#powerarmor - Hry
Ok. I think I will have to explain this myself.
Let's start from the beginning.
The X-01 was a prewar prototype developed in the Withespring bunker before the Great War. After the bombs fell, Modus sended the blueprints to the Poseidon Oil Rig.
Decades later, the Enclave started to improve this power armor, manufacturing the Advanced Power Armor MKI (APA MKI).
By the time when Fallout 2 tooks place, the Enclave had developed not only the APA MKI, but its successor: the APA MKII.
The APA MKII was used by several soldiers of the Enclave around 2242. For example, Sg. Arch Dornan. It can also be found at the Poseidon Oil Rig.
What happened when Bethesda released Fallout 3? They changed the style of the APA MKII. Now, the canon APA MKII looks like the "Enclave Power Armor".
Now, pay attention:
In Fallout 2, you can clearly see that the APA MKII is better in every single way than the APA MKI.
So try to do as if all the statistics of the power armor in Fallout 3 had never existed. This is because what Bethesda did with the power armor in Fallout 3 was the biggest disaster of all the lore of Fallout series.
Several decades after the release of the APA MKII, the Enclave developed the Hellfire Power Armor, which could be called "APA MKIII". Something really important is that Lonesome Roads refers to this power armor as "Prototype X-03".
To finish this, I will make some points:
The X-01 is not the APA MKI, but the prototype used to make it.
The X-02 has never existed, but would be a very good name to refer to the APA MKII. This armor is better than the APA MKII in all ways (ignore Fallout 3, please). To confirm this, read the lab terminals of the Citadel. They say that the Enclave soldiers look almost the same as the ones seen in 2242 at the west coast. Also, you can read a tactical evaluation of Enclave forces, which says "Armor: Advanced Power Armor MKII", meaning that is the same that you can find at the Poseidon Oil Rig, the same that Dornan uses.
The Hellfire Power Armor is, actually, the sole model of Enclave power armor that is really called "X-03", and you could call it "Advanced Power Armor MKIII", if you want.
Hope that this helps you.
Thanks! Very informative!
I should've used the original names as it was in the games
No problem, I'm happy to help.
Great video, by the way.
@@elcentinelafo4523
Which makes zero sense.
The Enclave Power Armor aka X-02 being (slightly) worse than the X-01 makes more sense than it just being better in every way.
The 01 was a top of the line Prototype with very hefty manifacturing costs. The 02 was not as good, but cheaper to produce which is why the Enclave was able to largely outfit all their Soldiers with it even in the middle of the Post Apocalypse.
First of all. "X-02" it's not even a thing. The real name is "Advanced Power Armor MKII".
Second, you can find this armor in Fallout 2. As you will see in the game, is better in every way than the APA MKI. Also, every soldier has this armor at the Poseidon Oil Rig, so that "need of resources" has been never a problem. Where did you hear that? I have played every Fallout but Tactics and this seems to be a misunderstanding of Fallout fans who never played Fallout 2 or New Vegas.
Moreover, did you play New Vegas? Obsidian fixed Bethesda's error making the T-51 and the APA MKI worst than the APA MKII and the Hellfire Power Armor. You can see this just comparing their stats.
Canon is canon, and the APA MKII is better than the MKI.
@@elcentinelafo4523
"Canon is canon, and the APA MKII is better than the MKI."
- the guy who ignores canon 😂
The Hellfire has a special spot in my heart. The Enclave made special power armor just so they can burn muties to death with more ease. It brings a tear to my American eyes…
It's sad that the enclave is a unjoinable faction, the closest thing we got is help the remnants (eden does not count that is just a genocidal toaster not the president of america)
@@nonenonymous sounds very american
The hellfire is my favourite too I love how bulky it looks now

The Enclave armor featured in fallout 2 and new vegas isnt XO-1, but rather APA MK1 / 2 , a highly advanced suit created by the Enclave on the San Francisco oil rig post war.
