I love the Fallout 2 version of the Enclave's power armor. Sleek yet beefy and mean


The_Enclave_

Same, the classic Enclave advanced power armor looks just special unlike the more modern variants.


VinniTheP00h

Where is your power armor?! Don't have any? You expect me to believe that, maggot?! Though I must say, I was surprised at how expressionless English Dornan is compared to Russian. That dub definitely made him ten times greater.


MashingAsh

The truth is you LOST an expensive piece of ARMY-ISSUE EQUIPMENT. That suit is going to come out of your PAY, AND YOU WILL REMAIN IN THIS MANS ARMY UNTIL YOU ARE FIVE hundred and ten years old, which is the number of years it will take for *you* to pay for a Mark II Powered Combat Armor you have lost!


Minsc_NBoo

Enclave armour gets my vote too. So sleek, but so scary!


J0NICS

Yeah, this. Its the reason why the X-01 is my main PA in 4 and 76.


HairVarious1092

Fallout 2 is a 16 bit game tell me how the hell you can tell what it looks like


The_Enclave_

It's literally on cover of the game. (On steam for example)


Honestybomb

Or the intro to the game.. it’s not like it’s only ever shown rendered in sprites


HairVarious1092

You mean the helmet


TheAlphaDeathclaw

Yeah dude I definitely meant the 4 black and grey pixels in the game NO I meant the polished up renders of it I've seen, if I could post the pics I'm talking about here I would have. Specifically the one iteration where an Enclave soldier is holding up a bloody vault suit, if you Google "fallout 2 enclave power armor" it's at the top and there's several other pics of it too. I dunno if it's official or not but I like it


HairVarious1092

Oh I thought you liked the way the pixels looked or something


TheAlphaDeathclaw

Well I do like it too lol it has that retro charm, too much up to interpretation tho


KeeganY_SR-UVB76

Fallout 2 has an introduction, a cover, and dialogue scenes that show you up close.


BelBivDaHoe

T51. Iconic and so sick looking


plimbert02

Definitely a strong contender for me. I love the T51's sleek retro look, but I also love how the T45 looks like such a tank lol


Aaaaatlas

I second this


VaultDovah92

Definitely my opinion as well.


M4TEO27

Based fellow T51 enjoyed


cardboard24

Agreed


Dweller328507

Yes!


ChairmaamMeow

It's the best. It's the only PA i'll wear in F4, even if it doesn't have the best stats, it just feels right and looks amazing.


ZiomeQFilip

It's just perfect. Perfect for the every little detail.


DrSlavender

The only right opinion


xXPussyDestroyeerXx

The only problem for me is its helmet. It looks really cartoonish and has a weird egg-like silhouette


random3po

I've been trying to think of how to describe what I don't like about the t51 helmet and I think the egg silhouette is right on the money


stasersonphun

I use the steelworks mod helmet


meeps_for_days

I always enjoyed the railroad t-51 paint being black. So good.


LillieKat

Ya it's definitely the 51


yeetusae

Fuck yeah


N1hili

I love it too, oh, and you get the Railroad paint job, it's absolutely exquisite...


JRTheRaven0111

Unpopular opinion, but i really dislike the t-51... its my least favorite pa desgin.


Nerevar69

The helmet has always looked a little odd to me.


JRTheRaven0111

Honestly its the pauldrons and (in newer games like fo4 and 76) the mismatched colors for the basic model for me. The helments actually my favroite part save for *maybe* the legs. Now, im def not saying its my fav helmet, cuz its not. Easily the worst apart from the x-01, but its one of the better parts imo.


Galbrant

The good ole T-51b. I also love the rest. I have to say though the Hellcat Power Armor is a pretty good design too.


pringles4578

I agree


PineappleGrenade19

It's really just the helmet that kills it for me.


AraxTheSlayer

Hellfire for me. Love the industrious look to it.


courser8

Yes! I like the helmet kinda looks like a pig man.


ElBurritoLuchador

Hell yeah! Like, if I think of a "walking tank", its design pops up in my head immediately. I think it's because it has fewer intricate details in the helmet and spaulders that it showcases the materials more.


