| Cazadores may be even more terrifying than people realize. Posted: 15 Mar 2021 10:58 AM PDT So most people who have played FNV know how powerful Cazadores are. Prior to Big MT implants, they rival Deathclaws in terms of danger, and can kill even the strongest Courier in seconds. So I was reading the wiki page on them recently and I noticed that Joshua Sawyer said that they were based off the "Tarantula Hawk Wasp". These Wasps are, to put it mildly, completely horrifying. They have a specific breeding method which involves paralyzing tarantulas with their venom, and laying a single egg in its abdomen. When the larvae hatches, it then proceeds to feed on the spider, while intentionally keeping it alive as long as possible. Their sting is also the second most painful sting on the planet, second only to a Bullet Ant. Based off that, there's a possibility Cazadores don't just sting their victims to death and fly away. Rather, they sting rather large prey (such as Deathclaws or Radscorpions), paralyzing them in tremendous pain, and letting them slowly be eaten alive by a larvae. Now, in terms of evidence, I have two possible pieces. 1) Cazador eggs are pretty much exclusively found on the bodies of cazadores. There's some Eggs in the Sliver Peak mine, but those seem to be an exception, we only find them once in a specific quest. We don't find eggs in the Z-14, or any other Cazador area, just on their bodies. 2) In the Z-14 DNA lab, there are many mutilated bodies behind locked doors, yet when we open them, we only find 1 adult cazadore in each room. It may be a stretch, but it was just an interesting thought that I had. [link] [comments] |

| Pre-War "Appalachia" included six states, not just West Virginia Posted: 15 Mar 2021 05:07 PM PDT For clarification: by Appalachia, I mean what was "Appalachia" before the War, not necessarily the in-game world. While in FO76 we only explore the state of West Virginia, "Appalachia" might actually include five other states based on a poster we see in-game. There are a couple of different names used for the region, including the "Appalachian Territories," "Appalachia Territory," and "Appalachian Territory," as well as the "Territory of Appalachia." It's not made clear what exactly these terms are referring to - is Appalachia a commonwealth? Is it only WV? Why is it a "territory?" However, we do know that Watoga (which is part of Appalachia) is within a commonwealth, per this terminal entry. Onto the main point of this post, though, there's actually a Special Election poster in-game for "Senator of the Appalachia Territories." It's very hard to see, but in the background of the poster are the silhouettes of six states: Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, Ohio, Kentucky, and Tennessee. Here's the original poster, and here's an outline of state borders (credit to /u/gilpo1 for this; NC, PA, and NJ are included just for comparison purposes, they're not in the poster). My theory: "Appalachia" was a commonwealth before the War that included these six states, and its seat of government was in West Virginia. Thoughts? [link] [comments] |
| Would a Brainless Courier be immune to headshots? Posted: 15 Mar 2021 10:57 PM PDT Assuming the Courier left their brain inside Big MT would that mean shooting them in the head wouldn't confer any extra risk compared to being shot anywhere else in their body? [link] [comments] |
| what was life like immediately after the bombs fell? Posted: 16 Mar 2021 04:09 AM PDT not everyone was rushed into a vault, what was it like for the people outside who weren't scorched by nuclear fire? [link] [comments] |

| Legion’s Relationship With the Fiends? Posted: 15 Mar 2021 07:37 PM PDT In Fallout: New Vegas the fiends are a drug junkie raider organization that shares a common enemy with the Legion: the NCR. But what exactly are their relations with the Legion? I have two things to really go off of: Ronald Curtis talks about leaking NCR intelligence to the fiends, revealing the location of a patrol. Possibly a radio line to the fiends? Also, in a legion ending Caesar executes the fiends. Maybe the fiends are like the Khans, willing to join the Legion, or maybe they aren't. Your thoughts?
