There is a man here | There is a man here that is about to be burned at the stake. If you save him using Speech (65+) or player age (35+), [[Gerlach]] will offer a modified submachine gun as reward for repairing the pump. If you let them burn the guy (or just leave the site and come back in a couple of days), [[Gerlach]] will offer several different "guns" to choose from. | ||
Once rescued, [[Steve]] will upgrade leather jackets and/or fix the water tank in [[Lovelock]]. If asked for payment, his sister will point out a stash of items behind [[Gerlach]]'s house (shovel required). | Once rescued, [[Steve]] will upgrade leather jackets and/or fix the water tank in [[Lovelock]] free of charge - the latter will only happen if you fixed the water pump here as he isn't allowed to leave the town yet. If asked for payment, his sister will point out a stash of items behind [[Gerlach]]'s house (shovel required) but do this '''after''' [[Steve]] makes the upgrades or fixes the water tower or he will refuse you. [[Gerlach]] will ask you about snooping around his house but nothing will happen. | ||
To repair [[Gerlach]]'s water pump, you need either scrap metal (Repair 30+) or a fuse that can acquired in [[Vault City]] (this will save you from having to buy one in [[New Reno]]). | To repair [[Gerlach]]'s water pump, you need either scrap metal (Repair 30+) or a fuse that can be acquired in [[Vault City]] (this will save you from having to buy one in [[New Reno]]) from [[Sgt. Stark]] or Sam. | ||
In the last room of the big house on the right, you will find Milo's wife for the quest from [[Black Rock]] and a note on table (you probably can't reach it until the residents move but it doesn't affect anything). | |||
The hunter [[Evan]] will teach you how to hunt Geckos and eventually teach you Gecko Skinning. If you ask him about the traps during the first hunting quest, he'll increase your Traps skill by 5%. His [[quests]] are tied to using a hunting whistle <!-- As far as I know it only works inside the two [[quests]]. -->. In the egg chamber (second hunting quest), you can find a torn jacket, which, with the help of a workbench and the skin of a silver gecko, can be turned into a normal leather jacket (Repair 35+). Up to half the geckos in the cave can be killed without failing the quest. With the combination of sneak skill, running and timing, you can avoid killing any geckos, pick up all the eggs (14 total) and any other loot. Once you are back outside, he ends up taking 10 eggs for himself and the rest he gives to you and tells you it's best to sell them in [[New Reno]] (restaurants) for most profit (with barter check you can increase price slightly more there). | |||
Afterward Evan will mention the existence of a legendary scorpion out in the wastes. This tough critter has a high amount of hitpoints and deals a lot of damage plus poison. Kiting backwards while firing energy weapons is a viable takedown strategy, if you can, aim for the eyes - it should make the fight much easier. Slaying the beast yields 500 XP and an [[armor]] crafting component. | |||
Should you choose to move the settlers to [[Vault City]] later, make sure to do the [[Black Rock]] quest involving Milo first. To persuade the residents to move you need good reputation or Speech (70+). Trapper [[Evan]] will stay behind regardless along with [[Gerlach]] himself. | |||
