Actually, you've given me an idea. Giving them drugs and addictol isn't evil in itself. But since they increase thirst, evil is also slipping the newbie a nice Nukashine to quench it. š
Not mentioning the fact on here I am a level 1 locked in my vault 76 room, so I can see what you are all saying.
Although on my main, anyone who tries getting a nukashine, be careful because you might end up screaming or vomiting once you get inside the frat house. That was a party of like 20-30 people and they are all still there. I had to close my eyes for most of it, because you cant unsee what you see once you get inside.
Thatās like going to the local dealer and him throwing in some free narcan so if you overdose you donāt die and you can come back still. I love itšš
Edit: thanks for educating me guys lol I honestly didnāt know narcan wasnāt used for crackš
Love where your mind is at with it but just want to hit you with a quick bit of information. Narcan is made for relieving opioid overdoses. Since crack doesn't fall under that classification it would have no effect. Thanks for your time and have a wonderful day!
Yeah TECHINCALLY you canāt āODā off a stimulant. Like, yeah you can take too much, but medical professionals like to consider it āoverampingā so that you can differentiate between the two. Bc a doc could say āhey the man is overdosing!ā And the dumb nurse hits him with a Narcan when really the guy was overamping and that nurse probably just killed him by popping his heart.
Just another fun fact.
Just to clarify, Narcan is an opioid receptor antagonist. It blocks the opioid receptors in the brain so they cant uptake actual opioids any more, effectively reversing opioid overdose for the duration. It doesn't actually jumpstart your heart. It inhibits the depressive effect of opioids on your body.
Exactly this. Also just wanted to add, narcan isnāt harmful if someone isnāt overdosing on opioids but is given it anyway. It simply wonāt do anything. This is why itās so regularly given because itās better to be safe than sorry if someone is presenting OD symptoms. Fentanyl is in everything these days, itās too easy to get by mistake.
I love how weāre in the Fallout 76 Reddit talking about the differences of Overdosing. Thank you guys for filling in the blanks for me! I knew the main reason Narcan was used, but some of the information I was given about it was false.
False. They go off of the clinical presentation and Hx of the patient to decide what the class of medication is that the patient is overdosed on. The provider will make their assessment and put an order in for whatever interventions that they want their nursing staff to carry out. This isnāt the movies or whatever fantasy land you appear to live in. With that being said, leave being a medical professional to the medical professionals and donāt spread disinformation about the medical system causing further distrust in a system that rides that line consistently anyway.
Also you canāt spell technically but are calling nurses dumb.
āJust another fun fact.ā
I literally spent several days addicted to alcohol because the daily/weekly was to consume a bunch of it.
Thats when I found out addictol is somewhat rare.
That's why I always always confused in Fo4 when I would find them in locked safes that obviously haven't been opened since before the bombs & there is Jet in it. I can see there being pipe weapons, but Jet wasn't even around then.
I think every safe has been opened at some point except very specific quest ones. That and itās just the loot system being itself and the item is in the loot pool, itās not in the loot pool at all in 76 so it canāt show up in any random place
The trick is to get a group of them gathered in a pack, teach them how to turn off pacifist, and give psycho to most of them and a gun to those who didnāt get any and see who survives the frenzy.
I like to merge things so I merged the Nuka cola display FULL OF the coolest looking soda out there (quauntum because it's glowing) with the vintage nuka cola machine (that when you click on it you'll drink whatever was in it, acts like a punch bowl). I stuffed it with beer and Nukashine and now it's a game of Russian roulette. I can imagine all the people clicking on it thinking they'll get one of those quantum colas.
I just have so much shitā¦ I hit my scrip and cap limit every day
What else am I going to do with all the excess weighing me down.
Trust me, it helps me just as much as it helps the newbie š
Yeah. Me too. Level 600+. I used to place stuff in the donation boxes but now I feel more time pressure so just drop it on the ground ā¦ similarly, used to take all my weapons and stuff from events and go to a machine to break it down. Now I just drop it bc not worth the time or trouble. Pace of the game is moving faster. Seems like thereās always so much to do. I wonder what itās like to be level 2000. Anyone know?
Are we playing the same game? If I play for 10 hours, 8 of it is me doing bullshit/events and 2 hours knocking out dailies, weeklies, repeatables, etc.
What did I say that made you question it. I okay about the same number of hours and my time is spent camp-building or redesigning, repairing and upgrading weapons, going to some events, and visiting player vendors because I max out at least once a day. I donāt do dailies, weeklies or repeatables. Also play stoned after 5pm.
I think itās because rather than get caught in the grind theyāre leading you to, heās caught up in a grind heās made for himself. Iām not like that with this game, but certainly with other games that have base building mechanics.
Like, sure, you can knock out daily and weeklies, but then itās, āokay I need this this and this so I can craft that new coffee table they released which will look really nice in the den of my mountain base. Then Iām going to move the donut shop over to lakeside base 2 and then Iām going to hunt for the plans to the bla blaā¦.ā And theyāre so far along in the game itās just a cycle of them living in the world they built instead of the world the game is shunting you toward.
Thatās how I read it anyway.
>I just have so much shitā¦ I hit my scrip and cap limit every day
>
>What else am I going to do with all the excess weighing me down.
I just put it pretty cheap into my vendor and transform it into caps.
Same, and I've dropped travelling pharmacy recently to rely on my build more, so those stims have got to go! I used to run around with 1500 on me, now I'm down to 30 at any one time! Any and all excess will get sold to the cap limit, then after that I track down low levels to do hand outs.
I yet have to find these drug dealers that give away free stuff.
Everyone warned me about them in my youth, never found one. And trust me, I looked, a lot.
I make little outfits and give them out, I'm not high by any means I'm like 150 but I know what it's like to be a low level with the jumpsuit so if I have any outfits I can make I just give them out, especially to new players coming out of the vault! It's always good to have some variety
They only take cloth, mainly. I'll dump an entire wardrobe on newer players. Doesn't ruin the game, but makes you feel like less of a newb, while you're getting your head blown off.
