Assaultron (Fallout 4)

The assaultron is a type of robot encountered in The Commonwealth in Fallout 4.

Background
The assaultron robot was constructed by RobCo and sold to the US Military as a front-line wartime combatant. It is fast and deadly at close range, and employs a devastating laser at a distance. Some units can even employ stealth technology. Its perception seems to be significantly higher than other enemies', making it nearly impossible to sneak up on and hack without using a stealth boy.

Characteristics
The assaultron's body seems to be modeled after that of a female figure. They are highly aggressive, relatively fast and some will attack the player character on sight. The assaultron's face will become surrounded with red electricity when it is preparing its laser beam attack.

If the assaultron is allowed to charge its laser all the way, which can be halted by killing it or doing enough damage to its head, it will shoot a laser that, if not blocked by an object, will certainly kill its target nearly instantly. For this reason, an assaultron (unless it is the dominator variant, in which its laser will be replaced with a stealth field) should be the first target when engaging a group of hostiles.

It is vulnerable at the legs. However, when these are destroyed, the assaultron will keep on pursuing the target, even if crawling on the ground and if incapacitated enough, will do like the sentry bots and charge a potentially deadly explosion as a last desperate attempt to eliminate the Sole Survivor.

Assaultron dominator
The Dominator variant have a powerful attack that consists of stabbing the target's torso with two swords simultaneously and opening its arms sideways, more often than not, resulting in an one-hit kill.

Locations

 * One leveled Assaultron always spawns in the FEV-Labs in The Institute. This can potentially be one of the hardest assaultrons to face during the game, depending on player skills, as the area where it spawns gives little room for cover from its beam or explosion.
 * A unique assaultron dubbed "The Iron Maiden" always spawns on the robot raceway track.
 * They often spawn near military installations and tend to move around a lot because of their high attack range. When left alone they can often be seen engaging wasteland creatures.

Notable assaultrons
