Fallout: New Vegas Hints
How can I wreck all these robots?
1 of 8: You'll probably need to restore your quicksave (or the regular save that the game made for you) and do some preparation. Thankfully, you can still go back the way you came and leave the vault if you haven't sat in the chair yet.
2 of 8: The main thing you're going to need is a Stealth Boy to help you avoid coming under fire.
3 of 8: Get out of the chair before the slideshow is over, then crouch down and move up next to the east wall. When it starts opening up, use the stealth boy, sneak between the robots, and head for the door in the back of their room.
4 of 8: If you can make it through that door, you can turn left and hide in an alcove next to the vault's mainframe. From there, you can peek out and shoot at turrets and robots, ducking back into cover whenever necessary.
5 of 8: Having a follower or two with you to help distract the robots and turrets will help you make it, especially if you don't have a stealth boy to use. You should also be wearing the best armor you can find in case you take any hits on the way to the alcove.
6 of 8: A better strategy would be to get a powerful silenced weapon like a sniper rifle or a 12.7mm submachine gun (see the Silenced Gun Tips), then crouch down near the room's locked exit door after the slideshow starts.
7 of 8: When the walls start to open, use a stealth boy, then start using your silenced weapon. Take down the robots first, then destroy all of the ceiling turrets that you can see from where you are. Hopefully, none of them will start firing back at you.
8 of 8: After you finish off everything you can see from next to the exit door, sneak over to where you can shoot out any remaining turrets.
