Broken Power Armor

[GenericoScout]

A junk item found on farmed BoS Paladins. Broken APA can be found from dead Enclave troopers.

I feel like this should also be the case when killing other players because I remembered a BOS paladin from Fallout 1 saying that if you're killed in  power armor it should be so shredded up to be worthless. And the process to manufacture the armor has been lost to all but the Enclave.

This item can not be fixed, nor can it be equipped.

Maybe the item can be turned into a suit of (NCR) Heavy Trooper Armor by buying an Air purifier from Renesco        (2K caps) and crafting it at an advanced work bench (250 EXP).

The item if it can be crafted would just be VERY heavy Metal Armor MK2(Maybe Combat Armor MK2), and a cosmetic trophy item.

Comments?

hmm hard to implement, will it looks like metal armor or PA?
And stats? if its not as good as CA2 its useless, and PA gives only better threshold and laser dr.
Looting those for dismantling would be nice, tons of MP, HQA, GMP and alloys and electronic parts, like 5 of each when u have dismantler perk.

Just tossing an idea out there.

It'll look like PA or APA for cosmetic purposes.

 its a way of proving that you're tough enough to take on Paladins or Enclave :3.

You're right these should be dismatleable for HQ parts, Although the Dismatler perk itself only gets you a max of two resources. That perk itself needs to be changed I think to allow for more than 2 resources per science.

Not true, try to dismantel a gatling laser...
I was thinking the same for PAs

Huh, Then there's no problem that I can see then. Although it would make mining less attractive in Public places. But then again that's why there's still Private Mining.
