Description:
The Remnants power armor returns to Fallout 4! Also known as Advanced Power Armor Mk. I, it was the standard issue power armor given to Enclave troopers on the west coast. It is also the successor of the X-01 armor, which was a pre-war prototype developed by the Enclave and never saw mass production.

Obtaining the Armor:
In order to obtain the armor, you have to complete a short Creation Club-style quest. When you reach level 30, head to the Dugout Inn in Diamond City and pick up the new note by the "WANTED" poster.
The quest will direct you to the southwestern edge of the Glowing Sea, near Vault 95. You will find the NPC in that area. Make sure to pick up his holotape after you kill him.
Note: He is VERY strong, be prepared.Alternatively you could spawn the armor with the console or an item browser.

They require rank 4 of the Science perk to craft. Each Tesla armor piece adds +5 to Damage and Radiation resistance, totaling +30 with all pieces equipped.
Note on visual bugs regarding the Tesla armor: During the testing process I determined that the majority of the bugs with the Tesla armor are due to vanilla bugs, and fixing them is outside the scope of this mod. To fix any visual iss
