So i'm level 17-20 (around about that) AND i have Veronica with me, fully eqipped with Power Armor?

But i'm still getting whooped!

Should i not even bother till i get to lvl 30?

Would having the NCR Elite Ranger Armor help?

Me, Veronica and Rex took on 3 deathclaws, we took out one then they both got knocked out, i manged to take out the 2nd one with my ballistic fist, then got the third one down to a quarter health before getting PWND!

ATTENTION!

I have the .esm fix for Veronica so she levels up normally thats not a problem.

well...I'm not the melee kinda guy, so my stratgey will be long range fire, especially at the lvl20 range. Boone and Ed-E will be perfect fight buddies. how you actually do it depends on the surrounding terrians. the best way to do it is to pick a small mount far away from them, and weaken them first with missle weapons and when they all rush to you, just snap them from distance. by the time they actually get to you, they should be all half-dead or already dead.

Or you can pick deathclaws off at a distance without needing to resort to mods to make it easier. May as well hit the "I win" button if you'd resort to that.

It's best to have someone shooting them at a distance if you're going to be there up close and personal with them. Mostly because you are the one they head towards first.

Im currenlty using Ed-E as a companion and I manage to take Death Claws only one at a time by using land mines. (cripple em, then pawn them). Im lvl 9 btw. Anyways how do I know when Ed-E levels up? Thanks.

I already have the companion fixes lol,

I have a sniper rifle as well but my guns skill is ass, my energy weapons is 65 though.

i went deep north, and got mobbed by 4 deathclaws, managed to take out two or three though.
