Talk:Legendary Deathclaw

Vandalism.... (sigh)
Someone thought they were funny by adding 9001, 10 in all stats apart from CH and LK and they gave it a Fallout 2 Template .Don't.Vandalise.Stuff. De Accipitre Deserta 17:36, October 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * Five bucks says it was some stupid Anon -Malus X 02:44, November 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * Great. Looks like someone re-vandalized the stats. -Malus X 10:12, March 23, 2011 (UTC)

"The best way..."
Can we just remove the "here's my advice" sections when we run across them?

I'm tired of reading strategery from every 12 year old who thinks he's the first person who ever killed each particular enemy - it's not like anyone's coming to this page because they can't figure out The Secret to how it dies.CapAp 08:49, November 2, 2010 (UTC)

Seems like everyone wants to give their 2 cents on 'how to kill' this thing... going to be an ongoing cleanup haha --JPro 10:03, November 7, 2010 (UTC)

Killing things isnt much of a challange,surviving it is.Shoot for the head and dont die,problem solved.

Alien Blaster, problem solved... --Pi face dude 19:59, November 16, 2010 (UTC)

Legendary animals question
Do the legendary animals in the game respawn?

No, the Legendary Deathclaw does not respawn, to see this you must check every single character with the GECK and see if the "respawn" flag is checked or not, the legendary deathclaw doesn't have the respawn flag checked. Wertoret 17:32, November 7, 2010 (UTC)

Diablo anyone?
Is it me, or I again found a pop-culture reference? These horns...... damn, it is Diablo! Master Mold 20:11, November 7, 2010 (UTC)

Eeeeh no. Deatclaws appear in the first fallout game, and fallout 1 was released the same year as diablo. So no cultural references there. --Duhsveti 12:42, November 8, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, I know, but I'm not talking about Deathclaws... I'm talking about this one particular legendary deathclaw's horns... which looks bigger than that of its kind. Master Mold 23:16, November 8, 2010 (UTC)

omg! it has horns! Ya know what else has horns, large horns? Fucking everything.--JoeHanSon 02:47, November 13, 2010 (UTC)
 * How is it that when I read that, I saw JoeHanSon imitating Lewis Black while saying it? -Malus X 19:25, November 20, 2010 (UTC)

HA! Too right. It does look hella scary though, I would just hide in my house if I saw one of these (or any deathclaw)at my font door. Thank god it's made of thick-ass wood! TJbrena 16:44, November 29, 2010 (UTC)

Legendary Hunting
There should have been a little quest or something for hunting the legendary beasts of the Mojave. Who knows, there could be a taxidermist or something that doesn't believe they exist, so you whack one, bring its head back, he/she stuffs it and VOILA! A trophy anyone could be proud of! -Malus X 02:42, November 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * Not a bad idea --Pi face dude 20:00, November 16, 2010 (UTC)
 * Well, aside from the lack of a legendary radscorpion and legendary mantis, I think Bleed Me Dry is supposed to be your quest, though I don't think you actually have to kill anything to complete it. Jdw 19:17, March 9, 2011 (UTC)


 * Great idea, and since they already have the rather disgusting and almost totally useless Meat of Champions, not unprecedented. Maybe the script(s) for Meat of Champions could be adapted. Wunengzi 21:54, January 24, 2011 (UTC)
 * Yeah, if only someone from Obsidian or Bethesda would read this :P -Malus X 20:17, November 17, 2010 (UTC)


 * This would make an awesome quest actually. Better yet, have them heads drop-able so I can line them up on a shelf somewhere.
 * Well, What I meant was actually getting the head mounted, like deer or bear heads, and having places in your house/base/fort/cardboard box/etc to place them. -Malus X 19:24, November 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * Or have them craftable into a super deathclaw gauntlet (or other "super" items) with enhanced powers. 174.6.45.126 07:54, December 27, 2010 (UTC)

I think we may have an idea for a future DLC here! Who knows, there just may be a DLC quest to do such a thing. Btron4ever 12:43, November 23, 2010 (UTC)

Well, we could at least ask the people at the FalloutNewVegas Nexus about it, at least we know some of them can get it done. JerichoRCDF 02:57, November 24, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yeah... as amazing as THAT sounds, what about us PS3 players? At least find someone with some pull at Bethesda or Obsidian. -Malus X 19:46, November 28, 2010 (UTC)

Wait!I want a Cardboard box too! TJbrena 16:43, December 9, 2010 (UTC)

Damage Threshold
What is it's actual DT? Because a properly built energy sniper (YCS/186) can inflict a potential 750.4 damage in a single sneak attack critical against a deathclaw, however the actual damage is far less than that. Mictlantecuhtli 00:55, November 12, 2010 (UTC)
 * Looks like about 15 DT. But 850 HP. -- 21:35, November 16, 2010 (UTC)


 * It is indeed 15; I verified it with the Intense Anatomy perk. (And an Anti-Material Rifile does a pretty good job on these guys too; a sneak attack critical headshot left it with 85 HP, and it then conveniently ran over a frag mine.) Cjstokyo 01:19, January 15, 2011 (UTC)

This isnt related to DT but I just killed it with one sneak atck crit with sniper rifle .308 jsp ammo. About 95 guns and better criticals. However I couldnt kill it with my bare hands :(
 * Oh yeah, that JSP ammo is vicious. Even without AP it still cuts through enemies. -- 12:03, November 18, 2010 (UTC)

Companion Exploit Verification
Ummm... I don't know how I'm suppose to verify the exploit of The Deathclaw being stuck behind a unconscious companion, other than the fact that this happened to me. Veronica was knocked out in a narrow tunnel and he was totally blocked off from me. 20 bullets later and he was dead.--Black Artist 21:45, January 31, 2011 (UTC)
