I loved the concept of the Assaultron head, however it underperforms in gameplay, and really doesn't seem to fit with the terrifying image of the Assaultron capable of disintegrating a warrior in Power Armor in seconds.
As a result I've made the following modifications:
Increase the base damage to 85 (An Assaultron's Laser blast base damage is 100)
Increased the Charge capacity by 10 (15 total)
Opened up the Legendary Slot for use (I really like Deadeye to balance the current known & unresolved Salvaged Assaultron bug)
Does it Fit the lore?
Notes:
included file for Legendary Modification Continued - Effect Chip Modes - DLC's with 2LM support

ChangeLog:
Update include(s):
-No Self Sadiation
-Damage Out of Range from 0.5 to 0.8 (Match Assaultron)
-Increased Damage to 90 (less than Standard Assaultron still)
-Reduced Actionpoint cost (match Assaultron head)
-Increase magazine to 20 (from 15, or the original of 5)
-Beam duration changed from .25 to 1 (For those that asked for it, Note Duration of the beam does not actually cause more damage)
-I FOUND THE FIX FOR THE VATS AIMING BUG!!!!!!
-Auto disintegration flag upon death ( Customer Enchant, combines the Auto disintegration and Pentration, which makes sense based on Visual and Lore)
-Tested Penetration lining up NPC's and was able to kill Multiples with one Salvo
