* Fixing the Chryslus Highwayman. After spending hours struggling in the harsh wastes and facing hordes of enemies, fixing up that old car and seeing your little red dot zoom around the map while [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3jxn1sqAQ-c this]] theme plays in the background is outright cathartic

* The first time you ever use Goris in combat, he [[TheCoatsAreOff removes his cloak]] to reveal... [[spoiler:He's a Deathclaw!]]
* Pretending to be an Enclave recruit to gain access inside Navarro - First thing you encounter is a pissed off [[DrillSergeantNasty Dornan]] who chews you out. Then he orders [[spoiler:you to go to the armory to get yourself a ridiculously powerful suit Enclave power armor which doubles as a disguise on any Enclave instalment, including [[TheVeryDefinitelyFinalDungeon the Oil Rig]]]]. Thanks, guys!
* In [[CrapsaccharineWorld Vault City]], there's a woman whose husband started a fight in the bar outside the city proper and was [[MadeASlave forced to become a Servant]] to pay for the damages. To be able to save the man, you have to get into the city. With [[GuileHero a high-Intelligence and high-Speech character]], it's possible to [[spoiler:talk a minor functionary into selling you fake citizenship papers to get into the city, extort more money than you paid by pointing out that he just gave you evidence he's selling false papers]], talk your way past the guards, and convince the guy in charge at the Servant Allocation Center to let the guy go by making up a medical condition whose symptoms are basically "doesn't enjoy being a slave". At the end, you'll have more money than you started with, the eternal gratitude of the reunited couple, and near-total access to Vault City.

** Alternatively, the Chosen One, a backwards, uneducated, untrained tribal, infiltrating the Enclave Oil Rig, wearing a suit of Enclave power armor simply strolls right in without harassment. Finds their friends and family, and keeps going. Eventually finding the president and assassinating him without anyone realizing it. Afterwards talking the head Enclave scientist into releasing the FEV virus into the ventilation system killing every Enclave citizen not currently in power armor or the government. Then proceeding to cause the Oil Rig's reactor to go critical and making a break for the exit. Just before escaping, the Chosen One encounters an Enclave squad and convinces them to aid him/her killing Horrigan in exchange for a seat on the escape boat. Then in the final battle, it's Horrigan vs. the Chosen One, their small entourage of followers left in the entrance, and a squad of Enclave soldiers armed with some of the best weapons in the game. Roughly an equal fight, then the Chosen One turns the entire Oil Rig against Horrigan by setting the turrets against him. With that, the Enclave is eradicated possibly without the Chosen One ever personally firing a shot.