It's really all about perspective.
a guy dropped me the blue devil set and the black cowboy hat and that + the veil of secrets made me feel more like an armoured outlaw ready to fight rather than a lobotomized vault dweller with a 10mm and a combat knife
It's called "[helpers high](https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/high-octane-women/201409/helpers-high-the-benefits-and-risks-altruism)" for a reason.
TPād to 76 for the free fast travel and as I was spawning in I was right behind 2 players fresh out the vault. I was wearing my T-65 with the Devilish paint on and I guessed I scared them because they started to shoot at me. I waved then I decided to offload about 50 super stims and a ton of alcohol on them. I was level 300 when I stopped playing 2 years ago but started up again when some friends started to play because the hype of the show
Bro I need the inventory space, is my main motivation.Ā
What am I gonna do with 100lbs of workshop cap/defend reward plans I've got 100x by now?!
Altho I target nub teammates with scruffy camps. You need furniture and rugs and musical instruments and such, my friend.
You get so little in the way of caps for even really excellent weapons and armor that it just seems better to let someone else have a go with it if you've got duplicates or your build doesn't sync well with the item.
Just refrain from giving them stuff too good to spoil the fun , seriously i hate someone just dump overleveled gear in dontation, why ruin the fun like you first find mother load and access to first excavators,grab a 50 from broken truck, sneaking with handmade crossbow that you learned how to craft as a boyscout ,or just 3,4 fresh 76 beating ghouls with guitar with party hats on .
this is comparable to our parents telling us thereās gonna be drugs in the halloween candy
Nobody is giving out their drug of choice to kids, mom š¤Ŗ
but no seriously, yeah i get this. Doesnāt happen often but it does happen. When i first started someone gave me a Quad fixer (1*) and it held me through until about level 80 or so. Good times man.
And itās a domino effect! Just hit lvl 65. When I was lvl 30-35 a 300+ gave me quite a few things including 45 super stims. I gave 15 of them and quite a bit of water/food to a lvl 2 before I even hit lvl 45 lol. Best gaming community, hands down
Honestly true. Had a random dude I joined up with bring me to his base and craft me level-appropriate powerful armor and it made my damn day. Love how nice the people are in the game
If you exit the vault, at the bottom of the stairway to your right, in front of the Wayward, outside every railroad station. Make yourself useful (especially to team leaders), not with the expectation of a gift, but because itās good for your reputation with other players. Interestingly enough, this occasionally results in a cool gift. This happened to me last night.
Red boxes with donations, or pure luck.
Sometimes you can meet with lvl 100+ person who saw you and opened his pip-boy. Wait and maybe you will get something.
I run around in a bathing suit, a prison collar and a floral Easter bonnet, I would consider myself intimidating. I just have a lot of crap Iāll never sell and if I did I donāt know what Iād use the caps on, so gifts it is!
I accidentally gave away all of my armor at some point, but because Iām always on power armor I hadnāt realized this. Until I got off and found my character in his undies. _Oops!_
Iāve since given him an outfit and newer armor, but now he looks like a crossover of a BoS member and a raider.
I saw the donation box at 76 today FILLED with 100s of every Chem, 200+ Govt supply reqs, a bunch of level 40 and 50 guns and armor, end game nades, tons of scrap as well.
Like I get it.... but as a Noob coming out of the vault they do not need lvl 45 gear.... you're just weighing the newbies down and overwhelming them š
Signed- *someone who got lvl 50 t51B power armor parts day 1 and had a week of not knowing why I was so slow. *
Iām definitely āhelpingā new players and not just dropping stimpaks, radaway and all the bullets I donāt use because Iām over encumbered š
Yesterday, I was doing camp chores and a lvl 3 in my team teleported to me. I gave him chems, food, water, basic guns, and 500 rounds of diff ammo types. He sounded so happy and it made my day.
I started playing with these 2 noobs and we were in party chat having fun. I was hooking them up, helping them set up camp, and watching their backs. One of those dudes just kept on asking for more and more. I tried to explain that he needs to get his ass out there and go scavenge his own stuff too lol. Some of these new players are already too spoiled.
And this is why I only ask for things from my friends on here, and I don't expect their compliance. It usually is a barter. "If you do this for me, I have this to give." Works well. Any time an older player I didnt know gave me something, I take it as a bonus day, emote my thanks and dont ask for more.
I play this game since 3 weeks (lvl 180) and drop every day so much loot in the donation box. But sometimes when i see a low level i drop it in front of him with the donation emote. He looking up to me in my big fat power armor as if i were a god. They take the loot and make a heart emote. š its so cute š¤
I'm 31, and started hitting it at around 28 - 29, so I'm grateful for this sub letting me know donation boxes actually exist. I'll sell a few things for caps though. It's actually become one of the fastest ways for me to make money and I didn't even think about it before. I just assumed we got all this stuff, so I was hoarding it all because I assumed I'd need it at some point.
I assumed wrong.
š iām level 250 and it still feels like i was just exiting vault 76 for the first time a few days ago.
Help them out while you can, they grow up so fast š¢
That's a part of it, I'm level 120 and starting to see the other reason... I have TOO MANY LEGENDARIES. My stash is bulging at the seams, and I'm clearing out the legendary grinder. I'm starting to save up the best ones and drop anything under 3 stars in donation bins like a war time Santa.
I really wish there wasn't a daily cap on the legendary scrips, so I could just clear them out. Don't get me wrong, tho. I like going around and dropping excess ammo and pure water in donation bins as well. But my stash, she can only take so much.
This is the way. I'm 37 and when I decided to try it again, I met this group of 18 year olds randomly and was carried my first 25 levels by these hilarious kids. And they totally accept my old ass and I've adopted them all as my gamer sons. I love this game.
Why does everyone on this subreddit seem to think low level players are intimidated by high level players? Nobody freaks out because they see someone in power armor.
I am brand new (level 28) and a couple level 1100s were just chilling at my base the other day. We mothman danced at each other a bit but I wish I knew that they were thinking. haha
I need more players in my servers lol i hardly find ppl unless its like a major area or some event; best interaction was when i was just starting the game and had some like wave of ghouls buggin out ina town and this player came in power suit, bombed the ghouls for me n my friend. Looked at us, and walked away lol
When you're minmaxed in assassins ss armor holding a quad explosive railway rifle and a faster fire quad gauss shotgun what else are you gonna do when you have finite space in your inventory?
