RobCo Facility

The RobCo Facility, owned by RobCo Industries, is located slightly northeast of Tenpenny Tower. The many Protectrons scattered across the D.C. area were once manufactured here.

Inhabitants include many Mole Rats and Radroaches that offer good experience for new players. There are a number of unused Protectrons which remain in their charging stations and several Nuka-Cola machines on the various levels.

Science Skill Requirements: Level 50

After you install the Mainframe Processor, you must reconfigure the Mainframe. If you do not, all the Protectrons in the facility will attack you. You can reconfigure the mainframe to stop (Can't quite fully remember the name) something with the word "Invasion" in it before starting "Pest Eradication". This will make all protectrons friendly and start killing the radroaches and mole rats.

Preferred Weapon of Choice: 10mm Pistol or Repellent Stick
