(SEMI-SPOILER)
Best scare I had was a legendary deathclaw popping up out of nowhere and not the scripted one early on.
I am struggling to ‘get’ the whole ‘legendary’ system. If you can aquire a ‘legendary’ anything at early levels, then how ‘legendary was it’ to begin with? Are we to assume that all these special pieces of hardware that pop up simply were gotten by some loser raider at Lev5 and he became this uber badass because of it?
On the other hand, I’m at level 77 (lots of level grinding) and just got a ‘Legendary lead pipe’ off Gunner.
I have to think either they REALLY misnamed/understood the word “Legendary” or I am totally missing the point. In Skyrim/New Vegas they had it as it made sense. If you encountered a legendary dragon/Deathclaw, you were either high level or somewhere you were too low to belong in and that was the game’s way of guiding your progress.
But here, “Legendary” is everywhere and it makes no sense to me. Not a dealbreaker by any means as I just ignore the whole system now/pretend it doesn’t exist and get on just fine, but confusing for Bethesda.
OOPS, brain outran keyboard.. To complete the thought...
“Are we to assume that all these special pieces of hardware that pop up simply were gotten by some loser raider at Lev5 and he became this uber badass because of it?”
AND WE CAN STILL KILL THEM AT LOWER LEVELS?
I also found a deathclaw early like you...(But then I took an arrow to the...wait no I didnt)... A Legendary. Killed it quickly without power armor or anything special...and I’m not that talented a deathclaw killer.