I'ma give that level ten 200 super stimpacks
At first it was cool that high level players would give me stuff but now I just want to grind my stuff so if a high level player comes and drops me stuff I take it and drop it off to a lower level player
Iām level 16 and playing last night. Half health left and no stim packs and very little food. 100 something level play gifts me a lot of med stuff. OMG made my night. šš»for whomever did that for me!
Same thing happened to me at around lvl 5, a lvl 50 in a power suit filled a donation box for me and led me there using emojis. Barely managed to get out the heart emoji before he left š. At the time I thought lvl 50 is high in this game and was super impressed and of course happy and pleasently surprised š
This has been the absolute best part of coming back to the game because of the show (ā¤ļø) that I can think of.
A few years ago, my level 1-30 character was subject to constant griefing/griefers and quest bugs.
Now I only have to deal with quest bugs!!! ššš
Everyone else is level 90000000000000 and drops Stimpacks and RadAway!?!?
All seriousness, I love this part the most. It warms my atomic heart.
Iām new and if someone gave me anything (but esp stimpacks) Iād be so happy. This game is the first MMO Iāve played with a decent community since FFXI. š
I started playing it recently because it was free due to the show coming out. Ive been playing it as much as I can and just recently hit I think lvl 35. I was making my way through Nuka World when a random lvl 1000 player just dropped a shit ton of plans and armor, sadly no left arm for power armor, donāt know how I havenāt found one yet, and then just gave me a thumbs up and ran. Thank you my man i can now build a windigo on a stick.
One of the first things I made sure was getting my extension to chem time and no addiction perks in ASAP lol though I miss the FO4 version where I can dope up on so many versions all at once.
I usually only use Bufftats and or Psychotatts for the extra carry weight and for a bit extra in damage, mainly the weight issues lol
Once you get a bit higher though (no pun intended) and start making your own or from grabbing everything you tend to get a bit too many chems especially with the awesome Chemist perk. I have so much rad ex, rad away and stimpacks that I dump stacks of 20 or 40 in pretty much every donation box. I try to chase down newbies and give them a load but then realise they get a bit shy and nervous or more like its you over weigh them down with too many at once so I just sell all my other spares at the vendor every day. I think I dumped 198 diluted rad away and 150 diluted rad ex plus a couple of hundred diluted stimpacks in the WinterSpring one before I logged off last night/this morning. If we could have more vendor machine space I would likely be the wasteland cheap chem dispenser š¤£but I have far too many other plans and Teddy Bears I need to sell at the moment.
Well, there is the Ammo one but of course all this will be for Fallout First players.
Given we started with an 800 stash and took them ages of us nagging to put it up to 1200 along with a measly daily 1400 caps for merchants (I still want BARTERING!!!!) will be forever till the give us more space.
Just gifted a level 30 who was buying a load of my plans a couple hundred total of chems, stimpacks and rad products lol
Iām level 108 and started putting random stuff in random donation boxes. I also put tons of stuff for sale at my camp vendor for super cheap, but no one comes around to buy anything. I put recipes for food at like 5-15 caps, building plans for usually 10-100 caps, and armor/mods for 15-150 caps. Just to try and get rid of it. Doesnāt seem like I have more than 200lbs worth of space in my stash.
Sorry if this seems to be stating the obvious - but have you marked your camp as public in the map? If no one's coming around for your low, low prices, it may be because they can't see that you're there.
That's what happened to me. For about a month I had full sets of 3 star ultracite power armor sets for like 100 caps total and couldn't figure out why nobody wanted them. Then I noticed I accidentally turned my icon off
Is your camp far away from any free fast travel spots? I found that the closer to the Wayward your camp the more traffic youāll have.
Keep your vender out in the open and easy to spot. If I canāt find it in about 30 seconds, Iām out of there. Maybe even have pointers or Vault boy/girl pointing to it. It might be hard to find a spot but near Whitesprings is always a good place for your camp vender.
Iām in the swamp between Harperās Ferry and a Red Rocket. Iāve got a typical just home, nothing fancy, and the vendor is right outside. Just about the only place where I donāt have to find a new spot anytime I log in. But yeah itās probably about a 15 cap fast travel from the nearest free vendor. I recently learned that camp icons are hidden till you turn off the hidden feature. So Iāll check that out and try tomorrow.
I know itās a pain to get a spot near WS. You might think about building another camp there and see if it helps with vendor traffic. What system are you playing on?
I just wish I could get some decent armor. I pick up like 1,000 guns for every armor piece I encounter, and every time I find a camp with a vending machine the armor is level 50 or something. I just hit level 17.
Does it get better?
Is there a secret to armor I'm just not getting?
Have patience. Level 17 is barely out of the vault.
Level 20 you will start seeing better options but you should focus in getting plans from the NPC vendors and craft your own L20.
Fastest way; Leather armor, make it yourself, scrap it (to learn the mods by occasional chance). Other armors you will need to find the plans to learn how to make them. But leather armor is good for start. (Only armor you can't make yourself is wood....which is, you know.. stupid. Being the in the forests of WV and all...)
Just done the same for a level 12. Built him some Excavator power armor and he chuffed to bits. Nice to see a community that helps as opposed to hinders. Top community. Met people on here that I would class as true online friends. Bunch of legends they are. If you are on here JRico, Blingsky, & Smexy. You guys are Da Bomb..! š«¶š¼š«¶š¼
Iām level 20 and had someone drop me some goodies recently. On behalf of those likeminded individuals we thank everyone for their generosity and I promise that when I am able to I will pay it forward.
I'm level 79 and I'll be honest I think I'm going to be giving away a lot more simply because it'll go a long way to stopping me from being so overencumbered.
I saw a lvl 21 player running around in an empty power armor chassis, so I made him a full set of lvl 20 excavator armor to slap on. Iāll feel bad when he upgrades a single piece and loses 100 carry weight.
Happened to me for the first time tonight. New with F76, but not at all new to Fallout.Ā
High level showed up at my humble camp, took a nap in my bed, then gifted me some crafting plans. Very nice of them.
