What weaponry does it take to fight one of these?

Encountered one today after a nuke drop. I couldn't damage it so I left and returned later and found it deceased. According to the wiki they have 30,000 HP and 400 resistance. Immune to radiation.

Don't waste the ammo unless it's Earle. Unless they've updated they don't drop worthwhile loot. Run the Earle questline to see what an array of players use for the event. There are a number of options but it boils down to ....

strong ones. lol.

A team. Anti-armor helps.

I did Earle once. We had roughly twenty players take twenty-some minutes to bring him down. It didn't help that he kept dropping below the map, but it still was slow whittling him down either way.

You should run it some time with a few seniors; ignore the soloing-videos. Good team cohesion so far as perks helps; for instance one team medic, one to eliminate small mobs (can be same person) and a couple to hammer him with anti-armor heavy weapons. A charisma adrenaline medic works as you can help out with earle after taking out a few wendigos.

Dunno if they've fixed his clipping bug yet but I don't actually hold any hope for that. It only happens maybe 1/30 runs or so, more if it's a rough update.

30,000 rounds of ammo and you get a Bone club or Pipe Pistol.
