Fallout: New Vegas Hints
What should I say when I talk to Benny?
1 of 5: The main thing to avoid are dialogue options that provoke Benny into attacking, especially if you're talking to him on the casino's main floor with all his bodyguards nearby.
2 of 5: When he suggests you meet in the Presidential Suite to discuss the situation, you can agree to do so, you can get him to go there with you (Speech 60+), or you can go there after extorting 500 caps from him (Barter 35+).
3 of 5: It's a bad idea to go to the Presidential Suite alone, since Benny will send his four bodyguards to kill you while he makes his escape, and you'll have to chase him all the way to Caesar's fort. It's much more convenient to deal with Benny here and now.
4 of 5: To do that, either convince him to go into the Presidential Suite with you, or conspire with Swank and do the "Assassinate Benny" objective. Either way makes it possible to kill Benny without anyone else turning hostile.
5 of 5: Another option is available if you have the Black Widow perk. Keep choosing Black Widow dialogue options until you get the "Follow Benny to his suite and talk to him" objective.
