ambushed at robotics pioneer park - BOS/deathclaws/mutants

[NuPe]

i'm progressing steadily through the story and i've hit a snag while on my way to the glowing sea... that snag is in the form of multiple brotherhood vertibirds, a fully equipped brotherhood patrol (5 or so with laser gatlings), 2 skull level deathclaws, and super mutants (including suiciders) with hounds

how the hell do i get past this? i'm only level 15 and all my weapons barely scratch anything that is involved in this clusterF

help?!

[Albedo]

If its the place i think it is, there is an army of robots you can hack and take control of. 5 Protectrons if memory serves. The terminal is in one of the few buildings (although there is a deathclaw in another)

Or, you could just.....go around.

EDIT: also you can shoot the nuke in the mutants hand and it will explode and possibly take out the whole patrol. Only need to hit it once, automatic weapons work well in this regard

You are on the way to the glowing sea and you're only lvl 15 ?! U should level up a bit more for that. Or turn down the difficulty

Don't rush and don't use fast travel.The game is 40% better if you don't use fast travel.

just been through there again... for some reason on my first attempt, something triggered the brotherhood to see me as an enemy, this made another vertibird come along and the patrol spawn

they were friendly this time, didn't fire at me, and i found the protectrons that obliterated the deathclaws

problem solved :)

exactly how high should i be if i'm playing on survival? basic deathclaws one shot me, but the main story is sending me here...

keeps!

that map seems a bit arbitrary, it would even further limit an already limited game... compared to 3/NV

i was level 25 and on normal difficulty but i was in my t60 power armor so i wouldn't die basically the glowing sea at least in my eyes is a death trap and you should always bring someone who can shoot (like nick or danse)

I did not rush the main quest yes, did a lot of exploring to this point of the game.
Now im lvl 84 xD and waiting for first dlc^^

I went a different angle thru to the Glowing Sea. But this event, is it due to two random encounters popping near a location? Cause I've been there and all I saw was one deathclaw I think. Maybe two. I was high level and had finished the game though.

i didn't exactly rush it either, it's not that many quests in so i didn't expect to get an impossible challenge thrown at me so soon
