Fallout 76: Best Legendary Mod Boxes, Best Legendary Effects to Use or Sell. 

the weightless armour has some uses. 1- players that use PA but want some defence for when they step out, particularly when paired with jetpacks and other lazy legendary effects 2- people who want to display armours on their mannequins to save stash space

In six months you will be able to get mods from player vendors for 500 caps just like serums selling for 250 caps now.

I really appreciate all the pre-update advice. I now have so many pieces of Unyielding Thorn Armor with various Intelligence, Endurance, and Strength pieces. I have “learned” Unyielding, Bloodied, Power Attack, Luck, and Endurance.

The 2nd Star "rapid" description is bugged, it can be applied to both ranged and Melee on Melee it's faster swing speed

3* SPECIAL mods can only be put on Weapons . 2* SPECIALS can be put on Armor & Power Armor .

Me: "I feel vary lucky to have unlocked this Legendary Effects. I wonder if Angry Turtle likes them?" Angry Turtle: "Useless! Useless! No! Bad! Useless!"

Maybe i got lucky finding an anti armour mod in a player vendor for 1.5k caps? I also got lucky scrapping only about 10 overeaters and learned the plan for it. Perfect bubblegum is a lot more valuable now.

Don't overlook the value of that Small Guns bobblehead for the Arms Keeper's mod.

Broke down a lot of Malpractice and then upgraded a few Fixers with 3rd star -25 action point cost. Being a vats build it was for ordained I needed it. Wasn’t aware of where the plans are listed that are unlocked. Have to check what I have. I was just using what boxes I unlocked from breaking down. I’m hoping the above plan is one of them. Caps a plenty.

Got 18 or 20 plans already. Ods are bad but still fun to unlock. Wasn't playing fo76 in 2 months, this new update got me back. At first day already made my dream armor, uny -100%, and got tons of plans i wanted. Aa, bld, expl, overeaters even 3-rd star for -90%ww and -25% vats cost

Normal plasma with pulse capacitor and flamer barrel works with explosive

I assume Assassin and next year Ghoulslayer (when the "play as ghoul" feature goes live) are fine for PVP. Hunters could be good if the Snake raid boss from the Gleaming Depths update that you have to farm for 4-star items counts as animal. Nocturnal is actually good on armor during the night as there is a bug that causes that each nocturnal armor piece adds the summed up bonus of all pieces. If you have five nocturnal armor pieces each piece gives +200 DR/ER, which can be even better than Overeater. The 3-star Charisma/Luck/Intelligence are new effects with this update as they didn't exist before, but due to a bug they still can't roll on weapons at the moment - these could be very valuable when this gets fixed as nobody has them. I added all the bad mods to my vendor for 1000 caps each and half of them are already sold. Mods that I could sell were Bolstering, Vanguard, Regenerating, Glutton and HazMat. Btw. what Enforcer nerf? As far as I know it was not nerfed - instead it was fixed and the first rank works now as intended.

Assassin's is actually useful for preventing self damage.

"Assassin's... You will be never use" AT completely destroying the poor mod 😂

The fact that the mods aren’t to hard to craft, they can be a great way to make a ton of caps easily

i have gotten 2 melee weapons with 15% faster reload on them. i can make over eaters so now i finally have a full set if union power armor with OE and WW-20%.

I logged in to see about this update and lo and behold. My bloodied character runs out of stamina faster than an astmatic on three packs of cigarettes a day. My score boosters are gone. And to top it all, of 300+ scrapped items, I've got a single crafting recipe. A Single One! Oh, and those legendary mods weight a pound each, I'm sure they aren't gonna clog my stashbox harder than a burrito night off.

I unlocked quad and vats after about 20 scraps so I'm happy with my luck, even if I don't get another unlock for a while.

Hardy or rather the 7% explosive resistance is really good for builds like the Nuka Launcher for shooting enemy’s at point blank range without reprocussions. Must have endurance perk for explosive resistance as well.

I don’t know proper value for things but I made good money selling a bloodied mod for 8K and another guy bought my adrenal serums at 500 each and met me another 1500. I haven’t sold all the mods I’ve gotten so far that I don’t want but someone’ll take it off me.

I just came back to the game, but only putting in an hour each day due to being busy this month. I scrapped some stuff I held onto and haven’t gotten any boxes or plans, so I’ll probably be one of those ppl that will not see any boxes and plans until much later. Luckily I don’t need to update much as I already have a full UY SS set that could use one or two updates.

I think belted is better than arms keeper. Especially for heavy gunners. If you carry a lot of weapons, you want the weight reduction clearly, but you generally use a single perk for that. For ammo, that can be 1-3 cards depending on what weapons. Thats a massive difference in your build variety especially given that 2/3 ammo perks are in strength which already has to fight for space with traveling pharmacy and pack rat. Even worse if you need 9 points for heavy gunner.

