What apparel would you never wear

Post » Sat May 28, 2011 8:38 pm

I figured since we had a what weapon you never use that we should do the same for apparel.

I personally would never wear a motorcycle helmet. Have you ever seen Seagrave Holmes? :eek:

Ya, and he's pretty cute if you can get him out of it. lol. Although, if you are playing on a console it's a lot of work.

I will not, under any circumstances, ok, well maybe if I was stark naked and had to go fight through the MQ of Broken Steel and needed to wear something, then I would, but otherwise, I would never, ever wear the T-51b PA. I think it is the ugliest stuff ever. I'd rather wear a tattered slave outfit from The Pitt.

I never wear a vault suit (besides the armored one) after I visit Megaton. It's just useless, but I never wear motorcycle helmets or pre war relax or casual wear. I hate those! I love grimy prewar business wear though.

Agreed.

Nothing girly either, but then all girl stuff turns magically into men stuff doesn`t it? I still never wear anything that a girl`s been wearing just in case my character suddenlt turns up in a pretty frock.

I have sometimes ended up completely naked though. I always play in 1st person and sometimes I accidentally disable what I`m wearing or drop it. An hour later after walking thru Megaton or wherver I`ll take an ego look at myself to discover I`ve been stalkers all along! :drool:

I second this, it looks absolutely ridiculous. :laugh:

Now I'm intrigued. So how do you get that hideous thing off Seagrave's head? Is it one of those complicated reverse pickpocket operations involving three different types of hat, some glasses, a hockey mask and a crunchy mutfruit?

I think all power armour is pretty ugly other than the Outcast version, which is the coolest thing ever. :yes:

Most if not all power armor. I do like this one modded set. Can't think of the name be use I haven't had a peered armor toon in forever. Vault suits have their places. I tend to only wear one if I'm that particular vault. Otherwise I hang em on a mannequin.

Lol. I've done this many times. I switch in-between first and third person a lot.... sometimes I wonder why I'm getting hurt so bad, look down and realize that I'm either in my underwear or my Vault Utility Suit (for the repair and lockpick bonus.)

Did exactly this when fighting my way out of the Taft Tunnel. Enclave troops must have had a laugh. :blush2:

Crow's Eye Helm. UGLY! Motorcycle helmet, basically the same.

Wastelander/Brahmin outfits. (Except Roving Trader, that one actually looks good)


For those dis'ing the power armor though, it can be quite fun to make a power armor (I like Tesla) / VATS / melee or unarmed only guy who charges through heavy fire then beats foes to death with a power fist or supersledge or the like. You should try it sometime.

I can do that with wasteland surgeon outfit. And if it's outcasts I generally use the repellant stick.

Yes but you look meaner in the Tesla armor. Also, while the above is certainly possible via game mechanics I find that it rubs my suspension of disbelief the wrong way. Shrugging off gatling laser and minigun rounds on approach then demonstrating the raw physical power to beat a fully armored opponent to death seems more "realisitc" in heavy power armor then wastelander garb.

I would never wear Doctor Li's outfit. There's not enough Abraxo and Turpentine in all of the Capital Wasteland to clean her cooties off that.

For the record, I think Seagrave is mighty cute in that motorcycle helmet. He's fourth on my list of hot wasteland men :hehe:

If I wanted to play a realistic game id go play arma. Besides I think pa should only really protect from kinetic rounds.

Okay. So I did by reverse pickpocketing a Radiation Suit onto him. He has to remove everything for it. I can't remember how repaired it had to be for him to give up his other clothes for it, but probably not much since he's in regular clothes and it has the big bonus for Radiation Resistance. Then once he's in it I would RPP him what I wanted him to wear and take his other stuff (including the terrible motorcycle helmet away). That of course is the short and easy version. It took lots of time in leaving, coming back, stealthboys, saving and multiple attempts. He isn't especially difficult to RPP though, IIRC. Not like Vance or Simone who make you wish you'd never started to RPP anything onto them in the first place because they are so alert that even if you have a sneak of 100, the CSA and a stealthboy they still make it difficult (oh, and they are asleep).

I always found Brick and Ashur to be the toughest to pickpocket. I swear, I think they both have a set of eyeballs on their asses.

lol! I never tried Brick. I always let her die/kill her for Eugene. You are so much nicer than I am!!! And I don't want what Ashur has so I've never done him either, but Vance, omg, have I've spent so much time trying to pickpocket him. Casdin is nearly impossible as well. I just gave up on him. I've never successfully pickpocketed/RPP'd him although I know it can be done.

Oh, and I would have put Autumn on that list....
