You obviously haven't come across too many deathclaws. Cripple their legs and they can't catch you, meaning an easy kill. If you don't cripple them it can fuck you up fast. Crippling arms causes them to a) drop their gun and b) have shittier aim and c) have lower damage if they're using melee weapons. Crippling their head causes them to be stunned for a few moments (as well as possibly worse aim, not sure), and crippling their torso is just a ministun.Slayer_2 said:
Try playing an unarmed character. You'll see how helpful that stun/dropped weapon is.
Nope, only half through the game and re-starting it as of today as I have ignored far too many secondary quests. Unless you mean those blue giant crab things, but again, I just aim for the head/face. Sometimes with a minigun-wielding super mutie, I aim for the gun as it has a better chance of a hit than the head most times, but other than that, I stick to the FPS gamer law: if in doubt, aim for the face.
My first time really set the standard for what kind of character I am in Fallout 3.
The term 'chaotic neutral' is perhaps appropriate.
The first person you run into, I think it was Springvale (I forget her name too), she was being hassled by her pimp and such?
Anyways, the conversation developed normally, and I agreed to help her out, as a decent nice guy and all.. But when she turned her back, I shot her in the back of the head.
Kind of surprised myself as well.
I pillaged her house and went on my merry way. Go figure.

I try to be as evil as possible, and let me tell you there is nothing better than cutting a mans head off in front of his child or gutting a hooked you just boned.
And being a slaver and getting praised by my main man at paradise falls(He's just called slaver but he gives you unlimited items) never gets old.

I've played through F3, and actually haven't seen any Deathclaws either. Where are they?Amnestic said:
As for the chunk-taking, the sound of that in earlier fallouts are still vivid in memory.
Seen some Yao Guai though. First time as a trader's pet.
That. is. badass.
Head up towards Vault 92/Old Olney (pretty far north-north-east, it's the urban looking area on your map). There should be one or two deathclaws around there. You're more likely to bump into them at higher levels though. There's a Deathclaw lair somewhere too, but I haven't found it yet.Chattermouth said:
Oh, well forgive a RPG/Fallout newbie. Normally for me its "enemies there, shoot they ass". How hard can these creatures be? I mean even the supre-super mutie wielding a fire hydrant wasn't that bad with a few of the amoured people and my BB gun, I took it down. Its a plus if the creature is melee only. Killing enemies with melee only is like stealing candy from a baby.
But I've already had to face 5 super-muties at a time, one with an RPG and the others with grenades, rifles and machineguns. They only killed me once and I had a save right before then so not much harm done. You guys make me want to kill some of these bastards. Sounds like an FPS nuts dream. I wonder what they have for loot. And are they people? Because why else would they have a town? I have seen some wannabe gangsta's, wearing spiked clothes and what not, down in the shopping mall, but they were only slightly tougher than the zombies, which are the easiest baddies ever. Two laser pistol shots to the head, that muties dead!
I've blown up and killed, stolen everything I could find. After blowing up Megaton I was "Very evil - Scourge of the wastelands" but after a bit of a wander around the top left of the map killing raiders, I'd collected so many ears, or... fingers, whichever one the bad one was, that when I gave them to the Regulators (there were about 37 earfingers altogether), I was instantly "Very good - Last best hope of humanity".
Despite being a slaver who casually set off a nuke to kill a town.
