Fallout 76 best under armor
No, not like the brand.


Under armor is a feature in Fallout 76 that allows you to wear another set of armor underneath, perhaps more reinforced armor.

Yes, under armor not only looks may just look dope but it also provides a stats boost depending on how it is nodded.

But did you know that are more under armors that will provide vastly different stat boosts for your character?