I have a nonstandard reason I use Life Saving, and one Autostim, armor: my connection is not great. Having a mod of each would let me swap armor pieces out a lot more easily. But I'm sure they're not very popular.

I learned how to craft +25FFR and 50% weapon break. I also learned other crappy effects but im happy so far.

I like the new legendary crafting system. It'll take awhile to unlock all the crafting recipes, but I think it's nice to have something new to do for a while 😄

I prefer weapon weight reduction on 4 armor pieces for a total of 80%, then 1 armor piece with food, drink and chem weight reduction. Simply because it all caps at 90%.

Inertial is a good perk if you are running the auto axe but then again you would have 400+ ap so you wouldn’t need it much

Pretty disappointed with the low drop rates for plans. Scrapped 1500 weight (with max weight reduction on for both categories) of 3 star armor and weapons and I did not learn a single 1 star plan. Learned 10 total 2 and 3 star plans with half of them being useless, so I actually got maybe 5 plans that had any worth to them. I don't know how much scrip and modules it would have been, but it was A LOT.

Just out of curiosity does the scraper perk help with getting legendary mods aswell? I am guessing it dosent but would be nice to have it confirmed

Major video error. Its hard to read the effects because you are facing a bright spot where the effect text is at the top of the screen

i use a set of weightless armor on my PA char... for when i need to get out of PA to craft or do w/e its nice to have a set of armor on with all the effects u can get from it that does not weigh much.. i think a full set is less then 3 or 4 pounds

regenerating IS NOT useless. all of my armor sets including PA utilizes it. combined with another piece of chameleon armor it works wonders. just get back into an undetected state and your health will regenerate for the next battle. the sign of a true tactical warrior is being methodical, stealthy and patient.

I wanted to see if anyone has tried putting quad on gatling laser and gatling plasma, does the effect actually work ?

Since update already managed to craft a Q2525 fixer, Q2525 railway rifle and QE25 elders mark lol it's been nuts and kind of crazy to get god rolls so early so soon, def feel after the nerf Q2525 railway rifle feel better than Q5025 railway use to be the other way around, but the fire rate hit feels a lot worst without the extra 25% fire rate.

I usually have bad luck overall but as a full health build player I unlocked the ability to craft bloodied first lol and then anti armor 😅

So far, I haven't gotten a single box mod, but I unlocked Rapid, Endurance, and Agility, in that order. Doing pretty good so far XD

Weightless does effect your AP a little, and over a full set it can help you save like 15-20 carry weight. Not top tier but not useless and I'd rather have it than some other 3rd star

I have a decent amount of script, and spent 2,000 at the purveyor for weapons and armor. I learned how to craft most of my legendary mods that way.

Resilient is an excellent 3rd star for Bezerker ranged weps.

Hey Turtle, you should revisit weapons dealing damage over time (e.g. plasma, laser weapons) after the recent changes.

Turtle, I’d like to request you test out the scaling benefits of putting +2 endurance on armor pieces with the new perk cards!! I think it keeps stacking so you’d be talking about pretty insane boosts to damage resistance and AP! I think it might honestly be the new meta over AP refresh

Most established players only needed a few more boxes to create God roll armour and a few god roll weapons. They probably have already bought or traded for everything they need already. I feel like the mod box market is going to be strange because nobody is going to spend 60 modules to sell an item for 20 or less. But in a few weeks he will be very rare that someone actually needs to buy one of these mod boxes. The serum market is kind of similar but there is a constant demand of people that messed up their mutations or want to completely change their mutations EG from carnivore to to herbivore. Plus there are people that just like to suppress the negative effects so that keeps the demand up. I've been selling all 19 mutations for a while and they are a decent business. These mod boxes are so expensive to craft that I would only craft one if someone specifically asked for one and promise me good caps. The one or two I have of each mod box I will probably just hold in case Bethesda changes the meta or introduces new guns which I think they will need to do constantly now to keep these modul boxes relevant

I have been grinding expeditions over and over its quicker than grinding westek for the scoreboard and have unlocked plans for 7 lengendary mod plans and have 12 mod boxes so far in two 4 hour sessions.

Saved some crappy one star weapons with 25 25 now I have about 4 bloodied 25 25 after attaching that one star bloodied effect 😂❤ I’m loving this new system tbh and the possibility for unlocking the mods every time I scrap is enticing and highly enjoyable, like a treasure hunt… 🧐 Bit of an issue with the explosive mod though, only had two explosive bobbleheads, finding them is a pain 😅 I will have to be careful with this mod rn

I got the explosive mod when scrapping, but I have two weapons I want to use it on, Pepper shaker or Gatling plasma. I also have an anti armor Gatling gun, but I need to think of a good 2 star effect for it, and I want to get a rapid mod for it and my chainsaw.

