All of the Fallout 4 Armor and How to Get Them
Fallout 4 Power Armor
One of the most entertaining things about Fallout 4 is the inclusion of Power Armor. Now, each of the games has their own version of Power Armor, but Fallout 4’s version allows you to customize each part to your specifications. Need a jetpack? There’s a mod for that. Want to see Vault Boy in your headlamp? There’s a mod for that. Want to be pretty in pink? There’s definitely a mod for that.
There are four types of power armor. T-45, T-51, T-60, X-01, each in varying conditions, with and without a fusion core. The version of power armor that spawns depends on what level you are when you come across it, as well as a game-set algorithm. Some places will spawn only T-45 and T-60, while some will only spawn X0-1. So, here’s all of the Power Armor in Fallout 4, what types, and how to get them.

This set of power armor is the most difficult to get.

Once you've gotten all 35 of the cores, head to the Nuk World Power Plant and head to the very tippy top and activate the Park's power. Head back to the Star Command center and use the terminal to free the power armor. Congratulations!
Bradburton House, X-01

Far Harbor DLC
The Far Harbor DLC is my favorite addition to the Fallout 4 game. Not only are you meeting new characters, hearing a new score of music, and learning new lore, you get a full set of Vim! Power armor.
National Park Visitor’s Center, Vim! T-51 full set
If you fast travel to this location, turn around where you land and head around the bushes. Otherwise head slightly north following the main road. There will be a Vim! Truck with a full set of T-51 power armor inside.

Raider Boss Bilge is in posession of this armor. If you want the frame for this, you'll want to sneak up while he is sleeping and take it/kill him or sneak the fusion core off of the set.
Honorable Mention
In the far eastern part of the map, there is a set of power armor hidden in a cave beneath the waves of Far Harbor. You can't get this armor, but you can see the silhouette outlined in some rocks.
Automatron
Tesla Armor, chest and arms
Head to the Fort Hagen Satelite Array and finish the dungeon, finding Ivy at the end. Now, there's only three piecesof this armor, but together they give a bonus of 15% more damage with energy weapons.
Enjoy your new sets of power armor!
