@@aridenkane no problem, thanks for your video. New player here and your video really helped me not run out of ammo for my automatic rifles which I was struggling with👍
@@aridenkane There's also a safe next to the trunk in the South Cutthroat Camp, behind the shelve next to the trunk, it also gave me some contextual ammo.
Finally, a sane youtuber who isn't screaming, acting stupid, and immature for attention. Just the stuff we want to know, with delivery that doesn't make me feel like it's targeted toward 14 year olds who drink nothing but monster.
Dude really is so chill and your comment is so on point. I'm kind of jealous being that I often feel like one of the highest strung people in existence and that's while being on medical marijuana most days. Lol. I have to watch some more of this guy's stuff in any event. Channel some of that energy.
I actually tought it would be a waste of time but farming these isn’t so bad at all it’s great for when you running low and don’t feel like getting materials to craft! Great video!!
Exactly. I wouldn't say this is a replacement for other methods of getting ammo, but it's definitely nice for when you're low and don't have the time or patience for farming other materials.
This video definitely needs more than 12k views. I've seen videos showcasing only 1 area that have well over 100k views and this video crushes the others like a pancake! Well done sir! You take your time not to rush to each spot too fast, and you show where these locations are on the map so we can follow you easily! Keep up the great work man.
Holy smoke this dudes voice and the music, I’m asleep. It’s actually refreshing in a RU-vid environment where everybody yells and freaks out with fake voices. Good info for beginners too. Well done sir, keep on chillin.
OMG, I'm so happy you're making videos for Fallout 76 again because out of all the guide videos I enjoyed yours the most, went to your channel and saw Fallout 76 video was a few months ago. I'm new and it's very easy to follow along your video
Thank you🙌 I had less than 60 rounds for my tesle rifle and after this video I had over 2000. Definitely gonna come back and repeat this whenever I'm low.
Great video, I didn't know you can farm Ultracite this way and have been avoiding modding my weapons for that reason. As a suggestion: You can press "R" on PC on corpses to also loot nearby bodies so you don't have to run to each one.
Yeah, no real reason not to prime your weapons imo. You get tons of Ultracite ammo from contextual ammo. You can also craft large quantities of it pretty easily too.
just a returning player from 2020 and never knew you could farm ammo depending on what weapon you use now including ultracite ammo. thank you for the guide
Welcome back, my friend. Glad to have you. I don't remember exactly when they added Contextual Ammo to Fallout 76, but I'm pretty sure it was after 2020. It was and is a game changer for ammo. Glad you like the guide. Thanks for watching.
This works today and when flux is still an issue for me to farm this supplies both my Fixer ultricite ammo and my Plasma flamers, Your one shotting everything is imppressive. I need to remember this info Thx 10/10 !
So I just did everything in this video other then Atlantic city and you got me 3581 ammo for .308 Thank you very much good sir you are a gentleman and scholar
Chilled voice talent is something everyone can benefit from. The music choice is equally on point. Dang bro, do any guided meditations? Bet he says yes.
Hey this is the first time I've found your content. Gotta say man you have a very soothing voice, and your slow even pacing is relaxing. Don't even think you need the smooth background music. If you ever have to quit your day job a career in voicing audiobooks might be your calling lol. Oh and the runs are great too!
been getting back into fallout 76 lately. am level 250 now and have used almost every single one of ur farming videos for mats. by far the handiest channel when it comes to 76 tips
There were a couple other boxes that I found along your route. There was a safe at the South cutthroat camp next to that trunk at 20:23 that gave me ammo. There is a 0 level locked ammo box at the third guard tower behind the cage at 22:49. Between the couch and the fence. I stopped around there since I got plenty of ammo from the run. Thanks for the in depth walkthrough!
Thank you for this it helps a lot, because I have recently got bored of my holy fire build and have been burning through ammunition trying different builds.
Yeah I do the same. Normally roll a lever action rifle, but switch between a few different weapons when I get bored. Even have a chainsaw in the rotation. Sometimes good to get up close and personal.
The only points I'd bring up is that dead enemies don't drop ammo for the weapon you have equipped. They drop ammo for the weapon(s) you used to attack (kill) it with, with a chance of dropping other ammo. Lootable boxes will contain ammo that you currently have equipped. More specifically, they will contain ammo for the weapon you had equipped when the game engine decided what to render inside of the box. So if you proximity discover an ammo box while holding the 10mm pistol but then switch to a shotgun before opening the box, you'll more than likely still get 10mm ammo from that box, not shotgun ammo.
