Henzell says...
  1. One of the toughest enemies you can find in the Lair outside of a vault. Melee is not recommended unless you can fight one-on-one or are very tough yourself! (Or have reasonable stabbing and invisibility...even if they wake up, invis stab will take them down quickly)
  2. They're death yaks! They come in packs! They have very strong attacks! Watch your backs, don't relax! Beware of the Death Yaks!
  3. <mikee_> remember death yaks? those death yaks are like death yaks but in the lair
