dum dum dum,

I remember that boss at the beginning of the game :P I REALLY shoulda kept that suit of power armor, too! I mean, it's early-game power armor, for god's sake . Forget the fact that it's half destroyed.

You can repair it as soon as you get to Sanctuary with the group, or even sooner if you stop at the Red Rocket. Just put it in the power armor stand, make sure there's steel in your inventory or in the workshop inventory, make sure the power armor pieces that are broken are in your inventory, and go over to the power armor stand. Point your pointer at the stand, not the armor, and hit E for Craft. Gives you a menu to customize, repair, and modify your armor.

Ah, thx That'll definitely help on my next playthrough of the game.

What kinda customizations can you make?

early on, not many mods. but as you play through, collect junk and scrap materials, store them at the base workshop, and get ranks of the Armorer perk and a few other perks like Science! and Local Leader, you can heavily modify many things like the defense health, resistances to energy and radiation, individual upgrades to arm, leg, helmet, and torso pieces, paint jobs which also provide benefits, and where you actually want to store the armor if you want to switch bases later.

the highest end-mods for power armor include a rocket-boost jump which you can use to leap at least to the top of a single story building, dependent on how much AP you have on maximum height there, and you take absolutely no fall damage while wearing a suit of power armor in this game. downside is you gotta collect fusion core batteries to keep em running. so i dont wear them except for boss fights and heavy battle storyline missions. i snipe most of my enemies too so i dont generally need that much defense during general travel and looting.

I had about 20 or so fusion cores late early to early mid game now I have about 60 the scourger perk I think it affects the amount you find but I would find like four of them in the ammo boxes, also I am playing the game on normal so that may also be affecting the amount I find and I like to explore, also the fusion cores are ammo for the Gatling laser if you did not know.

Ah, that helps

Wow, they really went all-out with power armour in this game 0_o Power armour used to just be a powerful set of armour, now it's like using a small mech or walker. The fusion cores shouldn't be a problem, though.

Btw, do you know where I can get plasma weaponry at some point? The walkthrough guide I'm using never uses plasma (I asked) and I have no idea what kind of plasma weapons Diamond City has, when they start supplying them, or if they're even any good.

Plasma weapons can be found at level 30 and above I think. I do know that high level gunners carry them and that plasma weapons have their own ammo type you can make an automatic plasma gun, a scatter gun, a sniper and a Palma thrower kind of like a flamethrower and the rifleman and commando perks affect to damage and what mods you have attached to them as well, it is all personal preference.

Ah, thx

Aww yeah, more Deathclaw TFs~!

More interesting tf are also welcome adds variety.

I wonder if there is a mod that lets you play as a deathclaw in any of the games. I know going through that deathclaw cave in New Vegas was quite unsettling.

There's an Animorph mod for Minecraft. The same would be awesome for Fallout 4

I foresee sooo many people dead in the wasteland due to radiation over-exposure.

hopefully mostly raiders, so i dont feel bad about going through to loot em all in my hazmat suit later lol! ^_^

The Nerd in me wants to point out that radiation turns people into ghouls. Deathclaws are mutated chameleons.

Could be an influence from a modified FEV and excessive radiation triggered it.

i think in the Fallout lore, Deathclaws were genetically engineered almost from scratch using a regular lizard as a base specifically to be bio-weapons for the prewar US military, mostly for the people who later became the Enclave post-nuking. they aint FEV as far as i know because all FEV mutated organisms cant naturally reproduce, and deathclaws lay eggs. in Fallout 3 the Enclave is able to control deathclaws via metal helmet things stuck on to their heads so they just attack you rather than everyone in the area. but the wild ones in the various wasteland locales are the result of the caged deathclaws escaping various military and government facilities into the wild during the collapse of society following the nukes. they just mated uncontrollably with no natural predators whatsoever and 200+ years later bam... ultimate predator. thanks a lot pre-war military idiot geniuses...

I'm aware of the lore. I'm just saying you could enhance the perameters of FEV through fanfiction or make up some other mutagenic effect. Hell, I have a lycanthropy serum mod in New Vegas.

;3 well I think he's on his way to becoming a real cutie X3 I wonder how much of his mind he get's to keep X3 he might transform into a playboy lizard man!
