Caves

Description

In mountains encounter sometimes you might encounter a map with cave. If you decide to enter one you'll find additional location tied to encounter. All caves are containing lootable bones container. In the bones you can find various items. All caves are also containing some kind of enemies.In addition to that caves are also spawning minerals and ore deposits from which wastelanders armed with Pickaxe may extract resources.On the side note in some caves you can find rock scattered through the floor - if you're rock collector this may be the biggest reason to go there. While exploring caves beware of other players that can easily ambush you.

Cave Types

There is only 6 different maps of caves:

• 

  This is small tunnel type cave.

• 

  Big cave with lots of room to manuver while clearing it.

• 

  Medium sized cave with long entry tunnel.

• 

  Biggest cave map in FOnline 2. I personally hate them since searching through it is tiresome.

• 

  Almost as big as cave type 4. This one is also very tiresome to browse.

• 

  My favorite cave map in FOnline 2. On the screen in place where Tandi stands there is a small choke point allowing defending player to easily beat the cave critters, as only one monster at the time can attack player standing there.

Cave Creatures

As Cave are pretty good shelter for wasteland creatures every one of them is containing some creatures living them. Here's a list of what you might encounter:

• Wolves

Wolf			Vital Statistics	Resistances (DT/DR)	Notes
			61 160 5 1 20 5 7 1	0/0% 0/0% 0/0% 0/0% 0/0% 0/0%	(About 5-8 Wolves per cave) - quite dangerous, fast and capable of being hostile. Their HP's aren't big though so when killing them stuff like Flamer, Rocket Launcher or grenades are advised.

• Abomination

Abomination			Vital Statistics	Resistances (DT/DR)	Notes
			500 1000 40 25 22 25 12 3	10/50% 8/20% 8/40% 8/40% 12/40% 8/40%	(Only 1 per cave) - This weirdly looking creature is moving really quickly. I would say that is nearly as dangerous as deathclaw.

• Silver Geckos

Silver Geckos			Vital Statistics	Resistances (DT/DR)	Notes
			42 80 13 2 6 3 6 1	0/20% 0/20% 0/10% 0/10% 0/20% 0/30%	(5-8 Geckos per cave) - Cute little lizards that usually won't pose any thread. If you have gecko skinning you'll be able to collect their skins as a trophy.

• Radscorpions

Radscorpion			Vital Statistics	Resistances (DT/DR)	Notes
			15 50 3 4 4 2 5 2	0/0% 2/30% 0/10% 0/10% 0/10% 0/15%	(5-8 Radscorpions per cave) - Only the freshest of fresh wastelander would had any problem dealing with those. They left scorpion tail as trophy.

Radscorpion			Vital Statistics	Resistances (DT/DR)	Notes
			35 100 5 6 4 2 7 2	2/0% 4/50% 2/10% 2/10% 2/20% 0/30%	Bigger variant. Still pretty easy.

• Mutated Radscorpions

Mutated Radscorpions			Vital Statistics	Resistances (DT/DR)	Notes
			96 175 8 6 12 5 9 2	2/0% 4/50% 2/10% 2/10% 2/20% 0/30%	(5-8 of those per cave) - There is no small mutated radscorpion so if you encounter cave full of big radscorpions its probably mutated version. They are slightly more dangerous, having more hp and their poison is bit stronger. Just like regular ones you can collect scorpion tails on each dead one.

• Monstrosity

Monstrosity			Vital Statistics	Resistances (DT/DR)	Notes
			600 1000 40 25 22 25 12 3	10/50% 8/20% 8/40% 8/40% 12/40% 8/40%	(only 1 per cave) - Fast deadly and resilient. Just like Abomination this is a dangerous opponent.

• Deathclaw Familly

There is about 5-8 of them per cave - A mix of big deathclaws and small ones. Probably the rarest encounter.

It's also possible to hit only small Deathclaws.

Small Deathclaw			Vital Statistics	Resistances (DT/DR)	Notes
			174 350 5 2 12 5 7 2	2/15% 2/15% 2/15% 0/15% 2/15% 0/15%	A classical small Deathclaw. They are coming in mix with bigger ones.

Deathclaw			Vital Statistics	Resistances (DT/DR)	Notes
			299 750 27 6 19 8 12 2	4/40% 4/40% 3/50% 3/20% 4/20% 3/60%	A rare variant of big deathclaw.

• Alpha Male Deathclaw

Alpha Male Deathclaw			Vital Statistics	Resistances (DT/DR)	Notes
			1001 2500 40 20 22 25 12 2	10/50% 8/20% 8/40% 8/40% 14/40% 8/40%	(1 per cave) - The most dangerous, big and nasty creature that inhabits the caves.

• Rats & Mutated Rats (30 exp for normal, 70 for mutated, 5-8 per cave) - Standard cave rats with supporting them mutated cave rats. Clearing them out is piece of cake.

• Pigrats & Mutated Pigrats (80 exp for normal, 120 for mutated, 5-8 per cave) - A mix of pigrats and mutated pigrats. Sometimes you can hit on 100% mutated pigrats or 100% standard pigrats. Every one of those cases isn't that dangerous.

Ore & Minerals Deposit

Every cave will spawn some resources deposits. A standard pickaxe is required for mining them. The possesing of resources from cave deposits is usually much better idea than using the non-caves ones.

Bones

In every cave you can find bones of long forgotten wastelander. Its spawns a random loot. Here's 50 examples of loot that you can find(click to enlarge)

Note: Unfortunately starting from season 3 the following section of wiki is outdated. The Alien Blaster is currently only found in special encounters, and G11E can be acquired only in Sierra Armory or crafted using rare tier 4 crafting components.
