PA and Adamantium Skeleton

[Zawarudo]

Hey guys, do perks such as adamantium skeleton, lone wanderer, toughness and moving target get applied to the power armor ? Or once ur inside a PA they only count against damage that..."pierce" it reducing your hp?

I mean since the armor u wear doesnt count anymore... I take it perks that increase damage resistance are added to the power armor instead... right?

Just imagine 50% damage reduction on power armor limbs would be insane! :D

the PA dont negates u bodystates and skills, and the perks are skills and bodystate modfierers, so i dont see why they shoud get nullified by PA. u dont wear u skills over u body

I found this on redit:

"That's not true, it is a damage based system to limbs like all fallouts, but with the new power armor system you no longer take limb damage in power armor and it applies to the armor durability of the limbs themselves. It seems like a natural extension of the perk, and that would make the perk much more useful than it seems. I was curious if anyone had first hand experience with this perk to shed some light on it."

I never got crippled inside Power Armor... so maybe power armor is giving 100% limb dmg resistance already...

But in the other hand... maybe this perk increases PA damage resistance in some way?

What a mess... Im clueless!.

I don't remember ever getting limb damage in PA.

you get limb dmg vom overencumbrance in pa in survival as example, but as long you wear the pa you dont suffer the effects from the crippling and dont wimp. also got sometimes limb dmg from rockets and such things in pa (when i survived them at all before im able to seal all pa armor parts) . also other cripplings from normal shots when in pa, so limb dmg is a thing in pa, at least in survival, maybe not in lower diffculty.
