Radoscorpion
Please nerf/get rid of or have an adjustable setting for the Rado-mooch. That thing maes the game almost unplayable.

The power of a RadScorpion is directly linked to the size and level of the room he spawns in. A 3 wide level 3 room will spawn a RadScorpion that 6 well armed dwellers will be lucky to bring down before he moves to another room. In a 2 wide level 1 room, two dwellers with modest weapons can finish off a RadScorpion in a couple of seconds.

In short, don't be in a hurry to upgrade rooms (especially 3 wide rooms). At least not till you can arm the dwellers staffed there with high damage weapons.

I'm really confused about all the complaints about radscorpions. Are all of these people playing in Survival Mode? Because in Normal Mode, they're not any worse than any of the other critters. Maybe a little more annoying, but not anywhere near as bothersome as people make it out to be.

Well, even with normal mode and tier 1 rooms, getting them every 3-5 mins is a very tiresome and not exciting at all. They do need to be nerfed.

Scorpions can be quite annoying if you don't visit the wastelands enough to get a decent amount of weapons, but other than that, they shouldn't really be much of an issue. Just make sure the people in the bigger rooms do at least have somewhat decent weapons before you upgrade them, and that should already do most of the work.

If you have some good extra weapons left, give them to lvl 1ers in training rooms (assuming you have those), otherwise it's really annoying to evacuate those rooms when a lvl 3-3 scorpion jumps there.

That's the #1 reason to never upgrade your training rooms. Even at 3 wide, a RadScorpion won't survive long if the room is level 1.

Just have max stat dwellers or only have max dwellers before radscoprions are meant to appear until you have dwellers with max stats and start leveling them abit
Only issue I have with them is the power they drain but since my rush is 10% risk I can easily get it back up

Just don't rush having so many dwellers in your vault otherwise of course you will struggle.

So you do suggest to get additional and additonal level 1 rooms till the whole vault room is full before even upgrade any room to level 2? Because.. well people, require more water, more food require more rooms require more energy..unless you sit and watch that vault door and the three elevators till christmas and eastern hit the same day..you might not need any rooms wich could spawn monsters...but it could be a boring game, i tell you that :P

they produce enough, you just need to man the rooms and have proper stats

Unless you are constantly failling rushes you would not be getting them every 3-5 mins. And if you need to rush to keep up production, then you need to rebuild your vault.

Having max stat dwellers is not going to help that much, except E, as that increases HP.
What you need are good weapons (e.g: Institute Rifles, or Plasma Guns) to be able to do enough damage to take them down before they move rooms.

by the time you have some maxed dwellers even from level 1 from babies you should easily have the weapons to help deal with them, I never had an issue sending two out for quests to bring back the good stuff as it takes around 1-2 weeks to max out a dwellers stats anyway so I don't know what others have been doing not questing, surely you can sacrifice 2 for quests.

Heck I was on 35 dwellers for some time while I maxed out new dwellers. Just don't rush to have so many in your vault is all.

because questin is work, I don't liek hard work. Explorin is easier, and explorin means full stats.
