Metal armor (Fallout 2)

Metal armor is a suit of armor in Fallout 2.

Gameplay attributes
A mid-tier armor that's intended as a stepping stone between leather armor and combat armor, metal armor is an entirely optional upgrade, given that its better resistances and thresholds are offset by the much lower armor class. However, it has very high energy weapon resistances, only bested by power and Tesla armors.

Variants

 * MKII metal armor: A more finely constructed variant, offering better protection.

Locations

 * Vault 8: Inside a locker on level 2 (center living quarters).
