Power Armor is a type of apparel in Fallout 3.
Gameplay
Power Armor can only be worn if the player character has gained the Power Armor Training perk, either by talking to Paladin Gunny in the Citadel, by starting the Take it Back! quest, or by completing the Anchorage Reclamation Simulation. Elder Lyons mentions research progress on modified recon armor when speaking with Scribe Bowditch.[1]
Variants
Notes
- T-45 variants of Power Armor are not mentioned by name in Fallout 3, named "Power Armor" instead.
- Though not included as a complete object, the Fallout 3 "Textures.bsa" file contains a complete mesh for a pink power armor, and appears as a pink-painted armor with a white outline of a heart painted on the breastplate.
- When the player character wears the helmet, they are not affected by the voice changer when doing a power attack with their fists or a melee weapon.
- When anyone wearing Power Armor, including the player character, has a rifle holstered it will be pointing the opposite way compared to any other apparel.
- The Brotherhood of Steel insignia is present on the left pauldron of all plain Power Armor.

Scribe Bowditch: "Ah... you're a bit early today, sir. Regardless, I'm happy to report that the development of the Mark II Recon Armor unit is proceeding as planned."
Elder Lyons: "I'm pleased to hear that. Do you anticipate any setbacks? Last month's progress was, well... let's call it "underwhelming.""
Bowditch: "There may be a slight delay in the enhancement of the ambulatory gyroscope. A few of the parts I need were lost in the recent... inventory reduction."
Elder Lyons: "You'll make do, Bowditch. You always do."
Bowditch: "Thank you, sir. I appreciate it."
