The DR is nice, but who hits a guy they never see?Īm I missing something by not using metal armor pieces in Fallout 4? I've used the "lightweight metal armor" from one of the DLCs as an early solution, but I generally just take the leather and let Boone or Veronica rock the metal.įor a lower-ST sniper? AGI is more important, and you probably don't want the weight. If I were playing a melee-only build, or even a melee-heavy build, I'd give the metal armors a look there. YMMV.ĪGI is slightly less important to melee builds in NV as well, which makes the DT more important, as lots of enemies use shotguns (reduced damage due to shot and higher DT).
In FO3, the only benefit is the higher DR. It's the weight that is the big one - FO2 was much less lenient about what you could carry, and bringing companions as packmules (with a side of friendly-fire-on-burst-mode - thanks, Sulik) was an acceptable and almost expected thing. Yes, in 1(?)/2 the metal armor (and metal armor mk ii - the polished stuff) is basically a straight upgrade to leather (or leather mk II) if you can carry it and handle the weight. Better metal than nothing.ĭoes it have a valuable niche in any of the other games (i.e. Yes, I've periodically used it in prior games, and as filler in FO4 when I have gaps.