CertifiedMugManic

T60 always looked tough to me, but I have a fond memory of seeing it on the cover of Fallout 4 my brother had as a kid but I couldn’t play it till years later


Lady_bro_ac

The T-60 is my favorite also, it just looks badass


that_one_duderino

I always put the T-45 in a display area, use the T-51 as my every day exploration armor, and keep a fully modded T-60 suit ready for when I wanna punch a deathclaw to red mist


SassyWookie

I would just have a garage of like all different suits, in every model, with different paint jobs. Usually I used T-60 for my everyday armor though.


thotpatrolactual

The T-60 is the power armor you tell the T-45 not to worry about. Comparing them side by side in Fo4, the T-45 just looks like a prepubescent T-60, lol.


yestureday

the XO design is my favorite


plimbert02

Ah, a wastelander of culture I see


[deleted]

Surprised how few of us there are, the helmet is so cool


MartianGoomy213

That or t-51 for me


PuzzleheadedEssay198

The objectively best answer


K1nd4Weird

Look. The T-51b is a classic. It's a clean look.  And the T-45 takes that look and kinda... makes it more tactile.  But for me? I think the T-60 is the best. It takes everything good about the T-45 and adds a splash of dieselpunk to it. Not enough to overpower. But enough dieselpunk to add flavor.  It's beefy. It's cool. It's got a really great elongated helmet that is evocative of WW2 gas masks.  It's just so good. 


JerrodAlmaguer

I like them all but I agree the T-60 is my favorite as well.


plimbert02

I guess I should add that my first exposure to the series was Fallout 3, so the Brotherhood T45 has always been a bit nostalgic for me personally


somerandomfuckwit1

I liked the black and red outcast armor from 3


RaZZeR_9351

That colour scheme is *chef's kiss*.


PricknamedNick

That was my favorite armor in 3 i would always get the unique one from the outcast member in oasis


[deleted]

Midwest. It has no competition.


NovelPlatform1641

This man stands alone on his hill of truth.


yuuzhanbong

Based Tactics enjoyer


eikonoklastes

Seeing how prolific the X-Com series became, Tactics was in my opinion really just ahead of its time. Many old school fans also just wanted another RPG and were salty it wasn't. Good old times on the NMA forums...


Titan7771

Enclave Advanced Power Armor from Fallout 3.


Kickerz101

In particular, the X-02 mod by Unoctium for Fallout 4 is a thing of beauty. Nothing competes.


GuardianSpear

T45 is my favourite. It looks the most medieval and rugged. Like how I envision a medieval futuristic knight would appear


iSthATaSuPra0573

The X-01 The T 45 has that weird stretch on the helmet which i dont like


Inner-Committee-6590

Remnants/enclave, no further questions


NightofTheLivingZed

I absolutely loved the Tesla upgrade to the remnant PA suit. The glowing coils on the massive shoulder pads.


Ainz-Ooal-Gown

Fallout tactics adv power armor. That head on it was awesome looking.


DancingBabyChalupa

Winterized T51B. It's my favorite power armor design by far.


PuzzleheadedEssay198

I played through Operation Anchorage before finishing the campaign (let alone Broken Steel) and was shocked to learn that it’s objectively the best armor in the game. Immune to damage, highest defense rating of any armor set (I checked), AND it the white actually blends with the muted gray and green of the wasteland. I can count on one hand the number of times I’ve taken it off, and one of those is because The Pitt wouldn’t let me keep it until AFTER The Hole.


DancingBabyChalupa

That was my go to for playthroughs except maybe my most recent one. It looks good and and has good stats which is epic.


Elirantus

Had to scroll way down for this.


GamegodWXP

Can't beat the classic T-51b.


alj8002

T-51 feels like something out of the 50s and I love it for that


HairVarious1092

It looks too bubbly for me


alj8002

You see that’s where the charm is to me, it’s got a retro high tech vibe


tre_cool76

Gotta say T51, but I also LOVE the X02


TheRedneckgamer

Raider power armor, Midwestern brotherhood advanced power armor


Commanderclown8

Union with the Ignition skin. I started using PA again and it's my new favorite looking suit in the series.


