Make a character with 7+ Intelligence, 6+ Agility and Perception, 4+ Strength, and tag Speech and Steal. Set everything else as you wish.

Run through the Temple of Trials and talk Cameron out of fighting, then leave Arroyo and head East a little ways, then straight south. Stop at every city and save in case you get attacked and can't run away.

Once you hit the bottom of the map, head west until you hit San Francisco.

When you hit San Francisco, you will need to acquire: 17 Super Stimpacks (can be stolen off Dr. Fung), 2 Psycho and a suit of Power Armor. Steal everything you can from the shop and town guards. You should be able to steal several G-11s and lots of ammo.

Sell stolen goods to Red 888 and Flying Dragon 8 shop owners for CASH, buy goods with cash, save, steal cash off shop owners. Reload if they turn hostile.

Head to the bridge (on right side), set the tanker to go and enjoy the cinematic.

Traverse the maze (the solution is 2, 1, 2, 3, 3, 8, 9 if you look at the rooms in a square pattern with numbers 1-9 arranged left to right, top to bottom.)

Go to the stairs at the top of the map, head down.
