T-51b Power Armor (Fallout 76)

The T-51b power armor is a set of power armor in Fallout 76.

Background
A pre-War product of West Tek in conjunction with the United States government, T-51 power armor is made of a poly-laminate composite, shielding the user from radiation and damage while providing increased strength. Apart from military use, the corporation Grafton Steel attempted to create their own variant, codenamed Project Phoenix, resulting in a helmet reaching the prototype stage before the war.

Characteristics
With the exception of T-65, it has the highest damage resistance of any suit. On paper, it also has the lowest radiation resistance value of any power armor. This has negligible implications, as a full set of power armor derives nearly all of its radiation protection from a secondary level of protection that blocks 90% of environmental radiation.

Armor parts
1 The resistance values do not include the underlying power armor chassis's resistances.

2 Each equipped piece of power armor negates a fixed percentage of weapon damage and radiation, which stacks across all six potentially equipped pieces.

3 While equipped on a power armor chassis, power armor pieces have no weight, though the chassis itself will still maintain its own standard weight.

4 When crafted without using any buffs to enhance crafted durability.
