Power Armor no longer protecting against Rads after latest content patch.

[James Bluewolf]

After the patch on Tuesday, I've noticed my power armor no longer protects against rads. I've tried removing the paint schemes unequipping and re-equipping parts and repairing everything to top durability and nothing seems to work. I have the Anti rad super perk and everything but no matter what I do if I even step into a nuke zone or say the broken scrubber area during eviction notice my rads count sky rockets and my health bar instantly starts rapidly filling with rad damage.

anyone else having this issue or know of a fix?

My power armor is also rated 850 rad defense as well.

I went picking flowers in a nuke zone in my T65. It appeared to work the same as before.

i'm using the X-1 armor full anti rad super perk...and rad x of course but nope soon as I step into a nuke cloud counter spikes and I start taking on Rads at an alarming rate.

In the past there have been paints that completely break pa resistance but if you get nothing even with no paint. Odd.

Have you tried a different pa type?

I thought that the lead paint would add an extra layer of protection.........

Not if you eat it.

i'm having the same problem with the same power armor, maybe it's specific to the x01?
(not worth using anyway until they add the freaking enclave paint for it, look > utility)

X-01 is busted. Seems that BGS have seperated the paints/skins being the source of damage/radiation reduction and moved it to the armour itself (good move as it makes new skins/paints easier to add). Looks like they missed X-01...

Other notes: Ultracite is listed as T-45 but won't work for things like Funky Duds or Sizzling Style, they are still seperate suits.

T-65 is listed as Secret Service Armor... Scout facemasks no longer count as scout armour. Plans you once knew are all jacked up. Union PA drops but can't be picked up unless you learnt the plan from Guiseppe and not scoreboard...

In the words of Skat Kat "I take two steps forward, I take two steps back"...

Given up on PA. I don't know what they did to navmeshing but it just became impossible to walk around in single floor indoor areas. I constantly got stuck for no reason.

Now i know why i took a lot of rads when entering the reactor room in the silo, the x01 is broken

That's usually due to frame rate being too high. You'll need to software limit it to under 120, if you can.

My X-01 power armor dont even reduce incoming damage. It's like im not wearing any armor at all. Anyone else had this problem?

From what I've seen, no one can pick those up atm. Even if you know the plans.

My Ultracite PA works like it always did.
