Detailed walkthrough
After restoring order to the town of Primm, the Courier must travel to a different location and pass three days without visiting Primm. Once this is done, visit Primm's Vikki and Vance Casino. Upon entering, the Courier will be approached by Layla and her band of thugs, who heard Primm is ripe for the picking.[2] A conversation with Layla will reveal that they are NCR deserters driven off by the news of the Legion's increasing presence on the other side of the river, and had turned to raiding after losing all their money gambling.[3][4]
There are three possible ways to handle the group:
- Convince them that there is law back in Primm with a Speech skill of 30.
- Pay them off with 100 caps (they will accept 50 caps if the Courier does not have 100).
- Fight them.
The combat option is still available after passing the Speech check and the Courier can exclaim that they are deserters and initiate combat.
After they are gone, the Vikki and Vance Casino will open up again and will resume functioning as a normal casino.
Notes
- During conversation, Layla mentions that she and the other deserters will head to New Canaan.[4]
- Ending the quest nonviolently will cause loot in the casino to become unowned and looting them will no longer be considered theft, with the exception of the following:
- Locked door leading to the secured area
- Cash registers in the secured area
- Safes in the secured area
Bugs
NPCs may not appear immediately after Layla and her thugs are gone. Fast travel to other locations, or passing of time, should allow the NPCs to respawn.