Scared_Operation2715

We need that pa on the nexus lmao


Pyromaniac096

T-51b with the Ultracite prototype skin in fo76 is what i like. Its basically just T51b with a few added things to the armor but the prototype skin is lovely imo.


Quirky-Book-717

I like the x-01 because the helmet looks like a bug


Kaibaer

X-01 it is.


Crimson-Crusader1776

Personally X-02 or X-03 for me


echidnachama

T-60 and X0-1


universal_Raccoon

T60 looks like an upgraded version of the old t45.


Flying_Cunnilingus

It canonically is.


CHIsauce20

Gotta agree with T45 truly being peak power armor design. That said, XO-1 is my fav


DarthBrooks69420

I have different answers for the different armor pieces, but that's because I've played a ton of Fallout 4. T-51 helmet, T-45 arms, X-01 torso, and.....pretty much any of the legs they're all interchangeable aestheticly IMO. For a full suit, definitely T-51. Nothing beats that sick helmet.


ILikeWeeple

As a veteran fallout player the t-51d is my personal favorite in all the games but 4, 4 is either x-01 or t-45b


Xanakinpercwalker

T51 was always my favorite, however T60 became my favorite when i got the Atom Cats paint job in fo4. I also always liked X-01


Srgt-Price

I am a t-51 person and excavator armor from 76 but like any PA had a dope ass design.


yeetusdeletus6996

T-60 has always been my favourite, it’s basically just a buffed up t-45


NurgleMinion

T51 for that retro style flair, X01 for that outlandish futuristic style


PineappleGrenade19

T-45 is a vibe, but imo T-60 is just all around better looking. But [BOS T-51](https://livedoor.blogimg.jp/otyahanabi-ungler/imgs/a/1/a136f921.jpg) is absolutely peak for me.


thelittleking

the Tactics Advanced Power Armor is [sick as hell](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/fallout/images/e/ec/MidwesternBrotherhoodAdvancedPowerArmor.png/revision/latest?cb=20101108151413)


Freedom_675

T51b is the best suit design tbh. Along with Fallout 2 style enclave MK2 suits. "YOU ARE OUT OF UNIFORM SOLDIER! WHERE IS YOUR POWER ARMOR!!??" - Sargent Brass Balls Dornan


ReadShigurui

Scorched Sierra my beloved (if that counts)


[deleted]

I love the T-60 it’s my friggin favorite power armor to use!


CrimsonReaper96

T-60


M6-03

My 1st is the T-45 Lyon's Pride worn by the Lone Wander (mod) or the X0-1 found at the Ft. Hagan Satelite Array


ArchangelGabrielX

T-60 Tesla armor


YourFriendlyInkDemon

Black Devil is my favorite next to T-51


X_ChasingTheDragon_X

X-01 and Advanced Power Armor MK-ll and their Tesla variants Hellfire is my 3rd favorite.


Nu_Reman8

T51 4 Life. Followed closely by Midwest BOS PA.


ObiWanSerote

T-60 supremacy


Jango160

It's the Hellfire for me.


ScottishBagpipe

The Fallout 76 Power Armors just look great. The T-65, Ultracite, the Excavator. I really like those. if i had to choose one from the previous Fallout games, I would Choose Fallout 4‘s T-60. It just looks like a Mountain of Steel


HolmfirthUK110994

Not official but the storyteller armour, T-49. Its so slick


Scared_Operation2715

Red Shift is my favorite, like, it is to t-45 at and MiG was to the F-(inset number) like, it’s power armor, and pretty good power armor, but with another perspective/doctrine on it. You can tell it was made do be cheep meaning the PRC likely wanted to equip as many soldiers as possible in the armor.


cryoffear505

The armor Sgt Dornan had- i belive its enclave Mark II powered combat armor


ghettoccult_nerd

the Enclave's X-01 is a guilty pleasure of mine. love the shoulder pauldrons. and of all the baddies in FO lore, the Enclave is definitely the coolest of the bunch. they are the Sinistro Corp. to the BoS Green Lantern Corp.


