My most dangerous place in fallout new vegas:
1) Last battle at Legion camp (Not the front, but the last battle): First play through in Normal, none hardcoed I rushed through the game, at level 26, carrying a standard Hunting Rifle, no Hand Load bullets and wearing only a Reinforced Leather Armour, no other helps, just me, Boone and Rex in the camp, got stunned locked by the Ballistic Fists and bullets flying at me from a far, took about 8 reloading saves of different stages of the fight to get through.
Second play though, level 30 on Very Hard and hardcoed with Sniper Rifle and x1.5 DMG bullets, Vault 34 armour, with enclave friends, ED turned into Victor look-a-like, smooth and clean run, took out the Masked dude in two shots, still got stunned by the Ballistics Fists dudes, took about 2 reloads to get through that part.
2) Vault 34: Monsters are close to you, your companions runs off to find monsters, the place gives me a headache due to it's maze like design while you are looking for things, zombies making smoker's sound, constant rad+ and a rusted vault it's just not very beautiful to look at when you stare at it for a bit, no reloading saves but the experience was bad for me, I had to check on Wiki every step of the way to prevent myself from getting lost or need to walk back to collect things I might have miss. I left a weapon in there that requires 100 lock to open, don't want to go back for it.
3) That ROCCOP(something) Test Site, where you have to fly the ghouls to space, funny at first, but a lot of running back and forth, wired Ghoul glowing beautifully with a god-like voice that has a vision to somewhere in space that they might not even reached (suggested when you can improve their cource by 12.5% on a computer), sad and creepy.
Any deathclawas has been easy and disappointing to me. Very Hard +hardcoe @ Wind Cave where the part with a lot of them jump out around a crossed path (just before you turn in the L to see the legend deathclaw), took out the lot of them almost unscratched. The legend dethclaw moving around, shot him on the body instead of head, then he got stuck behind a rock while trying to rush to me, left him alone, kill his friends near him first, finished the rest of them with a few shots, looted some ned launcher and felt totally empty afterwards.
