so a suit of combat armor that gives 100 armor in comparison is basically offering 10% of the protection of power armor only. Keep in mind that even power armor that gives 1,000+ armor lets through LOT of damage in survival difficulty vs simple enemies like raiders with pipe rifles. (also makes toughness perk utterly pointless since +10 armor per point from it amounts to basically nothing it seems). I dont know what their armor formula vs damage is in this game but it clearly makes armor other than power armor completely useless.

However, full combat armor vs naked increased my life expectancy by 1.5 seconds.

Then I put on T-45c power armor, repeated 10 times and my life expectancy was 38 seconds on average. Then I put on full combat armor and repeated again 10 times, I lived almost 8.5 seconds on average. I then put on full metal armor and did this same test (repeated 10 times), I lived almost 8 seconds (7.8 to be 'exact'). I died in 7 seconds on average (repeated this 10 times, average lifespan was 7 seconds). I stood point-blank infront of it naked (no armor) and let it attack me. Playing on survival difficulty, I use command console to bring 1 super mutant at my location.

However, the oversized shoulders would provide ample spaced armor protection from various projectiles, both covering the neck joints without restricting mobility, and by adding another layer of armor to go through.Īs with all power armor in the Commonwealth, a power armor frame is required to mount X-01 power armor and spawned pieces can vary from Mk. Similar to the T-60, it appears to have a large blind spot (mainly due to the large shoulder plates) around the arms and back as they rise over the helmet. The power armor bears resemblance to the advanced power armor seen in previous Fallout games.

X-01 power armor provides the greatest defense among all models of power armor featured in Fallout 4.

It improves upon older suits by offering superior protective abilities. It was later engineered by remnants of the U.S. This unique variant is known as the Quantum X-01 power armor, and can be found at Starport Nuka. Military and Nuka-Cola Corporation when the bombs fell. Ī variant of the X-01 power armor was still in testing phases with the scientists at Nuka-World in 2077 as a part of a cooperative initiative between the U.S. The X-01 power armor is a set of power armor created shortly before the bombs fell.
