Stealth outfits?

[Lucy_Kushinada_]

I noticed so far this game really does like tis armor and heavy guns. Which is all good.
but my current playthrough I'm doing a stealth/sneak character and unlike the other games I've noticed that there doesn't seem to be many outfits/armor-effects that aid in this sort of character.
I've chcked the wiki and it doesn't seem that there are outfits and such that are directly used for stealth unlike the other games.
Maybe no ones listed it?
or is there actually none?

No pure stealth suits. But there are magazines that improve your sneaking and there are random effects on gear that can have benefits.

There probably is but no one has noted them down. I think I remember getting an item that helps with stealth that was rare. I dont know since I scrapped it before I started collecting all the rare items.

With the armorer perk you can add Stealth upgrades to armor pieces like combat armor and leather armor, even metal armor.

You can upgrade armor to be "Muffled" and "Shadow" so, if you wear "Muffled Shadow leather armor" you will be quieter and harder to detect

you can make modded armour
SHADOWED and MUFFLED, jsut liek in Skyrim

I kind of miss the Chinese Stealth Suit from NV... good conversationlist. :P

I got a legendary leg brace at one point that puts the stealth boy effect on me whenever I'm in sneak mode and not moving.

Also any gear that raises your agility helps with stealth.

A lot of armor pieces (leather, metal, and I think combat) can get various stealthy mods applied. There's Shadowed which makes you stealth better in darkness and Muffled (I think legs only) which reduces the noise you make while moving in stealth.

Armor weight effects your stealth too so lighter armors are better which makes the light weight mods for armor good too.

There's also legendary armor with the Chameleon prefix which makes you harder to detect when not moving.

Power armor also has the stealth boy mod for the chest piece.

Not sure if there's other things I'm forgetting or haven't found but there is definitely stealthy armor options, you just have to make them.

I had that one, it makes you invisible in game, but only actually added like 5% more effective sneaking.
but it bugs out the game to much for my liking (ie: the pipboy is almost unusuable in the invisable state) so I got rid of it.

I didn't know about the muffled or shadowed armor pieces though, thats good to know!

Actually the Chinese Stealth Suits *ARE* in New vegas, they are hidden inside the Hoover Dam

In Fallout lore, the Enclave were making bioweapons in hidden facility in the Hoover Dam

the Chinese had invented the cloaking stealth technology for their "Hei Gui" suits and later their submarines (subs are mentioned in FO4 lore)

the Chinse commandos inside the damn were caught out, and wiped out in a fight, but the damage released the bioweapon, which came ot be known as THE NEW PLAGUE, mostly spread as a sexually transmitted disease, hence the posters etc in game, Point Lookout's quaramtine camps etc

iirc, they used that virus as the basis for FEV?

anyway, the US got the Hei Gui suits off the chinese commandos, and though the Americans didn't understand the physics behind it (according to a bit of FO4 lore), they reworked the technology to make Stealth Boys and presumably the MKII stealth suit

hate the voice of the MKII stealth suit, sigh, too damn prissy

I'm fairly sure that stealth in Fallout 4 is still kind of broken.

[Honesto]

I suppose one can't necro it too many times.
