Metal armor and metal helmet is a piece of armor in Fallout 3.
Characteristics[]
Found throughout the Capital Wasteland, this armor is a series of metal sections riveted into leather. The armor appears to be taken from a variety of scrap metal pieces; these pieces cover the wearers chest, legs, hips, arms and shoulders. The shoulder plates have metal spikes welded onto them. The metal helmet's looks like a white closed-faced, armor-plated motorcycle helmet for males and like a metallic, open-faced, topless (showing hair) armor-plated helmet for females.
The armor is exceptionally heavy and weighs 30 pounds, but provides a great Damage Resistance of 35. The weight of the armor reduces the wearers Agility by 1. The helmet provides a Damage Resistance of 5 and weighs three pounds.
