The Desert Ranger Combat Armor from Honest Hearts deserves attention. It has the same DT as T-45d power armor, and is much easier to repair.

Plus, even though ot's a Unique variation of the NCR Ranger Armor, it's not counted as faction armor.

It is the Elite Riot Gear without the SPECIAL boosts or the sneak sight, or the guns buff. Worse, but just slightly. Great early game, because Honest Hearts is super fucking easy and all you need is some explosives and repair to get it, but as soon as you can get the elite, swap that shit out.

The stealth suit mkII from Old World Blues is my favorite. Not only does the armor talk to you (alerting you to combat, checking stimpacks and med-x you have, reminding you your pipboy light is on, and just commenting every so often or asking if you like it) but after doing the trials to upgrade it, it gives a whopping +25 to sneak, +1 to PER and AGI, and increases your sneak movement speed by +20% (as medium armor.) It also automatically dispenses stim packs, med-x, and IIRC antivenom as needed. It's body armor only, and DT is only 14, but for sheer flavor I love it. Just ignore the med-x addiction and my lack of stimpacks...

10:41 my favorite armor in the whole game. After I found this armor, I had no use for any other armor. 😊

[@burntgrahamcracker2866]

The T 51b is one of the items on my endgame checklist just for its look alongside a fully modded tri beam laser rifle and sprtl wood

[@PerishingPurplePulsar]

I love that I discover you last night, especially since I am going back to NV after years, and then you post a new top 10 the next day. Subbed

[@SuperZarrabal]

I recommend you to see Killer Game Shit, he has some nice advices to begin

[@Jessie_Helms]

Well dang, I need to cheat in some power armor and remnant armor- I cleared out the deathclaw, found the guns, but the bodies weren’t there.

[@breeboy1]

Took me tree trys to find the bodies, if you leave the area for 72 game hours and come back it resets the map and you may find them then. Also they kinda blend into the rocks really well

[@joshuaashton1929]

New Vegas being new Vegas lol

[@ZamaPG]

you can do the quest for auld lang syne aswell

[@LoserManic]

I wanna add, for the Reinforced Combat armor mark 2, if you travel west of the sunset sarsaparilla headquarters, and find a brewery behind the headquarters in the hills, if you follow the trail behind the brewery (passed some cazadores) keep following the trail west until you find a duffle bag near a skeleton and some mutilated body parts, there's a duffle bag with the armor. I don't know if its level specific, but I did find some there. So it is possible to get some without spending caps, but if you don't want to fight cazadores, than caps are the safe route.

[@girf4233]

T-51b power armor is by far the best armor in the game. Sure it has less DT than the enclave one but it doesnt break after a light breeze.

[@ZWarrior006]

I've played this game for so long...and I never been to that deathclaw place for the armors.

[@randylahey3988]

And me who's patrolling the Mojave with my hat and surgeon outfit

[@SavageGreywolf]

The Elite Riot Gear is badass certainly but considering you gave the Gannon family variant of the Remnants armor a special mention you probably should have done the same for the Desert Ranger Armor. It has the same DT as the Elite Riot Gear but no special effect. It is slightly heavier but it is much easier to get, given that Honest Hearts has a recommended level of 10+ but Lonesome Road has a recommended level of 25+. Plus it has the whole history of being Great War Marine armor and having the soldier markings- it just looks cool.

[@usoassassino]

I love the non-faction riot gear set, I equipped all my human companions the armours. With boon being given the desert riot gear, and Veronica the Advance set.

[@cm5913]

You just turned your companions into a commando unit.

[@gabezed2329]

If we're talking base game, reinforced leather armour takes the cake. It's easy to find, and has a good enough DT to be primary armour.

[@soundwave-superior7372]

To make the DT even better for all armour is by Getting the NEMAN implant, Lonesome road ED-E’s upgrade that improves DT, and all perks of toughness

[@Wanderingwalker-ke6mg]

So happy to see another countdown! Keep at it friend!

[@koalabear1938]

I've been waiting for this list

[@NoActuallyGo-KCUF-Yourself]

The only thing I wear is the Naughty Nightwear. High-crit stealth sniper - don't need DT if the enemy can't touch me.

[@issacN7]

Love how this man still keeps nv relevant 🤘🏻

[@bobby6849]

Van Graffs combat armor with Legion recruit helmet. 👌🏻 Rex and unmedicated Lily as companions.

