Summary
Codsworth may start off hisFallout 4journey asa mild-mannered Mr. Handythat’s satisfied to provide help and assistance to the Sole Survivor,but one player managed to make the robot into a terrifyingTerminator-esque machine of death. Even when he hasn’t been fitted with various upgrades and improvement, Codsworth is able to hold his own in battle but admittedly, that’s not his primary function. Unlike the more devasting Mr. Gutsy variant, he doesn’t have the kind of firepower that could take out small squad of raiders on his lonesome.
Over on Reddit, userMrAchillesshared their intimidating version of Codsworth andthe heavily-modded version of the companion looks almost identical to a sinister Automaton fromHelldivers 2.
His levitation system has been replaced wth a pair fair of thick, armored legs while his three appendanges have been stripped down to two, with each arm sporting a devasting saw blade and a set of claws, respectively.Perhaps most impressive is the addition of the skull faceplate which seats neatly inside the Protectron-like chest cavity, making Codsworth resemble a beefy Necron from theWarhammer 40,000universe.

With the expansion, which was originally seen as a disappointing add-on when it launched 2016, the Sole Survivor is able to upgrade their mechanical companions into a variety of different forms. MrAchilles' version of Codsworth is just one of several possibilities when itcomes to improving the Mr. Handy.
It’s worth noting that while it’s certainly not necessary to completely overhaul Codsworth, it’s highly recommended that playerswho want to keep the Mr. Handy by their sideimprove upon his systems. During the early hours of the game,the robot is an fantastic companion thanks in no small part to his deadly buzzsawthat deals an impressive amount of damage. Unfortunately, once stronger enemies begin to crop up,he’s often outmatched, meaning someAutomatronupgrades will go a long way to ensuring his long-term viability.
Fallout 4players wanting to make Codsworth even more unique can also do with the help of community-created mods.Bethesda’s beloved RPG is one of the most modded games on sharing hub Nexus Modsand thanks to the success of Prime Video’sFalloutseries, more and more add-ons are created every day. It seems almost like a given that someone would have created an entire model swap that would repace the polite Mr. Handy with an actual T-800…
