Super mutant master

Super mutant masters are the top tier of the regular-sized Vault 87 super mutant enemy class. They are discernible by their fighter pilot headgear and vest with tubes running the girth of their lower torso.

Super mutant masters are overshadowed only by the much larger super mutant overlord and super mutant behemoth. Super mutant masters are rarely alone and generally have super mutant brutes or regular super mutants nearby. They tend to hang around old slaver camps or abandoned towns, and they are rarely out in the open. Some reports suggest they may also be found at abandoned Enclave facilities.

Masters, apart from having some of the strongest weapons super mutants can wield, have 3.6 times as much health as a standard super mutant, or several times as much health as a normal human combatant. At lower levels, it is difficult to take out a master without explosives such as the missile launcher or frag grenades.