[@NobodyDungeons]

Use the remnants power armor get the damage threshold implant to have 40 DT then use med-x to get a DT of 65 add in other drugs and consumables to get roughly 75 damage threshold literally stand in front of multiple death claws at the highest difficulty wondering why people think death claws are dangerous

[@samuelsebriant7438]

luckily you're talking about base game deathclaws, which are a joke, lonesome road ones pierce DT and do 500+ damage with each strike on normal

[@zachwright7374]

@@samuelsebriant7438 so that’s why I got my ass handed to me repeatedly

[@samuelsebriant7438]

@@zachwright7374 yup, can relate, late game melee enemies are insanely op in terms of damage

[@robertfidler1734]

There's also a cheap way to get Combat Armor Reinforced Mk. II, if you don't choose the Wild Wasteland trait, the enemies where the aliens typically are (northernmost part of the map, west of the northern passage) feature one person with that armor set and the YCS, a unique Gauss Rifle.

[@fernandocosta2309]

Helpful fact for all those looking forward to the Remnants Power armor: you can, actuality, obtain it relatively early in your playthrough if you're not going to side with Mister House; here are the steps: 1- Get rid of Mister House right after dealing with Benny and obtaining the Platinum Chip 2- Begin the Yes Man's questline and transfer him to the Lucky 38 3- Right after you install Yes Man at the Lucky 38, the game will already begin the third main story arc, with "Don't Tread on the Bear" and "Beware the Wrath of Caesar" warning you about siding with Yes Man for the ending (this part of the story is when Arcade's affinity quest is able to be triggered), don't worry about it, though, because none of the factions will actually shun you at this point, this is only the game telling you to be careful about the faction choices you made until that moment (NCR and Legion will only shun you and refuse the let you help them if you complete the "Wild Card: Side Bets" quest for Yes Man, and it's not necessary for the purpose of obtaining the Remnants Power armor) 4- After doing the steps above, you simply need to get Arcade as companion and get only one of his triggers, the easiest ones being: talk to Thomas Hildern at Camp McCarran terminal for the first time (this only works if Arcade is with you when you talk to Thomas the FIRST time, remember that); entering the Silver Rush (even with the Van Graffs dead) and going to the REPCONN Headquarters; it's very important that you hear Arcade's dialogues and answer nicely to him 5- If done right, the affinity quest should start right after leaving the dialogue-trigger building, and then you just need to complete the quest normally to get both the Remnants Power armor and the training to use it. That's it, by doing the steps above you can get the best armor in the whole game quite early in the progression. In two different playthroughs, I was able to get the armor before obtaining level 16. I hope this hint helps you guys.

[@brentpolk652]

I went to the deathclaw place and cleared them all out and for some reason the only thing that spawned was a triple laser rifle and a multi plas rifle, idk what to do? Do you have any ideas?

[@rodneylawrence4585]

i was such a high level player that at the end of lonesome road that at the long 15 there was only power armor in the crates

[@blueberryhaze1293]

good to see some NV content : )

[@The_GK1]

After a decade too

[@lloydmarshall2590]

If you want combat armor reinforced Mark 2 for free you can steal it in one of the hangers at the nellis afb

[@donwasil1985]

You forgot to mention that the Centurion Helmet gives a +1 to Perception. Other than that, good video maboi.

[@JonnnyFive]

Thanks man 🤙

[@willlauzon3744]

There's a death claw promontory? What?

[@jmfranklin111]

I can’t find the last piece of armor or the unfactioned t 15 armor somebody help please

[@cillianthestupendous6093]

I really feel like including the helmets was a huge handicap to this list. neither the centurion armor nor the salvaged power armor have any business on here. additionally, I would consider the scorched sierry to be a variant to the t-45d. same for the salvaged power armor.

[@malakimorse5182]

The enclave is easily my favorite faction in the fallout series I wish in the next fallout game they allow you to join some enclave remnants and help to make a chapter of the enclave they are just so underdeveloped in the new fallout games if I could join any fallout faction in the post apocalypse it would easily be the enclave just for how menacing they look

[@JohnDonovanYT]

They're one the worst factions in the fallout series. They're just bad as Caesar's Legion and The Institute. The things that the enclave did in the West coast is just disgusting.

[@JohnDonovanYT]

They're so trash that even Arcade feels ashamed of growing up inside of The Enclave.

[@austintheforecaster2995]

Buddy, about joining the enclave, I dont know what to tell ya...

[@Kendzir96]

Enclave sucks, but their power armor looks really cool, especially the one from arcade

[@matukite2459]

Unlike the boring ass factions like NCR , BoS. The Enclave and The Legion are more memorable.

[@oskarrmason9617]

Did you know there was a mod that added Judy Hopps Outfit/Armour from Zootopia in to Fallout New Vegas on PC, which the modder made so over powered🤯. The outfit's got a DT of 150, +10 to Strength, +10 to Perception, +10 to Agility, +10 to Luck and +100 to Sneak, +100 to Survival, +100 to Guns, +100 to Unarmed, +75 to Radiation Resistance, +50 to Poison Resistance +75 AP in vates and with a weight of 2, So yeah very OP😮.

[@willlauzon3744]

There is a great Khan armoury?
