You need to lose the Ark Suit for something that will help you fit in better.
You’ll bring the Authority sniffing around if someone reports you and you don’t want that. Go see Coffer, the vendor in town. I’ll send word to have some outfits ready for you.
Come back and see me once you blend in a bit more.
Provided Equipment: None
Reward: None
New Objective: Find the Outfitter’s
Before you get too comfortable in Wellspring, Mayor Clayton suggests finding a change of clothes. Your Ark Suit makes you stick out, potentially drawing attention from the Authority—nobody wants that. Once you’re finished speaking with the Mayor, exit his office and return to the street. At the Second Chance Bar, hang a left and pass through a short tunnel. As you exit the tunnel, turn to the left to spot Coffer’s Outfitter shop. Ginny, a young woman, is seated next to a soda vending machine outside. She’s surprised to see someone in an Ark Suit. She warns you to be careful—Ark dwellers fetch big rewards from the Authority. But fortunately for you, she hates the Authority more than she needs money. Now head inside and find yourself a new outfit.
New Objective: Select your new armor
Coffer, the proprietor of the shop, is seated behind a counter. He’s a peculiar man wearing an odd hat. Like Halek, Coffer offers a variety of supplies, ingredients, and ammo in his shop. But before you buy anything from him, you must choose your armor. This is a very important decision that can greatly impact the rest of the campaign. You have three armor options to choose from, each with its own perk. The Wastelander option gives you a slight discount when purchasing non-vehicle items in shops. Roughneck armor increases the amount of damage you can take before dying. The Fabricator armor enhances some objects that you build. Your decision here largely depends on your style of play. If you don’t plan on scouring the Wasteland for tons of junk to sell, the Wastelander option might be a good choice. If you’re playing the game on an advanced difficulty level, the Roughneck armor is always a good choice. Maybe you just want to enhance items that you build. In that case, choose the Fabricator option. Don’t take your armor decision lightly. The armor you choose now is the armor you wear for the remainder of the campaign, so consider saving the game prior to making this decision. You may want to come back and try out different armors.

New Objective: Return to Mayor Clayton
Once you’ve chosen your armor, head back to Mayor Clayton’s office to show off your new threads. Regardless of which armor you’ve picked, Mayor Clayton is relieved to see you in anything other than that Ark Suit. But he’s not quite ready to let you run free in his town. . .
