Cazadores | Fallout Lore

- The world of Fallout has many terrifying and seemingly cosmic creatures pulled from the darkest depths imaginable, genetically engineered lizards standing fifteen feet tall, amalgamations of pulsating flesh, slowly shuffling on legs both human and animal, but sometimes there’s a creature that could be considered normal, roaches, scorpions and flies to name a few, but there is one that stands out from the rest and that is of course the Cazador. But what is a Cazador, how were they made, and where do they come from?

I just abuse 100 sneak pop a stealth boy and abuse sneak crits with christine’s silenced rifle
I feel like everyone's first encounter with a cazador went a bit like this:
1. Sees cazador
2. Think to self, "oh, it's probably similar to the bloat fly! I'll just shoot it In the head in vats and loot its corpse!
3. Shoot cazador
4. Realize mistake
5. Get swarmed
6. Panic
7. Die
You forgot, (*screaming while spamming their wings in VATS to no avail*)
If by 'first encounter', you mean every encounter, I agree.
Pretty much
Yep, that sums up my first few encounters with them lol.
Nope. My response was similar to JonTron seeing the poop rat on FoodFight.
“Oh F*CK, SH*T, C*CK *N Y*UR *SS!”
Cazadores: The things that scare the shit out of you by sneaking up on you early game.
Until you get Boone, then he scares the shit out of you with his kill cams.
Pair up ED-E with Boone and a low-perception player and suddenly you get them shooting at seemingly nothing, long before it's either on your HUD as enemies OR even freaking *rendered*.
Arcade is also a good one to have when dealing with cazadors
@@UserName-gt2xx Yeah, but the Boone/ED-E combo is just too strong perk wise.
"How did I di-- Oh wait, that's just Boone killing someone again."

If the hilariously ineffective results of having your brain removed are anything to go by, Borus's castration threat isn't much to worry about.
He probably did much worse than castrate them. The urge to breed and the lack of an actual brain, prevented them from caring about what would otherwise be an excruciatingly painful sexperience.
He would probably put tesla coils in the sack

They haunted every one of us in our first NV playthrough
Same here
We all went North our first time...
When you engaged them with varmint rifle....
Yes me too
Cazadores were always one of my favorite New Vegas monsters because of how serious you had to take them lest they swarm and kill you within a few seconds
Including deathclaws?
i mean, if it were just that they'd be fine. It's the fact that you have to stock up on a fuck ton of anti-venom to deal with them that's annoying. Once you get stung you're basically dead otherwise.

@Frost E Bear I'm quite aware of the fact they're real, they also rank quite high on Schmidt's Pain Index.
Holy smokes they do exist 😅
@Frost E Bear I live in southern Arizona, and have a crippling fear of bugs, summer time is literally my bane because of those evil fucks
3 cazadors can easily and consistently beat a deathclaw and a nightstalker, as the thorn has told me. OP indeed.
@Frost E Bear I did and a creature that causes holes in your hand took my nightmare focus instead. Thanks a lot.
RIP to all those couriers who turned left of goodsprings.
"What are Cazadores?"
Short answer: they are the one creature that you want heavy freakin weapons trained on at ALL times. They are basically more dangerous then the Deathclaws.
Only vats or melee are effective but the fat man is a bit risky
@@thelonelyranger2112 unless you try to get the jump on the without being spotted by them

My my, this is not the sort of provocative name and pfp that I'm accustomed to seeing in New Vegas vids.

@@Blaze416X By that I meant the best for the Mojave, the Courier isn't specifically said to want to do the right thing for the Mojave.
You feel a little woozy.
It makes sense for the cazadors to lay regular eggs instead of mimicking a tarantula hawk.
Their prey has expanded to include a larger variance in body size, so the process may not work as well as in a tarantula. They also have larger bodies and brains that take longer to develop, meaning that cazadors need parents that stick around the nest to teach the young. This is seen in game as young Cazadors follow their parents around like young predator animals IRL.
I rest my case.
You know the thing that makes me the most uncomfortable them is? thinking about how they might reproduce and if it’s at all similar to the real life counterparts Hawk wasps. (Laying eggs into living prey)
New vegas 2 set 50 years into the future sounds so good.
@Bluenest022 im aware, And actually they don’t kill the tarantulas there venom is a paralytic venom venom that the tarantulas able to survive long enough for the larvae eat the still living tarantula. Hence why I find them frightening. (It Combines two of my fears)
@@YoKhai1221 would it be even worse if i told you it will paralyze your arm or leg where you got stung for up to the 24 hours it takes for it to ware off?
Connor notyerbidness and the only known “remedy” for what to do when stung is to literally just lie down and scream.
i mean might be a horrendous amount of rad scrops and the big fire ants without them. only bad to think about if they lay the eggs in humans :P

