Talent Pool



Talent Pool is a side quest in Fallout: New Vegas. This quest begins with Tommy Torini asking you to gather some new talent for The Tops.

Detailed walkthrough

 * Talk to Swank at The Tops about earning some more caps. He will suggest that you talk with Tommy Torini in the Aces.
 * Tommy Torini at The Aces, located in the Tops casino, needs more performers to get a bigger audience. For each one you bring back, you get 3% of the cut (or 5% with a 50 Barter check) and fame within the Strip.

Recruit these characters one by one and return to Tommy Torini after each recruitment:
 * The Human Comedian: Billy Knight. He is found just outside The Tops casino by the gate leading to the Lucky 38. You can give Billy some confidence to haggle for his worth with Tommy (Requires a 25 Barter check), netting you 90 caps instead of 45. Also, passing a 25 Barter check on Tommy Torini will get you 90 caps instead of 45. If you do both challenges, you will get 150 caps.
 * The Ghoul Comedian: Hadrian. He is found inside Atomic Wrangler casino, and you must convince James Garret to release him from his contract. He can be found on the first floor and upstairs as well during certain times of the day; you will have to wait around for Hadrian to return to the stage at 2 PM to activate the speech to release him from his contract. You first have the option of a 50 Barter check or a 50 Speech check (allowing you to not pay any caps) when talking to James. If you select to pay him, you can try to pass a 35 Barter check to lower the caps to 100, instead of 150 caps. You could also convince him to lower the price to 75 caps if you have done favors for the Garrets. With the Terrifying Presence perk, you can intimidate him into letting Hadrian go for no cost. You can also just kill Garret and then talk to Hadrian. Also, if you completed the quest Wang Dang Atomic Tango, the option to release him is there.
 * The Musician: The Lonesome Drifter. He is found north of El Dorado Dry Lake next to a Sunset Sarsaparilla billboard. Aside from recruiting him, passing a 50 Barter check will enable the player to get the Mysterious Magnum from him.
 * The Singer: Bruce Isaac. He is found on the second floor of the Dino Dee-lite Motel in Novac.
 * Return to Tommy Torini after recruiting each performer to collect your 3% (or 5%) cut.
