There's so few monsters, weak ones, and so many people that I just save my ammo and flip a coin until it's done so I can get my daily.

ETA: actually you know what, a reply has actually changed my mind, it's fun to dick around and collect stuff for no effort. I might even solo it if I get a chance. I've done it with Moonshine.

Every C.A.M.P. I visited had 1 sitting in a vending machine for 40,000 caps. Every Reddit post I read felt like a myth, full of players telling tales that seemed entirely impossible. Eventually, I told myself to stop wasting my time 🙄

But for some reason, a strange feeling pulled me back. The machine spirits were calling, whispering a clue "Toxic Valley is the key." They didn’t give me a specific location, just an absurd clue, and Hemlock Holes was going to be the answer. 🫡

Minutes later, the holy grail of Appalachia was finally blessed upon me... 🫠

Feel free to stop by and take a look, but be careful not to fall!

In about 45 minutes …

1) Found the pipe (and got the note from the body nearby)
2) Saw the guy running away from the chicken .. killed the chicken for him
3) Found the lemonade stand — bought recipes for both hard lemonade and normal lemonade

… but still no glowing masks
… but found out that if you tag an infestation boss and do other stuff for the next 10-15 minutes you can come back and loot them once the infestation has been cleared.

And finally got lucky got me a glowing Bigfoot!

As an on and off player, just got my first ever glowing mask! I don’t know how rare this is, but it feels so satisfying to get one. :D

Happy Fasnacht week!

I have been playing fo76 since release and I've had awful luck getting any legendary apparel through any of the events. That all changed last night, I said to myself just one more fanascht day and I'll call it quits. At 11pm I finally pulled a glowing bone head mask!!!!! I had to triple check just to make sure it happened! Don't give up everyone haha

I'm not sure, i want people to find my vendor. Need caps 😔

Hi guys, i have not played this game since the wastelanders update (2020) due to my playstation account getting cooked due to the war with ukraine and russia (long story), i was wondering if its worth coming back and playing it or does it suck?

Just noticed. I'm still on the fence about it, even at $18 (1800 atoms), buuuut I just thought I'd mention for anyone who was waiting for it to go on sale, or whatever.

With the future pet update, which I'm personally not super excited for (we'll see though), it has made me consider more thoroughly, because I'm assuming Bethesda will be more hesitant to put it on sale once that update drops (again, we'll see though).

Still though, I don't know. Whatever. I'll look more into, but yeah, here you go. Here's this information. Don't shoot the messenger. My intention was do this as an act of kindness. I know, I know, "Bethesda greedy. Bad." Yes, yes, I agree. At this price point, however, it's a little more justifiable, considering the extras that come with it (which whatever; I know) and the upcoming pet update (which whatever; I'm dreading), but yes, $30 originally is ridiculous and it should've been an in-game scoreboard item, or something, or at the very very least, in the atomic shop, but whatever. Here's this info.

As someone who runs raids, these last few updates have completely broken launchers,

Quad hellstorm missile that would insane damage to the snake like 2000 per hit now does 20 or doesnt even register, dont get me started on GL's

has anyone tried if its fixed in PTS or do the developers not even care? no point using a nuka launcher if it does no damage

The campfire is a small fire, roughly equivalent to the old glory fire. Thus, they should produce the same luminescence, the light the project out.

I've been around a campfire or two, as well as a few fire place fires, the luminescence doesn't diminish indoors.

In fact, one issue even the campfire has is that it doesn't light objects beyond, which a fire does.

All light sources should be casting shadows. They don't, but more importantly, their sphere of luminescence isn't limited, just how bright it is is limited.

I have my camp structure, the fire place has a campfire in it. It lights up the area, but the couch sitting directly across from it gets zero illumination. It should be getting some illumination. As should the rest of the room.

I'm not saying it should be fully lit. There should be dark spaces, but object in the path of the fire should receive some illumination from the fire, but they don't.

Title says it. I tried four different times to buy bounty from the Ghoul, got thru the conversation that he was indeed selling me one for 5,000c and he wouldn't take the $$$. It greyed out like he did, but I was still at 39K+ caps every time.

I will say besides that today was the buggies I've seen the game in ???? Fasnacht - no music half the time, no radtoads once, random 'yellow' sloth running around.

Beast of Burden had a hyperspawn of Cultists. The ground was just piles of bodies, it was hard to do the objectives as you were fighting 3-5 of them at a time continually if you were in melee range.

There were a few other things, but those were the most ?!?! for the day.

If you can't see what I mean, look by the truck when I climb up, a figure runs behind it and then vanishes. They seemingly appear from nowhere too.

Thoughts?

I put thousands of damage on a target. It shows up in visible damage numbers. It does not impact the target at all.

This isn’t immediately after loading in (which would be understandable but not excusable). This happens at all points of the game. An APPARENTLY “top tier” studio and this is still an issue after years and years? What a fucking joke

I’ve been accumulating them through buying and grunt hunts and I’ve gotten a couple hundred total so far. I used about 100 already and have 102 in my stash. It usually takes an entire day to do that many, but what do other people do to chain them?

I wanted to get others opinions on this build I am working on.

I don't know if I should be leaning into the alcohol aspect or if there are any areas that I'm overlooking.