Cazadors, the first of two enemies that will get ne to turn around and cry in fear. The other being the Chorus Hunter in Skyrim
Tbh, I'd much rather fight the Chorus Hunter than a Caz.... at least they don't usually swarm you , and after a few levels you can manage them. Caz on the other hand are a pain no matter the level or equipment.
@@jwisemanm Unless you're a stealth pewpew/bangbang 9/10 Perception build, then it's the Cazadores you can snipe EZPZ and the Chorus Hunters that end up being a moment of sheer panic for your archery build unless you're shooting literally every Chorus cocoon you can find from way far.
@@neoqwerty yeah
.. Fair enough. My perception may have been a little skewed by mods.
After some levels chaurus don't pose much of a treat now cazadors in the other hand...
@@neoqwerty Cazadores have a super high perception, so I doubt stealth will do much of anything.
I decided to play New Vegas after watching some of your videos, I saw these and reacted with more terror than when I got attacked by a deathclaw like a minute later.
These things are way worse than deathclaws because of their speed and how they swarm the player.
They are why i keep the heartless perk from big MT
When you first thought these things were just exotic Boatflys...
So I finally convinced my little sister to play this game all the way through. When she started taking the North Route out of Goodsprings after defeating Joe Cobb's gang, I started giggling a little bit but didn't say anything. She told me to knock it off. Then, when she saw the first young cazador (after having taken out a couple bloatflies in Goodsprings' Cemetery), she said "okay, this route doesn't look to hard." I could barely stifle my laughter. To her credit, she managed to take it out with her 9mm sub. Then, no less than FOUR adult Cazadores descended from the fucking cliffside, and I started laughing like a goon as she let out a little squeak of terror and ran in the opposite direction before getting murdered immediately.
Going North of Goodsprings and getting ganked by Cazadores is one of those essential, classic Fallout experiences that everyone who plays this game has, and it made me instantly nostalgic.
Then she said, "Okay, so I guess I'm not going that way. How the hell do I get to Vegas?". I replied, "So, the best way to get there is through this middle path here. You'll know it when you see a crane. Make sure you sneak past the guy in the yellow hard hat..."
Sad that some people so dead set on avoiding the entire early game, especially on their first run. The answer should have been to open the PipBoy and pay attention to the directions given to you by the main quest.
Why lie lol. What did u gain from this obvious bullshit story?
I'm so jealous that you have someone to share the game with irl. I have no one. :'(
@@fifthhorseman1632 you live a sad life
I always thought mutated tarantula hawk it seems like it was combined with a paper wasp it would explain the change in hunting style and the way eggs are laid
I like your thinking! There's definitely something like that or something very similar mixed with their DNA 👍
I would always panic when I'd see a swarm of red dots quickly moving left and right on my compass.
It might be the description for the cazadore "egg" is a bit misleading, and those are cocoons. As in, they've already hatched into larvae, eaten the outside of the corpses (hence the bloody visceral remains in the middle of the rooms) and will hatch into juvenile cazadores.
I like your thinking!
TBH, no deathclaw has every stricken the same fear as a cazadore. You can react quickly and still die by its massive poison damage. Flies, allowing it to travel all terrains extremely quickly and making little sound, giving it the ability to surprise and close the distance in an ambush as well as be fast enough to never allow its prey to get away. An antimaterial rifle is my Ol' reliable for deathclaws as its high damage per shot on a big target is efficient, my best weapon for a cazadore is a companion for it to kill first.
The guy who was video taping so close to that Tarantula Hawk hunting has some balls.
@Bluenest022 Faxx
If he was trying to grab it on the other hand, then yes, he definitely would have some balls, those things harbor one of the most painful stings in the world
@@siraztecasaur1873 not just painful- the pain can last up to 24 hours and will paralyze your arm or leg if thats where you got stung for that period
@@ConnorNotyerbidness yea true, now that you say that
@@ConnorNotyerbidness ya I recall that now, ye it must SUUUUCK!!!
“Once the tarantula stops moving, the wasp will drag it back to her burrow, where she will lay a single egg on the tarantulas forehead.” is what I for some reason thought you were gonna say and I can’t stop laughing about that
There is no other enemy that I hate fighting more than these things. Even when you cripple a Cazador’s wings, it drags itself towards you; even more pissed off than before-if that’s even possible.
I’ll tell you a cazador is
It’s a 6 legged, 4 winged, bug demon from the darkest pit of hell
I was attacked by a Giant Cazadore in Zion Valley once.
I know that feeling brother.