The XO-1 was the prewar prototype of this armor. The Enclave just improved and finalised the design, they're related, but not the same.
It IS the X-01. APA is the “layman’s term” while x-01 is the formal/model name. Same reason why t-51 is called “power armor” in fallout 1/2 and the same for the t-45 in fallout 3. X-01 was simply called “advanced power armor”because that’s all it was in fallout 2 and 3: the super cool new power armor that only the enclave had the capability to mass produce while wastelanders and brotherhood had to make use of the antique models.
@@KristopherPrimethat’s just wrong. the x-01 is a pre war prototype. advanced power armor is an enclave design. you can see the differences between the x01 and apa in game
@@KristopherPrime76 actually canonized them being separate armor sets
@@jose97777 I am well aware the x-01 is a pre-war prototype armor that the enclave continued the development of. As for differences, they are minor. Each fallout game generation has a difference in design for recurring armors and elements that in reality would make the t-51b of fallout 3/NV different power armor from the version in 4 or 76. If anything, the minor design just prove my point for the x-01. They are still at their core the same power armor model, the enclave just made some improvements before eventually making the next sets of x-series/APA: X-02/APA Mk2 and X-03/Hellfire
@@driftyplague769 how so? It just seems to further confirm what I said, if anything.
Despite having lots of flaws, I gotta say Fallout 4 power armor is the best. It perfectly fits what power armor should be, older games feel like it is just a very heavy equipment. Kudos to the dev team for at least getting on point with something
only gripe is the core running out in like 15 minutes, i get it for balancing reasons tho
@@jtrei1737with level 3 of nuclear physicist and the repair bobble head it lasts like 35 minutes, with just exploring around with the scrounger perk and killing sentry bots you can get dozens
@@thesovietonion4671 damn did not know.. thanks mate
@@jtrei1737you’re welcome
Fallout 4's power armor is extremely obese and comical. It's not practical to be a huge target on the battlefield, and in reality one rocket from a missile launcher should make quick work of several units. The hand-to-eye coordination when operating the hands is also an added impracticality. The 3/NV style not only makes sense, but gives you the feeling of a fit hero.
Critique Fallout 4 as much as you want but they got power armor RIGHT! All the other games its just a cool suit of armor, but 4's power armor? You could bear hug the megaton nuke while it went off and be absolutely fine!
In F4 a power armor can protect you from a god demm rocket engine
Agree but bethesda managed to make it bad with fusion core dammit
The repair bobblehead and nuclear physicist in question @@ndsa2965
@@ndsa2965 This is why I can't imagine using power armor without the nuclear physicist and scrounger perk.
Scrounger usually gets me to at least 60 cores by level 30 and nuclear physicist keeps my collection from dwindling.
@ultraswagmeister yep it's not immersive at all and it's annoying but I kinda get it cause on any difficulty below very hard it feels almost impossible to die in power armor.
Say what you will about Fallout 4, but one thing you have to admit, they nailed the Power Armors.
I rag on 4 but I can't deny this.
@@ElStink4Kyeah I personally hate a lot about 4 with the janky settlement system that is pushed heavily in the quests and terrible writing but power armor does make you feel like a tank although the whole fusion core thing did kind of make me avoid power armor for most of the game but is still pretty cool feeling
wasn't enclave power armor from fallout 2 and NV a MK1 power armor?
i think it's not same as X01 power armor (x01 was created before great war, and mk1 after)
You're right, it's not the same.
Fallout 2 and New Vegas has Advanced Power Armor, which was the evolution of X-01.
There is also mark 2 advanced power armor that I call equalizer that is in 76.
@@Kapitan_Sladek X01 and Advanced power armor are the same or at least the Advanced Power Armor Mark I is a sidegrade improvement to the X-01 and had a new designation post war. For some reason the Mark 1 was also called the Mark 2 in the first two Fallouts
The power armour in fallout 2 is called advanced power armour in the inventory. But it’s military designation is “Mark 2 powered combat armour” as referred to by the character Seargent arch Dornan from fallout 2.
