Hey everyone, I’m trying to complete one of the daily challenges for my scoreboard, and I need to find an Assaultron. I’ve typically gone to a few specific locations like Strikers Row, Vault Tec University Test Vault Maintenance Area, and Garraham Mining Headquarters, which I thought were reliable spawn points. But lately, I’ve been seeing other robots instead. For example, at Garraham Mining, there’s a Mr. Gutsy instead of the Assaultron Dominator, and at Strikers Row, I’m running into a Robo Brain Tactician that fires an Assaultron beam. The only place where I can still find an Assaultron is at the Test Vault Maintenance Area. Has anyone else experienced this issue with other locations? Are Assaultrons not spawning where they used to or is it just me?

Watoga has definitely been a good hunting ground. You can often find a couple walking along the outer sidewalks, plus if you’ve completed the Mayor For A Day quest, they shouldn’t be hostile either.
You might want to check out the front room of Whitesprings; there’s usually an Assaultron right before the vendors. It used to be a foolproof spot for the daily challenge! Plus, even if you take one out, the area doesn’t go hostile anymore, which is nice.
True that! Makes it so much easier to get those daily challenges done.
If you’re struggling, don’t forget about the outskirts of Watoga. There’s typically a few Assaultrons that spawn along the perimeter. It’s a great spot to check out!
If you’re open to it, you can also try the Whitesprings Mall. It’s another location where I’ve found Assaultrons reliably in the past.
I always hit up the Watoga and Whitesprings areas too. They’re pretty consistent for Assaultron spawns if you keep circling.
I had no idea they don’t go hostile anymore! That’s a game changer for farming Assaultrons.
