Fog crawlers are creatures in Fallout 76.

Background[]

Fog crawlers are large, mutated creatures, named for their presence in foggy or cloudy coastal regions and islands, where they use the environment to hunt.^{[Non-game 1]} The fog crawlers of coastal Maine are the result of the radioactive fog around Far Harbor altering the local shrimp population,^[1] while the fog crawlers in Appalachia were created as a result of the explosion of the Vault 94 G.E.C.K. This explosion coated the area that would become the Mire with a highly radioactive fog, and rapidly altered the local plant and animal life.^[2]

Characteristics[]

Biology[]

Fog crawlers are large, mutated crustaceans, that live in the deep Fog for which they are named, and are seldom encountered outside of the deadly mist.^{[Non-game 1][1]} Fog crawlers are known to make deep, booming vocalizations as an indicator of their presence. They are also among the strongest and most tenacious foes encountered in their respective areas, combining excellent protection with a generous health pool and the ability to attack at range.

Gameplay attributes[]

The fog crawler's main attacks are slicing with its arms and jabbing with its head. It also has an attack where it jumps up and slams back into the ground, dealing damage to anything caught in the area of effect. This ground slam can deal damage even to targets well above the crawler's height level. Unlike mirelurk queens or super mutant behemoths, fog crawlers lack any form of ranged attack. If their legs are crippled, they will move slower.
