Any good ways to kill Deathclaws at low levels?
stacking a bunch of satchel charges, powder charges and frag mines seems to work, but are there other good methods?

I suggest you do a luck 10 build so you can get critical hits easily.

sneaking and getting crits from that can also work, it can be quite dangerous as deathclaws have high perception

You don't need to fight the Deathclaws to reach Vegas.

yeah, and also for the thrill of killing a deathclaw at level 8

I already killed 2 but I'm outta explosives now

I'm guessing a lot of running and screaming could help

High elevation where you cannot be reached, Cripple the leg and watch as a Deathclaw strolls towards you. Explosives and sneak attack criticals speed up the process. If you are planning to melee switch blade plus super slam does the trick. *Mostly if you are doing the GRA challenge Deathclaw Hunter Pro*

Intentionally I have killed a Deathclaw at level 2 in a 1 on 1 melee. Took a few attempts *crippling their legs stops their leaping attacks*but he got ded.

If you don't want to cheese them, simply cripple a leg. A deathclaw with one leg is about 5% as dangerous as a fully mobile one, and can be dealt with super easily.

It doesn't take many AP bullets to cripple a leg, even with low damage weapons with the varmint rifle.

Stand in the car or where the death claw can't reach.
Reduce the difficulty of the game.

Yeah, Deathclaws being alot bigger then human characters.
There can be quite some places where they can't reach you.

Though everytime a Deathclaw realises he/she can't get to me.
They run away into cover! XD

As others have said cripple the legs and they become much more easy to deal with.