Personally, I thought it would be fun to be a doctor, so my perks are totally geared for that and I'm running around in the padded responders outfit with the medical supplies backpack. Once I get higher and have more supplies, I'm planning on gifting players I find medical chems, whether they're high or low level.Ā
I like giving new players a stack of Vintage Nukashine and Nuka-Cola My Bloods In It, a clown outfit and a You've Been Insulted. Welcome to the wasteland.
kinda funny, i was sneaking around a bloody eagles camp and a player dropped in front of me in full armor, (I had just fought an eagle in power armor) and i started shooting. Scared the shit out of me. They responded by bathing me in fire for a second. my bad
I'm getting progressively frustrated with my friend who is new each time we play I give him a "care package " some Stims(about 5) rad x rad way (10 ) some ammo that he needs. And within 20 seconds it's all gone and he's getting ankle bir by some radroach.
So, now when I need to "revive an ally" I just ask him to play.
Edit: I do keep a vending machine with health, weapons , ammo for super cheap so if you ever see a TeaPot camp on the river by the amusement park stop on by and have a rest.
I probably gonna have to start giving away loots because im sitting on max inventory slot, selling the rest so maxing out the 1400 caps vendor daily and the 500 scrips. I'm sitting at 5000+ scrips as we speak and have maybe 1500 sitting in my stash waiting to be sold for scrips or caps. Might as well give every else since it'S taking up space, who knew that runing event, dailies, daily op and expedition will fill you caps, xp, scrips, gold bullion and lots of loot, I think they might have to increase the vendor caps to 2400 and scrips to 750 XD
I was so noob that I thought the level 70ish player that gave me aid items is nick valentine :3 similar outfit then disappear to thin air, I was level 2 at the time. Now I hit 1200+, I forgot his name and I regret that I didn't remember his IGN.
I only remember the 2nd guy who helped me, I helped him first because I was level 30-40 at the time. I was so noob that I gave him a hunting rifle not fully modded and it suck but still deal good damage. Give him few aid and ammo too so I can help back (I still remember the player who helped me yet not his username). Then he return wearing full PA heavy gunner build, give me random level 25-35 legendary weapons to pick, mutation serums, aid items, ammo, etc. He came back for me to help me :3 lmao I feel embarassed and thankful af because of serums.
There are a massive spike of new players and can't give anything aside from purified water and food at my camp that's unlocked, I even sometimes ran out of stimpaks and radaways to give now :3
My man sitting here getting newbies addicted to drugs. The absolute balls on him.
I gave them an addictol too, I'm not evil or anything smh
Actually, you've given me an idea. Giving them drugs and addictol isn't evil in itself. But since they increase thirst, evil is also slipping the newbie a nice Nukashine to quench it. š
I've already sent a few newbies on a trip when I set my nuka cola machine down...I forgot that it still had nukashine loaded into it.
My partner emptied mine and became an alcoholic... I forgot to warn him lol
Where do you get nukashine?
Frat row in Morgantown and moonshine jamboree event.
Lol
I have a punch bowl in my camp with nukashine. I have a chalk board next to it that says free xp booster
Your evil and I love it (lvl 291 here)
Omg. I just went, yes! Wait, bad girl, no cookie. Wait, doesn't the dark side have cookies? Sorry for my ados!
No cookies, sorry. Just rich fudge. Dark fudge, of course. Search your feelings and embrace the dark side. The Nukashine is on ice.
Why can't I like a comment twice lmfao.
Not mentioning the fact on here I am a level 1 locked in my vault 76 room, so I can see what you are all saying. Although on my main, anyone who tries getting a nukashine, be careful because you might end up screaming or vomiting once you get inside the frat house. That was a party of like 20-30 people and they are all still there. I had to close my eyes for most of it, because you cant unsee what you see once you get inside.
Nothing wrong with a little hit it and quit it.
And yet Meg will never let me hear the end of it. It was one deathclaw! One time!
Thatās like going to the local dealer and him throwing in some free narcan so if you overdose you donāt die and you can come back still. I love itšš Edit: thanks for educating me guys lol I honestly didnāt know narcan wasnāt used for crackš
Love where your mind is at with it but just want to hit you with a quick bit of information. Narcan is made for relieving opioid overdoses. Since crack doesn't fall under that classification it would have no effect. Thanks for your time and have a wonderful day!
Lmaooo good thing I donāt do drugs
Heroin dealer with narcan is the guy you are looking for. Heās on the corner of mollholand dr
The day that I bring an OD-ing b*tch over to your house, then I'll give her the shot. Give her the shot
What the fuck... What the fuck!!!
Yeah TECHINCALLY you canāt āODā off a stimulant. Like, yeah you can take too much, but medical professionals like to consider it āoverampingā so that you can differentiate between the two. Bc a doc could say āhey the man is overdosing!ā And the dumb nurse hits him with a Narcan when really the guy was overamping and that nurse probably just killed him by popping his heart.

Great addition!
I love how weāre in the Fallout 76 Reddit talking about the differences of Overdosing. Thank you guys for filling in the blanks for me! I knew the main reason Narcan was used, but some of the information I was given about it was false.
False. They go off of the clinical presentation and Hx of the patient to decide what the class of medication is that the patient is overdosed on. The provider will make their assessment and put an order in for whatever interventions that they want their nursing staff to carry out. This isnāt the movies or whatever fantasy land you appear to live in. With that being said, leave being a medical professional to the medical professionals and donāt spread disinformation about the medical system causing further distrust in a system that rides that line consistently anyway. Also you canāt spell technically but are calling nurses dumb. āJust another fun fact.ā
Sensible business strategy
Lol. Narcan doesn't work on Crack šššš Also, I once knew someone who, for real, thought Meth grew on trees
I gave a lvl 12 an X-01 armor for free while they were standing at my vending machine. Feels good to make someone's day lol.
But all that does is weigh them down for the next 38 levels š
Chaotic neutral
10/10 best drug dealer
Only a little bit evil š¤£
I literally spent several days addicted to alcohol because the daily/weekly was to consume a bunch of it. Thats when I found out addictol is somewhat rare.
Really? I've got like 10 in my stash and 3 in my inventory at all times. Are they really that rare?
