Fallout: New Vegas Hints
Alien Blaster
1 of 3: This unique weapon is similar to plasma pistols, but has several differences, including the fact that it does way more damage and always scores critical hits.
2 of 3: The alien who has the blaster will be at secondary location a on the Zone 1 Map if you took the Wild Wasteland trait. Otherwise, there'll be some mercenaries there with the YCS/186.
3 of 3: After you kill all three aliens (preferably from a distance with a scoped weapon), loot the alien captain to find the blaster and about 160 alien power cells. That's all the ammo you'll get for the blaster in the entire game, so make it last.
