If you helped Hardin become Elder, complete the Tend to Your Business quest.

When this is completed you will then receive Power Armor Training. Tell him you wish to join the Brotherhood of Steel and this will begin the Eyesight to the Blind quest.

If McNamara remains Elder, wait 24 hours outside of the bunker for the lockdown to be lifted, then talk to him.

After completing the quest Still in the Dark return to either Nolan McNamara or Edgar Hardin, depending on who is now Elder.

There are two ways of obtaining this training. Without this perk, any power armor found cannot be equipped, with the exception of NCR salvaged power armor.

You automatically gain this perk when you finish the Anchorage Reclamation simulation in the Operation: Anchorage add-on.Īs in Fallout 3, this perk allows one to utilize power armor.

If you do not ask for training on your own, you will get it automatically at the end of The American Dream when you become an honorary member of Lyons' Pride, however these options appear very late in the game. Once that's done, you may use any kind of power armor, including the Enclave and the Outcast variants. There is no charge or other requirement for training - the screen simply fades to black as Gunny begins teaching you.

After gaining permission from Elder Lyons, speak to Paladin Gunny in the A-Ring of the Citadel.

Prior to this perk, equipping power armor was impossible. This perk allows one to use any kind of power armor in the game.
