Bloatfly (Fallout: New Vegas)

A bloatfly is a mutated insect in the Mojave Wasteland in 2281.

bloatflys appear not so often in Fo:new vegas as in fallout 3

Behavior
Unlike their predecessors in Fallout 3; Bloatflies have become largely docile and territorial. They travel in hives of between four to five. Being weak by nature; their attacks have little effect. The main attack consists of lobbing projectiles of maggots or sputum at the player that can latch on and attempt to burrow under the skin to maturity.

Statistics
Being one of the weakest enemies in Fallout: New Vegas; they are relatively easy to kill in close quarters combat, as it takes few rounds to kill one. However, it can be a bit tricky to hit them from a distance without the assistance of VATS, as they tend to move rapidly in sporadic patterns. Their corpses will generally contain Bloatfly meat which can be used to make Bloatfly slider;a relatively useful consumable.

Bugs

 * (Needs confirmation) When Broken both wings off, the "Daddy longlegs Effect" Will come into place, which the bloatfly will disintegrate, and will still be able to aim in V.A.T.S


 * sometimes in the goodsprings cemetary where they will be "stationary"(not move away from the location) sometimes they can attack goodsprings(not often)

Appearances
Their natural habitat is generally the various tar pits throughout the wasteland.
