Cazadors, what the hell?

Are these the new vegas cliffracers or something? They do something like 40 damage per hit and have a 100% poison chance. A 10mm pistol with JHP hand loaded roads just tickles them.

They're supposed to be a difficult enemy, be glad you're playing the patched version, cause if you played pre-patch when they spotted you half across the landscape then you'd probably ragequit.

I miss the old ones though... The new ones are pathetic.

It is a http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tarantula_hawk, anything that hunts tarantuls in real life is going to come back messed up when it is mutated.

These [censored]ers are the most annoying thing in New Vegas. They used to be much worse and if you play the DLC (Old World Blues to be precise) they become as easy as a bloatfly

I learned something new today! I thought it was a tarantula mixed with a wasp. :homestar:

I tried to go west from camp McCarran to get to the last ranger station and had to fight 5 groups of cazadors. I guess about 20 in total. I exhausted half of my anti-venom supply and died countless times.

I've never patched my copy so they're still amazing [censored]s. I must say they are quite the oppenents. I tried running past them near Red Rock...poor Frank got stabbed 14 times that day.

Cazadors are really tough at a low level I got killed after like two hits my first playthrough. and another possability is that Caza in spanish I believe means to hunt.