Much like @Kapitan_Sladek I believe X-01 is the precursor to the “advanced mark 2 powered combat armour “
Mark 2 power armor yeah. It was vasically a step up from the X-01. They are different for sure.
x02 gotta be my favorite. love the horns
Fallout 4 has the best power armor in all the games by a design point and realism.
The only flaw it have - common frame for all types. This makes different PA just customized plates insted of different mechanisms. Its better each PA had its own frame with uniqe design and properties.
the X-01 goes so hard in FO4 goddamn
I wish the eyes were bigger but other than that it's epic.
@@SuperCrow02 The eyes should be yellow
@@Myst291they are yellow if you turn the flashlight on
@@Ga6riel30 They should be yellow without the light on like how the hellfire pa is
Arcade's power armor and the Outcast t-51 is probably my favorite power armor designs across all games. That being said, Fallout 4 still makes power armor FEEL the best.
Yeah, it feels awesome, heavy and super protective, as it should
I love jumping off of any tall structure while using one, the “boom” sound is amazing
Always liked how the Enclave armors helmet is designed to look like an angry wasp (the eyes) with horns
bros checking them out 1:34
The X-01 is my favorite, it looks so good.
If theres one thing that the newer games did so much better is that it got using power armor perfectly to a T, you feel strong inside one.
I don't feel strong in it I feel like the least overweight Walmart shopper
By the time i found the helfire in fallout 3 was the time the game was unplayable due to the game constantly crashing. Still my favorite armor type tho.
what I like about the x-02 and the hellfire power armor is that they bear a striking resemblance to the power armor of the midwestern brotherhood I like the reminder that they can end up just like the enclave or even worse than them and yes I consider them canon and the calculator destroyed and simon barnaky rescued (yeah he is my asshole so what? plus it's sergeant hartmann). I like that Maximus in the TV Series shares his name with Maximus Leader of the Dagger Squad that assist the Warrior in taking Vault 0.
Love these fun suits!
I know that the hellfire armor in fallout 4 is meant for large flamethrowers but I decided to make it a stealth suit with the stealth boy torso upgrade and put red lights
imagine a person using the fallout 4 X-01 suit and starts running towards you irl
Any in world reason why these armors look different across the games? Is it an East Coast vs West Coast thing?
Older system limitations
Anybody get reminded of like a jaguar or something with the helmet on the hellfire. Also you could’ve added Tesla stuff and enclave paint to the xo 1 from fo4
I always think of a dog when i see the hellfire helmet lmao
X02 exist??
Advanced Power Armor my beloved. Titans of the New West gives it such a glow-up in New Vegas!
(APA ain't the same as the X-01, there are very clear and obvious differences both in design and lore, so I refer to them seperately. Thanks for the video though!)
sergeant dornan would absolutely go off on you if you mistook ADVANCED POWERED COMBAT ARMOUR MARK II for its far inferior prototype
X01 is my favorite, especially in 4 just because you feel like a tank
turn on the comments on the Starfield and Skyrim comparison
X-01 my favorite power armor❤👍
While it's unclear if they are related (something people will often argue about the X-01 and the APA from FO2), I would also toss the power armor & advanced power armor from Fallout Tactics alongside the X-02 Black Devil armor, as it seems to have been the IRL inspiration for its Fallout 3 incarnation. Lore-wise, FO Tactics is in a gray area where only parts of it are canon, namely BoS airships and a detachment heading east before Lyons, while the retconned origins of the BoS, indicating that they came form a vault, is certainly not canon.
The X 02 of New Vagas looks like a cossplay
you actually missed the enclave power armor thats in new vegas, you need console commands to get it, but it exists
I wouldn't count stuff that's unobtainable.
@@hermos3602 it's fully modeled and animated and not bugged at all. and it's a different model than 3 or 4 or 76 so it should be included
@@Winfury-thunderfuryAs far as i know, this armor looks exactly like F3 version.
