lonesome Road was... Emotional. I was a good character, but I had lost Veronica, then I did the Old World Blues dlc, where I decided that losing her caused me to become a bitter, evil individual. So I went around, killing, stealing, and being generally evil in Honest Hearts. It was then that I played Dead Money, and my character became attached to Christine. I saw this as a transformative experience for my character, and thus finished the dlc, in a depressed, confused state. But, when I checked the Elders room in the bunker, and found the holotape for Veronica, I decided to go on a journey of self discovery, repentance, and self-forgiveness. It was then that I began the Lonesome Road journey.

I know this is not a piece of equipment but there is a roughin it bedroll kit above the exit to the hopeville missile silo

where you got the third marked man helmet, there was a sleeping bag in one of the stone teepee things that lets you sleep at any point on the map

NCR Veteran Ranger: I have the coolest armour! Legate Lanius: Hold your tongue degenerate I have the greatest armour! *200 year old riot enforcer has entered the chat*

I know these vids are old, but even on my fourth "unique/rare" run at the game, I still find these helpful. it seems I always miss one or two items between each expansion. (fist of rawr this time lol)

The most interesting DLC in the game. I also would have mentioned that the Centurion type characters did carry some interesting weapons. Not unique, per say but their bonuses should have made them worth mentioning. I ended up saving both groups my first play through and Ulysses. I speeched him down and ED-E sacrificed himself for me. I actually felt heartbroken at his loss... in that short amount of time, he touched my heart more so than any NPC in any game. I actually shed a tear at his death. This time, however, the Legion can F*** off.

did anyone get emotional when e-de sacrificed himself for the missels?

The first time i went through this DLC i was looking a trailer on the highway and when i was at the door to leave a deathclaw fell from the roof

I'm with NCR, but that power armor is so tempting :(

OVERCUMBERD AS FUCK thats how it was

It's crazy how I still play fallout 3 and new vegas til this day. Favorite game of all time. Anyways I got all these except I didn't even notice at all that the beast generals had variants in helmets! Nice to learn something new, Great vid!

You forgot the Red Glare. It is actually pretty good rocket launcher and it is even upgradable.

my lonesome road was... Enlightening. My courier was the showboat. the glory, the guy constantly wanting to be the center of attention. I'd get into situations I couldn't handle and I'd rely on others to do my dirty work while I took the credit. When I got E-de I treated him like shit. he was just another tool, then we got into a pretty bad scrap with some deathclaws, because I was too stupid to heed anyone's words of wisdom and took the straight forward path to new Vegas. He died. and I felt...odd. like a chunk of me went missing. I got my ass outta there in relatively good shape, but i couldn't stop thinking about E-de. Eventually I met Boone, then Arcade, Then Cass and so on and so on. Boone met his end when I got cocky and tried to take on vault three with just a 9mm. Arcade fell when we got the bad side of some legionaries. Cassidy, well you don't wanna know about Cass. But this pattern repeated itself over and over until I was the last one left. I was idolized everywhere but. it meant nothing to me. I was a badass decked out in full ncr ranger armor. Deathclaws fell at me feet in seconds, but it was pointless. I felt so alone. Fame and glory meant nothing if there was no one to share it with. So after I made enough caps I did what every other loner would do. get drunk. but it wasn't for fun, it was to fill a hole, to rekindle the spark the made feel alive again. it was in vain. Then I met Veronica, I was back on my feet and soon I felt great again, but then I thought about everything else I had done, how friends had been killed because of my reckless habits. So I just left Veronica one day without a single word. I couldn't witness that again. not after I lost everyone else. So I went back to Vegas and once again began to drink my sorrows away. in a drunken haze I remembered getting a frequency on my pip boy. then I ended up in the big empty with the think tank. After those trials and tribulations I ended following another frequency. this time to the Sierra Madre. there I met Elijah. It scared me how similar me and Elijah were. In constant pursuit of something be it glory or power, we both used and abused anyone in our way and any who helped, in the end Elijah was trapped with what he was looking for. And I was left to my thoughts. For a time after that I'd just wander still processing what I had learned when my trails lead me to the happy trails caravan and to Zion. but more importantly to Joshua Graham and to Daniel. At first I sympathized with Joshua and said we should kill salt upon wounds. But I spoke with Daniel and what he said gave me pause. Did I really have the right to take life, be it good or bad? Did I have the right to dictate other's lives? eventually I decided it would be better if the tribes Joshua and Daniel were protecting to flee instead of needlessly die. These events lead me to seek a path of atonement for the wrongs I had done and to seek forgiveness form my fallen comrades. This path would lead me to the divide, where I would defeat Ulysses with words, rather than weapons. I had encountered E-de and I saw it as a second chance, a chance to fix my mistakes. I was heartbroken when Ed-e gave his life so that others could live, but I thought back to his original death and realized he done the same thing before. I walked my lonesome road and emerged a new man free from the bonds of vice and conflict, because war, war never changes, men do, through the roads they walk

the first marked leader um miss fortune and mysterious stranger both spawned and um launched him far away

Good thing i'm going for independence. I don't give a damn about what happens to the NCR or Caesar.

