What is your power armor collection like?

[Zales]

I try to pick up each suit of power armor that I find and have what I think is a nice collection of 21 frames, with maybe 10 full suits (not including the pieces that I have stored away).

What are your guys' power armor collections like? I would really like to know.

Mine is a ball of X-01 suits in Home Plate (20 jammed as tightly in the corner as possible)
A hangar full of empty frames in Sanctuary (50 jammed as tightly a possible)
More empty frames randomly sitting around (~20 where you teleport into the institute, some at random settlements)
And a box with 260 suits worth of T-60 parts and ~100 other suits (mostly raider) worth of parts.

On average I have 3 to 5 complete suits in every settlement except for a couple where I have 10 or more. I try to position them as guards or ready to use any moment. Sometimes I set up power armor shops and stage it with racks, tool boxes and power armor being repaired.

I built an airship kinda of a mini of the Prydwen. It is BoS faction airship Prydbird. Instead of vertibirds there is 6 jet pack power armor ready for fast deployment. It is a long range recon ship capable of executing rapid assaults by approaching in silence and dropping knights on unaware enemy. (it is static just looks cool)

Im doing more of an anthology of Power Armors. Basicly if i come across one i take it back as is and place it on display. In fact my display looks exactly like Gordons, i.e. same displays in the exact same spot. But im not upgrading them. I managed to get ahold of a raider suit by staling the power core and forcing the raider to eject and then killed the raider and looted the plates.

I usually build a warehouse somewhere for the extra frames and extra parts. I usually wind up with about 20-30ish suits in there. I try to shoot the powercore out of targets to snag their frames... and last couple playthroughs I'v done the same with the brotherhood as they wound up being hostile.

Now if I build a display area in my base of operations, I'll usually have a vault-tec and faction set of power armor set up (like my minuteman one, one side had the armor + Vault suit + bobbleheads and the other had minuteman armor + general + preston + standard outfits on display with flags behind them)

There are about 32-33 in this pic. Ive got 40 now. Im having trouble finding more T45 and T51 parts. The Atom Cats only sell T60 currently.

I think the BoS sells some, but it may be mostly T60. Though I think there are mods that let some vendors sell the older stuff too. It's one problem with leveled lists if you want the older stuff

Cant you downgrade via the power armor station?

Nice collection. For older armor there are a few gunner camps that have it. The gunner camps will respawn more so it is endless supply.

I usually setup the Mechanist Lair as an 'I love me' exhibit with power armor out the wazoo.

not from t60 to t45 or the like.

Each armor has a model type, followed by a letter for the upgrade

T-45B can be upgraded to T-45F or down to T-45A but it can't be upgraded to T-60A as that is a separate model
