Under The Radar Changes Coming To Fallout 76

[@wiggle_plays]

Looks like I missed a recent patch note that increased the weapon drop chance from 20% to 35%. That would explain why I was finding them so often.

[@seanh884]

That extra info when scrapping is great.

[@ianhorn5466]

I'll be able to scrap the lists I've been keeping, and more importantly won't have to check each item against them.

[@pinpetos]

You'll be able to move your items to other characters as well if you want them to get a chance of learning the plans. No need to keep lists for each character ❤

[@nerviistories]

Yeah, As far as I know 3 Luck is just 3 luck, But Faster crit recharge is equal to 10 luck..So there is A big difference:)

[@Saintbow]

If you're going sorry just for faster crit recharge,b sure then go for it. But since a lot of perks are being reworked to depend on your Luck number, then it's no longer viable just to go for the crit recharge for complete builds.

[@trentenfolland3982]

@@Saintbowcan’t wait to do the math to find the optimal combination of the vats effecting perks/ legendaries. Hopefully unyielding isn’t necessary Im tryna run chameleons PA

[@SmibbleGiddeon-dv5ex]

I'm excited about the added tankiness to alot of things. Probably gonna go unyielding limbs and tankiness for the rest ​@@trentenfolland3982

[@NeatWolf]

And after 25 (or was it 20?) it gets even worse - IMO a good "decent" value for a ⭐⭐⭐effect would be +4 or even +5 on a weapon. If the value doesn't make you twitch and do some math - then it's a no brainer not to take it.

[@tombanes]

I did not know about the last mod availability feature that was already in the game . Thanks so much.

[@Binidj]

Loving these changes, and really grateful that you dug them out for us. Also, I did _not_ know about being able to see my missing mods, that's super useful, thanks.

[@chaotic_tier-0029]

The scrap menu changes will help a lot when you're trying to learn all the Legendary effects. No second guessing or having to back out to check the crafting menus. Thank Atom. Now we need the camp building menu to get a sort function

[@HectorCornejo-r1g]

Honestly I feel bad for the lower level characters in this sense. Hopefully they will figure out a way to balance that out.

[@lucifero_il_gatto]

Has anyone else gotten this bug, it plays the sound for unlocking a new mod but it doesn’t show on the inventory unless I reload the game, server hopping doesn’t fix it, and sometimes it doesn’t play the sound but when I check on the tinker’s bench they are craftable. Also what is a good price for the good roles, I have the heavy hitter, 90%w and aristocrat at 5000-9000 caps and they don’t sell at all

[@wiggle_plays]

Sounds like the notification bug. You stop getting onscreen notifications for things like event rewards and mod unlocks. Restarting the game should fix it.

[@Gnometruther]

I don't know why but I'm always impressed when I see genuine quality of life improvements like being able to see what you can get/learn when scrapping legendaries

[@scottshep8978]

Some good quality of life updates. They should hype these things more.

[@hughejass9461]

The new scrap menu will be very beneficial, especially for newer players. Thanks for the video and take care.

[@syberfang7890]

That is a large amount of scrap from ONE encounter. I am hoping we could get more storage for non-fallout 1st players to compensate.

[@Andrew_Li_O]

That's really smart idea from new EA manager Bethesda hired. People will regret dropping resources as before, in order to save it you have to buy fo 1-st. I still think scrap box should be available for free, doubt it will ever happen

[@ChipperParrot-OG]

That goes against the business model of the game.

[@zvijer2960]

Yep, they are pretending to do you a favor, all the while they have a hidden ​agenda to push you towards FO1st. @@Andrew_Li_O

[@steventurtscher7977]

buy it for 1 month... fill the box up and after it enjoy 🙂

[@damnsurfer522]

luck affects perk cards as well so there is more to think about then just crit meter

[@wiggle_plays]

Yep. It was kind of a dumb oversight on my part not to mention that.

[@neethsuesvoldar3265]

Hopefully the junk dropping more often doesn't mess with the caps I make from selling raw materials I spend a lot of time grabbing junk I know where most everything spawns at by heart i sell junk for low caps... 30k lead scrap to sum up what i got on hand at anytime.

[@DahliaTheHologram]

Great info! Thanks, Wiggle!

[@George-ge8rd]

So how is that going to impact "Eviction Notice". I go to that for the XP but mostly for the ungodly number of legendary's. Does this mean we will get 80% fewer Legendary items? If so that will really reduce the fun/benefit of that event.

[@wiggle_plays]

Should have no effect on legendary drops.

