I have yet to do Lonesome road and I am concerned about one of my characters in particular. He uses light armor, is crit focused, and uses the Embrace of the Mantis King. I play on hardcoe normal difficulty.

I hear the DLC is thick with deathclaws, which concerns me. I can take 3 on if I get drugged up first, but addiction svcks and would be likely if what I hear is true.

I also am wondering about this character in particular as the Fist of Rawr is to be his ultimate weapon, so I definitely want to take down rawr.

Also, this character does not do much sneaking, more of a charge in and tear **** up. Relies on speed and being a crazy crit monster lol!

He also has a secondary in explosives, and I have heard good things about red glare. How soon do you get your hands on it? Do you get it before you have to face swarms of deathclaws?

Also, by the time he reaches this DLC he should have nuka chemist and mad bomber perks and as such will have piles of nuka grenades.

Lastly, what is the earliest a character such as this could survive lonesome road? or at least survive far enough to reach rawr. I have beaten the other DLC's on other characters, and if I can get the fist of rawr sooner than later that would be great, as I would rather not just have it for the tail end of the game. I would rather have more time to enjoy it.
