Armored Trilby hat?

 

[Battlelyon]

You have to get the weave from the jackpot railroad mission then you can upgrade certain clothes item, including the trilby hat. My defense resist is 375.

I guess I gotta go to the highway crossroads and meet Deacon. He has been waiting there for me for a few weeks, now...

 

[sooner78wakeboard]

Looks like I need to get some upgrades in armor. You all post some great info. Right now I am at level 32 trying to decide what are (perks) I should focus on. It has mainly been sneaking and semi-rifle, which has worked out awesome. Making one shot kills are so much easier.

 

[PatsFan2003]

Gee no power armor upgrades? I'm going the X01 route. Although I am impressed with 100+ fatigues. Never would have even thought of that!

 

[calsnowskier]

I like collecting Power Armor, but I dont like using it.

no reason, really. Just doesnt feel right.

Same here, I have all my frames in Sanctuary and all the power armor pieces.

 

[PatsFan2003]

Nah I'm addicted. My biggest problem with the armor are the resources needed for repair. Suddenly aluminum is my scarcest resource with me buying shipments from the local vendors. I have about 60 fusion cores which were scarce as sin early on.

Winding down to the last quest.. Although I hear the game doesn't officially end.

 

[calsnowskier]

I finally got Strong to admire me this weekend.

Got he is a whiny bitch. So glad I am done with him.

Only have Deacon and Valentine left to complete. I havent recruited Danse or the Institute Synth yet. I will probably focus on getting Danse in the next few days.

Best perk is, without a doubt, McCready. His perk is probably TOO powerful (+20% to head shots in VATS)

 

[chf]

Heh. Once I get my strength up a few points I'm dumping Strong like a bad habit. Every freaking thing I pick up he grumbles at me. It's like you're married to him.

My daughter says that there's even some glitch with Macready where you get even higher % with his perk.

I've never used him.

I would not be surprised about the McCready Perk. No matter how far I am, and no matter the weapon, as long as I can see the head, I have a 95%. Of course the damage goes WAY down if I am too far away, I am almost guaranteed a hit.

Yep I think that's the glitch. My kid was saying she could hit even with her 10 mm pistol from sniping distance. With the bonus VATS pistol she just keeps head shooting even the toughest opponents.

I thought Preston was the worst, at least Strong can carry more stuff. Got McCready now, also need the Synth, Danse, and the Combat Zone girl left for perks.

Lol on Strong.

The next update is suppose to fix the McCready perk.

With maxed out stealth and Ninja I haven't need any McCready perk.

I liked Cait, but I was able to wrap her around my "finger" very quickly. Once I am done getting all the perks, I will either travel with her or Dogmeat. I don't really need a mule since I have Stong Back max'd.

By Michael McWhertor on Jan 22, 2016 at 6:56p @MikeMcWhertor


Fallout fans who demand nothing but the best from their action figures can pre-order the one-sixth scale Fallout 4 T-45 Power Armor starting next week, according to an announcement from toymaker ThreeZero. The figure, which stands 14.5 inches tall, can be yours for just $380 — and that includes worldwide shipping.

Pre-orders for ThreeZero's Fallout 4 Power Armor will open Jan. 28 at 9 a.m. Hong Kong Time (that's Jan. 27, 8 p.m. ET). The figure comes in two versions: the standard retail version and a ThreeZero Store exclusive that includes a minigun for $398.

Here are the details of the T-45 Power Armor collectible, from ThreeZero's Facebook:

• Figure stands 14.5 inches (36.8 cm) tall
• Fully-posable figure features over 35 points of articulation
• Incredibly detailed mechanical parts
• Articulated fingers
• Exchangeable male head and helmet
• Helmet features a light-up LED function
• All outer-armor pieces are detachable and interchangeable with upcoming FO4 Power Armor figures
• Detailed endoskeleton underneath the outer-armor pieces
• Incredible paint application to highlight all the details with weathering effect based on the appearance in video game
• Includes highly detailed weapon AER-9 Laser Rifle

Here's a larger look at the figure and its minigun-packing variant.