[@rod2dodge855]

You just wont be getting 15 mini guns

[@ignaciolovato5400]

I don't like this change a lot because i sell the gunt for easy caps, but i think its ok because you can farm the items for daily and weekly missions🤔🤔🤔. It's a trade off and you can make bunk of junk for sell

[@giftedcracker]

Are you saying if we don't know all the regular mods you can learn from scrapping it lowers your chances of learning the legendary mod?

[@wiggle_plays]

Yes.

[@rod2dodge855]

Interesting

[@ryanloder3126]

They should have the percentage chance to learn each legendary effect.

[@ericbowser9263]

So, does that mean upscaled dropped weapons will do more damage?

[@wiggle_plays]

Upscaled weapons don't drop. You'll get something appropriate to your level up to 50.

[@ericbowser9263]

@wiggle_plays got it, thanks!!

[@jeremyburks7882]

I thought I read or watched a video somewhere that the loot changes had been reversed?

[@Captain_Char]

can't say i care about the mobs dropping junk, im scrapping their worthless weapons anyways

[@stevemartin7362]

I love small changes! lol

[@c0gnus]

Some folks on reddit claim that they learned both weapon mod and legendary mod from scrapping one weapon

[@wiggle_plays]

🤷‍♂

[@SToNeOwNz]

they are separate odds.

[@zvijer2960]

On 2 occasions I got a leg box mod and learned the leg plan. I'm not sure if I've ever unlocked a regular mod and leg mod, but I'm sure you can, especially hearing about it on reddit.

[@VECNA539]

This means legendary mobs wont drop guarantee wep or armor 😱??

[@wiggle_plays]

Legendary drops are unaffected.

[@wolfredbeard5871]

Just what I need , more caps 😫

[@rickx723]

Always thank you 🥂

[@heyjojacobi8484]

Thank you 👍

[@Phillykid9031]

Am I crazy when did they add explosive energy weapons back in?

[@fivenotewonder]

Don’t get too hyped they’ve been completely rebalanced and are a flat 20% damage boost, and any multi shot weapons, such as the once op gat plas with beam splitter work totally different now, the 20% damage is split between projectiles, furthermore, some explosive weapons like the old legacy flamers simply don’t work at all. But, gauss weapons are pretty good with explosive on second star as it calculates as 35% damage so they are great. IIRC the energy explosives were reintroduced with the legendary crafting revamped system a season or two ago. You know now you can literally make your own god rolls after all these years :)

[@Phillykid9031]

@fivenotewonder I just now learned about this i stopped playing pretty much when the legacies were butchered. Such a great addition!

[@CodeWarrior01]

well done, thanks

[@dereksnelling3005]

Yay, no more mod plan spreadsheets.

[@myguyTrevorSabo]

What will I do with my spreadsheets 😢 😂

[@himynamelscolin]

I’m overencumbered enough as it is 😂 my hoarding will not be able to withstand such a foe

[@SmibbleGiddeon-dv5ex]

Yess bro. I'm carrying more storage on me with reduction perks than my entire camp 😂.

[@antares-the-one]

nerfed the amount of weapons i used to sell at vendors... Nothing great

[@grimm_tnt_1509]

Cant wait for my stash to be full of junk every 20 minutes

[@dpellek74]

Fallout 1st.

[@grimm_tnt_1509]

@dpellek74 not everyone has money to spend an extra 12$ a month for fallout 1st bud

[@yttrxstein4192]

Its impossible to enjoy the full content of this game without power armor and a couple of 3 star legendary heavy auto weapons, which is fallout 76's biggest balance issue-- and it has absolutely no chance of being fixed, ever. (we call this the World of Warcraft syndrome). A secondary issue is the nature of the grind-- literal months to go from zero to a jetpack that doesn't require power armor is ridiculous. Thirdly and perhaps most irritatingly for me, the bow/compound bow/crossbow may as well not be in the game at all- for two reasons. 1. even with 3 star legendary and every bow skill maxed and loaded, its damage is still ridiculously low and 2. VATS lies-- an 80% on a limb is really more like a 20%, so even at close range most arrows/bolts miss. This is to say nothing of the endless quest bugs that infect just about everything in the skyline valley expansion. Bethesda is lazy, out of touch, and apathetic. Its too bad, this really had a chance of being the best mmo ever built.

[@DoctaFknJay]

Lol, so it guess it was a great time to stop paying for 1st, as I won't be playing anymore and won't need to worry about all the shit!