I don't get why people thought this dlc was hard, I'm getting past it just fine at level 18. Just bring the anti material rifle and you are good.

The elite riot gear can actually also be found in hopevile, in the armory, You need a lockpick of 100 though

just one thing ou forgot to mention the fact that you need an unarmed skill of 75 to craft the fist or rawr

My favorite DLC by far. ED-E is my favorite companion and his upgrades are amazing. I always get positive rep with NCR just to get the NCR duster. NCR duster + Strong Back = 😍

I'm idolized with the NCR. Long live NCR. I really want that power armor, though. I'm sorry General Oliver, President Kimball, Colonel Moore, Major Dhitri... I HAVE TO HAVE THAT POWER ARMOR.

I walk this Lonesome Road, the only one the Ulysses' ever know.

This guide is awesome, thank you! Straight forward and no fluff. I've usually beaten the game by the time the DLC comes out and by then there's little incentive to play it. Now, upon 2nd play through doing these dlcs early on is much more enjoyable. This dlc was top-notch.

Best dlc in the game. When adding the best and coolest looking amour in the game is just one of the coolest things in this dlc really says a lot.

If the nukes still work, I am sure some of the stoves still work as well :P

The U.S Army General Outfit and the Boomers Officers Cap goes really nice together. Also Authority Glasses go good with it too.

Hands down my favorite dlc of new Vegas on my most recent playthrough I went into the dlc at level 15 and left rich asf and loaded with the best weaponry in the game great experience

Low-Light vision also activates in interior areas when sneaking. It's not just tied into the time of day in the game.

What about the H&H Tool Gun?

I like to think I know all of these locations off by heart by now, purely because of how often I watch these videos. I love them so much.

I used to not like this DLC just because of how gloomy and boring it looked, now that I've played through it a few times I have grown to regard it as one of, if not, my all time favorite. My only regret is that I cannot believe I missed the Elite Riot Gear every time! Thank you so much for these fun, informative and entertaining guides. I cannot wait to see what else you have in store for us!

I sided with yes man and didn't nuke either but I gave me the ncr duster for some reason. My reputation was good but I assumed that since I was doing the yes man playthrough I would get the blackjack duster

I'm pretty sure there are 3 riot gears, one is near the army general in a locker

Just watched all 4 of these videos for each DLC, SUB earned

Great guide! This brings back great memories of first playing this game on pc, the nostalgia! :D

This is a very goated channel and these videos are still useful to this day

You Missed The Unique Bed Behind Were You Exit The 1st Bunker You Can Sleep Any were And Its UseFull

Caedogenisis , Thank you for making all these guides. Fallout 3, 4 and New Vegas . Keep Making these videos. Wouldn't find most of these weapons without these video guides. Keep On uploading !

I have a question. I am currently doing this dlc campaign before the main vanilla campaign. I really want all the unique armor, but I don't want to jeopardize my current status for my campaign. Is there any missions of the campaign I should do before I end this dlc? (I don't really care for spoilers) Please reply soon, Mohawkwarrior12

The nail gun you find at the bridge was my saving grace on the lonesome road. Those tunnelers we're bad news.

Anddddddddddddd , I missed about 3 ED-E upgrades . FML :/

caedo you deserve so many more subs and i love ur fallout guides

This DLC is the best DLC in my opinion , more fun than OWB

If you ever revisit New Vegas, a guide to the hidden logs & EDE Ralphie poster locations would be great 👍

T-51b power armor, T-51b helmet, tesla canon. In the long 15

Thanks for the spoilers alert. I actually stopped the video right when you said it. I finished that dlc but it was years ago, and I can’t remember how it ends, and right now I’m about to enter the lonesome road again :)

Why did they make tunnelers I was on very easy and at lvl 35 but they still shreked me and the pancincia

Dude your video's are really helpful , keep up the good work!

can you make a video of all the warheads because i can only find 20 of them

Even in 2021 this guide is still useful

You can still get both faction armors even without starting Lonesome Road. You just have to open the console and type "tmm 1" which unlocks all map markers, Allowing you to go to Long 15 and Dry Wells. And yeah, it is considered cheating.

I played new Vegas and beat it so many times but today marks the day I beat all the dlcs for the first time, it was great thank you for helping me with the uniques too

What about the Red Glare. You forgot it.

