Or just loot the bodies of everyone you kill, sell everything they have, go into a casino then save before you start on a table, and bet the maximum you can on each hand!

Blackjack is the easiest "game" for this.

I made a character with a luck stat of 10, now I'am banned from all casinos. :sadvaultboy:

not sure this is a good way to go,i have done the repair thing too much,i now dont have to loot anything but high sale weapons,it sort of ruined the looting side of the game for me.

theres a point where you have too many caps and nothing to spend them on.

if i used this at the start along with the carry and jury rig perk it would ruin the game really early.

Before you even have a repair level this high, an easy way to start off with a good amount for a starter (about 200 caps) is to just empty out Doc Mitchell(?)'s house and sell it off at the general store.

Honestly, anything past 50,000 caps and you'll probably never spend them all unless you are very frivolous with your spending. Even if you get all 9 implants, you'll still have caps to spend.

Thing is, I actually wish how much money you had in the game somehow effected gameplay. Maybe in the next game, if it's in a "civilized" area, like California, or the commonwealth, or something, then maybe there could be an actual bank system? because walking around with 200,000 currency would be just begging to get thumped over the head, and wake up naked, in a crater, with nothing but your dangly bits to keep you company...

I still stand by my idea to include theft against the PC. IE, you can be stolen from, knocked uncontious, raided, etc. I think the PC (at least in some kind of super-hardcoe mode) should not be immune to the dangers of the waste.

i say caravan.. every available npc.. im in novac with 6k caps. with me now.. (oh.. and i also sell every thing that i loot from dead people)

and easy way to make caps early on is to loot lucies saloon at night..

Also just wander up to powder gangers with a tire iron and beat the crud out of them.. easy money as they cant toss tnt close range.

Victor has unlimited free zero rad water in his shack so you have unlimited free healing there and of course water to quench thirst..

There are a whole mess of grenades near primm if you look around.

You can harvest the plants around goodsprings without any karma hit even when they show as red.. it isnt stealing it seems to harvest a plant.
