How do you mod Ada?

[Duke Flapjack]

Ada is one of my favorite companions (especially after I discovered the Robots are Secondary Companions mod) and I usually run around with her, Dogmeat, Heather, and Valentine (we are the A-Team). Usually I turn her into an eyebot using the Automotron Eyebot Companion mod, but I'm curious just how other people mod her. Do you keep her as an assaultron? A juggernaut of a sentry bot? A robo brain? I'm curious.

As far as know you can mod Ada ( like the rest of the 'bots in this game ) via a robot workbench . they come available to use after you start the first quest with her / it .

I leave Ada as it is, I build my own, it's Acronym is BABB'S.... Stands for Big Ass Battle Bot Sentry! Twin Nukes, exploding bullets an stealth blade..along with mesmatron attack.

my usual build is a assaultron with the laser head cause that with max armor is not possible to get stopped by anything, however thats why i usually leave her at the castle after i had some fun with that for the defend missions there and dont use her otherwise.

ive also already made the best i could in QoL for myself with mr handy legs cause they are just the least in the way (sentry bot legs OMFG) and make a sound thats not annoying (looking at you, robo brain legs) Sentry bot body cause its the best one from stats unless you want Mr handys body for the added melee possibility with 3 saws next to the 2 fighting arms. sadly needed to use the robo brain cause of its stats but if i would just go for the looks prolly protectron (Sentry bot head also is neat however i really really hate the red light), and for the weapons just the best melee and best range that cant be destroyed in combat.

Wouldn't that be absolute FPS gore when fighting inside? I can't imagine the flurry of havok'ed stuff flying around when twin nukes start getting tossed.

Excatly, u get a satisfying twin whistle, then a wet splatty sound, and u realise ya troubles over, only trouble is finding the body's outside. U GOTTA see the twin plumes of smoke Just dont forget to invest in the perk that makes u immune to companion weapons, u have no idea, how annoying it is being blown up by ya own nukes....

Why would you want to run around with 4 followers though?

Because I can. They get in the way in really tight corridors, but not *too* badly. I also enjoy having a lot of company while I wander around. I try not to fast travel anywhere.

EDIT: just to add on to this, each team member has their own speciality. Currently I'm running with Dogmeat (who's skill is being the bestest of boys unless he's trying to wedge himself in between me and a steamer trunk), Ada who is the recon unit and portable lamp, and Heather Casdin who is an absolute badass with a rifle. Eventually I'll add Valentine to the team because I really like him and he'll be my CQC Thompson gunner.

You asked for what people do with ADA. I relegate that annoying robot to the Mechanist Lair as soon as the DLC is over. ADA is impossible to sneak with, and constantly jumps in front of me when trying to shoot. She does it much quicker than human companions. She also is the most opinionated companion in the game. She literally comments on everything I do. Now, if I could just destroy Jezebel after it's over the Commonwealth would be perfect.
