Notes[]

  • Each time a new mod is built, the Sole Survivor receives a small number of XP.
  • Armor mods in the "Mods" tab in the Pip-Boy represent those mods that have been removed from armor one has modded. They are available for use on other armor of the same type without crafting them again. These un-used mods can be stored in a workbench, and will be available at the armor workbench.
  • You need to acquire and increase the Armorer perk to mod more advanced armor pieces (i.e. "Sturdy" or "Heavy"). However, you can apply mods made for lesser armor pieces to more advanced pieces of the same material type. For example, You can make a studded leather mod for an ordinary leather chest piece, and then move it to a sturdy or heavy leather chest piece. This allows you to bypass the inability to make mods for those advanced pieces directly.
