The New BEST XP Farm Strategy in Fallout 76

[@prizmere]

Happy new year everyone, hope you're having a great holiday season! In regards to the topic at hand, if you lack the requirements for this specific farming method, clearing raids normally from start to finish is a decent alternative. I should also add that this was done during the 2X XP event.

[@itsmehere1]

I was thinking it would probably work that way but to get the final boss checkpoint but basically it works almost the same as sharing raid checkpoints in destiny lol.

[@mahanthp4648]

ye, hope they dont change or nerf it.

[@C-Vite]

Ty for explaining the Terror repeat so clearly ❤

[@Klausiancliff89]

Considering the ammount of fluxes and serums you get doing raids and the ammount of blight mushrooms that are around the raid zone, i always take a carnivore serum and a blight soup after that. 50% is not 125, but it is what it is i need the extra carryweight i gain from being carnivore

[@prizmere]

Well said! Carry weight is such a hassle sometimes.

[@ryanhampton2352]

The final boss always crashes for me so don't think I can do this haha

[@bamthebutcher]

I actually have my second ps acc checkpointed on the last boss been doin rhis for a month now

[@thebuddhasofbostonsports4193]

Wow switching out of PA at the end was a CHAD move and switching to a Fourth weapon, pretty slick. On Xbox each one of those moves has a 15% of freezing and crashing the game so prtety risky moves for me. 😂

[@prizmere]

That's rough. I've seen people complaining about crashing a lot on the Ultracite Terror as well, which is very unfortunate.

[@leonard8494]

how do you play both acounts at once? after steam update i can not longer play on one pc is there still way to play both chars on one pc?

[@prizmere]

I assume you used the "set VPROJECT=steammulti" method? In the comments of the same post you'll find a method to use an older Steam version, this is the only way to run 2 accounts on 1 PC as far as I'm aware.

[@DragonCMNDR]

The other way is to get a copy of the game from the Microsoft App Store. Two completely different install folders and game executables. I've run both versions at the same time, on the same computer Alt-Tabbing between them.

Run in a 4 man casual team bloody vampire minigun/auto axe drop shield axe it to half way jump off platform get behind pillar get out of PA with scorch brain, squirrel stew, live and love 8(+5% exp), leader bobblehead, 15 in intelligence +5 from legendary intelligence, unyielding with +2 intelligence on each armor piece with +3 intelligence on your minigun, mothman tome(+5% xp),sleep buff, derby game +2 intelligence, if you remember every 10 mins nuka twist for +2 intelligence, and using berry mentats at the end of you lr kill will last 5 mins and last 3 kills for +5 intelligence. The farm is the first boss of the raid with all i stated and getting out of power armor under 20% hp you will get 110k exp every 2 minutes if you are efficient, in power armor you will get around 81kish. I have 74 intelligence fully buffed.

[@RickJ666ESQ]

Ive been trying to farm the first boss but it's really hard to do solo at lvl 307. Taking the shield out isn't much of a problem but i can't seem to finish it off.

[@DragonCMNDR]

If you don't mind cheesing it, there is currently a glitch where as soon as you get the shield down the first time, run up and die on top of the pedestal where the guardian is... When you respawn, immediately run back down and restart the guardian. This time it will be glitched, and you'll be able to do direct damage to the guardians health while the shield is still up. This time, hide and try to avoid proc-ing Ricochet, and don't aim for the shield module, you want to do as little damage to the shield as possible while only doing core damage to the guardian itself instead. If you never drop the shield this second time, then it never heat cycles, so you can take as long as you need to chip away at the core health. HOWEVER, if you do drop the shield, it will heat cycle like normal, and then the shield will come back like normal and you can't do core damage until you drop it again, so hopefully you did enough damage the first time around to be able to finish it before you run out of doors.

