Raella Of ALL of the Power Armours, which one is the coolest looking? Which one in best stat-wise. Post both and let me know what you think! ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

I think the coolest looking Power Armour is the Outcast Power Armour, and the one with the best abilities is either T-51b or Ashur's Power Armour. -Raella

Actually, In looks I'd say it'd be the Tesla Armor, it's just so bad ass looking. I even think the stats are just as beneficial as the T-51b, but I never use it otherwise. and Ashur's may be jsut as good stat-wise well. Xdarkdragonx 03:19, 5 April 2009 (UTC)

Personally I think the Tribal Power Armor is the best statistically, since it gives an AP-boost, and I use VATS alot. I like it (and Ashurs Power Armor) by the looks also, but the best looking is actually the regular Brotherhood Armor in my book. Don't know why really, just find it kinda "clean" (in absence of a better word). --KillerIsMe 19:38, 5 April 2009 (UTC)

I think that outcast power armour looks best, it just looks so... badass, and T51b in full condition is the best stat-wise.BTW: i have never worn my T51b, i just killed crowly by using mr.sandman and gave the armor 2 charon straight away.Silent.Killa78 05:24, 8 April 2009 (UTC)

None I still run around in Armoured 101 Vault Suit. I ain't no coward like the rest of ya'll. ^^ Gabriel77cortez 13:16, 8 April 2009 (UTC)

If it were repairable, gimme a suit of T-51b! But since it isn't repairable, I just equip Star Paladin Cross with it, and Charon with the Winterized T-51b. Myself, I just use regular BoS PA.

also maybe combine some armors. I combined (well it's quite not-original but watever) winterised combat helmet with winterised t-51b armor, look pretty cool. gives you more of a feeling of a tank, because now you see the real scale of your head against the size of the power amor. other examples; bos power armor+metal helmet (hey, i'm going to try that one) enclave p o+pre war hatRG (xbox) 17:27, 8 April 2009 (UTC)

I dig the Prototype Medic Armor or the Tesla, but mostly the Medic. TIME TO KICK SOME ASS!NIX510 22:58, 8 April 2009 (UTC)

There is no "best power armor". Most of them take away a point or two from Agility which decreases the efficiency of any Small Gun and the efficiency of sneaking for a crit. I use Ashur's Power Armor with Poplar's Hood to cancel out the Agility penalty.

Sometimes I like using Linden's Outcast Power Armor just for the looks. -Jet-

Winterized T51-B has no agility ding and it does not degrade - looks cool and has the best ongoing DR due to lack of degradation. I think Tesla Armor looks the coolest (also no agility ding). Tribal power armor looks cool and has an AP +15 effect... those are the three suits I wear - BTW Crazy Wolfgang can repair T51-B up to 75% if you invest in his caravan at cantebury commons...

Is it proven the the Winterized T51-B that you get after completing the Op Anchorage mission doesn't degrade? I know that the things you get in the sim glitch don't but I wasn't sure about the armot that's in the armory.Angelonedge 04:33, 21 April 2009 (UTC)

I have worn the Winterized T51-B for an entire play through and it has not degraded at all. The item value and DR have stayed the same throughout. The condition meter stays full. It says on the post in the item section of this wiki that it is actually has an item health of 10 million, which is technically finite, but in gameplay it effectively infinite....Pgoon 04:47, 21 April 2009 (UTC)

Are you on a PC or 360 version?Angelonedge 04:50, 21 April 2009 (UTC)

Sweet I was going to put the armor on Clover when I got her but now I might think about just putting it on myself. Currently I'm using Tesla Armor as I think it looks so badass but with a BOS helmet as I don't like the Enclave helmets. If the Winterized T-51B doesn't degrade though I'll probably just use that so I don't have to worry about repairing.Angelonedge 05:04, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
