Seems like the "Hidden Bombshelter" Special Encounter has been quite common these days, is that true?

I was just wondering about everyone getting this same encounter, and suddenly, I popped into one. With the same encounter rate as now, we will see many Gauss Pistols in shops in about a week.

I always think I've gotten a special encounter whenever I get into an encounter and it doesn't show any
"You have encountered X" message.
I get real excited and look around and there's nothing.  They should put a "You encounter (Player Name) when you encounter a player : <

That just means there was another player that you were about to encounter, but they left.. (Happens a lot near NCR)

Yeah I once made around 500 XP by walking at the same corner of a square somewhere between BoS bunker and Junktown, because I got lightning and some XP everytime I walked there, after getting 500 XP I just bored.

I have never gotten any (that I knew of) either, but some of them I know what they are. Two are pretty obvious encounters: One is a big tank with missiles scattered around, and the other one is a ladder hole in the middle of the map.

I am not sure about the others, but when you encounter a special encounter, it won't be a combat encounter and you won't encounter any other players, so if you ever get into a mysterious encounter that doesn't have a "You encounter... wastelander" on it, then look around for a bit.

I found the small personal vault too - with some expensive drugs, cheap food, the key, dead NPC body in blue suit in a bathroom, Combat Leather Jacket... and... Metal Armor Mark II, Gatling Laser with about 250 micro fusion cells and PPK12 Gauss Pistol with some ammo. Nice!  :o   (so - the location is always same with same stuff)