[@RickJ666ESQ]

@DragonCMNDR Oh cool I'll try that. Thanks a million

[@RickJ666ESQ]

@@DragonCMNDR I'm vats aiming but there is only one target, the torso but it still chipping down the shield more than the bot itself

[@nukecorporations]

I tried the serynger Its either not doing anything or almost doing nothing cause with the team i was in about 4 min and 30 sec we cleared the boss and in was mid life at 2 min cause idk why BUT on xbox for my case and the teammate i was with we crashed when we used the serynger on the boss

[@powreful4972]

It works but doesn’t stack anymore

[@oliverogden4999]

@@powreful4972yeah 100%

[@theceoofgeo686]

Works only on ballistic. Everyone is using gat Plasmas or casters so No benefits. And with gauss Mini the difference in dmg is too little.

[@raynehatred2853]

Yeah, nah. All that extra shit you gotta have/do.

[@KillaCyst]

yeah you can probably run the 1st boss 5x in the time it takes to do this, I was getting 42k in a minute without even maximum buffs during double XP this past weekend.

[@raynehatred2853]

@KillaCyst exactly!!

[@christopherestewart]

@@KillaCyst Meanwhile, this guy was getting 100k/min while soling the last boss. 3 players can cut that time in half.

[@KillaCyst]

@@christopherestewart the setup time ain't worth it

[@christopherestewart]

@@KillaCyst Setup is one time. It takes about the same amount of time to get to the last boss as the first, if you have one person suicide and then start the event. Everyone else gets pulled down to the island.

[@orange1770]

Not the best. I’ve been able to kill first boss in 25 seconds and get 107k xp a kill so it’s way better than the snake

[@prizmere]

While EN06 farming certainly is great, Ultracite Terror is better. Factoring in the loading time after each kill will even out the time per kill between the two bosses quite a bit. There's also the possibility to use additional buffs, spamming coffee, getting a full 4-star set and whatnot to decrease the kill time on UT. My run was by no means super fast. For reference, I'm pretty sure I only used Psychotats, Bobblehead: Big Guns, and 50 crit tea (as carnivore - would be boosted with herbivore). It's also possible to stay at less than 20% HP for Nerd Rage to kick in. Just checked on how MrsBlobby did it just out of curiosity, the kill took 1 minute 30 seconds.

[@Blocks311]

Yes but now factor in your time running to the boss and setting up your alt. ENO6 is waaaay better and much much easier to get a good setup.

[@prizmere]

​@@Blocks311 Oh for sure EN06 is nice and easy to farm, not arguing with that. But what is truly the BEST, especially at max efficiency? Sure, the initial alt setup will take a bit of time (0 time if you're just running a regular raid anyway), but you only have to do it once, ever. Otherwise the setup for each repeat UT kill is the same and moving the alt costs you no time, as you can do so during loading screens. Regarding running to the boss, you skip ahead with Gamma Gun. I'd imagine running time is about the same for both bosses, though I haven't timed them. Not my strong suit, but let's crunch some numbers. It takes roughly 30s in total for me to load into the raid + out of the raid. At 3 kills EN06 would slightly pull ahead in XP versus UT, so you'll need to load 3 times for EN06 (30x3=90s) and once for UT (30s). Including kill times EN06 takes (25x3) 75+90=165s, while UT takes (assuming a more efficient kill at 90s) 90+30=120s, if I got that right. This means that EN06 is significantly slower, despite giving slightly more XP for 3 runs. You would need to run to the boss 3 times vs 1 time as well, however much slower that'd make EN06 I'm unsure of. I'll make a grand assumption and say 30s slower in total, just from running. It makes EN06 even slower nonetheless. In theory, doing this in groups would make UT even better assuming the XP isn't shared, as kill time would go down drastically. Can't confirm if that's how it works, though.

[@Skinsuitdemon]

You dont know anit armour will do much? Bruh anti armour does 50% furious does max 45% 💀🤣

[@FabioMuhl-ug9fd]

If you target his eye, AA is useless because his non existant armour. AA only helps on high resistance targets, and even then, you are more often than not better of just stacking more dmg. Even the wiki states this. In his case with the UT Furios would definitely be the better bet.
