Excavator Jetpack
Why cant we equip a jet pack to the excavator power armor? You can slap one on raider armor, how can we not figure out how to put one on the excavator?

Because you're carrying all that extra weight.

Did not work well in the mines for the miners . POP, BAM, on the ceiling and the jet fumes were really bad.

You were never "allowed" to, there was a bug that some people were able to exploit to put a jetpack on the Excavator.

I have one. Only for VIPs though I'm afraid.

From a lore perspective the Excavator was developed for mining based on T-45, it was never made for combat.

Jetpacks are for the combat PAs. It is why I hate the fact they were added to armour. Don't care if it's fun it took away a unique aspect of PA.

Marsupial should be the armour option and jetpack the PA. Cat's out of the bag, run free!

I have an excavator armor for every enemy type. Dont need a jetpack when they cant hurt you.

How do you know which is which? You place all of them and hten get in the right one? I hate that you can't see the armor when it's on the frame. Or perhaps I'm missing something.

Rename the frame.

Raider PA is just old, discarded T series with the armour replaced with scrap metal. It still is at its heart a combat model.

There is also the balance issue. Excavator at the time was the only frame to offer extra carry weight. Not having a jetpack option is the trade off.

If a jetpack is absolutely wanted then you have to make a compromise. What is more important, the carry weight or a crap way to fly and waste fusion cores?

Inspect the frame in your inventory then rename it. Even in the busiest part of eviction notice and cryptid the enemies cant generate enough dps to kill you. I use a vampire flamer and health stays topped off.
