Fallout 3 Hints
T-51b Power Armor
1 of 4: This unique power armor has the following properties: damage resistance +50, rad resistance +25.
2 of 4: Do the "You Gotta Shoot 'Em in the Head" misc. quest, then check its post-quest notes to learn how to get to the power armor.
3 of 4: NOTES: You won't be able to wear it or any other power armor until after you get power armor training, which is only possible after you finish the first two sets of Main Quests or the Operation: Anchorage game add-on. Also, you can't ever repair it yourself, so you'll have to either keep paying to have it repaired, or give it to a follower who can wear it. (See the Followers List.)
4 of 4: TIP: If you have the Broken Steel add-on game installed and are fairly high-level, some Enclave soldiers will have special hellfire armor that has the same damage resistance, plus 30 points of fire resistance and a +1 bonus to Strength. (They do have 10 points less of rad resistance, though.)