What weapons do you guys travel with? What armor?

My 3 weapons are...

Mighty .50 Sniper Rifle (Mighty = +25% damage; .50 Receiver; max everything except w/ Compensator)
Assassins Advanced Combat Shotgun (Assassins = +50% against humans; max everything, suppressor, no sight)
Irradiated .308 Combat Rifle (Irradiated = +50 pts rad damage; short ported barrel, recoil comp stock; suppressor)

Armor
Commando Helmet (10% reduction in AP cost in VATS)
Powered Polished Metal Chest Plate (increased AP refresh)
Martyrs Polished Metal Left Arm (Slowes time at 20% health)
Chameleon Shadowed Combat Armor Right Arm (basically makes me invisible - too powerful)
Bolstering Shadowed Combat Armor Left Leg (increased DR based on health)
VATS Enhanced Shadowed Combat Armor Right Leg (10% reduction in cost in VATS)

All armor is lighter build and shadowed.

I'm a pack mule, love to use all my weapons.

-2-shot 5.56 Assult Rife (this thing is a BEAST, especially with my rifleman perk. 126 two-projectile damage. My definite go-to)
-Exploding .50 Sniper (15 point explosion area damage)
-Ghoul Slayer .308 Combat Rifle (50% more damage to ghouls, munches right through them)
-Kellogg's pistol (good for quickly refilling the critical hit bar and spamming it)
-2076 World Series Bat (perfect for ledge enemies, as it sends them flying)
-Righteous Authority (still kicking, up to 101 damage)
-Plasma Infused Shotgun
-Furious Machete (which is actually using the Kremvh's Tooth ability, on a different legendary machete. Increasing damage with every hit on same target+targets bleed and are poisoned)
-I keep my heavies on my follower which include fulled-loaded Gauss Rifle, quad missile launcher and, of course, the Fat Man.

As for Armour,

-Combat Helmet (14 resist, 14 energy resist)
-Combat Chest Piece (40 resist, 40 energy resist)
-Cunning Combat Left Arm (+1 Agility/Perception, 17 resist, 17 energy resist)
-Metal Right Arm (28 resist, 17 energy resist)
-Chameleon Synth Left Leg (Invisible when in sneak mode and not moving, 20 resist, 23 energy resist)
-Fortifying Synth Right Leg (+1 Strength/Endurance, 18 resist, 21 energy resist)
-Vault 111 jump suit (10 resist, 10 rad resist)
-And, of course, Patrolman Sunglasses (+1 perception)

I have the ballistic weave, and I'm thinking about switching over to maxed out upgraded Courser armor. Any suggestions on a good under-garment other than the Vault jump suit? I've literally kept it this entire time because I haven't come across anything better.

You'll see a new option for Weave Mods on all eligible armors. If you don't already own an eligible armor, Tinker Tom sells some prefab suits that can be upgraded with better Weave mods. You can also grab Army Fatiguesfrom Gunners in many areas...these are perfect for Weave augmentation.

Other compatible armor includes:

• Army Fatigues
• Baseball Uniform
• Dirty Army Fatigues
• Green Shirt and Combat Boots
• Military Fatigues
• Minuteman Outfit
• Tattered Rags

Headgear (that can be fully upgraded):

• Battered Fedora
• Green Rag Hat
• Newsboy Cap
• Trilby Hat

To create a new Ballistic Weave, you'll also need Ballistic Fiber as a raw material.


This can be purchased in Goodneighbor at K-L-EO's shop in batches of 25.


Once you've got the Fiber, head to an Armor crafting station Take any suit of eligible armor and construct a Level 5 Ballistic Weave mod.


You now have a 110/110 defense, and as long as you've used an underarmor (like Army Fatigues), you can stack arm, leg, and chest plating on top for further defensive bonuses.


But the fun's not over yet! A very few hats also allow for Ballistic Weave. The only one we've tested so far is the Newsboy Cap, but it's likely a few other caps also apply. The effects of a hat and an underarmor layer stack, bolstering your defenses to an incredible 220/220!
