When do Deathclaws attack in Fallout Shelter?
Deathclaws start attacking your Fallout Shelter once you hit 60 dwellers in your vault if you're playing on Normal mode, and they show no mercy! But if you’re on Survival mode, they start appearing at 35 dwellers, so brace yourself! The best defense is a good offense, so make sure your dwellers are well armed and your vault door is upgraded!

Deathclaws? No big deal, just a hype. Keep your dwellers happy and armed, and you’ll be fine. Also, pets. Don’t forget pets.
I've had my fair share of Deathclaw attacks, they're brutal but manageable. Key strategy? Elevators at the end of each floor to stall them, and your strongest dwellers armed to the teeth at the entrance. Worked for me!
Honestly, just keep your vault population under 60 if you're not ready for the Deathclaw parade. Once you cross that line, it's game on. Best of luck!
