Fallout: New Vegas Hints
Eliminate the fire geckos in the caves under the vault.
1 of 5: Go to the north end of the hallway with the two overseer's offices in it and turn left to find a hall with two doors labeled "QUARTERS."
2 of 5: Go through the first one to enter the red sector, then go along the corridor to reach the elevator to the Living Quarters area.
3 of 5: Stay where you are and let a fire gecko come to you, tripping some mines as it does. Finish it off, then go through the nearby door to enter a large room with two more fire geckos.
4 of 5: Kill them, then cross the room and use the big, steaming tunnel to enter the sulphur cave.
5 of 5: Check the local area map for quest arrows marking all of the fire geckos. Make your way through the cave tunnels to find and kill each one of them. (Note that one of the western quest arrows marks a big chunk of microline rock, which you can ignore unless you want to switch to doing Philip Lem's Objectives.)
