Just fast travelled to the Prydwen to recover my power armour, realized I had Valentine with me

oops

Side note: I want need Raider Power Armour.

Raider power armor is shit.

Looks super good, though.

Also, would it be necessary to lead my T-60c armour? Even without the lead, the pieces combined have over 1,000 rad resistance.

I leaded mine (T-60b, with an e torso) and still picked up a decent amount of radiation (none from foodstuffs, either—I installed the scrubbers on the helmet). But I also went standing around in a pool of radioactive God only fucking knows what, which set the Geiger counter right the hell off.

You're over-prepared to be honest.

The Glowing Sea isn't all that difficult as long as you have at least two brain cells to rub together and aren't mutie scum.

Cool. I'm just worried about my meager Fusion Core supply (12-14, I forget the exact amount.) won't last me. But I suppose we'll see. Once I'm ready to depart I'll post what I'm bringing.

That's more than enough fusion cores to get throw the Glowing Sea. As long as you don't sprint you can make those last a very long time.

No.

I started with one that was around 90% charged, and finished with the same one at 30%. Absolutely didn't need those thirty backups.

T-60 is the worst power armor

get better T-51 or X-01

I feel like that may have been a cause of it

It's weird, cores seem to last a very short period of time for me.

No.

Cool, I won't bother then, the components to lead are somewhat rare and I won't be bothered if I don't have to.

Do you do a lot of stuff that uses AP? Also, you don't use cores at all while fast travelling. I went and scouted around the south of the map before going into the Sea to find somewhere close I could fast travel to.

Uh, I try not to. VATS, I guess. I noticed the fast travelling thing, actually. I cleared out the Interchange Turnpike so I think I'll be fast travelling there.

Dunno what it might be, then.

Yeah, I know, it's weak, but I don't have the gun nut skill high enough to get the tri-barrel and make the gun viable. I stopped using it after the first Deathclaw I encountered

I've never had 12 fusion cores at once.
Right now I have 10, which is the most I've ever had at a single point. I have 35 hours in so far.

Seriously, where the fuck are you guys getting all these cores!?

I've gotten up to 36 fusion cores by just exploring and shit. I've only bought like 3 so far.

[Esternial]

About to embark on my journey into the Glowing Sea. I'll be taking my BoS T60c Power Armour with me, but I'll need to lead it the fuck up, first. I'll also be wearing my Hazmat suit constantly. I have a metric fuckton of Rad-Away and Rad-X stored up since I don't usually use it too often, about thirty of Rad-Away and about fifty Rad-X stored. I'm bringing Valentine with me because I'm lazy and I don't want to bother equipping another follower with radiation protection.

As for Weapons, I'm going to be travelling light, storing the majority of my weaponry back at my old home in Sanctuary. I'll be taking a Minigun, my Fat Man, my trusty Sniper Rifle, Ripper as a sidearm. Since I don't really know what to expect to face there, does anybody have any suggestions as to what else I should bring?

I went with my standard BoS T60b and everything was fine. Brought Danse with me 'cus BoS buddies.

It's nice to have a follower with their own power armour. Later I had Piper use one I made for her and after a few trips into the wild she got most of her armour pieces wrecked.

I had 21 at one point. That was before I started wearing my power armour 24/7

One I found in a trashcan. Others I got from the BoS. Others I got from machines.

I tend to switch before they run out because the value of a fusion core doesn't depend on its charge. "Yes, trader, buy my 1% fusion cores!"

[New Frenco Empire]

Cleared out all wannabe-Enclave Brotherhood scum aboard the Prydwen while wearing X-01. Pretty sure Maxson shit his pants when I came to knock on his door and expose him for the poser bitch he is. :>

Left with a shit-ton of Brotherhood goodies, too. About 100 pounds over-encumbered with power armor on. Took me a good five minutes to stomp back to the vertibird after filling up Piper. I figured Tinker Tom would atleast drop me off near HQ so I could store my seven Gatling lasers until I could come and collect them later, but no...literally like fifty feet away from the airport and right next to a raider camp. Not to mention the fact that i didn't even get to see very much of the explosion because of his shitty flying!

This is going to be an amazing walk back. In the end, I guess Maxson really did get the last laugh.

Also, Gauss Rifle = instant win. Even without charging up the shots, it cuts through T-60 like paper.

No offense, but holy fuck that loadout is absolutely terrible for late-game areas. What level are you?

I have 42. :>

Before my little romp on the Prydwen, I still had about 25.

Yeah, like what Franco said, that loadout is really bad for late game areas and the Glowing Sea. The only somewhat decent weapon you have for it is the hunting rifle but that's only good for long range. And even then, it's out performed by a .50 cal hunting rifle like my Riba II.

My loadout for the Glowing Sea (and my current loadout, plus an assault rifle, guass rifle, and the Deliverer) was as follows:

The Ejaculator - heavily modified plasma rifle

• 133 per-shot damage
• 227 range
• 148 accuracy

The Bar-Coder - heavily modified combat rifle

• 78 (or 88, I can't recall) per-shot damage
• 191 range
• 83 accuracy

The Red Rocket * - heavily modified laser rifle

• 129 per-shot damage
• 251 range
• 82 accuracy

* The name is reference to a dog's penis and not the coolant station

Edit: Yeah when it comes to naming my weapons I have the mentality of a USMC Lance Corporal (I named the guass rifle 'The Cum Shot')

Also based off that loadout, I'm assuming your below level 20. In which case I'd way until level 25-ish to go through the Glowing Sea so you can invest in the Rifleman and Commando perks and get tons of extra damage with rifles.

[Husseinarti]

You must go full muhreen and name your power armor

Rifleman Protected Force Multiplier Suit.

I would if the game gave you the option to name your power armor sets.

Provided, I could just edit the game files, which would be a good opportunity to rename 'Military green' to 'Green Weenie Green'
