1355970 Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 (edited) Whenever I see an agressive Assaultron, I kiss my ass goodbye, or cut my losses and immediately reload an earlier save before the fight even begins. These robots are ridiculously overpowered compared to other foes. They are more dangerous than anything else in the game, including Deathclaws and Sentry Bots! Their damage is completely disproportionate, and I think they fully deserve a nerf of at least 300% for all of their attacks. It just doesn't make a nick of sense for me to be able to single handedly dispose of a mixed group of a dozen Feral Ghouls (Stalkers, Roamers, and a Legendary), an entire camp of Super Mutant Brutes and Skirmishers, five Black Bloatflies accompanied by a Legendary Glowing Bloatfly, only to be bitchslapped to oblivion by a stinking generic Assaultron (60% HP to zero by a single melee attack). I hope it's possible to modify the damage of a single NPC type, because I like my modded global damage modifiers just where they are, less damage received or more damage dealth would make the game too easy fighting anything else. Thanks for reading! Edited November 28, 2015 by 1355970 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"melee attack" The laser they shoot out of their heads wasn't even charged up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HillbillyDave Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 (edited) Wat? I never had any issues with Assaultrons except for one legendary one that pinned me in a corner and I took the full beam blast in the face. That beam blast has a really long charge time and is pretty easily dodged (assuming you aren't trapped in a corner lol). You should just git gud. And like feral ghouls, synths, or protectrons, cripple the legs and they can't get you. Edited November 28, 2015 by HillbillyDave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1355970 Posted November 28, 2015 Author Share Posted November 28, 2015 Git gud? I'm killing Deathclaw Alphas in enclosed spaces at lvl17 with 250% damage done to me on survival (Rebalancer by jonnyeah). Does it get any "gudder" than that? There is no defense or tactics against totally disproportionate 1-hit kills, loading screen suggestions don't help with that. Even the Sentry Bot's burst damage is laughable in comparison, because that can be easily counteracted by stacking stimpaks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, they're quick and tough but like I said, use vats to cripple the legs and they're pretty harmless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