I know you mentioned it in regard to explosive but yeah a list of weapons/ legendary effect combinations that don't actually work would be nice. Explosive flamers, reload/ fire rate on bows, Tse alien blaster doesn't work apparently. I'm sure there's more.

I'd say it's worth putting most things up for sale. I sold mutant's for i think 4k caps. 2 assassin's for 2k each to the same person. And even sold crippling for either 500 or 1k, can't remember. About shotguns and enforcer, idk about other shotguns, but my new dual barrel explosive pepper shaker still cripples scorchbeast wings nearly instantly.

I just made my nocturnal power armor 5/5 AP 5/5 sentinel. It took me since beta but it’s done.

Can you use instigators, with last shot, on something like a Bow or Black Powder rifle (That has a single ammo in it's 'clip') to have every shot do mad damage? Because its always the last shot? And if its the last shot thats boosted, it like 1hkos so the next shot will be instigating a new enemy.

Does the Durability 3 star on armor stack? And if so how much? And does it stack with perk cards? So 50% + 5 pieces + a 60% armor durability card means 310% slower armor breaking? and 50% + 5 pieces of armor and a 50% armor breaking reduction perk card means 300% slower breaking guns? If it does or doesn't stack I can free up like 5 or 6 perk points in cards in each Intelligence and Agility with this one 3 star effect on one piece of armor.

Belted massively outclasses arms keeper for me. I run a guass minigun and I also like gatling lasers. This saves me 5 perk points vs the 3 arms keeper would save me (I just carry less guns so it would save me literally none away).

Weightless armour legendary is very good for displaying sets for manikins for conserving stash space 😊

The only reason I run with 2 pieces of armor with -50% Fall Damage is because I got tired of basically stepping of the curb of a sidewalk and dying!! Even when you use your JetPack and barely go high at all, but the worse is at The Mothman Equinox when you get launched into the clouds and come crashing to your death. I’ve ran down hills and stumbled over nothing and died. The way that fall damage in this game is straight up dumb and I got tired of having to respawn, collect my junk and go back to my camp to get my Well Rested bonus back. It’s more of a QoL perk tbh, but I won’t play without it anymore.

Hey Turtle Do the effects of a weapon like the fixer with its 40% piercing add to the anti-armor effect?

Crippling is really good IMO. My main has a 3 Star Fixer with Crippling on it. I crippled a 100lv Glowing Deathclaw last night which repeatedly tried to get up and couldn't move.

Turtle, can you tell me why you say full set en endurance 2 is better than full set of mix poison/fire resist ? I tried and with 3 pois/2 fire, it's better than full endurance... Cryo is useless and ok there is the gain of endurance but I still think that pois/fire mix set is better. Is something I miss to understand ?

Now that I understand how this all works, I can see making and selling mods a VERY lucrative endeavor. The caps will flow... LOL!

given that a modbox for the first star translates to 1500 scip, they are way to "expensive" to sell them for caps in a vendor, secnd star is 3000 scrip and thrid star is 6000 scrip, wich menas if ou sell one of each its 10500 scrip or the equivalent of ~262 3star weaps

Can they put like a cap limit on your vendor so if you hit max the vendor shuts off or stops

Does Lightweight 3 star on weapons reduce only THAT ONE weapons base weight? if so then not thanks, now if it reduced ALL weapons in my inventory's base weight then maybe, MAYBE but i only carry a flamer, sniper, ultralite laser gattlin gun, an axe if I run out of ammo so no need to reduce weapon weights unless its on my Excavators power armor for carrying loot when over encumbered.

Great video, thanks! Would Endurance win over Powered as a second star? I feel that my AP regen is worse than before the patch (And I dont mean the AP to 0 bug, but in general)

"assasins you wil never use" -- it's good for expeditions as many/most enemies are human.

Already have anti armour, rapid and quad unlocked to cfaft 😊

Is it just me, or is something wrong in power armor with VATS using much more fusion core per shot. I can blow through multiple cores way faster than before.

On ps5 I haven't yet received a mod and noticed some players who actively went best camp haven't all noticed they can't sell from their vendor, at least I can't access their vendors.

instigating+lastshot = 💥

So a full set of endurance with natural resistance equipped will give more poison resistance than poisoners?

I'll be sure to remember these if I ever find/get one. Maybe in a few months time lol

CAREFUL: If you have legendary modules in your inventory and put your scrap in the scrap box, they WILL get scrapped.

