It doesn't seem as if any of the DLC describes what levels the content is keyed to and I don't want to get it until I need it.

So what level should your character be to play the DLC? Is any of it meant to be played after you finished NV? I'm surprised this type of information isn't clearly labeled with the content.

you can be any lv however you may die and rage quit more often on a low lv i find 20+ to be acceptable

Dead Money - Recommended level is 20.

Honest Hearts - No level recommendation. The difficulty of the enemies in HH are dependant on your level. I beleive. I did HH at 14 and had no problems, plan on doing it again on a different playthrough at level 5.


The DLC, including the unreleased ones; Old World Blues and Lonesome Road, are meant to be played before FNV is beaten. As stated in an interview: The end of New Vegas is the end. There will be no DLC to continue after Hoover Dam.

It depends on what type of challenge your looking for.

The higher your level the easyer it becomes.

I've heard there's dialog from one of the npcs that suggest you should be over lvl8 for HH. Something along the lines of "You sure you wanna do this now? Maybe come back when you're a little more growed up." Or something. I wish I also could remember who found this so I could give them proper credit, but I don't remember that either.

-gunny out.
