📋 About This Mod
!!! Requires the Official Automatron Add-on/DLC !!! ...in case that wasn't obvious ;) Update
Uploaded a patch for Armorsmith Extended's Automatron patch. Make sure to place my patch after/below one of my Automatron DLC Legendaries.esp plugins and Armorsmith Automatron.esp in your load order.
Description
Adds the various 'Robot' armor parts (chest, arms and legs), the three helmets (Assaultron, Eyebot and Sentry Bot) and the two melee weapons (Assaultron Blade and Mr Handy Buzz Blade) to the drop lists for legendaries.
I've also made a version that integrates my other mod: Legendary Clothing Loot which adds clothing to the legendary loot lists. In order for it to work you'll have to use it with a mod that adds the legendary mod slot to clothing such as Armorsmith Extended, Legendary Clothes or Better Clothing.
Only install one of the main files.
Compatibility
Firstly there will be a conflict with any mod that alters (rebalancing etc) the actual quest (or its associated loot lists) that spawns the legendary items. The only one I know of is Legendary Loot Rebalanced.
Secondly, unfortunately the helmets and the Buzz Blade were missing the necessary keywords so I've had to add them, which means there will be a conflict with any mod that also modifies those items. Also, Armor and Weapon Keywords Community Resource (AWKCR) adds some keywords to the helmets so I've carried over those changes in the first version making AWKCR a requirement, but I've uploaded a version without AWKCR as well.
Armorsmith Extended's Automatron patch overwrites my changes to the 3 Automatron helmets, so I've uploaded a patch. This patch requires one of my main plugins, so install it as well and make sure to place my patch after/below one of my Automatron DLC Legendaries.esp plugins and Armorsmith Automatron.esp in your load order.
I can make other patches on request.

💡 Beginner Tips
- If you're using a mod manager like Nexus Mods' Vortex, install with one click and let it handle load order.
- Since the mod is from 2016, check if you have the latest Fallout 4 patch—if you experience issues, try placing the mod at the bottom of your load order.
- This mod only affects new drops, so you won't see changes to already-existing loot—start a new playthrough or wait for new legendary spawns.
