1. Anglers

Anglers have massive pace but are not that swift when in combat. They are melee creatures with a lot of health, so stay back and peel off their health.

Assaultrons are very aggressive and pursue their victims until they are dead. Not only that, but they can also become invisible so make sure that you are very careful when it comes to Assaultrons.

3. Bee Swarms

These swarms cannot harm you much, and using energy, melee weapons, and explosive weapons can be great against them.

4. Behemoths

Behemoths have a lot of tank stats and are melee based. They can close their distance to you and you must avoid their damage as you deal your own. Do not fall back too much, as Behemoths can throw projectiles when you are too far away.

These flies can be a massive nuisance but are not that hard to kill. Use V.A.T.S to make short work of them.

6. Bloodbugs

They are very easy to kill.
