BACKPACKS
- Backpacks are new functional items that you can equip to increase your Carry Weight.
- You can receive your first Backpack by being promoted to the Pioneer Scouts rank of Possum.
- Craft higher-level Backpacks to receive larger carry weight bonuses.
- Backpacks can be modded to change their appearance to match your personal tastes.
- You can also add functional mods to give your Backpack more utility, like increased damage reduction or food refrigeration, often in exchange for reduced storage capacity.
- Backpacks will remain visible over outfits and armor but will be unequipped when you step into a set of Power Armor.
- Outfits that already have a cosmetic backpack built in will not display your functional backpack. However, you will still receive the benefits that your backpack provides.
- Note: Our previous article on Backpacks stated they would remain functional while wearing Power Armor. This was incorrect and we apologize for the miscommunication.
- Read our recent article on Fallout.com to learn more about Backpacks.
PERSONAL VENDING MACHINES
- Start a new business venture by building a Vending Machine in your C.A.M.P., which you can use to sell items to other Dwellers for Caps.
- You can build up to four Vending Machines in your C.A.M.P. using the Vendors tab in the Build Menu.
- Power it to advertise your C.A.M.P. to other players on the Map. Players can also Fast Travel to C.A.M.P.s that offer vending and appear on the Map.
- Up to 30 individual or stacks of items can be assigned to the Vending Machine at any given time.
- Assign items from your Inventory or Stash to your Vending Machine and set the Cap prices that you’d like to sell them for.
- Items you’ve assigned to Vending will not be removed from your Stash. Instead, they will display an icon next to their names so that it’s easy to tell what you’ve placed on sale at a glance.
- You will receive a notification whenever a player buys one of your items. 90% of the sale price will be added to your Cap balance. This 10% fee has been designed to help maintain the health of the game’s economy and mitigate inflation.
- Items can still be sold after you’ve reached the current maximum Cap balance of 25,000, but you will not receive any Caps beyond that limit.
- Alternatively, you can use the Map to seek out other traders who have set up shop when you’re looking to purchase new gear for your collection.
LEGENDARY EXCHANGE MACHINES
- Legendary Exchange Machines have been added at Train Stations around Appalachia. You can use them to turn your unwanted legendary items into a new currency, called Legendary Scrip.
- Legendary Scrip can be used to buy legendary items from the Purveyor, a new “Legendary Vendor” who will be arriving in Appalachia on May 16. Prepare for her arrival by exchanging your items for Scrip.
- The higher the star-rating of your legendary items, the more Scrip you will receive from Exchange Machines.
- Legendary Scrip cannot be traded and is not shared across characters on your account.
C.A.M.P., CRAFTING, AND WORKSHOPS
- C.A.M.P. Damage Protections: C.A.M.P. objects and Structures no longer take damage from other players as long as the defending player, and their C.A.M.P. defenses, are not hostile against their attackers.
- Foundations: The requirement that all Foundation pieces in a block of Foundations need to be built on the terrain has been removed.

- The Whitespring: C.A.M.P.s can no longer be built or placed near the Whitespring Golf Club.
- Dev Note: We’ve seen many requests from the Fallout 76 community to remove the ability to build C.A.M.P.s near the Whitespring Golf Club, as they can tend to trivialize enemies in the area. We agree with this feedback and have decided to place a no-build zone in this location.
- Workshop PVP: The following Adjustments have been made to the rules of Workshop PVP:
- Workshop owners must now enter the bounds of the Workshop before they are placed in PVP with the contesting players.
- Workshop Turrets no longer attack a Wanted player unless that player is contesting the owner’s Workshop.
- Players that are not actively contesting an owned Workshop cannot damage the objects built there.