Fallout New Vegas looks badass with the running animation
The Enclave power armor mark 2 is always be my favorite🔥🔥
I can't recall the Power Armor in New Vegas being that... unsightly...
X01 isn't remnants power armor... X01 is the prototype of remnants power armor, and the fallout 2 power armor is actually called APA Mk1 or Advanced power armor mk1.
Fallout 4 def got some thicc boys
The X-01 from Fallout 4/76 is actually a prototype to the Enclave's Advanced Power Armor from MK II. They're not the same thing.
They are tho. When you upgrade X-01 it is called mk2. The mk1 is the pre war version. The only reason there are others in 4 and 76 is for gameplay. Same reason some guns in those games shoot bullets but deal plasma damage or a knife can freeze a person.
@@jakupsundoe6226 X-01 is a pre war prototype created just before the bombs fell, the enclave took this design and used it to create the advanced power armour. they look similar but they're not the same set of power armour.
@@SirConfectionery bro in the canon tabletop game it explicitly called enclave power armor x-01 mk2. The only pre war variant was mk1. The only reason it’s in 4/76 is gameplay reasons. Same reason you can get a plasma infused gun or a gun that slows time, game play.
No its not. Im getting sick of this sh*t. APA is X01. Bethesda has completely bastardized the setting of Fallout. They did that to confuse people and it seems to have worked. Not on me. They can F themselves. X01 is APA, and its POST WAR FFS.
FNV actually has X02 n hellfire if I’m not wrong
Leftover assets from FO3
They aren’t obtainable in game, they can only be accessed with console commands
I think it's funny how much the fallout 4 power armor version of the enclave is better than the other ones from previous ones.
X0 2 is in fallout 2 also btw but it just refuses x0 1 sprites
You should check out some Fallout 76 enclave power armor, you might be impressed!
stop confusing APA with X-01.
Stop confusing them for separate things. X-01 and APA are canonically one and the same.
@@KristopherPrimeX-01 was developed pre-war, APA was developed by the Enclave after the bombs had dropped, APA is just a slight upgrade
@@Angelcat710 I am well aware the APA is the X-01 upgraded post-war.
@@Angelcat710 x-01 holds the special distinction of being both pre-war and post-war. It was prototyped before the war, but upgraded by the enclave after. This detail is reinforced by the APA mk 2. In fallout 2, it was a modified version of the mark 1, until the Eastern Enclave finalized its design by fallout 3, creating the X-02 and later X-03 (aka Hellfire).
@@KristopherPrime NO. Thats Bethesda's stupidity that tried to pass it off. X01 IS STILL APA, aka ENCLAVE POWER ARMOR. people giving Bethesda a pass for really f*CKING IT UP. Its POSE WAR. ffs.
The X-02 power armor with a T-45 helmet looked amazing in Fallout 3 and Fallout 4.
🦾🤖
Advanced Power Armor is not X-01, buddy. X-01 is a pre-war prototype model, Advanced Power Armor is a development of that.
I hate how skinny the armor is in nv and 3. But in 4 the designs are so peak
The X-02 Tesla in F4 is a mod right!
It’s in the new update
@@Average_Enclave_Soldier where can I found it?
I feel like the APA MK1/X01 and Hellfire look better on the Fallout 4 frame and the APA MK2 and Tesla Armor look best in Fallout 3, like its design was for a smaller body.
The X-01>>>>>>> Over the X-O2 imo, would've rather they just kept that, though I do appreciate the Hellfire power armor too.
The only question remains, why characters handling rifles with two hands when they can just handle in one hand
Ну, не сказал бы что прицеливаться винтовкой одной рукой это удобно
X01 in NV:🐝 X01 in FO4:🦾👹🦾
Every other game: power armor(?)
Fallout 4: POWER ARMOR!
Why is fo3 and fonv power armor so skinny
It's actually pretty funny because I used to have an opinion that power armor in Fallout 3/NV is too skinny and in F4/76 it is far more too bulky and the most amazingly fitting into setting vibe so far was made in New Vegas by modders developing this aspect of the game (including more hardass/heavy movement animations to it). I hope they'll (anyone who's taking control over the ip) downgrade the scale of this armor in the future.
