Some carry more advanced weapons like laser sniper rifles, miniguns or even missile launchers. They attack their opponents most often with rudimentary weapons like pipe rifles, boards or sledgehammers. These armors include a mask fashioned from a propane tank. They wear randomly generated armor made from scrap iron or rubbish that can provide varying degrees protection. Most Huntersville super mutants travel in small, well-organized groups, often led by a much stronger super mutant. In 2103, a super mutant attack was mounted on Fort Atlas, multiplying via an unknown means, and demonstrating threatening attributes to the recently-arrived Brotherhood First Expeditionary Force, who were unfamiliar with them before their arrival. Despite the nature of FEV and its origins as the Pan-Immunity Virion Project, Huntersville super mutant behemoths are susceptible to the Scorched Plague. Many bags of meat are strewn about in the fortifications of super mutants or carried in their inventory. Super mutants are carnivorous and hunt all kinds of creatures and animals, including humans, Scorched and large predators, to devour them or stock their meat to build up reserves. They possess superhuman strength, allowing them to inflict serious damage with melee weapons. The majority of the super mutants will attack the player character, but some super mutants like Grahm are friendly and will even trade with humans. Like Vault 87 and Institute super mutants, Huntersville super mutants can develop into behemoths, which can be seen guarding their main bases. Although they do not use large fortifications like the Vault 87 or the Institute strain super mutants, they can occasionally build small fortresses or take entire buildings. The super mutants of Huntersville are similar to those of Mariposa and the Institute: they have green skin, highly developed musculature, and they are smart enough to build improvised armor from waste or scrap. The Appalachia Super Mutants were created shortly before the Great War, when the local West Tek facility contaminated the river water that ran through Huntersville with a unique strain of FEV as part of an experiment.
