Wasteland Power Armour

[dragbody]

Befo,

 

Those shields already exist. They can be ported over from FO3: Wasteland Gear Also, there is a raider power armor that can be ported that may have some of the feel this thread is after.

 

I personally think the idea is kind of silly though. If you read into the history and lore of power armor, it's rather complicated and beyond the scope of being, "restored ... to working condition using junks and bits of other power armour suits." What you would basically have is a big tin can on par with metal armors. Why do you think power armor training is required just to wear the stuff?

 

My advice to the topic starter is what the other people on here have said. If you really want the armor, take the time to learn how to make it yourself. I have no modding experience at all. In less than a week's time I've learned to port Fallout 3 mods to NV, to add containers filled with whatever I want, and create basic world locations. It's really not hard if you just pay attention and have patience.

 

I'm going to make a custom set of armor for myself. I'll share it with you all when I'm happy and done.

I had forgotten about Raider Power Armor, it was a staple for me during FO3 (great for Jericho or Angel). I'll try to pick it apart and see if any of the items will fit on a set of t45d as opposed to the raider armors t51b base.

 

As far as the shields go for wasteland gear, while I like what the author was trying to do, I am looking for a right arm shield so it doesn't conflict with the pipboy display, and also looking for something a little more beat up. The nightkin shield is beat up, bent to shape, and has a nasty point on the end. I think it will suit what I am trying to do with my CPA upgrade.

 

I understand your point about the lore of power armor, but I figure that with a high enough science or repair skill, scrapped together armor could be possible. Lots of other armor sets are just pieced together, including cannon power armor from the Pitt (tribal is mixed t45d with some replacement pieces from other armor suits, like iconoclast i think). Plus, for those of us that play with mods like Powered Power Armor, building/repairing destroyed suits is commonplace.