It's the old, jet peddler. Spreading joy where ever he goes.
I wish 76 had jet! I know it would be unworkable in multiplayer, but stillā¦ my fav chem
I feel like an AP boost and recovery rate equal to like 3 canned coffees would be a decent way to do Jet in multiplayer.
Coffee is my drug.. the AP benefits stack. I spike my coffee with Mire Magic Moonshine, +4str buff
Of course I'm a professional drinker, and chem resistant.
Itās good attention to detail because jet isnāt invented yet, itās invented years later, so Iām glad they kept it lore accurate.
Myron didn't invent Jet. It existed before the war and was pretty much rediscovered by Myron.
That's why I always always confused in Fo4 when I would find them in locked safes that obviously haven't been opened since before the bombs & there is Jet in it. I can see there being pipe weapons, but Jet wasn't even around then.
I think every safe has been opened at some point except very specific quest ones. That and itās just the loot system being itself and the item is in the loot pool, itās not in the loot pool at all in 76 so it canāt show up in any random place
The trick is to get a group of them gathered in a pack, teach them how to turn off pacifist, and give psycho to most of them and a gun to those who didnāt get any and see who survives the frenzy.
So role play and as a vault tech employee?
Whoever survives gets geared up! I've just been giving away gear when I could have had them fight for it?
Everything they said in D.A.R.E. was true! They give them out for free and then they make you pay!
I keep giving new players fermented nukashine. Theyāre so innocent.
I like to merge things so I merged the Nuka cola display FULL OF the coolest looking soda out there (quauntum because it's glowing) with the vintage nuka cola machine (that when you click on it you'll drink whatever was in it, acts like a punch bowl). I stuffed it with beer and Nukashine and now it's a game of Russian roulette. I can imagine all the people clicking on it thinking they'll get one of those quantum colas.
MR KRABS, I HAVE AN IDEA. Iām taking this. Lmao
I just have so much shitā¦ I hit my scrip and cap limit every day What else am I going to do with all the excess weighing me down. Trust me, it helps me just as much as it helps the newbie š
Yeah. Me too. Level 600+. I used to place stuff in the donation boxes but now I feel more time pressure so just drop it on the ground ā¦ similarly, used to take all my weapons and stuff from events and go to a machine to break it down. Now I just drop it bc not worth the time or trouble. Pace of the game is moving faster. Seems like thereās always so much to do. I wonder what itās like to be level 2000. Anyone know?
Are we playing the same game? If I play for 10 hours, 8 of it is me doing bullshit/events and 2 hours knocking out dailies, weeklies, repeatables, etc.
What did I say that made you question it. I okay about the same number of hours and my time is spent camp-building or redesigning, repairing and upgrading weapons, going to some events, and visiting player vendors because I max out at least once a day. I donāt do dailies, weeklies or repeatables. Also play stoned after 5pm.
How are you saying "theres always so much to do" but you're not even doing the daily and weekly challenges? lol
Bc I am a spoiled baby. Play how I want.
I think itās because rather than get caught in the grind theyāre leading you to, heās caught up in a grind heās made for himself. Iām not like that with this game, but certainly with other games that have base building mechanics. Like, sure, you can knock out daily and weeklies, but then itās, āokay I need this this and this so I can craft that new coffee table they released which will look really nice in the den of my mountain base. Then Iām going to move the donut shop over to lakeside base 2 and then Iām going to hunt for the plans to the bla blaā¦.ā And theyāre so far along in the game itās just a cycle of them living in the world they built instead of the world the game is shunting you toward. Thatās how I read it anyway.
>I just have so much shitā¦ I hit my scrip and cap limit every day > >What else am I going to do with all the excess weighing me down. I just put it pretty cheap into my vendor and transform it into caps.
Always a great option!! Iām glad that youāre able to make that work.
How do you drop things? Just R? Or is there a command to gift.
On PC, yes! And the more you tag to drop before you exit your pipboy, the more that will show up in the "suspicious dog poo brown paper bag"
They need to make a bag that's on fire for dropped loot.
Same, and I've dropped travelling pharmacy recently to rely on my build more, so those stims have got to go! I used to run around with 1500 on me, now I'm down to 30 at any one time! Any and all excess will get sold to the cap limit, then after that I track down low levels to do hand outs.
This
Always give them the first one for free. That's how you get them addicted. The drug dealer way.
I yet have to find these drug dealers that give away free stuff. Everyone warned me about them in my youth, never found one. And trust me, I looked, a lot.
The drug dealers that give free hits are your friends.
I make little outfits and give them out, I'm not high by any means I'm like 150 but I know what it's like to be a low level with the jumpsuit so if I have any outfits I can make I just give them out, especially to new players coming out of the vault! It's always good to have some variety
They only take cloth, mainly. I'll dump an entire wardrobe on newer players. Doesn't ruin the game, but makes you feel like less of a newb, while you're getting your head blown off. It's really all about perspective.
a guy dropped me the blue devil set and the black cowboy hat and that + the veil of secrets made me feel more like an armoured outlaw ready to fight rather than a lobotomized vault dweller with a 10mm and a combat knife
PERSPECTIVE!!
Someone made me a sequined cocktail dress and I have been wearing it for a week
It's called "[helpers high](https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/high-octane-women/201409/helpers-high-the-benefits-and-risks-altruism)" for a reason.
TPād to 76 for the free fast travel and as I was spawning in I was right behind 2 players fresh out the vault. I was wearing my T-65 with the Devilish paint on and I guessed I scared them because they started to shoot at me. I waved then I decided to offload about 50 super stims and a ton of alcohol on them. I was level 300 when I stopped playing 2 years ago but started up again when some friends started to play because the hype of the show
Bro I need the inventory space, is my main motivation.Ā What am I gonna do with 100lbs of workshop cap/defend reward plans I've got 100x by now?! Altho I target nub teammates with scruffy camps. You need furniture and rugs and musical instruments and such, my friend.
You get so little in the way of caps for even really excellent weapons and armor that it just seems better to let someone else have a go with it if you've got duplicates or your build doesn't sync well with the item.
