Mr. Bandit, initially known simply as a Mr. Handy, is a unique Mister Handy found in the Bandit Bot scene-type random encounter in Fallout 76, introduced in the Wild Appalachia update.
Background[]
In the associated random encounter, a seemingly innocent Mister Handy will ask the Vault Dwellers for help, before accosting them, demanding them to drop an item of value or the robot will attack. Dropping an item of meager value, such as junk, will pacify the robot. The robot will then inform the player to leave. Refusing to drop junk or attempting to leave will make the now named Mr. Bandit to turn hostile and attack. Destroying the Mr. Bandit will allow the player to loot the junk given to the robot just beforehand.
