Is their an earlier form of power armor before T-45d?If so Id like to see that,maybe it has awsome DT and strength bonus but it has -6 agilaty of something because its so big and bulky.

IDK but i think thats a cool idea, i wouldnt mind seeing some new archaic armor, maybe a lost faction of the brotherhood reappears after decades of banishment, and trys to set a foothold in the Mojave. Maybe they rely on guns instead of energy or plasma weapons. Seeing an older version the the T series armor would be pretty neat i think.

yes but t-45 seems more common with the Brotherhood at least with the east coast Brotherhood.

yes it was very rare(t-51) power armor in fallout 3 but the t-45 was all over the place

I love the way the Remnants Tesla armor looks, it's really cool, it even has a cool tesla ampule on the helmet, something the F3 Tesla Armor lacks.

Wow, I was quite suprised to see the Remnant Tesla Power Armour at the top of the poll as the T-51 Wintereized Power Armour seems to be the one people are talking about the most on here.
Personally I like the look of the BoS T-51, I think it's that one anyway. the more modern one that looks pretty mean but, I've got a soft spot for the Enclaces Tesla Power Armour and that is definitly my favourite just because it looks great!
the fact I like my energy weapons is just the icing on the cake for me.

Someone mention a Vegas style, personalized Power Armour. That's a wicked idea! I think there should be more personalized Power Armour out there, it adds character and is just like trying to find the unique weapons. If they not only looke different but, had different stats and were pimped up that would be awesome!
Even sand camo power armour or the Mohave with increased perception and endurance because you are not affected by the sand blowing in your face on on your armour. I don't know... I think any mask would stop the sand anyway but, you ge the idea. I'm sure you's have some better ideas than that.
Why not list them?

I might Photoshop a mock picture of that Vegas Hussler Power Armour!

Aesthetically I prefer the T45d to the T51b except the shoulder guards. T45d with t51b shoulder guards and t51b be stats would be sweet. :drool:

I do prefer the later Enclave armour to the original power armour because it's far more refined and sinister than the rather goofy looking mark I armour.

I wish there were a larger variety of power armour though; shame the lore really holds that back.. NCR designed armour based around the veteran armour would be awesome.

We need to see some proper Enclave back West. This provides great opportunity for a Hellfire Armor Mk. II. A better aesthetic would definitely make it my favorite armor. My favorite armor at the moment is the Remnants Power Armor. It looks really goofy from behind, but it really does wonders with a Gatling Laser.

I put in console codes for my power armor in new vegas so im currently running around in enclave tesla armor wich is by far the nicest looking power armor

By earlier do you mean in an earlier game because T-45d wasn't around until fallout 3. T-51b was the original power armor in FO1 and FO2, but advanced Power armor (remnants power armor) was the signature armor in FO2 when the enclave came around.

None, because DT is broken.

The 20 percent damage bleed through of the DT system sabotages all forms of power armor. A silenced 22 pistol will do the exact same damage to health when wearing power armor, or reinforced leather. This is just so wrong on so many levels. If I dress up like a walking tank a dinky pop-gun should never do any damage, whatsoever, under any circumstances.

The only time power armor is even remotely useful is the game's final battle. There you have a slight chance of being shot at by an AMR. The rest of the game being shot at by anything with a larger punch than a half broken Cowboy Repeater is very rare.

Power Armor just svcks in 3 and NV, just get the "realistic Power armor" mods that give 90% or 100% reduction in damage that doesn't penetrate the DT. In Fallout 1 and 2 you could wade through every single town aside from Mariposa, LA Vault and Navarro in a good suit of T-51b and a turbo plasma rifle.

And it was canon.


Aesthetically, I really do like the T-45d, but the best of the best is the Enclave's Advanced Power Armor(or Remnants Armor if you prefer). It perfectly resembles the "Bugs that walk on two feet" look they were going for.

I wouldnt mind seeing some Mutant Power Aromor too, I think it would look neat it it was part T-45d parts with some T-51b parts and maybe a mix of other armors, but the big thing would be that it has human skin stretched over the armor with tattoos inked onto it, I think that would be badass lookin!

Well i like the idea, it would give the mutants an edge that I feel they've lost. Anywyas they dont nesesarily have to be wearing it, you could just recover it off a dead mutant that killed a crap load of BOS in a last stand. Kind of like the Remenants armor in NV lol minus the Death Claws.

Imagine something Super Mutant Behemoth sized covered head to toe in Power Armor of even higher quality than the best the Enclave ever had. Now imagine he has a plasma machine gun, two giant swords on each arm for melee, and he can punch a Deatchlaw in half. Now think that he's likely heavily dosed with psycho, mentats, buffout, and pretty much every drug available, and is so powerful he can take on 5 Enclave renegades, The Chosen One and his/her 5 companions, and maybe even a bunch of robots with dual gatling guns.

Alien emperor space suit (better with energy weapons and science) like Alien space suit but it glows pink and it has black cape.

Super Mutants can't wear power armour. Frank in FO2 was Enclave messing around making Armour just for him. He was mostly Robot.

What about the Tribal Power armor from the Pitt, and Outcast power armor? Or are you just not including those? Also the prototype medic power armor in FO3?

That Winterized T-51b was my best friend in the Capital Wasteland...ah, good times.

Even if the PC would be unable to wear it, I'd love to see some super-mutant commando power-armor. Can you imagine it; having a Nightkin decloak in front of you in jet-black armor? They'd have to be hight-level boss creatures that are nearly impervious to to anything but AP rounds from a high powered weapon? Maybe something to make the PC work and plan for a kill with traps and careful placement of companions instead of the usual, mundane fight.
