I have yet to use my power armor 20 hours into the game. I have 11 fusion cores, I guess I can start.
TheEvilDog:
That said, if you have 9 Intelligence, you can gain access to the Nuclear Physicist perks, which besides make radiation weapons do more damage, also makes power cores last longer. The 3 ranks increase power core life by 25%, 50% and 100%.
There are some bonuses for power armour though, especially the mods you unlock later on. First and foremost is the Jetpack, which is basically an extended jump that lasts about 10 seconds. Next are the mods you can add to the legs. If you drop from a height, you can do explosive damage in a radius. Most of the time, it can kill raiders or knock a big chunk off their health.
But if you do come across enemies in power armour, try sneaking up behind them to steal their power cores. They get destroyed if you kill the enemy.
I like power armour, its fantastic for mid-to-endgame, but its something that you do need to prepare for and think about in advance.

I am encountering a very strange bug in my latest play through. I have two suits of power armor, the one you get at Concord, and another partial suit I found exploring. They are both sitting in Sanctuary. For some reason, every time I fast travel back there, they revert to how they were when I first found them. If I make any changes, leave in a power core or repair them, I lose all of that. I'm not sure what's causing this.. It didn't happen on my previous play through. I haven't been able to find any references to it online. And none of the mods I've installed should interact with power armor at all. I'm trying to keep things close to vanilla right now, using pretty much just mods that enhance quality of life... Some UI changes, settler renamer and a couple of (normal) armor reskins. The only mod that might affect it I think is Homemaker - Extended Settlements. But that just adds more craftable/placeable items in settler mode.
This concerns me, since I started this play though with the intention of making more use of power armor. So this bug is kind of a big deal. I need to check my older game and see if the bug is happening there. It might just be some strange corruption in this game. Which would be a pain if I had to restart, I'm about 20 hours or so into it.
Solution found: Whelp, turns out it was a mod I used to clean up the trash piles in Sanctuary. Sanctuary - No Trash and Leaf Piles. I was just going through to see if any of them were showing the problem, and this one says it right there... The oddities of modding, what can you do? It's a shame, it was a nice little mod, but that's a pretty major draw back. So I'll have to suffer a trashed up Sanctuary again.

There is no such thing as pretty in the Fallout universe! It is not allowed!
Neko_Ali:
Brooms exist though! I collect enough of them while travelling. Shovels too. My lazy settlers should make use of them and clean up the place.
