      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.

      Even though their main operations were at the oil rig and navarro, they had other enclave bases and outposts scattered throughout the country (they lost contact with them so we don’t know how the others are doing). These guys came from the west. Still doesn’t change the fact that the Enclave shouldn’t have an entire army since they were brought to the brink and had no contact with the others

    A good alternative to the Sierra security armor is the vault 34 security armor it's light with a DT of 16 so actually 1 better than the combat armor and with the jury rig perk it can be repaired with any set of light armor which you are going to want because it has a low item health of 100 and you can get the vault 34 helmet which has a DT of 3 but an item health of 25 but with jury rig should be really easy to repair as well so you'll have a total DT of 19 plus what ever you have invested in the toughness perk with a light armor set that you don't need dlc to acquire

    I want to mention Joshua Graham's unique armour you get at the end of Honest Hearts. It's DT is only 15, so it's understandable it's not on this list. But it looks really good, isn't faction armour, and has a 5% crit bonus! And since it counts as light armour, it also stacks with the Light Touch perk for even more critical chance.
    You can also complete Honest Hearts very early in your playthrough. I ended up using it until I got the elite riot gear from Lonesome Road.

    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.

    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.

    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.

      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?

    Another way to get a non faction T51-b is by going to the armory after becoming a member of the brotherhood, another version of remnants power armor is found at the enclave bunker.

    The security armor from the Sierra Madre reminds me of the Cobra Viper action figure from GI Joe. It's my favorite armor for this reason, I was a GI Joe aficionado when I was a kiddo.

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

    Just started a knee play-through and reinforced leather armor is really doing me well but I’ll probably switch to one of these.

    Its pretty cool that the Sierra Madre Security Armor is pretty good for being security armor. High DT and easy to get at the beginning of Dead Money.
