How to Find the Ratslayer Sniper in Fallout: New Vegas

As befits a unique weapon, the Ratslayer can only be found in one location. And although it is filled with giant rats, this rifle is worth your effort. So, to find the Ratslayer in Fallout: New Vegas, you need to visit Broc Flower Cave and reach the laboratory there.

This Cave is located south of Novac. Once you get there, you need to climb the hill to find the door leading inside the Cave. This place is quite large and confusing, so you can easily get lost. It is also worth noting that you will often encounter giant rats, so you should take some ammo and other supplies before going to Broc Flower Cave.

Fortunately, there is a fairly simple way for players not to get lost and quickly get to the makeshift laboratory you need. All you have to do is walk along the right wall. Just stick to it and move forward until you find a lab. Finally reaching it, you can pick up the Ratslayer in Fallout: New Vegas.

In addition to the fact that the Ratslayer's stats are higher than the Varmint rifle ones, it also has all the possible modifications. To be more precise, this rifle initially has a night scope, silencer, and extended magazine. It is worth noting that the night scope on the Ratslayer has a magnification of 3.5x. At the same time, the Varmint rifle has only 2.86x.

This way, you can use it for long-range combat, even in dark locations. Here are the Ratslayer's stats:

  • Dmg - 23
  • DPS - 30
  • Crit Multiplier - x5
  • Crit Dmg - 23
  • Ammo - 5.56mm round
