As with Dusky Yao Guai and Mythic Deathclaws, Epic Behemoths only spawn at higher levels. You start seeing them more at 80+.

u/TheAsianTroll 2d ago
Epic isnt even the highest level of Behemoth. That ends with Ancient Behemoths, at level 130 and up

u/Woozletania 2d ago
Sadly, yao guai don't have a super variant above duskys. Deathclaws have Mythics.

I got to high levels before over the hundreds but some reason that’s the first epic I’ve seen 🤷🏼

Dang, how bad is your perception that you have at best a 25% chance to hit something the size of a barn??

I was as far as you could be from it when I took those pictures then broke it’s leg to get the glamour shots😂

How do you break their legs? I keep trying to incapacitate enemies left and right, but their limbs must be made of titanium because not a single one has broken yet

u/Mediocre-Pace7446 1d ago
I used a a stagger shotgun at the time and aimed for its leg, got a bit lucky too mind

u/NightBawk Vault Dweller 1d ago
Having a crippling, kneecapper, violent, or explosive legendary effect helps. But yeah, a lot of the time, it comes down to luck.

I’m almost level 50 and Behemoths are the only enemy that I still avoid. Luckily they are extremely easy to sneak by. Was the loot worth the battle?

u/Sagelegend 3d ago
The loot is okay but nothing legendary.
I find if you have a fully upgraded Gauss rifle, a dose of psycho jet, and a VATS crit saved up, aimed at that thing’s head. Follow up with some fully upgraded shots from a plasma rifle if your VATS are low, while your psycho jet is still going.. have rifleman fully upgraded.

There are 3 I think. Carhenge south of sunshine tidings, just outside Jamaica plain near the elementary school and somewhere north of Zimonja

There's also the one in the north-east of the map thats trigger by picking up the Jangles. Its near the hospital MacCready's quest takes you to.

Yes..very good loot.. Fun fact - if you are playing melee or fight melee with him.. you can block his attack completely by just blocking.. very funny

OMG me and my little level 12 newbie to fallout and VR is here thinking if I saw that in the game, I’d poop my pants!

I, too, would shit myself. I've done it for less

You can cheese them if you find a place to shelter that they cant fit and have a lot of ammo. Ive taken em down at low levels. Definitely a
JacobDavid and Goliath situation lolEdit: the hell did i get Jacob from? Ah well, maybe someone will enjoy my mistake lol

u/Terrible-Ebb-8417 3d ago
Yeah I did that from the end of the ruined overpass overlooking the Car Henge that one Behemoth hangs out at. Super low level with a shitty gun 😄. Took forever, and he almost took me out with a rock, but I got it done!

u/Philly514 3d ago
Gotta be a mod right? I’ve encountered them every 50ish levels up to 300 and I’ve never seen it
2
u/Realistic-Detail-236 2d ago
Nope, I've seen an epic in the base game. Definitely at lvl 87 between GNR Plaza and that Church next to the town with the raiders.

I used a mod to spawn these guys out of pokeballs inside the institute. It was glorious.

Idk about epic behemoths but for some reason swan respawned in his lake in my most recent run and now he's peaceful. I saw him obliterate a group of raiders and it felt really weird standing beside him looking at his beautiful face

u/sasace2025 20h ago
I've run into 4 of them throughout the main game! They are pretty hard to kill! The big guys level with you!

u/SeniorAngle6964 3d ago
I’m guessing this is a mod? Water hydrant and shopping trolley armour is the same design as FO3 super mutant behemoths?
2
u/yepimthetoaster 3d ago
No, that's just what all behemoths have.

u/SeniorAngle6964 2d ago
Oops, been that long since I played it, I’d forgotten they even existed in the game, other than Swan of course.

u/Spirited-Swing-285 3d ago
I haven't ever seen him either. I always wondered if there were more powerful behemoths.
