Dead Wind Cavern is a location in the Mojave Wasteland, located near Primm Pass and south of REPCONN Test Site past Harper's Shack. It is home to a wide variety of deathclaws including the legendary deathclaw.

LayoutEdit

The entrance of the cave rests at the end of a long, shallow valley running north east to south west, inclining towards the cave. A small pack of deathclaws and young deathclaws congregates near the entrance, and there are good sniper positions along higher ground to the north west, and lower ground to the north and north east.

Once inside, there should be one or two deathclaws waiting in an area near the entrance. This initial cavern funnels into a single passage which quickly forks left and right. The right fork leads to a long, rectangular hallway/room and contains two or three deathclaws before it dead-ends.

The left fork also opens into a long, rectangular area with another two or three deathclaws. A passageway to the left leads to a hatchery area, containing a deathclaw mother and a few deathclaw babys and the pile of deathclaw eggs needed for the Bleed Me Dry quest. Just past this passageway, after being forced to turn right, is the impassable rubble between this area and the "right fork" from the first split. There's a skeleton and a duffle bag lying up against this rubble, accessible from this side.

The final room of the cavern lies to the left, just before the duffle bag. It should contain two normal deathclaws and the legendary deathclaw. This is also the location of a dead Brotherhood of Steel paladin wearing Brotherhood T-45d power armor and a T-45d power helmet, with a few dozen 40mm grenades on her body (both normal and incendiary varieties). Mercy, a unique 40mm grenade machinegun should be lying beside the body.
