Fallout 76 Power Armor Guide – All Types of Power Armor

Fallout 76 Power Armor Guide

In this Fallout 76 Power Armor Guide, we will show you all the types of Power Armors that are in the game, as well as highlight what pieces of Power Armor make up the whole suit, followed by the details and stats of each part.

There is nothing better to save your hide than what a Power Armor gives. With storage space to having a mechanized suit in combat, a Power Armor is second to none.

However, the only catch is that you will need to have a Fusion Core for it to work, as a fuel to power up this suit.

Most sets of Power Armor can be found by scavenging loot off dead enemies and completing random quests for rewards. There are lots of Daily Quests and events that obtain all of the parts to most of these sets. And if you are interested in more details on all of the suits of Power Armor available to you from day one, our guide will come in very handy.

Below we will list all the Power Armors that are available in the game, as well as highlight all the details of each part that makes up a Power Armor.

Raider Power Armor

This is the first Power Armor that you get. It is not the best but can get the job done, especially in the early stages of the game. While its resistance is not particularly that high, it will serve you well for the time that you have it.

T-45 Power Armor

This is a balanced Power Armor as it allows for a less nuanced approach to combat situations. Although it is not great if you enter a Rad storm for a long time in this, it does however provide good armor for combat at this level.

Excavator Power Armor

This Power Armor is a powerhouse when it comes to survivability, especially in terms of Radiation Resistance. While it is not the best of the best when it comes to Damage and Energy Resistance, if you find yourself going in an uninhabitable environment, this suit will keep you safe.

T-51b Power Armor

This is a bit different from the T-45 and might require some consideration. Where it lacks is survivability in irradiated areas, where you are better off in the T-45, but where it comes out better than the rest above, is when you enter a highly contested area and are expecting some fierce fighting, where this is a walking brick wall keeping you safe inside.

T-60 Power Armor

When it comes to Energy, Radiation, and Damage Resistance, there is no better than having a T-60 suit, as the stats of every other set before this Power Armor easily surpasses it. If you can get your hands on it, then you will have yourself a sturdy, well-rounded set of Power Armor that will serve you until you reach the level requirements for the next set.

X-01 Power Armor

This Power Armor is at the top of the mountain as far as Energy Resistance is concerned; the X-01 Power Armor is definitely in the upper echelon for reasons beyond its level requirements. While other sets handle physical damage a good deal better, the X-01 set can tank Energy attacks like a tank itself. If combating Scorchbeasts and radioactive anomalies is in your near future, it might be in your best interest to take this mobile panic room for a spin.

Ultracite Power Armor

While the Ultracite set of Power Armor may be the last available on the list, that doesn’t mean you can abandon every other set. The X-01 suit handles Energy-based damage much better than this one, but you can expect better physical Damage Resistance from this suit than any other.

Now you might be wondering what Power Armor should you bring to a Fissure Site, Ultracite, or the X-01, but it all comes down to what is giving you the hardest time. Scorchbeasts use Energy attacks almost exclusively, while Scorched that surround it will attach you with physical damage attacks. if you find that Scorchbeasts are roughing you up the most, then consider the X-01, but Ultracite will work just fine in all other situations