Explosive doesn’t work with BERTHA, just an FYI

Hello Turtle. I have several mods with a healing rate. What does every armor part bring me with this effect?

First mod recipe I unlocked was intelligence for armor. Crafted a few and put one up for sale at 5k caps. Had several visitors over a few hours I was online. But no one bought it. Not sure what's up with that. Had a few "useless" ones set at 1k caps and no one bought those either. Not sure who is buying legendary mod boxes at 20k but it wasn't on the servers I was on. Lol. My adrenal mutation serums sold out quickly at 500 each though. Guessing they are selling quickly due to being a crafting ingredient.

60 modules for a 3rd star is crazy.

my new QE pepper shaker rocks! explosive gatling plasmas are back! woo hoo! ❤❤❤

whats so good about gun or armor weight reduction? Does this one legendary effect reduce ALL weapons/armor in your inventory? Or is it just THAT one gun/armor? If its just that one gun then you save what up to 50ibs less in your inventory? Do you have to have that gun in your hand for it to reduce the gun/guns weight or you just need one gun in your inventory to reduce ALL your guns weights in your inventory? Is the same with armor weight reduction legendary effect?

I lucky to get Explosive from trade, but very bad choice to use it on Harpoon gun. E-Harpoon is a joke, Projectile still a harpoon that explode on contact. Damage is low unless it hit on weak point and damage is decrease lower than half at long distance.

Already sold a quad mod box for 5k caps In game recommends 1k sale price but I got a feeling this will sell very well

I found a 50% hit chance for the awesome price of 4000 caps. Now I finally completed my bloodied plasma caster, 50% vats hit chance and 25% less action points 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

dont understand some people already have all the mods, and I never get any plan or box, I have now 5 plans but I also scrapped over 1000 weapons already which I stock up before the update

Is the +3 luck mod even exist in fallout right now? Cause I haven't seen a single legendary weapon AT ALL that has +3 luck on it, also haven't seen anyone in game selling any, can't even find any online for sale, nothing.

I am a melee character. Yes, more power attack damage is #1 for auto-melee. But NO, faster swing speed outclasses it on traditional weapons and it's no contest.

+ 3 intelligence and +3 luck are not dropping

I got the explosive plan…now I need a plan for explosive bobble heads!😭

Kind of insane all of us on PlayStation have to put up with this game crashing constantly running expeditions. I’m still playing put it’s wearing on me now more than ever with the legendary grind

Excellent video! So much great information! Thank you!

Anyone else missing fuel ammo after logging in? I put about 2k fuel ammo on my character and twice now I noticed when I logged in I was down to only 200 fuel

Which mid would be good for the enclave flamer plasma rifle?

Hi Turtle. Can u make a video on gauss shotgun? I found the secret to make it great again. It isnt nerfed. The damage it losed in this patch it's the damage it takes if u make it DUBLE explosive. Now it MUST be played DUBLE explosive, so you can snipe the enemy again 🎉🎉

I generally sell bolstering and unyielding for 3000 caps. I will probably sell anti and bloody for 5k as well once I learn it. I sell mid tier for 2k. Low tier 500 to 1k. Garbage tier I sell for 300 caps. That's how I price mine. I don't mind pricing for resellers.

What's with VATS? I fire a heavy gun one time and all my stamina is gone (gatling gun). And I'm running out quick with automatics. These are tried and true builds. Seems like I'm losing stamina 1000 percent faster.

Definitely disagree with your assessment of the FDC perk. It saves you traveling pharmacy AND thru hikers-that’s 6 perk points in two really, really important categories.

I need some help here, I´ve been scraping all the legendaries I found and didn´t get a single one Mod box, so I proceed to buy it wenever I found, If I buy a ModBox can I craft the ones I buy it or only the ones that I´ve scrap it?

casually bought 2 vats optimized mods for a total of 4k nbd (not freaking out)

Advise please?? I have an AA enclave flamer, I have just put 50% slower breaking on because it breaks ridiculously fast, but for 2 star should I get rapid? Or explosive? (I don't currently use demo expert as I've got all science perks on). Thanks in advance

Just got my first legendary mod. 1 star................ Took 2 days. Bethesda, WTAF??

Mr turtle I have an explosive laser rifle with the beam splitter and useless 1st and 3rd star. I want to add a 2 shot mod to it, would this be wise or would I be better with quad/aa?

what's the better option for 2 pieces of armor with acrobat?

Full health commando!

FYI, I put expolsive on an enclave flamer - it seems to do nothing.

I just got a deathclaw gauntlet with the three star 15 reload speed, I don’t know what’s going on
