I really want a stealth field added to the Stealth Suit MK II armor, it would really make it more worthwhile to use.

To me it's one of the cooler armors, mostly because of how it looks, (I look really good with this armor, recon beret, lucky shades (ulysses mask when radiated) and a nice lil sniper rifle on my back).

And ofc, battle is 75% how you look while battling. But seriously.


Sure, the +25 stealth skill could be useful I guess

The +1 perception is pretty much useless, because those going for perception would have full anyway (four eyes +3 lucky shades and +1 from beret, 6 base+implant)

The agility could be nice, but I wish perception could be removed and be replaced with agility. So perhaps +2 agility?

Anyhow, I loved the chinese stealth armor in fallout 3, it made me feel hi-tech, and since this armor is suppose to be even more hi-tech......couldn't it please have a stealth field?

This armor already has much lower DT than Elite riot gear, it doesn't have bonus critical chance etc as riot gear does, but couldn't it have something really nice please?

There is nothing wrong with the Stealth Suit Mk.II's bonuses. It's not designed to be worn all the time, and it isn't designed to help someone max their stats. it doesn't really need a stealth field since this would invalidate the +27(total) Sneak bonus. That, and Obsidian was trying to avoid the "dual invincible armors" thing that was provided in OA. You have StealthBoys for stealth fields, and they're rather common.

IMO, the best way to improve the suit would be to:
Change it to a Light armor.
REMOVE the auto-injection of Med-X and Stimpaks. This does nothing but waste supplies. At present, this is the reason the suit goes straight into my "unique items" container and never leaves it.

As is, the Stealth Suit Mk. II is useless only because it vapes all your supplies and is a Medium armor. Were these different, it would probably become my favorite armor in the game for a stealth character.

If you're on PC, I recommend http://www.newvegasnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=42911. Not only does it make the Stealth Suit Mk II much more useful, it also makes it look much cooler!
