Philosophical Combat Questions

[Moksha8088]

1. If a Molerat and a Skeever were pitted in combat, which would win?

 

2. What about a Feral Ghoul and a Draugr?

 

3. What about a Legendary Deathclaw and a Legendary Dragon?

 

4. What about Vilja, Willow, and Heather Casdin vs a Legendary Deathclaw and Dragon?

1. Method - mass-battle simulations over different terrain and scenarios;

outcome, Molerat wins more often than skeever.

2. Method - as above, though with a comparative baseline from their statblocks.

outcome draugr wins more often than feral ghoul

though terrain and numbers were more of a factor.

3. this was difficult to simulate, the Dragon seems to win

with the Deathclaw's AI pathing being the factor;

terrain nerfs the dragon in semi-indoor settings.

4. those 3 vs 1 x deathclaw, 1 x dragon,

those 3 win, though 2 are downed.

Montky, those results are not surprising. The Molerat looked tougher than the Skeever, but I wondered if perhaps eating two hundred-year-old Salisbury steaks had taken a health toll and weakened the Molerat.

 

Dragons could always flame those Deathclaws while remaining out of reach, so that makes sense.

 

Was Vilja or Heather the last one standing? I know Vilja could take Inigo, Boone or MacCready in an arm wrestle.
