The El Dorado substation is a power sub-station near HELIOS One, occupied by the New California Republic (NCR). Located south-west of Vault 11, north-west of El Dorado Dry Lake and to the north of HELIOS One.

Layout

The location consists of a single building and a large array of transformers. The building itself is a tall concrete structure with a garage door entrance and a barricaded side door. In front of the building, on its east side is an empty dumpster and several feet from the north side's outer wall is a collapsed power line frame. There are eight NCR troopers guarding the area, one being a sergeant, some of which may be sleeping in the building.

As you approach the building you are told by a guard not to enter the building or fenced-in area. If they catch you doing either, they will shoot on sight.

Inhabitants

Notes

  • The friendly trooper, once triggered to approach you, will chase you until she can deliver the message, even all the way to the gates of Freeside.
  • The soldiers and the sergeant respawn if killed.
  • No matter your reputation with the NCR, the troopers will not allow you to enter either restricted area.
  • Using the override chip, even if you do it without getting caught, will result in NCR infamy, albeit a trivial amount that won't change your standing on its own.

Appearances
