Silver Peak Mine

Fallout: New Vegas guide · Exploring the northern mountains

Silver Peak Mine is a treacherous cave located high in the mountains east of Jacobstown. It is heavily infested with high-level creatures and serves as the lair for a unique, powerful beast. Players venturing inside should prepare for close-quarters combat against some of the game's deadliest predators in exchange for rare equipment.

Items

0/1

Remnants power helmet: Next to a skeleton near a rusted gate inside the upper walkway area of the deep cavern

Secrets

0/1

The Remnants power helmet can be reached by climbing the wooden ramps and pathways within the main cavern rather than only navigating the lower floor.

Enemies

Cazador

Weak to Wings (crippling)Steal / drop Cazador poison gland, Cazador venom sac

Highly venomous and fast; they swarm in large numbers in the outer and inner sections.

Legendary Cazador

Weak to Wings (crippling)Steal / drop Cazador poison gland, Cazador venom sac

An exceptionally large and durable variant that deals massive damage; found in the deepest chamber.

Tips

Bring plenty of Antivenom or snakebite tourniquets, as a single sting from the Legendary Cazador can quickly deplete your health.
Target the wings of the Cazadores using VATS to cripple their mobility, making them much easier to manage in the tight tunnels.
