Deathclaw (Fallout 4)

Deathclaws are creatures found in the Commonwealth.

Characteristics
Deathclaws are tough and formidable melee combatants. Their appearance is also more detailed compared to their Fallout 3 and New Vegas predecessors, they have darker, scaled skin and longer horns and claws. The Massachusetts Deathclaws also more physically dynamic, showing abilities such as running on all fours when in combat, or climbing obstacles, behaviors never seen in the deathclaws of previous titles.

Biology
Deathclaws are the result of a pre-War experiment that involved creating a mutation of the Jackson's Chameleon, along with several other species, to use as weapons on the battlefield. They are strong, agile predators that will attack the player on sight. Their long and sharp claws are capable of inflicting great amounts of damage on the player, sometimes deadly (hence their name).

Gameplay attributes
Deathclaws may have the ability to instantly kill the Sole Survivor, as seen in Fallout 4's E3 Showcase in which a deathclaw grapples the player by the neck and shoves its claws into their chest. The Legendary Deathclaw regenerates health by mutating.

The deathclaws are resistant to damage on their dark, scaled parts, leaving the belly as a weak spot which takes increased damage. However, it is not easy to actually hit this weakspot due to the fact that deathclaws usually charge at the Sole Survivor on four legs, leaving the belly well hidden.

Savage deathclaw
A savage deathclaw may be found in Museum of Witchcraft.

Glowing deathclaw
A Glowing Deathclaw can be found on top of the Haymarket Mall

===Alpha deathclaw=== An alpha deathclaw can be encountered by flipping the breaker at the top of the tower in Lynn Woods and the roof of Haymarket Mall.

Also, one can be found hiding in a house in Robotics Pioneer Park. There is also another house with a terminal that can control four protectrons, making the fight slightly easier.
