FAQ: [for Dawn of Stealthtenza]
Do I really need the VoidKingseries master .esm?
For Dawn of Stealthtenza, yes. Decisions in the mod will affect all my future mods through it.
How do I start the main quest?
Once loaded, a cinematic wil play. You will then need to be level 15 or above for a rumour to reach you and then start the main quest
What is the recommanded level for Dawn of Stealthtenza?
Around level 18 or more. You can do it earlier, but beware that most of the enemies will have that level 20 in their sleeves.
Is this compatible with...
Freeside Open? Hell No (Seriously guys). Most NV Strip Overhauls? Hell No. Most Hidden Valley Overhauls? Hell yeah! The Someguy series mods? Hell yeah!
This mod is a pile of plasma goo, how can it be connected to the Someguy series!?
Dawn of Stealthtenza is only loosely tied to events and characters from New Vegas Bounties and The Inheritance, with Someguy's blessing. It can serve as a good career start for your courier turned bounty hunter main character, trust me.
I killed Lindy eheh. Where is the treasure?
Congratulations asshole, you killed the only reliable source that could have helped you to find the treasure. Fortunely a message from your conscience displayed to give you clues!
How do I repair the treasure?
- Self Genius path: With Science Skills of 100 and Repair Skills over 80, a new recipe will be added to the Workbench, in its own "Stealthtenza workbench' category. Both the locked armor and helmet can be used alongside countless ingredients to obtain the version you will be able to equip
- Son of Steel path: In Hidden Valley, Scribe Heathen can be met, and will express interest in assisting you in your quest to fix the suit, provided that you are in the Brotherhood good graces (Still in the Dark completed). He will later need a regular Chinese Stealth Armor to cannibalize, two Chinese Sneak Manuals Books for information, and temporarily the G.U.A.N.Y.I.N chip in order to bypass the biometric lock for you.
- Friend of the Followers path: In the Mormon Fort, Doctor Danielle can be asked for help in bypassing the biometric lock of the suit. While she is herself unable to perform the task, she can either point you back to the Son of Steel path, or to the Self Genius path (by providing you a special military book that drastically increase Repair and Science but only with 8+ Intelligence). In alternative, Danielle can also inform you of the existence of Madam Ling, and the "Tribute to the Shi" path.
- Tribute to the Shi path: After speaking with Dr. Danielle, she will reveal the existence of former Shi and black market scientist Madam Ling. Madam Ling can be found in the OSI section of Camp McCarran with her guards, and can be asked to bypass the biometric lock of your armor, but in exchange of 20000 caps. Beware, talk to her with respect.
Once the armor has been "de-springlocked' by one of these means, the quest will progress further, and "shady individuals" will soon appear to try to take the armor from you. Time to collect some trophies!
I got told to "Travel the Mojave", what does that mean exactly?
Exactly what it says. Go play Blackjack, overdose on Psycho, do other quests or hunt Golden Geckos to extinction. But as time pass, concerning rumours will slowly spread and shady individuals will also start appearing...
Can I investigate the shady individuals in the order I want?
Yes.
What about that final boss who punch harder than a deathclaw and is an ubnoxious cunt?
Secondly the cunt is particularly chatty about what you do during the combat... or the unique weapons you point at him!
Is there some sort of post-game content (once the main quest is over)?
How/when do I find Wangliang 71?
After killing one of the shady individual, a radio signal will eventually start broadcasting. Equip GUANYIN to track its location!
In Wangliang 71, where is the key to Kang's Room?
Wait, given the amount of Chinese stuff, some Fallout 3 assets were used, right?
Nope. The textures, meshes, animations and icons of the Chinese pistol and Jingwei sword are still present in NV files, as well as the Chinese Assault Rifle Winterized textures and the Chinese Officer sword textures (in the form of the static in McNamara Office). The Vanguardists bots partially use the Spider Drone skeleton and base model, but all those things were also included in Old Word Blues files (where there was a rifle planned to shoot Spider Drones).
Cool, what about the various Roleplay opportunities and hidden details, what changes?
- With high enough Science and Repair Skills, you can despringlock the Guanyin Armor all by yourself at a workbench, without ever interacting with the Followers, Brotherhood or Black Shenlong
- Scribe Heathen will help you only if you have completed Still in The Dark
- Doctor Danielle's copy of US Covert Operation will grant you dramatic increase in Repair and Science, but only with +8 Intelligence
- All the shady individuals have various unique combat lines activating through uniques methods (they or you crouching, you killing their minions, them being low health, them having a specific weapon)
- Brigham Young is Immortal as long as you don't cripple his head
- Red Skull will progressively get crippled limbs during your combat due to his illness
- If disarmed, Gin Corbett will stun you with flash grenades and run to recover her stashed AMR
- The Lord of Turrets mourn her Turrets
- The final antagonist react to all the Non-DLC Unique weapons used by you during his fight and has special combat lines

- The final antagonist has combat taunts should you heal yourself, crouch, has a unique line when he deploy his shield, and also has a special death animation.
- The final antagonist has different dialogs whereas Mister House stands, has been murdered, or has been replaced by Yes Man
- The final antagonist's robots will only turn hostile after you injure their master, and will be there to stop you from escaping. In all routes (unless you murdered Lindy), Mister Heavenly and one of Protectrons will come to ambush you during the combat to assist their master more actively
- The final antagonist and his robots all use the special particle shields once developed by Poseidon Energy Omicron Facility (read the scattered lore in the location)
- Killing the final antagonist with Wild Wasteland will result in a special Wild Wasteland encounter being unlocked at New Vegas Steel.
- Having repaired the Stealth Armor through the Black Shenlong will lead to different dialogs once their shop opens by the end of the mod
- Scribe Heathen and Doctor Danielle have uniques remarks should you wear the Guanyin Armor or later the Stealthtenza Armor
- Possessing Brigham's Bible enables you to craft "blessed" (Incendiary) 45-70 bullets for his Brush Gun
- The Vanguardists Bots explode upon being destroyed, but not if you use electrifying weaponry.
