Olney sewers

The Old Olney Sewer is the Sewer belonging to the town Old Olney

Location


The location of the Old Olney Sewer is quite difficult to stumble upon, the location is intended as a trap door so to speak, as you enter the Old Olney town a rusted metal will spring down trapping you within a confined space limiting your only viable exit to going through the sewers.

As you are still outside, you can of course also fast travel away, if you are not ready to take on the sewers.

One can also go in through the "exit" manhole, located inside the walls near the southern edge of the city.



Monsters
Old Olney has possibly the most Deathclaws in the whole game; therefore it is best to pack a lot of Stimpaks before you enter, the best possible weapon of choice I would recommend would be the Flamer as you will be taking on multiple Deathclaw's in an extremely confined space. Another weapon choice is the dart gun, which will slow the Death Claws sufficiently to allow you to kill them with another weapon at your leisure. If you're searching for Deathclaw Hands this is properly one of the best locations to check out.

Items
The Old Olney sewer is the only location you can discover the rare Prototype Medic Power Armor.


 * Prototype Medic Power Armor



- You can find this item on the body of a Brotherhood of Steel member, in order to find the body you have to continue on past (south of) the ladder at the very end of the sewers that leads you back to Old Olney. From the ladder to Old Olney found at the souther end of the sewers, pass through a big metal door, then through a normal size metal door to your left into a narrow corridor. There will be a normal metal door to your left, and just beyond, another to your right. Go through the one on the right, which will lead you to two Raider bodies, a skeleton, and the body of a Brotherhood memeber with the armor. Ahead of you is a small cave section of the sewer.

The image on the right shows the area surrounding these three corpses, in this case the corpse has already been looted for the Prototype Medic Power Armor Note: If you leave without the Prototype Medic Power Armor, the armor disappears. (PC&PS3 version) Sometimes neither the Brotherhood body nor the Raiders will appear. Happened to me, I'm standing in the cave spot and there's no bodies. Not far into the main quest at all, and level 12. No idea why they didn't show up.


 * Medic Power Armor Manual

On the body of the same Brotherhood of Steel Initiate, there is a Medic Power Armor Manual. This item is appears as a note which describes how the Prototype Medic Power Armor operates; but otherwise does not affect gameplay nor confer any skills upon the player.


 * Duck and Cover



-If you continue through the cave past the Brotherhood of Steel member's corpse you will come to a small cave section. At the end of the cave section, you will find a skeleton. If you look carefully underneath the skeleton at the very end of the tunnel you will spot a Duck and Cover book.

The image on the right shows the area surrounding the Duck and Cover book.


 * Fat Man

- Located in the southeastern safe storage room.



Points of Interest
The Three Safes

In the second to last room in the sewers; if you take notice of the clock on the wall you will notice there are three safes around it. Each safe has an Average lock pick level. The safes don't have any notable rarities in them and can be overlooked. The one on the bottom right contains a Stealth Boy.