Hands down one of my favorite DLCs.

Should I play through Old World Blues or Lonesome Road first? And should I even bother with Dead Money unless I want its acheivements? (I already played Honest Hearts.)

How to start a op build: when you start go straight to the divide and get the laser detonator and the red glare. Then use this glitch (i only know the xbox way) open your inventory hover over red glare press the favorites button go left on the left stick and go to the ammo section and favorite the rockets (do all of this while still holding down the favorite button) then equip the laser detonator and swap to the rocket. Have fun and try not to blow yourself up :)

The us army combat armor in the hopevill missile silo in a locked locker

Caedo, you're the type of guy that makes my life worth living

I sided with the ncr but Good god i want that power armor Update: I ended up nuking both factions cuz i dont give a fuck xD

The intro is awesome! Great work!

Thanks for doing this you are like the only Person who dose vides

I'm going to go through all the DLCs, I'm doing Lonesome Road now, saving Dead Money for last

I love how plot twist of LR is: you are not going against other lunatics, who are obsessed with something, and about who you heard about in other dlc. You are lunatic yourself obsessed with exploring and annihilating remains of any other hostile local community just because of radio from Ulysses.

Okay so that laser detonator is the most overpowered terrifying thing in the entire game. It's like an a-10 bombing run

You forgot about Royez's unique NCR buret that can be found on Royez in the long 15

and as an unregistered bonus of the elite riot gear, you look like a total badass

8 years later and I still come back to watch these videos so I can grab everything, Yes I’m a completionist. Lol

You deserve way more Subs i think your great

You forgot about the Fist of the North Rawr, and the Courier duster depends on your reputation only, so you don't have to progress to the point were you confront Benny or even talk to mr House.

These guide are very well detailed and it helps me a lot

Thank you for showing me all the unique items. Your movies are awesome. Hope you will do guides with fallout 4.

"The Courier Never Changes"

It's crazy how unique this game is depending on if you turn right left open this run past that

Missed blade of the West from blade. I know this video is old but I still play new vegas and I forget things and like to watch these vids

I was just relieved that I hadn’t (permanently) lost Ed-E (didn’t know about the Primm location until recently)

What ever faction you have the most rep with when you enter the divide, will determine the duster you will get when you leave. So for example, because I was liked by the NCR and accepted by Mr. House, I got the duster with the NCR logo on it because I had more rep with the NCR than house, or any other faction for that matter.

also, guys, and i know im late, but the Armor of the 87th Tribe and the Scorched Sierra Power Armor are NOT considered Faction armor, you can wear those if you side either NCR or Caesar Legion

One that you missed is found the same way you get Fist of Rawr, but with the wild wasteland perk, you will instead have Fist of the North Rawr, rather than Fist of Rawr

I never knew you were supposed to get only 1 duster when completing it, because when I first did lonesome road my game (I assume) glitched and out all of them in there. 2nd time I did lonesome road I was surprised by it being absent, looked it up, and realized how lucky I was on my first run

That intro was freaking amazing

Not sure if you just forgot or didnt add it since its right next to the laser detonator, but the red glare rocket launcher is also pretty unique

Don't forget that you can craft "The fist of the north rawrr" instead of the "fist of rawrr" if you have the wild wasteland perk. God, that pun.

Caedo, you forgot Red Glare. On top of the building just past the Hopefully Missile headquarters, carried by a marked man. Thanks for the guide though! Super helpful!

I didnt even notice ED-E upgrades until I got to the Ashton missile silo

I never knew if you nuked the Legion or the NCR that it would unlock new locations and different armor and weapons. This is so cool I need to check this out right away.

The area with the third marked man leader, there is a little stone cubby thing, and inside of it is a bedroll that allows the courier to sleep wherever they please. There is probably more stuff like this but ive not found any yet personally.

Love your videos! Very helpful!

It was an adventure for sure. I let the middle take out the Legion. Then I failed the quest. At least I saved before taking on Ulysses. I may re do it. Thanks for the video .

Lord it was amazing it made me sit in silents for like 5 min and all I could say was damn thanks for the vids

That master detanator most definitely is the most game breaking weapon, if you know the hot key glitch

Just nitpicking here, The Fist of Rawr actually referring to this manga/anime series called "Fist of the North Star" I just found out about this when I played both times with or without the Wild Wasteland perk and both have different names.

I love how you could fuck over the NCR or the Legion in every possible way, including literally nuking important areas they hold but they forgive you of EVERYTHING if you meet Mr. House. Really goes to show how important Mr. House and how willing the NCR and Legion are to work with people who have severely hurt them given the right incentives.
