Deathclaw Promontory

 is a location in Fallout: New Vegas; an unmarked area on the east bank of the Colorado River, due east of the Lucky Jim Mine. .

Layout
It is a rough, uneven flat area over a cliff, with a labyrinth of hills, filled with a large number of deathclaws, 20+.

Notable Loot

 * Tri-Beam Laser Rifle (Fallout: New Vegas) and T-51b power armor (Fallout: New Vegas) found on a dead prospector.
 * Remnants power armor found on a dead mercenary.

Tips

 * When attempting to tackle this area, great care must be taken to not attract the attention of too many at once, and risk being obliterated by deathclaws in an open area.


 * This area can be completed around approximately level 14, however it is long and tedious. Many of the deathclaws are unable to get on top of the larger hilly/rock areas in the promontory, so if positioned correctly, one can fire away at the helpless deathclaws until they're all dead. This consumes a ridiculous amount of ammunition, regardless of the power of the weapon, due to the large number of deathclaws in the area.


 * One way of getting through this area with ease is standing on high ground and wielding the Euclid's C-Finder to quickly dispatch a large group of deathclaws.
