Next to Mesquite Mountains Crater

On the western edge of the Mesquite Mountains crater, west-southwest of Primm, the ghoul Doctor Rotson made his home in the irradiated zone: a two-story shack with a kitchen and lab downstairs, sleeping quarters upstairs, a moonshine still and containers of glowing fungus growing on the porch. Feral ghoul reavers that do not scale with your level prowl outside.

Rotson lies dead inside in a pool of blood, next to a crazed Mister Handy that may be the one that killed him. The building itself is free of radiation. Look for a D.C. Journal of Internal Medicine and a weapon repair kit on the shelf by the radio, a pre-War hat on the globe, a star bottle cap on the dining table and a fridge full of irradiated food.

How to get there

From Primm, head west-southwest to the Mesquite Mountains crater and circle to its western rim.

Notable loot

  • Sunset Sarsaparilla star bottle cap (dining table)
  • D.C. Journal of Internal Medicine (shelf by the radio and globe)
  • Weapon repair kit (same shelf)
  • Pre-War hat (on the globe)
  • Irradiated scotch (north wall, near the fridge)

Tips

  • The ghoul reavers outside do not scale with level, so this is dangerous early in the game.
  • With Robotics Expert you can switch off the Mister Handy instead of fighting it.
  • Take Rad-X for the porch and lakeshore; the interior is clean.
