Sloan

Fallout: New Vegas guide · Traveling north from Primm

Sloan is a small mining settlement operated by the New California Republic that has ground to a halt due to an infestation of Deathclaws in the nearby quarry. Players passing through on the way north can rest, repair equipment, and accept tasks to heal the town's pet mole rat or clear out Quarry Junction. It serves primarily as a narrative warning and physical barrier to deter low-level couriers from taking the direct northern route to the New Vegas Strip.

Tips

Heed Chomps Lewis's warning and avoid heading north directly through Quarry Junction at early levels, as Deathclaws will easily kill under-equipped characters.
A repair check of 65 on the broken generator near the mess hall awards positive NCR fame and caps from Chomps Lewis.
