Hidden cave near the raider hideout

[Joneleth]

When i cross near the raiders i found a small cave inside there are few raiders and end of the there is a chest inside i found "forgot the name" yk2 pulse rifle also other cool stuffs. Did anyone also find this?

Yeah, it's a rare encounter. And one of the most difficult, depending on your level.
Even an end game character has a good chance to be blown to bits in a single round if raiders right by the entrance are carrying ranged weapons.

When you travel on mountain maps there are possibility of caves, when you enter caves you make a luck roll if you pass it the cave has monsters in it.

one of the possibilities of monsters is Robbers. the robbers 'scale' with your player's level at level 19 they have the best stuff, gauss rifles, turbo plasma rifles, y2k pulse rifles, and the caseless E SMGs.

the chests can also have weapons but usualy its caps and stimpacks. I do recall finding a super sledge in a chest at a lower level.

its just not good odds. or well if I find a cave and its got 50 HP death claw in it that give me 250 XP a kill odds are I'm going to be level 19 before I find a robber cave, just because the other caves give so much easy XP.

These caves can be found everywhere on map mountains right? and you can find again everytime without finding limit? Also outdoorsman skill related with that or only "Luck" bonus? İ remember very well i found this cave first and last time i was 12-15 level and "Luck 10" and i didnt put skill points on outdoorsman. Thanks in advance

yes, everywhere with a cave yes, an enterable cave won't always be robbers inside, but you can find them multiple times.

at level 19+ they are equipped with the gauss rifles and whatnot.

The only thing more dangerous than the robber encounter is the bounty hunters that get sent after you if you're a really bad person.