2:12 best 👌
I know it’s similar to Fallout 4, but no Fallout 76?
They still think its a trash game
For those who dont know X01 is not APA, the older games used advanced power armor which was enclave produced armor, fallout 3s is different that 2 and new vegases because it is made in the east with cheaper resources, 2 and nvs were made on the enclave oil rig off the coast of california within the inbuilt factories upon the poseidon oil rig which was designed as a vast improvement to the X01 power armor and looked COMPLETELY different, snd the creation club x02 is not actually lore accurate as it is actuslly ravenrock Mk2 apa, aswell as x03 being adams afb hellfire power armor, i hope this lets you learn the differences.
x-01 and apa have the same design look at fallout 4s loading screen "The X-01 series of Power Armor was specially engineered and employed by remnants of the U.S. military after the Great War, and offers increased protection over the older, pre-war models." bethesda just messed up lore with nuka world yes x01 looks different than advanced power armor in fallout 2 but the t-51 also looks different than in fallout 1 its just a different art style
Bro that’s autistic. Armor looks different because it’s better graphics and art direction
@@stocky_ It pisses me off how stupid people have become. X01 IS APA, Post War Enclave Power Armor.
the Bethesda so bad nowadays if they only would upgrade quality of added modded itms in game just like tesla canon have better texture of lightning or tesla bulbs on shoulders of x-02 would have electric arc it would be such sick (like in new vegas have this sort of arc). But they only just make mods with "mods quality" of texture in game....
I don't like the Fallout 4 adaptations of X0-2. It doesn't look like it has the same polish and re-design of X0-1. It looks like they just, kind of took fallout 3's existing one and stapled it over the frame without really re-designing it for 4.
It was made by a modder and bestheda just decided to include thier work in the base game afterwards,that's why it doesn't look as good as the others
Agreed. There’s a really good mod that adds in a far better looking X-02 into the game. The 76 model for the X-02 is also a lot better
I don't think APA Mk1 is X-01, X-01 is a prototype and I think APA Mk1 is based on it.
look at the fallout 4 loading screen x01 is apa theres
@@stocky_ no, x-01 is pre war, APA is post war developed by the Enclave.

Xo1 in fo4 looks so nasty idc why it just bothers me
Fallout 3 is my favorite fallout ❤
okay... why does some power armor in some games look so damn skinny???
The fact that enclave power armor in FO3 and FNV are just like wearing normal armor
Thats the only reason why FO4 has best power armor design despite being bad weapon design
They shodu increase a litlel bit the amount of time from the fisión cores and it woudl be perfect, whit the perk fusión boy it can last like 30 minuts that shoud be the standar
@@ROLITO-G-243 I find the game would be too easy if they spoon fed power armor to be useable 24/7 and thats coming from a survival difficulty player. Plus dont forget on top of the fusion boy perk there is also the bobblehead which increases fusion core duration by another 10%
where is t-60 tesla power armor?
? t-60 only exists on fo4
Not enclave

@@Crocc101 yes and also the backpack
It is known fact that there was NO X-02 or X-03 (hellfire) power armors in fallout 4. They were as unnoficial mods and were added with a recent patch.
So for me there is still NO official good-looking "modern" enclave power armor.
They were official mods you could buy through the creation club and no they were not added to the games by a recent patch. I have no idea who told you that but it’s definitely not a known fact
Doesn't the Echoes of the Past update make them basically canon in Fallout 4 tho considering it technically officiates the content?
@@My_Most_Honest_Reaction For me F3 and F4 are out of canon. New Vegas is a true 3rd Fallout. F4 offers nice gameplay concept of power armor, but it conflicts lore.
Fallout new Vegas will always be my favorite, with that being said, Fallout 4’s power armor wins.
X-01 from fallout 4 is not Enclave Power Armor
where is fo76?
