Remnants Power Armor

The Remnants power armor is a set of power armor in Fallout: New Vegas.

Characteristics
The armor was created by the Enclave's skilled team of engineers and scientists after the Great War, as a result of a research program initiated in 2198, part of a larger project to develop various technologies. In 2215 the first actually superior suit is manufactured, entering service in 2220. Various accidents/explosions/deaths involved in its creation are classified by order of the Enclave's President Dick Richardson for the sake of the morale of the Enclave's personnel.

It is composed of lightweight metal alloys, reinforced with ceramic castings at key stress points. The motion-assist servo-motors used in the armor appear to be high quality models as well, giving the wearer a +1 strength bonus. The suit has an auto-gyro system to keep it upright and the knees can be locked in position, to prevent the wearer from falling over, if, for some reason, he loses consciousness on duty (i.e. takes a nap). Additionally, like the T-51b Power Armor, it includes a recycling system that can convert human waste into drinkable water, enhancing survival.

It was issued primarily to Enclave troops operating on the United States mainland, with the Enclave insignia prominently displayed on the breastplate, while rank indicators were usually painted on the shoulders of the armor.

As for looks in New Vegas, it is identical to the armour on the boxart of Fallout 2, except it has a grimier look and the goggles seem to be cracked.

Locations

 * Helmet can be found in the Silver Peak Mine upper level, north west corner of the main room, behind a gate, next to a skeleton.
 * The armor and helmet will be rewarded along with Power Armor Training by either killing Orion Moreno and taking it, convincing him to stay and gaining it from Daisy, or by taking Cannibal Johnson's when he storms out. Please refer to For Auld Lang Syne for further details. If you convince Arcade Gannon not to fight when you leave the bunker, he will give you the Gannon Family Tesla Armor. You can also obtain the Tesla Armor by failing to convince him not to fight, and subsequently killing him when he approaches you.
 * The armor can also be found in the Deathclaw Promontory (go with Extreme Caution!). There are about 20-25 deathclaws in that small area. The Deathclaw Promontory is east of Techatticup Mine, slightly to the south, you should be able to see the area across the river from the mine thanks to it's height. Alternatively, you can reach there from Cottonwood Cove, across the river. Once you're on the other side of the riverbed head north until you see an opening in a steep hill. It is not a labeled in-game location.
 * The most effective way to get this armour and the T51-b power armour, is to have a reasonable amount of luck (10 is ideal), wear the 1st Recon Beret, have the perk finesse(better criticals(opional)) a SILENCED sniper rifle, stealth boy and psycho. With these items/perks you can kill a deathclaw Mother with one clean shot to the head. Take your time, stay hidden and enjoy yourself.
 * If you can lure the deathclaws to the water, you may be able to take shots until they get close, then run into the water (they will not follow you and should start to retreat). If you repeat this process, you should be able to take out many deathclaws with little risk.
 * Sneak users can access the armor having Lily Bowen as a companion, Silent Running perk, 3 stealth boys, 1 Med-X, a nice sneak skill (+70) and full healthy. Make Lily as well as any other companion to wait in any known location near the Deathclaw Promontory before you start to cross the river (I left my companions at Ranger Station Echo). Cross the river and crouch in the beach activating sneaking mode. Move up the ramp till its mid-section and activate the stealth boy. Turn right after you reach the ramp's top and move foward, bypassing the deathclaws until you notice many deathclaws including the Den mothers and the Alpha Male into a kind of depression. Make your way through them to loot the bodies. Continue to walk on in the same direction till you fall to a lower land. Now turn right and proceed towards the cliff. Once you see the cliff, use the med-X and start to fall from stone to stone, to prevent suicide. Now cross the river back.

Behind the scenes

 * This armor is shown on the box art of Fallout 2 and appears also in this game.

Bugs

 * There is a bug that the bodies with the armor will not be at its location in the Deathclaw Promontory.
 * Confirmed in the PS3 and PC versions, obtaining the Remnants Power Helmet will make the bodies reappear with the Remnants Power Armor. You can also fast travel away from the Promontory and come back. The bodies should appear. Saving the game and loading it back will make them reappear CAUTION: The Deathclaws will reappear.
 * When in a crouching position, the head and the upper-body part of the armor will collide thus going into each other.
 * After killing one Deathclaw while using a Stealth Boy the others may bunch up in one place, getting too close will free them.
