Melee & Explosives > everything.
Really, the only things remotely dangerous are wildlife(yao guai and such), but that gets solved with the animal friend perk. everything else gets stomped on like ants.

Deathclaw can be nasty and i hate fighting super mutant master armed with mini-gun (it's so damn good when the enemy use it).
I found bottlecap mines make killing Deathclaws easy.Originally Posted by Dark Dragon
Wait until you fight the mutant behemoth. Those guys makes the super mutant masters look like mere super mutants in comparison. I had Charon following me when I encountered a behemoth. Charon went aggro and got killed.
“For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?”
I've played through the game like 3 times now and the only time that i ever encountered a behemoth is during the story mission at the radio tower. Is there a place where you can find more of them? would be interesting to try and fight some.
I've found two more. There's one in the Capitol Buidling, and another in the middle of a Raider stronghold (the name of which escapes me), but it's between to the Talon Merc military base and the gas station where the Vault is hidden.
I just Fat Man the hell out of them.
I only encountered two: one is trapped at Paradise Falls where the raiders are, and the other I fought is around the Capitol with a bunch of other mutants. The funny thing is that the behemoth kills the other mutants, which makes it easier to enter the building, but less chance to gain XP.

Paradise Falls is the Slaver compound, we were both thinking of Evergreen Mills.
I see. If you check the fallout3 wiki, it says there are 5 total and tells you where to find them.

I remember finding one just out in the wild. I forgot exactly where, And I was travelling extremely light (lincoln repeater, terrible shotgun, grenades and mines). I used up all my ammo fighting that thing, and still didn't kill it. Charon ended up doing the dirty work.
Damn Microsoft, I might just have to get an Xbox for that sweet, sweet content.
Did anyone try the little glitch that lets you get another follower if you kill off dogmeat with your own hands? I couldn't do it, he's just been there so long =(
Side note, I started a new character on pc version (my first one was on the PS3), but this time i'm playing on Very Hard and doing a melee character.

i finally got a follower last night (sydney) and she doesn't listen when i tell her to stay put... she died so many times and i kept loading up to see if i could keep her alive, having to use most of my stims on her!
dude you should never put intelligence at 1, that kills off your growth rate, and you will NEED your points in melee and medicine if you want an effective melee character. just leave intelligence at 5.
actually i forgot to post the int stat up o.o it was at 4 but in the begining of the game I run to rivit city and get the +1 bobble head to int which gives me 5.
Side note, I edited it in my post now, thanks!
I encountered a death claw finally at lvl 12 or 13.
i used 10+ stim packs and still got raped. should have started on him w\ minigun or missile launcher instead of my laser rifle.
i'm past 50 hours and still see no end in sight yet.
Yeah like I posted earlier they're a bitch to kill and they do a lot of damage. Those are probably the toughest creatures you have to fight, besides the mutant behemoths. I'd suggest laying mines.

so, idk if i found a loop hole or something. Because i thought you were only allowed 1 follower/party member.
But up until last night I was mobbin. I had a 4 man (3man + 1 dog) party going
I had dogmeat, Red, and Star Paladin Cross. Poor dogmeat bit it during the paradise falls invasion ( RIP dogmeat )
I went from being very evil to good / hero of the wastes
Quest NPCs, (like Red, the guy with her, or Sydney or the rangers) may not be affected by the party member limit since you kind of have to bring them with you.
But the Dogmeat and other follower? Yup, that's a well known and easily exploited glitch.
Finished up last night... not sure exact play time but between 60-70 hours
a little anti-climactic. got 2 awesome weapons and then was not able to use them since the game ended.
What two weapons?
