    Get a basic assault rifle that you are for sure going to be lugging around awhile and a basic +5 shock damage weapon mod. Sometimes you need a lot of bullets to kill some of the robots. The earliest in the game you do this the better. I think that Edgewater's general store sell the mod. Put it on the gun and every time you come across a robot, just kill the robots with that gun after spraying them a little first so the shock damage takes effect. Not all of the kills count but they add bonus damage exp when they do. I killed about 40-45 robots with just that gun before it popped. Ludwig on Edgewater has some missions that are great for this in the beginning of the game to start this on. It requires a little patience but it works.

    The shock cannon is a great gun for this. You can get them from Marauders and from orher military based groups.
    Some Vending machines late on in the game sell them too.

    The easiest to pick off are the flying security bots that even on hard mode go down super quick with this cannons.

    If you don't like the cannon, you can buy a mod from vendors (typically Rizzo's or the lady who runs the gun shop on The Groundbreaker). Mod it to an rifle and destroy all the robots you can find.
