A Legion ear is a miscellaneous item in Fallout: New Vegas.

Contents 1 Characteristics 2 Locations 3 Notes 4 Bugs

CharacteristicsEdit

Every legion soldier you kill has a chance of having this on his corpse after starting the associated unmarked quest An Ear to the Ground. Private Sexton at Camp Forlorn Hope is organizing a competition to collect them, and will reward you for bringing them to him. For obvious reasons, they will only be in the victim's inventory upon death, unlike the NCR's dogtags. The ears have no other actual uses outside of this quest, although they are weightless if the player would like to "collect" them.

LocationsEdit

Anywhere Legion members are found (after James Sexton has given you the unmarked quest An Ear to the Ground), you will be able to acquire their ears to collect and give back to Pvt. Sexton.

• The Fort
• Cottonwood Cove
• Legion Raid Camp
• Legate's camp (unaccessible until end of game, without the use of exploits, therefore making this location useless for getting Legion ears)
• Nipton, the dead Legionary in the house with the Prototype Mister Gutsy.
• Bloodborne cave, on a dead Legion Recruit.
• Techatticup Mine
• Searchlight fire station - Found on the dead Legionaries there.

NotesEdit

• Legionary Assassins do not drop ears when killed.

BugsEdit

• xbox360 pc The Legion attackers in Boone's companion quest will not have ears on them.
• xbox360 Legionaries found in Legate's Camp will not have ears on them.
• xbox360 The Legionary found in the Nipton house with the hostile Prototype Mister Gutsy will have an ear in his inventory even if the quest is not started.
