Hi,

I placed my power armor in his "chassis", just in front of my Diamond City house,

and when i came later, it was stolen ...

Should i go to Valentine agency to retrieve it ?

Be careful, don't put your X-01 armor here...

You left the keys in, didn't ya XD

(always remove fusion core when you "park" your PA!!)

lol I actually love that there's a possibility of having your power armor stolen in the game. It makes the world feel so much believable. I just wish that there was a system in place to have people pickpocket your items. I know that it would upset a lot of people but there could be a radiant quest activation to locate the whereabouts of the thief so that you can recover your items. Perception could help you defend yourself against pickpockets by catching them in the act.

Preston isn't irritating enough for you?

Exactly what I was going to say.

Never leave the keys in the ignition. The OP was asking for trouble.

And he/she didn't even say "Hi Jack!" before stealing the PA, eh?

Be careful also in Sanctuary or any settlement, because if they are attacked, the peoples use your Power armor, and some of them don't remove it...

Marcy long used the power armor, but removed it when the enemies have been cleared...,

More than this, at the same time, my X-01 Armor have disappeared, may be one of the settlers have used it, and removed to one unknown place, i searched it with no result...

So i tried to reload a save, and come to sanctuary again, but another setler took another of my power armor but don't removed it...

I tried to talk with him for exchange, but no way, he only thank me for helping (tried 3 time)...

So hopefully, the third time, i loaded a save, runned to the place where the enemi was (écorcheur - don't know his name in english), killed it quickly; and before my settler notified the danger i runned to the armors to remove the fusion core...

Really Bethesda should do something about this !!!

They took my armor, ok, but they should replace it in their place (in the chassis)... GRRRRRRRR

Really Bethesda should do something about this !!!

So you want Bethesda to come over and take your power cores out of your power armor for you? Seriously....

I've had a random Minuteman steal my PA when there was no attack (I took it off to build stuff at the Castle, saved, quit, reloaded next day and... he's just striding around for lols.

Also had Nick Valentine steal it one time when I was trying to repair it at a remote location (and I could not fast travel) and some raiders showed up.

lol

Another option if you have the jet pack, just park your PA ontop of a building and it should be safe. I have had like several PA's on one roof and no one ever ran off with them.

Take the fusion cores out of any suit you don't want anyone to use.

And yes, the game should make it more clear to you that your suits will get taken and used if you don't do this.

npc's don't need fusion cores in a PA^^

my comps are all operating the PA without a fusion core loaded...

Left the 'keys' in the Power Armor?

Don't be surprised if it is gone

I have heard of this happening and i have left PA deliberately at settlements to be taken but i haven't seen it yet.

i really don't think this is a bug or something that needs to be fixed. You can buy chassis from some vendors and there are lots of places with abandoned power armour waiting to be snatched up in the game as it is, do we really need to make it so NPCs ignore a player's power armour? There are more chassis in the game than the player can use so its not an issue, at least I don't think it is.

Bethesda should leave it exactly as it is now. I also lost my power armor once and I learned my lesson (hmm, mostly). Put out the fusion core of it. It's especially exciting when I come back to my place after a longer journey and I know that I forgot to put the fusion core out. Is the PA still there? Till now I was lucky but I park the PA also in a place where only Dogmeat and Codsworth are around ususally.
