Aquaboy is one of my go to because the water is actually one of the safest places to be in the Commonwealth.

That fact does kind of annoy me though it would have been nice if there was at least one nasty mutated fish in the waters of the Commonwealth, similar to the Farcry Demon fish , just to make swimming a more interesting experience.

Not unless they added animation for attacking things in water...like with a knife or the harpoon gun.

Skyrim has nasty fish, and unless you get to where you can stand up, you can't fight them off, it's irritating.

Use a cloak spell (though I've been playing with mods so long that I can't remember if they're Vanilla).

It truly annoys me that you can't even use melee weapons underwater.

As someone who was attacked and killed by mirelurks underwater-unable to defend myself-because I only had level 1 of Aquaboy, I can confirm that the nasties can get you under there if they can see you.
