Love that this was always an option. Never managed to survive this strategy without mods or console commands though.

I just ran. Nothing more to it. Didn't stop until I was close to The Strip. Made the game a lot funnier to me to get encounters that you'd typically get earlier on very late.

Haha sometimes the simplest solution is the most effective. Can honestly say I never tried that strategy. Haven’t played in 10ish years though.

I did it on my first playthrough (which I understand was really weird). I started Lonesome Road at level 2, and then spent pretty much all the ammo I got taking out the Deathclaws (and even then it took multiple attempts).

I apparently did the DLC in reverse order (starting with Lonesome Road, then Blue Mountain Blues, and then the Sierra Madre), and never met a Ghoul until after finishing the game and backtracking with an older save.
