As you may know, to get to New Vegas to do the main story line you are going to run in to Deathclaws. They are a real pain. I know you can buy DLC, which is what I resorted too. I figure the other way is to go to Good Springs AFTER you finish every quest there. Then off to Doc Mitchell's house, maybe for a plasma pistol. I know you can steal that. I still need to figure out how to get good gear, I have the gun, but will die in a few hits without the gear. How do I get good gear for fighting a deathclaw?
