Veteran legionaries are members of Caesar's Legion encountered in the Mojave Wasteland in Fallout: New Vegas.
Background[]
As their title implies, a veteran legionary is among the longest serving members of the Legion's military forces, and they have the rank and respect of their subordinates to show for it. While typically held in reserve to safeguard the Legion's territory east of the Colorado River, the threat posed to the Legion by the New California Republic proves great enough that Caesar requires their strength to match.
According to Chief Hanlon, the veterans that come to the Mojave in preparation for the Second Battle of Hoover Dam in late 2281 are from the Red Okie Centuria as well as once being members of the Painted Rock tribe before their assimilation by the Legion.[1]
Characteristics[]
Veteran legionaries have exactly the same health and skill level as prime legionaries, the difference is that their Legion veteran armor offers slightly superior protection compared to Legion prime armor.
Despite their higher rank, Veteran Legionaries are typically equipped with inferior equipment compared to Prime Legionaries, often sharing their loadouts with the lower-ranked Recruit Legionaries despite their implication of better equipment.
