The Sniper's nest is a location in the Mojave Wasteland.
Layout
It is made of three rusty metal sheets with two for the sides and one for the roof. There is enough room for one person to sleep while another is on duty. When facing Cottonwood Cove from inside the structure there is a Very Hard-locked Gun case to the immediate left. There is also a small camouflaged tent immediately in front of the nest with a perfect view of the entire Cottonwood Cove where a sniper could lay hidden and pick off the Legion one by one without detection.
Notable loot
- The Gobi Campaign scout rifle is locked in a very hard Gun case.
- Two ammunition boxes, one in the shack and one on the sniper ledge overlooking Cottonwood Cove.
- .308 round, Sunset Sarsaparilla star bottle cap and healing powder on bench in shack.
Trivia
- This location is mentioned in the note Sniper Nest Location. The note states that whoever that alerted the Legion should get out immediately, due to its location near the Cottonwood Cove. The note also states that there will not be weaponry at the nest, yet the Gobi Campaign scout rifle is found here.
- Even though the location is high enough to recon on Cottonwood Cove, it is hard for a sniper to kill everyone outside, since the map cell the player is in will not register many Legion troops.
Appearances
The Sniper's nest appears in Fallout: New Vegas.