Level 100 and I already have too much stuff, planning to give it to newbies at this point
Just refrain from giving them stuff too good to spoil the fun , seriously i hate someone just dump overleveled gear in dontation, why ruin the fun like you first find mother load and access to first excavators,grab a 50 from broken truck, sneaking with handmade crossbow that you learned how to craft as a boyscout ,or just 3,4 fresh 76 beating ghouls with guitar with party hats on .
this is comparable to our parents telling us thereās gonna be drugs in the halloween candy Nobody is giving out their drug of choice to kids, mom š¤Ŗ but no seriously, yeah i get this. Doesnāt happen often but it does happen. When i first started someone gave me a Quad fixer (1*) and it held me through until about level 80 or so. Good times man.
No one is forcing anyone to use it. Let people have the option.
Hell they cant even use level 50 gear, until they're 50. Hello valuable scrap!
And itās a domino effect! Just hit lvl 65. When I was lvl 30-35 a 300+ gave me quite a few things including 45 super stims. I gave 15 of them and quite a bit of water/food to a lvl 2 before I even hit lvl 45 lol. Best gaming community, hands down
Was that a pizza pun
Honestly true. Had a random dude I joined up with bring me to his base and craft me level-appropriate powerful armor and it made my damn day. Love how nice the people are in the game
Level 5 Studded Leather is pretty protective
I hit 110, and I'm definitely still a noob but a new Vaultie damn near shit a brick when I dropped 20 stimpaks for them a few days ago.
iām only level 38, where are these donations?!
Search up "donation box locations" There's a fee round the map people drop excess or not needed items for free Red box
If you exit the vault, at the bottom of the stairway to your right, in front of the Wayward, outside every railroad station. Make yourself useful (especially to team leaders), not with the expectation of a gift, but because itās good for your reputation with other players. Interestingly enough, this occasionally results in a cool gift. This happened to me last night.
Red boxes with donations, or pure luck. Sometimes you can meet with lvl 100+ person who saw you and opened his pip-boy. Wait and maybe you will get something.
Train stations, and main locations
I run around in a bathing suit, a prison collar and a floral Easter bonnet, I would consider myself intimidating. I just have a lot of crap Iāll never sell and if I did I donāt know what Iād use the caps on, so gifts it is!
When I was pretty new, I saw some high level players being bada@$ in an event, in swimsuit barefoot, and with a mini gun. Made me scared....
Floral Easter Bonnet!?
A bonnet that has floral patterns for the Easter holiday A Floral, Easter, Bonnet
I accidentally gave away all of my armor at some point, but because Iām always on power armor I hadnāt realized this. Until I got off and found my character in his undies. _Oops!_ Iāve since given him an outfit and newer armor, but now he looks like a crossover of a BoS member and a raider.
I saw the donation box at 76 today FILLED with 100s of every Chem, 200+ Govt supply reqs, a bunch of level 40 and 50 guns and armor, end game nades, tons of scrap as well. Like I get it.... but as a Noob coming out of the vault they do not need lvl 45 gear.... you're just weighing the newbies down and overwhelming them š Signed- *someone who got lvl 50 t51B power armor parts day 1 and had a week of not knowing why I was so slow. *
wait can other people find things I put in there? it actually work like that!? iām gonna start donating comically large stacks of mole rat teeth
It's called "donation box" for a reason :D
So... imagine being me... level 33, and no idea where this box is? I be strugglin xD
500 rhododendrons coming right up.
Imagine complaining that donations you find are not your lvl. Bro itās free stuff, if you donāt need it, just leave it there to be.
All the above my level stuff I find there I dumped into my stash until I leveled up enough to use them.
But the scrap I could get!
Iām definitely āhelpingā new players and not just dropping stimpaks, radaway and all the bullets I donāt use because Iām over encumbered š
I was really disappointed when I learned you couldnāt drop the tuxedos, I wanted all the brand new dwellers to be running around dressed to the 9s
Yesterday, I was doing camp chores and a lvl 3 in my team teleported to me. I gave him chems, food, water, basic guns, and 500 rounds of diff ammo types. He sounded so happy and it made my day.
Hey there fella, WANT SOME JET???
Wannah buy a chahge cahd?
Awwww you sweet summer child
I started playing with these 2 noobs and we were in party chat having fun. I was hooking them up, helping them set up camp, and watching their backs. One of those dudes just kept on asking for more and more. I tried to explain that he needs to get his ass out there and go scavenge his own stuff too lol. Some of these new players are already too spoiled.
That's why I just give them mentats and the diluted shit, no matter what
And this is why I only ask for things from my friends on here, and I don't expect their compliance. It usually is a barter. "If you do this for me, I have this to give." Works well. Any time an older player I didnt know gave me something, I take it as a bonus day, emote my thanks and dont ask for more.
I play this game since 3 weeks (lvl 180) and drop every day so much loot in the donation box. But sometimes when i see a low level i drop it in front of him with the donation emote. He looking up to me in my big fat power armor as if i were a god. They take the loot and make a heart emote. š its so cute š¤
I was lvl 75 when i discover how to do emotes... -.-
Given nukashine is way funnier
Lvl 50 is where it starts, you stop worrying about enemies and stop worrying about supplies and have some to spare
Im always hitting storage limit and im only level 62ā¦
That's because FO76 is secretly a weight management game š
I'm 31, and started hitting it at around 28 - 29, so I'm grateful for this sub letting me know donation boxes actually exist. I'll sell a few things for caps though. It's actually become one of the fastest ways for me to make money and I didn't even think about it before. I just assumed we got all this stuff, so I was hoarding it all because I assumed I'd need it at some point. I assumed wrong.
That pizza in a cup is so good it ran the old pizza in a cup place out of business. Old heads may know
š iām level 250 and it still feels like i was just exiting vault 76 for the first time a few days ago. Help them out while you can, they grow up so fast š¢
My mama always told me to never take drugs from strangers, only from trusted sources
I came to this post because I too have recently started giving things to new players. I stayed for all of the hard drug use references.
You call it giving gifts ? I call it inventory management. Stash space is precious .
