T-51b Power Armor (Fallout: New Vegas)

The T-51b power armor is a type of armor

Gameplay
In order to wear the armor, one must first acquire Power Armor Training, which can be obtained by completing the quest Still in the Dark and then completing Eyesight to the Blind or Tend to Your Business, or by completing the For Auld Lang Syne quest. The Brotherhood of Steel is the only faction that regularly uses power armor and has a faction-specific version of the armor.

Variants

 * Brotherhood T-51b Power Armor - the faction-specific variant used exclusively by the Mojave chapter of the Brotherhood of Steel.

Locations

 * One can be purchased at the armory in Hidden Valley Bunker from Knight Torres, the Brotherhood quartermaster, along with helmets and T-45d power armor for repairing (after completing Eyesight to the Blind or Tend to Your Business).
 * Another set of T-51b power armor and a helmet can be found in the deathclaw promontory on a dead prospector.
 * A set can be found at the Brotherhood of Steel safehouse after downloading patch 1.02 on PS3 and Xbox 360, or 1.20 on PC.
 * Another set can be found at the Courier's Mile in the far left corner of the ruins, inside a metal box near some ammunition and first aid boxes.

Bugs

 * When using large weapons like miniguns, the armor's hip will become see-through, and the player character will appear hipless.
 * If spawning the armor portion of this set from the console, and if the player character is currently wearing it as well, the armor will not show up in their inventory. It will apply the weight associated with carrying the armor, however. This seems to be due to the fact that although you cannot view nor interact with the item it is indeed in your inventory. If one drops the set that they are currently wearing, the newly spawned armor will appear in their inventory.
