Vault 34

Vault 34 is one of the Vault-Tec Vaults.

Background
As part of the Vault Experiment, the armory was overstocked with weapons, and ammo and not provided with a lock (but is still some how locked upon entering the vault). The location of this Vault is in the Mojave Wasteland. By 2281, it still has people living in it, though they have become similar to Feral ghouls.

According to the Boomers historian Pete they used to occupy the Vault 34, but they got sick of not being allowed to use their weapons so they left and started a community at Nellis.

According to various terminals inside the vault, Vault 34 suffered overpopulation at some point, which the Overseer wanted to "fix". For obvious reasons, the Vault Dwellers revolted, attempting to riot and gain control of the armory. During the riot, the vault's reactor vents were damaged, dooming the inhabitants to a lethal dose of radiation.

Preparing to enter the vault
Both the entrance to the vault and the whole vault are very radioactive, so it is recommended to stack up on Rad-X and   RadAway and get some high rad resistant armor such as a Spacesuit or an Advanced radiation suit.

There is a lot of Rad-X and RadAway in a safe (medium difficulty) on the first level of the vault. [[Note, A Lot Of Ghouls So Be Prepared ---Bring Either CQB (Close Quarters Batttle) Weapons (Shotgun, 10mm Sub-machinegun Or Pistols) Or Melee Weapons (Rebar Hammer, Super Sludge, Or Hatchet {Cleaver})---

Layout
This vault is set up like most other vaults in the Mojave with multiple levels connected by the main elevator. This Vault is still unexplored and information is obtained through a terminal on the 1st Floor/Entrance.

Vault 34 Entrance
The entrance to Vault 34 connects the vault to the Mojave Wasteland. This section consists of:
 * Natural rock to the Mojave.
 * Entrance
 * Atrium
 * Main

Armory
Vault 34's armory is overstocked with a number of various firearms and types of armor. The door to the armory is locked (key required), and must be accessed by using the terminal in the Overseer's office. To get into the Overseer's office, swim underwater and take the utility terminal password from a dead vault technician (under a desk), then go to the door to the left, just before the entrance to the armory, and activate the pump system on the terminal. Now find the security terminal password on another vault technician in a second flooded area, again under a desk. In the once-flooded area, use the security terminal to unlock the door to the Overseer's quarters. Finally, go to the Overseer's office, obtain the password from his body after killing him, and use the terminal in order to unlock the armory. Alternatively, finding the terminal passwords can be avoided altogether, but requires a Science skill of 100.

A very hard locked chest is also in the armory, containing a Pulse Gun.
