(2020) Are assaultrons broken or do I need to "git gud"?

Howdy all, came back to the game recently and leveled up a new character, around level 70 thanks to the double xp giving me a big boost today. I was trying to work through the Alpha Silo and everything was going okay for me until I ran into a high level assaultron. My normal process to to shoot the legs out, but this one seemed to just 100% head laser me. I couldn't manage to get a leg out before she killed me even in x01. After a few tries I just gave up.

So, are they just broken right now or have they always been like that?

Thank you!

They are tough enemies with that laser beam and tricky to handle, so it's not a matter of "gitting gud", honestly. Try again next time and avoid that laser beam at all costs!
