Enclave Hellfire Armor

The  is a heat-resistant type of Power Armor worn by the specialized Enclave Hellfire Troopers as well as a few regular Enclave Soldiers. The technology behind Hellfire Armor is supposedly more advanced than that of the Tesla Power Armor used by the Enclave Soldiers. During the quests Death From Above, Shock Value, and Who Dares Wins, you may encounter several Enclave soldiers clad in this armor, such as Enclave Hellfire Troopers. This armor can also be found on Enclave soldiers BEFORE the quest Take It Back!

Characteristics
This armor is equal to the Wasteland T-51b Power Armor in terms of DR, item HP, and weight. It does, however, offer inferior rad resistance; 15 as opposed to 25 for the body, and 5 as opposed to 8 for the helmet, as well as a -1 Charisma stat for the Hellfire Helmet as opposed to the T-51b Helmet which has a +1 Charisma stat. This is made up for with +30 Fire resistance, and a +1 Strength stat. It makes a good Power Armor for those who prefer to use Small Guns, as it is one of a few types that have no Agility penalty.

In contrast to the T-51b which is limited to merchant repair, the Enclave Hellfire Armor can be repaired with other sets of Hellfire Armor. This advantage alone may make it the better choice among the game's several Power Armors. That, however, should not be taken for granted as Hellfire troopers are still an uncommon enemy.
