How to obtain Maxson’s Battlecoat

Even though the overcoat can be considered a cosmetic item, and many people will want to have it only for the way it looks, it’s also good protection. It offers 50 damage resistance and gives +1 Perception.

Maxson won’t part with this item peacefully, and you can’t steal it either. We’ve tried with Level 4 Pickpocket perk, which allows you to steal equipped items, and the game wouldn’t even give us the pickpocket prompt. The only way to take it is from his lifeless body.

Killing Maxson will cause the Brotherhood to hate you instantly. If you’re planning on being friends with them, you can forget about the coat. If not, you can either wait until you get a quest that involves killing him (like if you side with the Institute), or simply go to Prydwen as soon as it moors and murder him the first time you see him. He’s either lounging on the bridge, or on the terrace outside.
