This is a balance mod for power armor. Below are the changes and the reasoning behind it.

Changes :

All power armor defensive values were halved, both basic and attachments.
Power armor durability was increased 50 %.
Carry weight leg attachments were halved as well, from 50 to 25 lbs.

Reasoning :

This game is too easy in power armor. I've tried and tested it on survival. By halving the power armor stats, a fully upgraded power armor still has over twice the defensive value than a fully upgraded standard armor. Pretty much, even with 800 - 900 defensive value instead of 1700, you will still want to walk around in your favorite metal suit. It is a better solution that simply increasing the damage done by enemies in my opinion, because that screws the power armor-less folk. This mod is my first one, but don't worry, nothing complicated but changing simple values, so it won't bug. It might conflict with another mod if it also changes the same parameters, so read the changes of every mod you install.

This is my first of many mods aimed at balancing this game and making it more interesting, and I hope you will enjoy it. I grant anyone and everyone the right to take my mod and copy it in their mods if they so wish.
