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.
I think that I shall never be
Irradiated as the Glowing Sea
With Danse in tow and Power Armed,
I trode within, thusfar unharmed.
Ghouls and Scorpions did I meet,
All stomped beneath my metal feet
Beyond the borders we did trek,
Found several things we’d not seen yet.
So if you head to places west,
And to the south I must confess,
there is an odd place I did spy,
and things that fell from up on high...