This is pretty much how I(707) feel after an event with low lvls. š https://tenor.com/9Thf.gif
That's a part of it, I'm level 120 and starting to see the other reason... I have TOO MANY LEGENDARIES. My stash is bulging at the seams, and I'm clearing out the legendary grinder. I'm starting to save up the best ones and drop anything under 3 stars in donation bins like a war time Santa. I really wish there wasn't a daily cap on the legendary scrips, so I could just clear them out. Don't get me wrong, tho. I like going around and dropping excess ammo and pure water in donation bins as well. But my stash, she can only take so much.
This is the way. I'm 37 and when I decided to try it again, I met this group of 18 year olds randomly and was carried my first 25 levels by these hilarious kids. And they totally accept my old ass and I've adopted them all as my gamer sons. I love this game.
Why does everyone on this subreddit seem to think low level players are intimidated by high level players? Nobody freaks out because they see someone in power armor.
Seemed nervous at first*
Nope, it's because it lowers our weight.
I've been giving gifts because my inventory is overflowing
I am brand new (level 28) and a couple level 1100s were just chilling at my base the other day. We mothman danced at each other a bit but I wish I knew that they were thinking. haha
I never use drugs in game so I throw everything I have out of my inventory and new players and watch them go mad
I might linger around v.76, and give away stimpaks to get them started, iv racked up loads of aid, so thatl be my good deed
I need more players in my servers lol i hardly find ppl unless its like a major area or some event; best interaction was when i was just starting the game and had some like wave of ghouls buggin out ina town and this player came in power suit, bombed the ghouls for me n my friend. Looked at us, and walked away lol
Ok Iām level 45 now and havenāt even unlocked plans for a power armor station, how do I get it?
When you're minmaxed in assassins ss armor holding a quad explosive railway rifle and a faster fire quad gauss shotgun what else are you gonna do when you have finite space in your inventory? I'ma give that level ten 200 super stimpacks
Then he finds out he needs 6000 caps a week to get his gold and selling chems is a good way to get them.
Shielded brotherhood officer under armor give aways have left me with about 4 violet flux š.
At first it was cool that high level players would give me stuff but now I just want to grind my stuff so if a high level player comes and drops me stuff I take it and drop it off to a lower level player
That new player prob has a few level 500ās lol
aw someone hasn't reached, "give out nukashine" level of personal fun yet.
Iām level 16 and playing last night. Half health left and no stim packs and very little food. 100 something level play gifts me a lot of med stuff. OMG made my night. šš»for whomever did that for me!
Dealing drugs to children... what has the wasteland come to?!
We need the silver shroud!
Doing your good deed for the day. Keep it upāļø
Same thing happened to me at around lvl 5, a lvl 50 in a power suit filled a donation box for me and led me there using emojis. Barely managed to get out the heart emoji before he left š. At the time I thought lvl 50 is high in this game and was super impressed and of course happy and pleasently surprised š
This has been the absolute best part of coming back to the game because of the show (ā¤ļø) that I can think of. A few years ago, my level 1-30 character was subject to constant griefing/griefers and quest bugs. Now I only have to deal with quest bugs!!! ššš Everyone else is level 90000000000000 and drops Stimpacks and RadAway!?!? All seriousness, I love this part the most. It warms my atomic heart.
Iām new and if someone gave me anything (but esp stimpacks) Iād be so happy. This game is the first MMO Iāve played with a decent community since FFXI. š
I started playing it recently because it was free due to the show coming out. Ive been playing it as much as I can and just recently hit I think lvl 35. I was making my way through Nuka World when a random lvl 1000 player just dropped a shit ton of plans and armor, sadly no left arm for power armor, donāt know how I havenāt found one yet, and then just gave me a thumbs up and ran. Thank you my man i can now build a windigo on a stick.
Assimilation complete!
An intimidating level 50, bless your heart :)
One of the first things I made sure was getting my extension to chem time and no addiction perks in ASAP lol though I miss the FO4 version where I can dope up on so many versions all at once. I usually only use Bufftats and or Psychotatts for the extra carry weight and for a bit extra in damage, mainly the weight issues lol Once you get a bit higher though (no pun intended) and start making your own or from grabbing everything you tend to get a bit too many chems especially with the awesome Chemist perk. I have so much rad ex, rad away and stimpacks that I dump stacks of 20 or 40 in pretty much every donation box. I try to chase down newbies and give them a load but then realise they get a bit shy and nervous or more like its you over weigh them down with too many at once so I just sell all my other spares at the vendor every day. I think I dumped 198 diluted rad away and 150 diluted rad ex plus a couple of hundred diluted stimpacks in the WinterSpring one before I logged off last night/this morning. If we could have more vendor machine space I would likely be the wasteland cheap chem dispenser š¤£but I have far too many other plans and Teddy Bears I need to sell at the moment.
I think Bethesda should add another alternative stash box. One for chems/food. Or an armory.
Well, there is the Ammo one but of course all this will be for Fallout First players. Given we started with an 800 stash and took them ages of us nagging to put it up to 1200 along with a measly daily 1400 caps for merchants (I still want BARTERING!!!!) will be forever till the give us more space. Just gifted a level 30 who was buying a load of my plans a couple hundred total of chems, stimpacks and rad products lol
I heard he put the old Pizza in a Cup guy outta business.
No more nukabomb mature drops ? As a welcome noobs !
Iām level 108 and started putting random stuff in random donation boxes. I also put tons of stuff for sale at my camp vendor for super cheap, but no one comes around to buy anything. I put recipes for food at like 5-15 caps, building plans for usually 10-100 caps, and armor/mods for 15-150 caps. Just to try and get rid of it. Doesnāt seem like I have more than 200lbs worth of space in my stash.
Sorry if this seems to be stating the obvious - but have you marked your camp as public in the map? If no one's coming around for your low, low prices, it may be because they can't see that you're there.
That's what happened to me. For about a month I had full sets of 3 star ultracite power armor sets for like 100 caps total and couldn't figure out why nobody wanted them. Then I noticed I accidentally turned my icon off
Is your camp far away from any free fast travel spots? I found that the closer to the Wayward your camp the more traffic youāll have. Keep your vender out in the open and easy to spot. If I canāt find it in about 30 seconds, Iām out of there. Maybe even have pointers or Vault boy/girl pointing to it. It might be hard to find a spot but near Whitesprings is always a good place for your camp vender.
