Maxson's Battlecoat

Maxson's battlecoat is a unique piece of clothing in Fallout 4.

Characteristics
Maxson's battlecoat is worn by Arthur Maxson, leader of the East Coast Brotherhood of Steel. It is capable of being upgraded with the ballistic weave if the player has unlocked it from Tinker Tom.

Locations
The battlecoat can only be obtained under certain circumstances. Each method requires killing him and taking it from his corpse.


 * The first method is simply killing him aboard The Prydwen at any point after meeting him. Should the player join the Brotherhood and begin the final mission with them, Maxon becomes flagged as essential henceforth, thus he cannot be killed and the coat cannot be obtained.


 * The second method is joining the Institute and progressing through their final mission Airship Down. During this mission, Maxson will appear late in the battle via Vertibird. If the Vertibird is destroyed, he will fight on the ground. This is the last opportunity to obtain the battlecoat that he wears under his power armor. It should be noted that if Liberty Prime has began its attack on the airship, there is a limited amount of time to kill Maxson and loot his corpse before the player is teleported away.
