It makes me glad I played LR with my sniper and not my melee/unarmed character
. I have no idea how melee/unarmed would survive. But suddenly peopl4e ant complain about being overpowered

Worst one was when I went in a trailer looking for ammo, one spawned in by me :/ Nowhere to run. Especially since it somehow got in through a wall.
That is what scares me, my last play through I'm going to do is a "Dead is Dead" run with an Unarmed character. I will have laser weapons to back me up but because of my story only laser, not all energy, so I have the weakest ranged backup lol.
they are not messing around. satchel charges will tear them up though. though i did find with Cristine's sniper and better criticals i was able to 2 shot them from stealth. but there are at least two battles were satchel charges were my only way of surviving. played it on hard/hardcoe.
Worked nice for me too, I also have JG armor +3, Baret +5, Light touch and 10 luck, so if I did get noticed iit was still usually 2 shots, like a :ninja:
And Stay Back and a riot shotgun makes deathclaws hilariously easy
I got noticed and swarmed by masked men and deathclaws on the Couriers Mile. I decided to use my Riot shotgun with Magnum ammo, Shotgun surgeon, And stay back. SWEET HOLY HELL. That was the most intense and fun battle ever. :mohawk:
