Complete walkthrough for Camp Searchlight in Fallout: New Vegas, including the 'We Will All Go Together' quest, ghoul extermination, and finding radiation suits.
Walkthrough
- 1From Matthews Animal Husbandry Farm, head north-east to find a small survivor camp west of Camp Searchlight. Speak with First Sergeant Astor to learn about the Legion's radiation bomb and the ghoulified NCR Troopers. He will ask you to collect NCR Dogtags for a reward and give you two doses of Rad-X and RadAway for agreeing, starting the quest We Will All Go Together.
- 2Search the survivor camp: find First Sergeant Astor’s Log on a table, an Explosives Crate [Average] outside a tent, and a Gun Case and First Aid Box inside the tent.
- 3Equip an Advanced Radiation Suit and enter Searchlight from the east. Kill two Ghoul Troopers at a barricade under a bridge. Hack a Terminal [Easy] nearby to activate a turret for bonus XP.
- 4Kill two more Ghoul Troopers east at the end of the bridge. Head south past a barricade near the Searchlight Police Station. Search a house east of the station for a Terminal [Average] to activate another turret.
- 5Continue south along the road until it bisects another road. Turn east to find another barricade with two Ghoul Troopers. Kill them and search north for a Terminal [Very Easy].
- 6From the barricade, follow the road west to the other end of town, near the Searchlight Fire Station (the heart of the radiation). West of the fire station is a Terminal [Very Hard].
- 7Head west from the four-way intersection to reach the church. Find the cellar door leading to the Searchlight NCR Storage.
- 8In the cellar, talk to Logan and two other Prospectors. Ask him what he's doing and if you can help. He'll ask you to hack the NCR Storage Database terminal [Average] on a table to the south.
- 9Hack the terminal to open the nearby safe, or pick the locked safe [Average]. Tell Logan about the radiation suits' location. He'll offer to let you in on their mission if you bring him the suits. Succeed at a [Speech 50] check for a bigger share. Loot the basement for attire, chems, and Ammo Boxes.
- 10Fast-travel to Nipton. Head into the General Store and talk to Boxcar about the NCR supplies. He'll mention Legion soldiers heading north.
- 11Return up the train tracks to the Coyote Den and head into the mountains east, uphill, to find a Hidden Supply Cave.
- 12Search a Hollowed-Out Rock near the cave entrance for loot. Pick the locked door [Average] to enter.
- 13At the eastern end of the cave, find a First Aid Box and three Footlockers. A Radiation Suit is on top of one. Take the “Radiation Suit Package” from a Footlocker. Find a copy of Grognak the Barbarian on a crate south of the First Aid Box.
- 14Return to Logan in the church cellar and give him the Radiation Suits. He will give you the Searchlight Police Station Key and list it as the goal.
- 15Leave the basement and head north-east to the police station. Loot Vending Machines in the first room.
- 16Go through a door north to reach the prison. Kill a Feral Ghoul Trooper. Search metal cabinets for two bottles of Rad-X. Search the eastern-most cell to find an NCR 9mm Submachine Gun on the floor near the bed.
