power cores dont last long ???

[RAXXY]

my power armour runs out fast....why is this? is there plenty of power cores to go round only found 2 so far .cheers

once you make a good amount of money buy all the cores from vendors, you can find cores while exploring and get them as quest rewards. buying them is the best way though, i have 46.

And wait for a mod that can make each core last longer.
Right now before the moddinhg community can touch this mess. A patch marathon needs to be ran by bethesda's fat techies.

46 wow nice . thanks for info

last longer ahhhh ok ty

About an hour each - if you don't sprint around.

There are mods that remove the power requirement from power armour - Not one that slowly recharges spent cells though (Which would be great)

still new to this thanks for help all

Also keep in mind that your suit doesn't become useless once it runs out of power - You just lose certain abilities. You could walk back to civilization slowly in an empty one.

Power armors are really overpowered and arent supposed to be used all the time. Making the fusion cores rare to find kinda balance it out. I have 30 cores and have only used the armor once

Then the whole balance of the game is wasted... Power Armor is suppose to be the last effort armor, for toughest encounters etc... It could last let say 3hrs up to 6 with all 3* of nuclear phys. perk but it should be still a luxury. Otherwise game is just boring, with no challenge at all...

you pick them up so easy they are all over the place.. just make sure to visit all the sites you can our jsut buy as many as you can.

I never really use power armor but when I have I dont even use a core on a mission usually come back with at least 20% left.

That's... thirty hours of Power Armour. You can literally finish every mission in the entire game with that.

fixed my basic armour but power core was dead in few mins thanks for help

[RAXXY]

great info thanks all :)

I only have 9 cores, found mostly. Haven't really used the power armor much, keeping it for when stuff gets really hard. I am hoping someone makes a mod to have the armor pipboy UI as the default though.

I don't know why people say fusion cores don't last long, each core I've gotten seems to last 30-45 minutes, but it drains like nobody's business if you're sprinting everywhere. Just run like normal and you'll get plenty of use out of them, I just had one core last me 37 minutes of mostly nonstop power armor use
