I keep taking out raiders wearing power armour. I can take all the appendages off them but how do I rescue the frame itself to claim the armour as mine? Popping in a fusion core didn't seem to do it...
I sneak to the raider and steal their fusion core. It forces them out of the frame. That's how I do it.
I know one can also target the fusion core in VATS, so maybe destroying it also forces the user out of the frame? I have never tried it though, I'll do it next time I meet an enemy in a PA

How does one go about farming certain legendary weapons and armor?
The game saves before and after you enter a location. Legendary enemies are spawned upon entering a location. Their item type is determined at the time they spawn. The item's legendary power is selected afterwards.
On the very few occasions I did some "farming" (twice, a gamma gun and a gauss rifle and just because the legendary mobs took 10s to kill after reload ), I did it like this:
1) noticed a legendary enemy spawned just after I entered a location (I get two saves - before and after entering)
2) I kill the enemy, see if they have the item type I like
3) if yes, I check if the legendary power is the one I want
4) wrong legendary power - I reload the autosave after I enter the location (mobs are spawned the same way, their items too, legendary powers are rerolled - this is only true for the automatic save after entering a location)
5) if the item is not of the type I'm looking for, I load the save before I enter the location and repeat
The problem is, legendary mobs only have a chance to spawn. So sometimes you'll need to reload your "before entering" save multiple times to get the legendary to spawn again after entering again (and then hope for the item you want). Once you get your item type to roll, just keep reloading the save after you entered to reroll and get the legendary power on it you want.
I got lucky with the gauss rifle... it spawned on a mob that was there just after I entered a location (took me literally 10s each "after entering" reload to kill the mob). It still took me like 30-40 reloads to roll a two-shot power on the gauss rifle. The gun is totally OP
🙂 It's fun to use though.
Honestly, unless it's a really quick reload situation, I wouldn't bother and just play the game. If you want a nice legendary gauss rifle, Ronnie Shaw in The Castle sells one (The Last Minute - 50% more limb damage) after you play the Minuteman storyline a bit (after she opens the armory for you and you can start building artillery in your settlements).
Also, I need more concrete
🙁 I keep using it so much when building stuff - it's so much fun :awe: The wooden floors with the concrete block under them are so much fun to use