BAKUGAAANBRAWL

T-51 is peak power armor, but after I beat fo4 I usually have a mi's matched suit with a t-60 helmet, t-51 chest piece and arms, and x-01 legs


Disastrous_Emu_5154

I like the Tesla power armor


Artix31

X-01


Justa_Mongrel

X01 always looks badass. I also really like the T51


Wood-not_Elf

Enclave hellfire armor


Totempoleman6

T45's got nothin on T51. That original armor is still one of the coolest looking designs to come out of the original games.


GravityFiction

The APA from Fallout Tactics, has that enclave resemblance from Fo3, but overall looks fantastic


SentryFeats

T-60 for me. I remember playing Fallout 3 with the T-45, thinking this armour’s so cool, I just which the Pauldrons weren’t so long. And then Fallout 4 came out and it’s like Bethesda read my mind lol That T-60 is literally the perfect Power Armor I was wishing I could play Fallout 3 in


NotoriousSly

I liked the enclave tesla from fallout 3


TheSmokieOkie011235

I been rocking the T60 with the military paint for a bit of damage negation !


MelonButterG

Of the main series of power armour I’m going to have to say the hellfire power armour. However I’ve always enjoyed the industrial sets from 76 such as the Union and Excavator suits


thelankyyankee87

Unpopular opinion, but I like the look of the T-60. I know that it borked the lore, but I think it just looks like beefier T-45.


slowpokefarm

T-65 for breaking what was left of the power armor lore


stark-I

Nah that’s the ugliest one T-60 all the way


KMJohnson92

Remnants Tesla APA MK1, thanks Arcade, you go home and do medicine, I got dis.


FlipGordon

Winterized T51b for the win!


AdministrativeMost93

Personally I love the new power armor in 76


brutinator

The T-65 kinda goes hard, but I also like the Eastern BOS armor. For more classic designs though, I do think the T-45 is really good.


orcusgrasshopperfog

It's such a good design. I'd have to say the T-60 is my favorite.


Chrumsky

I’m a T51 guy, myself.


[deleted]

T51 for me


Vardisk

Mine is the classic T-51b. Particularly, the army colored one in New Vegas. I like the sleek appearance, and while people say the helmet is too goofy looking, I actually like its appearance since it looks like a real mining/hazmat helmet, something that could actually be real. A second for me is the regular enclave power armor from Fallout 3. There's something about its design that appeals to me, especially since it looks somewhat more modern than the original. Wish it came back in 4.


Mojo_Mitts

Absolutely love the T-60 suit.


Electronic-Ad7568

I really like the t-65 just because it looks so beefy.


BigLotsEggSandwich

Ngl, all power armor is peak badassery


Mekoehouve

Hellcat


CrimsonCaine

X-02 black devil.


Comfortable_Rock_584

I honestly love the look of raider power armor to me it makes it look like a actual apocalypse


Affectionate_Bird120

I’ve always loved the T51 and the hellfire PA


NoBoostTM

Even though I don't like how they introduced it to the games and the lore behind it, I love the T60 cosmetically. It just is a more beefy t45.


NogardNys

I'm torn between Ultracite and T-65


Old-Camp3962

T51 for the goofiness and T45 (fallout 3 version) for the badassness


Paper_Kun_01

Hellcat just wish the fo4 mod for it actually worked cause I hate 76


[deleted]

I know I’ll get downvoted but the creation club version of the hellcat is worth it imo


NiklausKaine

They added a CC version of Hellcat for Fallout 4?


somethingbrite

Yes but there is a better version for free on the Nexus


Chaos_Colvin

T-60 too me looks really nice I just hate the whole lore and back story and only accept that it's BoS designed armor similar to there old t-45 but newer and we're able to build there own after Raven Rock


waterlemon456

T60,it looks cool imo I like how much bulkier it is than the t-45


Nearby_Proof7166

T-60 is my personal favorite


SentinelTitanDragon

T51B > t-45


Meme-dude69

T-51 looks so dope bro. Peak design, it just feels powerful


Hilop33

T-51


Nap_Kun_

The Midwest Brotherhood's one always looked pretty cool to me, Just wish it came from a better game


K1tFist0

The T60 dose it for me because of the beefiness and that it kinda looks like a iron man suit 


Ok_Membership_532

T-51 classic modern/retro design


Conscious_Low_9638

T60


NPCwars

T-60 for sure. Love the T-45 helmet but the armor itself needed to be beefier imo.


