Deleted5396936User Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 (edited) Hey everyone, I'm currently doing a "Caps Maniac" playthrough where I basically try to get as many caps as humanly possible. I'm using a combo of mods to help make this more feasible, like my own "Light Clutter" mod as well as plenty of mods that add dungeons, interiors, etc. to the game for me to get more loot from. It's also going to be a super evil playthrough as I basically ransack the entire wasteland of everything that isn't nailed down. Currently, very early on in the playthrough, I have already gotten 30k caps which i'm gonna end up spending on most of the implants at the NV medical clinic. I'm also aware of three massively important perks which I need to get ASAP - the survival one that adds the high value food drops and the two carry-weight boosters. Any tips for me on my quest to get a stupidly massive pile of bottlecaps? Also, what is the most caps you have had at one point in your own playthroughs? Update: Here's my current stack of caps. Nellis is a huge treasure trove. It's been a super pain hopping between merchants to sell all this stuff lol.https://imgur.com/P9EGbpf Edited July 28, 2018 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HadToRegister Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 Can't remember the exact amount but it was a LOT.Mainly because I set my luck to 9, got the Luck bobblehead, then went to all the Casinos until I got banned from every single one.You can't lose with a luck of 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deleted5396936User Posted July 27, 2018 Author Share Posted July 27, 2018 Ah of course, the casinos :laugh: I think that's pretty much another guaranteed 50k or so overall! That also reminded me of the Sierra Madre vault - I definitely have to make sure I get out with as many gold bars as possible!! (though I won't do anything cheaty - I'll make sure I leave the vault without being overencumbered). I will be updating this thread with how many caps I manage to get at various points in the playthrough. My personal end-goal is at least one million but let's see if I can surpass that!

Don't forget the Sierra Madre Casino too.Or can you only cash out for the currency used in the DLC? (I'm in the process of installing New Vegas again, I miss playing the DLC) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoctorKaizeld Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 I mean really i managed to clear out the vault and every casino banned me so... Now I think about it I probably had well over a million Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HadToRegister Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 How did you manage to clear out the Vault with all those gold bars?You have to run like hell to make it out in time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoctorKaizeld Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 Really tricky honestly. But you can get through the door father Elijah comes through if you are quick enough. It took me a few tries and some guide to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deleted5396936User Posted July 28, 2018 Author Share Posted July 28, 2018 Now I think about it I probably had well over a million Well there's a new goal for me! Currently i'm at 45k, but that's after spending 20k on the SPECIAL stat implants. I'm still at an early point in the playthrough and I don't have the two big money-making perks (Jury Rigging and Them's Good Eating). I imagine that after getting those perks I'll start to get ridiculous caps - I guess I am setting the new goal at 5 million. Let's see if that is way too crazy of a goal or not, lol.

DoctorKaizeld Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 If it wasn't for the fact the game is uninstalled and none of my mods are installed I would share a pic of it. I may have one in my screenshots though I'll take a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
