Power armor too soon

[Frankie-Z-]

How did this make it pass QC?
Well I guess one of the first overhaul mods will be trying to get rid of Power Armor 20 minutes into the game.. And fighting death claws before you even reach lvl 5..
They got a little ridiculous with throwing stuff into the game early

They give you a power armor specifically TO fight the deathclaw. The powerarmor is a rusty piece of trash that you slowly upgrade, building it up more and more with science and Armory skills to turn it into a behemoth wrecking machine. It also costs fuel, so you can't just use it all the time. It's an investment that you can choose to not utilize if you don't want to.

Good luck keeping it powerd all the time.

[The_Pastmaster]

Good luck fighting the deathclaw without it. XD Also: The deathclaw shreds it.

The power armor you get at the start is nothing more than a rusty piece of garbage that like BlueFox said your going to have to upgrade not to mention powering it is a challenge

[Sir Mr. A]

Not like you can just walk around the game in it from the start... Unless you want to worship Todd Howard for the 3,000 hours of gameplay.

[El Capitan]

Yeah its not like you can just walk all around with it...I have it stored away and finding power supplys and more armor for it right now.

This, it isn't a god mode item or 'instant win button' like all the salty sailors think it is. It's a vehicle. You treat it like one, the cells are rare in the beginning and its a rusty piece of junk. It's pretty much a asset that has limited use until later when you got access to more cells by that point you are likely fighting crazy OP super mutants or something.

All I use it for in the beginning is when I know I can't deal with raiders in a specific area, suit up and it becomes much easier to just go in guns blazing.

I thought it was early too until I realized the armor falls apart or runs out of energy really fast and needs regular upkeep and maintenance to properly function, thus making it okay in my books.

Theres a few cores pretty close to sanctuary.....Explore around :D :D :D :D

I haven't used it since the begining of the game and have done fine without it playing on survival mode. The companions not being able to be killed is what makes this game easier than it should be.

I always find it's easier to explore without it so far.

Companions and doorways, just hair ripping potential. A nice challenge without dogmeat killing everything while I hide away looting then for him to get in the way and [Insert more rage].

not like FNV didn't have immortal companions.

Just leave it there for awhile in Concorde. I did . I will come back for it later. Why use it if you don't need it right now. Its much easier to explore without it.

parked the power armour in my garage and never touched it since.