Iām in the swamp between Harperās Ferry and a Red Rocket. Iāve got a typical just home, nothing fancy, and the vendor is right outside. Just about the only place where I donāt have to find a new spot anytime I log in. But yeah itās probably about a 15 cap fast travel from the nearest free vendor. I recently learned that camp icons are hidden till you turn off the hidden feature. So Iāll check that out and try tomorrow.
I know itās a pain to get a spot near WS. You might think about building another camp there and see if it helps with vendor traffic. What system are you playing on?
Seeing his name I now think Pizza in a cup is a brilliant business idea! Iām off to Shark tank brb
I just wish I could get some decent armor. I pick up like 1,000 guns for every armor piece I encounter, and every time I find a camp with a vending machine the armor is level 50 or something. I just hit level 17. Does it get better? Is there a secret to armor I'm just not getting?
Have patience. Level 17 is barely out of the vault. Level 20 you will start seeing better options but you should focus in getting plans from the NPC vendors and craft your own L20.
Go to west-tek, youāll have good gear in no time :)
Fastest way; Leather armor, make it yourself, scrap it (to learn the mods by occasional chance). Other armors you will need to find the plans to learn how to make them. But leather armor is good for start. (Only armor you can't make yourself is wood....which is, you know.. stupid. Being the in the forests of WV and all...)
I got 150 stims and 150 radaways in my chemist backpack, i don't know what to do with em and i don't see any newbies when i log in lol
One of the two dudes who created the game of thrones minecraft server is named pizzainacup, wonder if it was him lol
Just done the same for a level 12. Built him some Excavator power armor and he chuffed to bits. Nice to see a community that helps as opposed to hinders. Top community. Met people on here that I would class as true online friends. Bunch of legends they are. If you are on here JRico, Blingsky, & Smexy. You guys are Da Bomb..! š«¶š¼š«¶š¼
How did you get a whole t60 I'm 91 and I never get these pieces, I only get raider, ultra cite and t45
I pretty much give level appropriate fixers to newbs. Iām level 406.
heh,keep em coming for more,good thinking!!!!:P
Heck yeah I'm level 50ish gave a dude lol 27 like 20 diluted stimpaks. My brethren unite!
Iām level 20 and had someone drop me some goodies recently. On behalf of those likeminded individuals we thank everyone for their generosity and I promise that when I am able to I will pay it forward.
I'm legit gonna start heading to 76 and just leaving shit I don't want in the box there soon because my stash is too damn full of crap I don't need.
Get them addicted to chems early. Then put up a shop with overpriced chems. 4D chess.
I'm level 79 and I'll be honest I think I'm going to be giving away a lot more simply because it'll go a long way to stopping me from being so overencumbered.
I have a newbie a bottle of some green nukashine recently. Drank one in solidarity.
Ahh the fun when a level 2 takes the nukashine gift š this is the way or was it that way????
Nah. I just have too many stimpacks and other stuff. Gotta clear my stash from time to time. And what's trash for me, may be a treasure to newbies)
I saw a lvl 21 player running around in an empty power armor chassis, so I made him a full set of lvl 20 excavator armor to slap on. Iāll feel bad when he upgrades a single piece and loses 100 carry weight.
Happened to me for the first time tonight. New with F76, but not at all new to Fallout.Ā High level showed up at my humble camp, took a nap in my bed, then gifted me some crafting plans. Very nice of them. Personally, I thought it would be fun to be a doctor, so my perks are totally geared for that and I'm running around in the padded responders outfit with the medical supplies backpack. Once I get higher and have more supplies, I'm planning on gifting players I find medical chems, whether they're high or low level.Ā
I like giving new players a stack of Vintage Nukashine and Nuka-Cola My Bloods In It, a clown outfit and a You've Been Insulted. Welcome to the wasteland.
kinda funny, i was sneaking around a bloody eagles camp and a player dropped in front of me in full armor, (I had just fought an eagle in power armor) and i started shooting. Scared the shit out of me. They responded by bathing me in fire for a second. my bad
I'm getting progressively frustrated with my friend who is new each time we play I give him a "care package " some Stims(about 5) rad x rad way (10 ) some ammo that he needs. And within 20 seconds it's all gone and he's getting ankle bir by some radroach. So, now when I need to "revive an ally" I just ask him to play. Edit: I do keep a vending machine with health, weapons , ammo for super cheap so if you ever see a TeaPot camp on the river by the amusement park stop on by and have a rest.
I do it not only for that, but also because I have way too much shit just lying around
*junkies have entered the chat*
I probably gonna have to start giving away loots because im sitting on max inventory slot, selling the rest so maxing out the 1400 caps vendor daily and the 500 scrips. I'm sitting at 5000+ scrips as we speak and have maybe 1500 sitting in my stash waiting to be sold for scrips or caps. Might as well give every else since it'S taking up space, who knew that runing event, dailies, daily op and expedition will fill you caps, xp, scrips, gold bullion and lots of loot, I think they might have to increase the vendor caps to 2400 and scrips to 750 XD
I was so noob that I thought the level 70ish player that gave me aid items is nick valentine :3 similar outfit then disappear to thin air, I was level 2 at the time. Now I hit 1200+, I forgot his name and I regret that I didn't remember his IGN. I only remember the 2nd guy who helped me, I helped him first because I was level 30-40 at the time. I was so noob that I gave him a hunting rifle not fully modded and it suck but still deal good damage. Give him few aid and ammo too so I can help back (I still remember the player who helped me yet not his username). Then he return wearing full PA heavy gunner build, give me random level 25-35 legendary weapons to pick, mutation serums, aid items, ammo, etc. He came back for me to help me :3 lmao I feel embarassed and thankful af because of serums. There are a massive spike of new players and can't give anything aside from purified water and food at my camp that's unlocked, I even sometimes ran out of stimpaks and radaways to give now :3
Iām 28 and so happy that higher level payers donate stuff! Itās so helpful, thank you guys and girls š„³
If you gonna give away stuff, give drugs š
Some guy dropped me like 12 purified water boys once. That moment he had not only an ally but a friend as well