@@onelongwordable something wrong?
@@marbleherogaming735 No, no, it's just.....unique :]
The name "Cazadore" is derived from their scientific name, "Fidgety Winged Bastards". Probably.
Fidgetus Bastardii being the Latin name
It's actually Spanish for "hunter"
I went thru the cazador trail, going from Red Rock Canyon to Jacobstown.
After getting the Platinum Trophy i had 2 remaining personal trails, clear the Cazador Alley and the Deathclaw Promontory, wich i successfully completed, after that i left the game and moved on, but is one of my top 10 favorite games of all time, a remake should happen asap.
Unless you had a fully maintained riot shotgun and enough shells, you can take on the cazadores.
Charging them head on however is still suicide because of how fast they are.
Or dinnerbell
🙄 As if 10mm Submachine guns with HP ammo don’t exist.
In my first encounter i saw their wings from afar and when i noticed how fast they are moving i deemed my bolt action rifle aim not enough and went around them as far as i could. Saved myself unknowingly.
Just gotta say, you put an incredible amount of work into your videos and you single handedly got me back into fallout. You deserve wayyyy more subs and views on your channel.
new vegas content in 2021 is everything to me; thank you
I could only imagine the insanity of throwing one of those into the F.E.V vats with some random creatures like how the master made centaurs
You should seriously consider doing a series on the animals of Fallout, it would be a really fascinating watch!
Having to go get cazadore eggs was the hardest experience in all of New Vegas, I had to drink at least 30 gallons of anti venom just get all the way through them.
I had no idea giant cazadores where a thing. I've played that DLC so many times and energy encountered one
I hate it when you come across a lone cazador. At least when I go up against a horde, I know I'm probably going to die. When I go up against a single one on it's own, it gives me hope that I might survive. Heavy emphasis on "might". Safe to say that they never travel alone.
I kind of forgot they were in the game. Probably because I'd just run away whenever I encounter them.
Cazadores were fucking terrifying

The 1.1k likes are all Chad experienced NV players, the 6 dislikes are those that constantly get their arsed kicked by the Cazadores
I wish bigger Caza’s would pop into smaller ones when you killed them, like the bugs in brotherhood of steel.
Was hoping that would happen at the big empty...
This is cursed
@@Sonicracer100 if I wanted it to be cursed I’d just had the Casador have a 50/50 hit chance of adding a Caza spawn upon death of NPC injured
Imagine taking Boone or any of the others with you to the final mission, they die and the entire map is swarmed with casadors spawning from their corpse.
Kinda like the Ark xenomorph mod where the guy just was in the middle of a face higher orgy, snuck into a enemy camp and 40+ xenomorphs exploded out dorm within him.

At some point yes :)
Accidentally crippling a Cazador's wing in a blind, 40mm grenade filled, panic is probably one of the most helpful things I've accidentally stumbled across.
i have got to say that i have not played fallout too much, i had new vegas on xbox which i played pretty frequently but in the past couple years i've not touched the games too much. still your videos have a real charm to them, they are the same as documentaries/conspiracy theories in the way that they captivate me and i really enjoy binging them in the background while doing something else
Just when i thought my boy went into hibernation he pops up with a banger. Thank you for posting!
I remember my first encounter with one of these beasts. Well, three of them or so. I was like, “yeah, this’ll be easy.”
Then I knew.
I remember taking the wrong road in goodsprings my first playthrough and Victor rolled up and told me no. So I listen to him and start walking back towards town only to turn my head around and see Victor ripped limb from limb by a creature I had never seen before who then faced me and flew forward. I immediately hit vats and Lord have mercy I stopped time with ones face inches from mine.
Having seen tarantula hawks in real life, god knows I would not want to deal with them at this size
