Brain Bombs are the KEY to Fallout 76 Success!

[@travisholt7561]

The scout collectron collects them pretty often. Been stacking up for next season

[@GoldenGek]

Yes, at the time I wrote this, that collectron had only just come out so hadn't really been able to test. But yeah it does seem to collect a fair amount!

[@Phillmagroin]

Dear God I'm merely 1:04 into the vid and I'm sweating profusely 😂 I've sold hundreds upon hundreds of surger bombs to r.r vendor lol!! Although I'm sure a good number of them were the clean ones it still hurts and is a wound that will never heal!!

[@GoldenGek]

haha well dw the farming route for the fixed spawns really doesn't take long to do and you'll be able to grab plenty :-)

[@FranktheLab]

Me Too!!

[@TheGreatScott]

Great stuff. I'd recommend adding to your title as a suffix or bracketed sub title, or clipping out and posting a standalone video for your Sugar Bomb route, as it is excellent and imho the true value to this video.

[@GoldenGek]

Thank you for such a lovely comment and really glad you liked the video. I will look at changing the title first and then edit a video for just the Sugar Bombs Farming routes 🙂Thanks again really appreciate that.

[@CameronM47]

Broiled scorchbeast brains are the same for carnivores, plus you get all better benefits from being a carnivore, like all the carry weight and strength boosts from various other meats.

[@GoldenGek]

That is true, both ways are pretty much the same effort to make etc so I guess it's just really about preference. Good point about the carry weight increases though 👍

[@ConettaF]

Carnivore here... never new about the sugar bombs rarity. How many of these I've just sold to bots! I'm going to put in my vendor from now on. What's a nice price point. I don't sell items at high value to rip players off but to help.

[@VeeCyberpunk]

@@ConettaF there is a factory that produces sugar bombs in game... 😉

[@GoldenGek]

@VeeCyberpunk yes there is but unfortunately they are not the ones you need and are the perfect version and not the irradiated ones you need for brain bombs 🫡👍

[@Lordoftheapes79]

I sell them for 200 caps each all the time.

[@Martyn_Lawson]

Great guide. But as a relatively new player. i have to be quick on the pause to see on the map where you are. maybe leave up locations a couple secs? just a thought

[@GoldenGek]

Thank you for the kind comment. I was going to add a mini map in the top left but unfortunately just ran out of time to get the video done and out. Annoyingly this type of video takes a long time to make and I just ran out of time on this one.

[@Martyn_Lawson]

@@GoldenGek No worries. This is my new SB route now and I know where the places are so it's all good haha. I can only imagine the difficulties of making videos like this so I do appreciate the effort. It's a huge help to that cereal goodness haha

[@david-mccoy1978]

Awesome Thanks Bro!

[@nukaknights]

Thanks for the mention 👌

[@GoldenGek]

No problem dude thanks for all your amazing work!!

[@reburgcam]

the Scout master collectron thats free in the current Scoreboard gives rad sugarbombs. just level up and get it free. no need to buy the holiday one in the atom shop

[@GoldenGek]

Yes you are correct, I just gave the option for people who watch the video after the current season has finished 👍

[@Lordoftheapes79]

Right. But people will still be watching the video after the season ends.

[@babbayagga4330]

Moss town shack in the bathtub can have from 1 to 5 its a daily stop for me have over 200 packs

[@GoldenGek]

Yes, I included that in the farming run for the fixed spawns 👍

[@LegendaryWarChicken]

There should be an option to convert clean sugarbombs into irradiated ones.

[@GoldenGek]

🤔 I guess just leave them out in the sun lol 😆 I'd prefer people watched my farming guide hahaha 😜

[@Lordoftheapes79]

As a carnivore, I don't need these, but people will pay absurd amounts of caps for these boxes of sugary goodness.

[@GoldenGek]

Haha yes they will!! Lol

[@seanpelletier]

I'm glad the scout master collect them

[@dgisgd]

where can you get that freezer ?

[@GoldenGek]

Sorry I missed your comment. You can get the freezer from mortimer at the crater for 1250 gold bullion 👍

[@Paul-ng4jx]

Sugar bombs are like one of the easiest things to find anywhere in the game practically every house you go in has sugar bonds in it but then again I server hop so I get like a ton of these things just in the 20 minutes time that I play the game

[@david-mccoy1978]

It has to be irradiated or it doesn’t work

[@GoldenGek]

that is true but you need the irradiated sugar bombs to make the brain bombs and there are only so many fixed spawns for these on the map. You also need 3 packets of irradiated sugarbombs to make one brain bomb so you'll need to collect quite a lot anyway

[@GoldenGek]

yep that is correct :-)

[@DasboardTVDE]

does brainbomb stack with brain fungus soup ?

[@GoldenGek]

no it doesn't as both of these give an intelligence buff. Use Brain bombs with cranberry relish for the ultimate herbovore xp gain as the brain bombs give the intelligence boost (ultimately giving you more xp for enemy kills) and the cranberry relish gives the xp boost which is appllied for everything.

[@tylermckillop2339]

Is there a Carnivore alternative?

[@GoldenGek]

Lol I haven't finished that guide yet. There are carnivore alternatives, but I think herbivore tops the intelligence gain

[@ChrispyChris_]

There's one with a scorchbeast brain and squirrel stew but overall i think herbivore is the better choice

[@AsharRaasa]

carnivoire have buffs with exactly the same stats when used with backwoodsman 6 mag, 11.25 int and 37.5% xp boost from stew, and i find easier to get, since yoru always killing stuff for getting meat

[@GoldenGek]

@AsharRaasa awesome and thanks as I'm still in the process of writing that video! 🙂

[@DasboardTVDE]

@@GoldenGek does brainbombs stack with brain fungus soup ?

[@MrMorp76]

Mmm, Tasty Sugarbombs

[@BumbleDoom]

Carnivore, i usually make sweet rolls >.> At least i collect them at all. 😅

[@outlander1321]

Wish there was cannibal brains

[@Lordoftheapes79]

Why? We can get the same bonuses from scorchbeast brains and tasty squirrel stew. The brains might be a bit of a challenge to farm, but TSS is crazy easy to make compared to BB. Especially during Fasnacht and meat week.

[@GoldenGek]

@Lordoftheapes79 ah but only if you're a carnivore build! 😜👍

[@Lordoftheapes79]

@@GoldenGek well, yes. But if you want "cannibal brains" I'm going to assume you're a cannibal. 😝

[@GoldenGek]

Lol true .....

[@outlander1321]

He’s figured it out fellas … time to eat!

[@NviGWarren]

I've been eating them!!!😂😂😂❤

[@GoldenGek]

🤣 well you can eat the perfect ones as they aren't used for anything 👍

[@proudofyourboy352]

Packet? It's a box of cereal

[@GoldenGek]

A box of cereal is often referred to in the UK as a packet of cereal, so this is just a regional translation. I'm from the UK so may say things slightly different that's all 👍

[@cloudgaming3043]

I use cranberry relish 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@GoldenGek]

You can use brain bombs in combination with cranberry relish for even more xp as cranberry relish gives an xp gain, whereas brain bombs gives an intelligence gain so doesn't cancel the other out. 🤩

[@joaovasco3059]

​@@GoldenGekits what I do, unless I cant make Brain bombs, then I use Brain fungus soup at the same time as relish

[@GoldenGek]

@@joaovasco3059 yeah same as I always have wayyyyy too much brain fungus as just running down the tunnel at Quarry x3 fast travel gets so many with the green thumb perk!
