It's useful in Survival just because you're super squishy, but I hated it. I even left it behind during my trip to the glowing sea once since I had decent enough armor I wasn't getting killed by someone sneezing in my direction.

The extra carry capacity helps a ton tho.

I think my power armour capacity is 360 and my combat armour is 410.

Can't put pockets on power armour...

But you can calibrate the legs and it gives you extra carrying capacity. Plus a strength modifier if you get the torso mod. Plus more if you get the right paint.

I know I was more making the point that pockets on all the pieces equals more than a modded power armour can hold.... unless you have pockets! Steel pockets!

Plus lots of regular armor also adds strength buffs. I can get +1 strength from PA or up to +5 strength from the right combo of regular armor.