Fallout 3 and New Vegas power armors are an abomination, simple as that. In Fallout 4 they finally captured the look and bulkiness from Fallout 1 and 2.
The fact is Todd Howard would've never added if Obsidian didn't aknowledge Enclave's power armor existence in Fallout 2.
I don't get why people just assume they know what Todd Howard is thinking? I guess he lives rent free in your head if people keep making petty comments like this.
I actually hated how power armour looked in new vegas and 3 bc it just looks like armour not some awesome suit
The X-02 in F4 looks strange, the helmet looks smaller, I like the version that the modders made
X01 armour isn't the same as the armour from FO2 and New Vegas
Still, TOTNW is the best.
New Vegas is the best IMO
Fallout 3 & NVs power armor designs are objectively lazy. all the lore is right there, and they still look like a cosplay outfit.
Being a comically obese robot isn’t very intimidating, nor is it practical.
@@randomvideas4306 all the lore confirms that power armor is a huge bulky peice of war equipment with several issues & it's not perfect. The whole point of the armor is so American troops could carry weapons meant for tanks and light vehicles into battle against the Chinese. It's more like a peice of heavy lifting equipment, a wearable vehicle. Respect + love to you anyway bro.
@@jokujoeEvery Fallout game before 4 depicts Power Armor as heroic and muscular, not obese. Even 1 and 2, when you look closely, show PA as a moderately sized suit. You can be bulky whilst not being fat and being a big target. Additionally, the hand-to-eye coordination with the mechanical hands must be a pain, I mean other than carrying heavy weapons the suit depicted in 4 lacks versatility. When in war, you must be able to complete a variety of tasks quickly without having to exist and enter your armor.
@@randomvideas4306 i absolutely agree bro just saying imo makes no sense that in F3 and NV they look like normal costumes They dont change your height or anything, Like they dont even look like armor, it looks really bad, in my opinion. if you like them that's fine!

The X-02 looks bad, lame. The mod that existed already was a perfect adaptation.
This really reminds me how everything in Fallout 4 looks like plastic. Why did they design everything to look like a 3D printed kids toy? Nuka dark rum looking ahh 💀
F4 X02 doesn't look that good. Mods did that armour justice.
Unoctium one x02 frigging dope... It has the cyro upgrade.
Yeah the mods for X-02 make it look INSANELY scary. Def worthy of being beyond the APA
unoctium, newermind's recreation from 76, cipher arguably having the best one of them
however the one in the game is incredibly nice as well
X 01 will always look better than X 02
Controversial opinion fallout 3 looks the best.
New Vegas’s armors look too top heavy and 4’s look massive, like bro we’re normal people not frank Horagan
3 and newegas power armour sucks it’s too skinny and is just a normal suit
I must admit Fallout 3/New Vegas power armour sucks they just don't have the bulk or weight of what powered armour really is.
>X-01
>Fallout 2
Fun fact:You can have X-02 power armor by downloading the premium version of Fallout new vegas.
Fo3, and NV power armors look like garbage, and dont capture the feelings of bulk and power the first 2 games had for them, but was recaptured in F4.
That being said the power armors in FO76 are way better.
F4 X-02 looks terrible
Fallout 76 x-02 look better than fallout 4.
there's no x02 in Fallout 4, it can be added with mod only.
It was added with "Next gen" update, and quests too
the new update adds the armor.
They're part of next gen update. The Hellfire design from 4 was also used for 76, so it's fully canon
X-01 IS NOT THE SAME AS THE ADVANCED POWER ARMOR.
I dunno, fallout 4 version looks kind of bland to me tbh
It may look bland, but at least it's not ugly like in New Vegas.
Dude.. seriously... power armor before FO4 are a piece of shi.t
everyone complaining about fallout 4 power armor when the fallout 3 and new vegas ones look goofy as hell
I forgot how terrible the Enclave Power Armor looked in New Vegas.
FNV and F03 power armors are disgrace to the series.