I'll take that. I probably should have been more clear. Thanks for the feedback, my friend. It's much appreciated. Even when I'm wrong. Maybe even especially when I'm wrong. 😀
Great guide as always my friend always a pleasure this guy's videos helped me a lot when I returned to the game last year I highly recommend if you're new or veteran player 🤟🏾🤟🏾👍🏾👍🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾
The 255 loot rule applies here. After looting the boxes, you need to loot another 255 items. Most people go to Summersville and loot the burned books in the first house, but any 255 items will work. Then server hop and loot the boxes again. Time is not a factor in the equation. I hope that helps.
Some folks are nice enough to sell ammo for cheap. Ive been avoiding using my automatic weapons because they run out of so fast and then it takes s long time to passively recover it. I try doing by peoples camps and a lot of people will seek that ammo for a cap each which i guess is still expensive but personally the cap to fun ratio is worth it
Just serverhop Camden park upwards from the ash heap it gives you 54 lead per run in about 5 mins you’ll have over 300 round of your ammo of choices btw make sure to run ammo factory and ammosmith max them out if you can but if your under level 50 just run ammosmith or take this route pick your poison
Good point, my friend. If you're running some of the more ammo hungry guns you definitely want to include other methods for getting ammo. Especially crafting your own.
Bro i got so much fuel thank u so much! This has been awesome to follow your video route step by step, and end with that note for the locked dufflebag lol. Thanks bro!
Yup, locked ammo boxes offer increased rewards. Not so much on level-0 boxes, but that's a level-1 ammo box so definitely increased rewards from that one.
Yeah, shotguns are like me with my Level Action Rifle. One shot one kill. Very ammo efficient. Automatic weapons are pretty inefficient. When running automatic weapons you kind of have to employ multiple strategies to keep on top of it. Using ammo converters, buying it off players when you can find it, crafting it yourself, and doing runs like the ones in this video. I'm planning more ammo videos. This is the first in the playlist for ammo specifically.
How come even with scrounger on I'm only getting like an extra 3-6 ammo? I'm so confused all the videos I see when scrounger goes off they get like double the ammo but for some reason I only get like 3 to 6 extra ammo?..
Scrounger is a nice to have for sure, but depending on the ammo type it will be less effective. For example missiles and mini nukes you generally get one from each ammo box. When scrounger goes off you get two. Fifty percent increase. Other ammo types where you might get thirty or forty rounds might get the same percentage, but maybe that's only 3-6 rounds more that the forty you would have gotten. What type of ammo are you looking for?
That's my Anti Armor Lever Action Rifle. It's also got +50% VATS Hit Chance and Crit Charge. I've had it for years. I love it. Super ammo efficient. I'd save up my jelly beans and roll one with legendary cores. Probably your best chance.
Not currently, no, but I'll move it up the list. If you just need a few, you can hit the vendors at the Whitespring Mall. Helena at the NW end will almost always have a few silver items that you can buy and scrap. I'll get to work on that guide soon.
i was server hopping the new vault 63 (Dark hollow manor) But it dont work anymore after the new update its either glitched or patched. i would get 300+ ammo when i was doing it
It does. You get mini nukes the same way as other ammo, but you get only 1 or two with Scrounger which seems right. It does seem a little buggy though with mini nukes. I got a lot more empty containers.
After you loot 255 more items and server-hop. Most people go to Summersville and loot all the books in the first house. There are over 300 there. Then, server-hop and they should test on another server unless someone else grabs them.
@@aridenkane i was running with a quad 50 cal machine gun to mow down scorched and ghouls. I wanna keep the 50 cal until I’m able to get better legendary upgrades on it. Recently I’ve been using the Gourmand’s Bow with stealth armor, the damage boost works with me because I’m always picking up food to stay well fed and hydrated anyways
Sadly this doesn't help much for me you hardly get any 40mm explosive grenade rounds when using this method (which is what I mainly need) and you can't get any mini nukes from ammo crates which also sucks doing this method & players sell those two types of ammo for stupid unrealistic amounts of caps. So I'm stuck crafting and using that horrible ammo converter along with daily ops as my only option along with expiditions.
Yeah those ammo types are difficult. I would think that Daily Ops and Expeditions are the way to go. Ammo Converter isn't awful except for the entire damn interface.
The first two locations will work right out of the Vault. Locations three and four, you may need a couple levels, but a level twenty right out of the vault could do it. Admittedly, the last location is for higher levels, but I can't leave the veterans out. Let me know if you've tried to run the first four without success. Maybe a new video for people right out of the vault done on a new character would be more helpful. I'd be down for that.
Yeah, some of the ammo types are definitely more problematic than others. I'm never in danger of running out of .45 even Ultracite .45. Very efficient ammo type.