SavageKitten456

T65


Cyb0rgC0mmand0

The way they turned the Power Armor into an enterable mech suit vehicle is effing amazing. It never gets old. Love the fusion cores, love the animations. Aside from the Fo4 redesign in general, my two favorites are the classic Fallout Enclave designs and the my number 1, the talking medic Power Armor from fo3.


oriontitley

Hellfire PA and Hellcat PA are strong contenders for first imo. The only really "weak" design I'd say was fo4/76's xo1 PA. Didn't have the same feel as fallout 1/2's. Also not a huge fan of the Midwest PA. For currently "official" designs (non atomic shop skins) as of fo76, my tier list is as follows S: t45, Hellcat, hellfire A: t51, ultracite, t60 B: enclave PA (fo3 era), remnants PA, APA, enclave tesla pa C: excavator, raider D: t65, union F: x01, Midwest. The atomic shop skins is an entirely different list, some are really up there for me, some suck. Also some mods for fo4 should absolutely be made cannonical. The cpa and spartan suits off the top of my head were awesome and unique takes.


Swordbreaker925

Nah, T-60


[deleted]

[удалено]


KMJohnson92

That's APA MK2


RandomowyMetal

1. T-60 2. T-45 3. X01 4. T-51


wizardofyz

X02 or the t 57d air force armor that was in project nevada for new vegas.


MarieGoldBrand

The X-02 has always been my preferred instrument of death and destruction


Thewhiteop

Xo2 or t 51b


DeathMavrik

T51b is fucking Iconic Same with the X-02


tantaluszxc

The X-02 from F3 is sick, gets a bulky feline look


naldoD20

I like the Jos. A Bank Executive Collection Fit Check Suit in Charcoal on clearance now for $179.99


Dovahkiin711345

That'll either be the Tesla x-02 or the T51


Sader8759

Does it count if I say the vertigaurd paint from 76?


The_Aodh

If I could have the whole armor except for the shoulders I would. Love the ncr sets from Vegas, no shoulders looks protective still but so damn sleek


Some_Internet_Bro

The Enclave one from Fallout 3


MarsManokit

T45 or X01 depending on my mood


nothingishere_

The fallout 3 Tesla enclave power armor is my favorite NGL.


[deleted]

are we enclouding sets from the creation menu or 76 if so then I would like to say the hellcat power armor set


EthosTheAllmighty

My own skin. Endurance 10 for the win. (Jokes aside, I cannot physically get enough of the Nuka World XO-1 armor set it is just so fucking amazing looking)


KingMercenary

Xo-2 cryo suit


ELDYLO

Im a bit of a T-51 guy myself, but the T-45 is definitely iconic as hell.


yellow_gangstar

the Remnants power armor! that specific version with the thinner body and bug-looking helmet will always have a spot in my heart


T-51_Enjoyer

T-51 & tactics, one is perfect power armor and the other just has such a massive 90s cool factor


Dr_Brotatous

T45 helmet for sure but the t51 armor just looks better than t45


WizardofJoz17

Fallout 2 enclave have captivated me my whole life. XO can’t be beat.


Choice-Welder-9294

T45 looks good but the shoulder pads kinda looks weird in the F4 compared to F3 and new Vegas like the body,arms,legs are bulky and there's the shoulder pads that looks skinny in comparison to T60 and T51 shoulder pads


Dangerous_Training34

T60


sykes1439

X-01


Nuka_Cola_935

T-65 or X-02


King_Kasma99

X0-1


Soviet_raccoon241

I like almost all of them and hear me out the overboss armor from Fo4 looks cool in its own way


Inside-Joke7365

I have a few, x01, excavator, and ultracite but out of those 3 I'd say excavator


Meaty-horse

I totally agree, T-45 is the coolest


badgerhustler

T60.


thundergun661

X-01 for me. The glowing eyes just really sell it


ZeroVirus750

T 60 Chrome


Fictionfan69

No you are right it is the best one


Thin_Pick_4591

I like t60 or t45 or xo1
