I need to use the robot workbench to install the M-SAT into a robot of my choice. I should speak to Ada about my next move. I discovered the Mechanist's lair has a hidden entrance in the old RobCo Sales and Service building. Afterward, speak to Ada to finally give her closure on her friend's untimely deaths. Enter the Mechanist's mainframe and take control of the facility by cancelling the security alert with the master control terminal.Speaking to her again will award her armor and helmet, as she will give up the mantel of the Mechanist, and will also provide the radiant side quest, Rogue Robot, which will send the party against robots out in the Commonwealth, that are still attacking innocents.She will award the Sole Survivor the password to her mainframe, wishing it be in their hands. The Mechanist will take off the Mechanist helmet, revealing herself as a woman named Isabel Cruz.Otherwise, the Silver Shroud dialogue will bypass the challenge, and the hostilities will end, with both the Mechanist and Sparks becoming permanent allies. Should the Sole Survivor not portray themselves as the Silver Shroud, they will need to pass a Speech challenge in order to end the confrontation peacefully.As the waves are defeated, one after another, the power will begin to fail, forcing the Mechanist to eventually confront the party personally, in which the Sole Survivor will have a chance to end this confrontation, either by force, or through a silver tongue.There will be a brief moment to speak with the Mechanist, either normally, or by speaking as the Silver Shroud, should the Sole Survivor be wearing the costume, yet the Mechanist will always send the robotic waves against them. Upon dealing with the robotic guards, the party will eventually reach the control room, where the Mechanist and their sidekick eyebot, Sparks, will spring an ambush, and send wave after wave of robots against them.Once inside, the party, utilizing the M-SAT, which much be attached to a robot in the party, will continually need to activate several devices throughout the facility, all of which will reveal more of the path that leads to the Mechanist.Upon securing the tech necessary to gain access to the Mechanist's lair, after dealing with Jezebel, the party will finally be ready to stop the Mechanist, who is based out of the RobCo sales and service center.Gaining the knowledge necessary to both infiltrate the Mechanist's lair, and deal with them personally, the Sole Survivor and party travel to the RobCo sales and service center, which turned out to be a front for its inner, nefarious purposes.
