No Loot
« on: September 16, 2012, 10:48:30 am »

So whenever I search containers, dead things, or try and steal, they have nothing! Even when I trade with NPC's, they have nothing! Any help or clue as to what is going on here?

If you are talking about containers in towns, they all have been looted already. Might be an odd 1 or 2 lockers which may have stuff as other players may ty to hide it there.

Best way to get loot would be to find a vs encounter and loot the dead after the winners have taken their pick.

As for trading, trade with the trader NPC's. They got stuff.

I got a random encounter, and tried to loot some mantis and gecko. Nothing there. Tried to trade with the merchant, he had nothing.

Mantis dont carry loot, all insects and animals dont carry loot, save the geckos and brahmin. Geckos has pelts, but you need the perk to skin them first. Brahmin carry hides, which may be used to make a tent when you got 10.

The merchant in random encounters usually have nada in stock.

Better to find something a la Patrol vs Raiders or something.

Problem is, I have no weapon, and a few raiders just took a shotgun and splattered my brains over the walls. X_X

Best advice is to get into crafting and craft yourself a weapon

Start out as a realtime scavanger, go into friendy vs badguy encounters and let them slug it out then let the good guys loot what they want, you will end up with the scraps.  Good versus encounters like that are vc patrols versus ghouls around vault city.  Unity vs rogues around broken hills, etc,.   Then when you have a few guns and ammo stored safely away at your tent, you can try killing rats, scorpions, mantises yourself for experience, the first say 6 levels are crucial to any kind of success besides being a stain on some mean NPC's shoe.  I suggest your initial combat to be in Turn based as it isn't as frantic and is more relaxed especially for noobies, but ymmv.  Find hunting parties in NCr like Cari, she is an awesome host for getting your first few kills and gear.

You can always find marauders vs rangers or powder gang vs NCR army and loot them quickly when they die and run away

OP is insane, I just ran past a Mantis-hit squad with m60's and flamethrowers, lucky for me they were too busy trying to kill the geckos sniping them from far away.
