Fallout 4 Raider Armor Mod

Raider Power Armor is an Armor in Fallout 4. This Power Armor can be customized and changed into different models using armor mods. The armor parts can be interchanged with parts from other sets. Raider Power Armor is the weakest among all Power Armor in Fallout 4. For raider gear (and better raiders in general), your best option is most likely Raider Overhaul. As for gory decorations, Homemaker adds some Super Mutant stuff that you can build. As for 'unlocked' build limits, there are literally dozens of mods to choose from there. Three minutes or so on the Nexus and you'll find 'em. Less Cartoony Raider/Raider armor overhaul - posted in Fallout 4 Mod Talk: Im thinking Id like to overhaul raider armor and outfits. Heres my reasoning. So raiders are just people who are willing to hurt and rob innocent people so they can survive. Theres really no reason for them to dress half-naked in a cold location like boston or wear scrap metal armor when they could almost certainly kill.

Heavy raider armor is an armor set in Fallout 4.

  • 4Modifications

Background

Raiders are masters of improvisation and their armor is testament to that fact. Crafted out of salvaged junk and industrial equipment, raider armor is thick, unwieldy, and provides excellent protection from environmental hazards, thanks to the jutting pipes arranged to form a protective cage, not unlike a car rollover protection structure. The armor sets offer modest combat protection, but are excellent in surviving the hazards of scavenging and exploration.

The largest version of the raider armor is also the heaviest, trading maneuverability and flexibility for protection and sheer intimidation. Salvaged plates cover the thighs, ankles, forearms, and shoulders, held in place with leather straps and thick wire. A cluster of plates is attached to the waist belt, providing minor protection for the groin, with a carry bag, a small skull, and another bone piece wrapped around the waist. The main assembly is perhaps the most impressive, creating a cage that surrounds the entire head, protecting from debris, with a large tank carried on the back and additional, smaller tanks mounted on the front rack. The usual hoses are wrapped across the body, with open pipes used to decorate the armor with the skulls of the raider's enemies.

Characteristics

The largest and heaviest variant of the armor. It's relatively rare and offers the least amount of protection per unit of weight - it is, however, very commonplace and easy to trade.

Modifications

This item has the following modification slots: Material, Misc. All numbers are relative to the base stats.

  • Material mods can't be swapped between arms and legs, even though they cost the same and provide the same bonuses.
  • Misc mods that are available to both arms and legs can be swapped.
  • You can find Muffled arms as loot, but this is a bug. If the Muffled mod is removed from the arms, it cannot be re-added. It also likely provides no benefit on the arms.

Recommendations:

  • Always skip the Welded mod for the limbs since Tempered weighs the same.
  • Torso Misc mods tend to give more benefit for the same cost in materials.
