I just finished stretching out my neutrality. Every main-quest decision I make from now on will permanently lock other endgames.

No. Either make weapon repair kits or get a ton of caps to repair them.

Or have ED-E fix them, if you have the DLC.

That free daily repair is really handy.

I hate House for ordering me to kill them ;_;

Great game, I preferred Fallout 3 though. New vegas did have better designing. Except for the Strip, what a disappointment.

Yeah, I hope the next Fallout has some pretty cool DLC.

Oh, but it doesn't matter. As I just mentioned, I have a save-file that's basically the crossroads. From that point onwards the decision I make will lock out faction endings.

So now I can do some sidequests, DLCs and postpone the inevitable.

Meh, I'll just do the House/Caesar questlines for completion, and actually stick with either the NCR or Independence questline. Probably the latter.

Either find Raul in his loner shack or there's an NCR base in the bottem left corner of the map that repairs anything to 100%.
It's what I usually do if I can't find enough scrap spares to use.

Been playing the game to shreds, and recently tried out a couple glitches in Goodsprings. If you choose to side with the Powder Gangers, after you kill Ringo you'll be tasked to get supplies from Chet and Doc Mitchell. If you kill the head Powder Ganger, Chet and the Doc will be locked in their dialogue options, giving an infinite XP, cap, and leather armour/9mm fountain in Chet and infinite XP and weightless Spare Medical Supplies from the Doc.

If you haven't left the tutorial area yet, you can do this all the way to Level 50 and boost your perks through another glitch. When you leave the tutorial area, you're busted back down to Level 1 but quite a few of the post-Level-2 perks will stay on (I chose to rebuild my character to re-select my two starting perks, so I don't know if the glitch works if you just choose to continue on). This allows you to get more perks than you normally would, and frees up quite a few levels for things like Intense Training (so you can max out stats like Luck quickly without worrying about losing other perks). There's a full list of affected perks on Nukapedia, and it rather hilariously includes most, if not all, of the DLC perks. I also ended up shooting back up to Level 47.5 immediately after leaving.

Word of warning though: Although Tag! is an affected perk, choosing to rebuild your character will cause you to go back to having only three tagged skills. The game won't let you continue on to perks until you've un-tagged one of them, so be sure you don't un-tag a skill you want to focus on. That said, if you shoot up to 47.5 like I did you shouldn't have much trouble maxing out most of your skills anyway.

Whatever you want as long as you have the caps for it. The more busted and rare the item is the more it costs to repair it though.
That's why I always stockpile a ton of weapons to use for parts.

I would use AP rounds but I only have 3 of them, and I have less than 50 JSP rounds. Yet I have over 550 regular .308 rounds.
Isn't Christines COS Rifle in Little Yangtze? I think it's in one of the towers there....I also don't have the Explorer perk so I don't remember where Little Yangtze is.
