## Описание

Today the next major patch for Fallout 76 is hitting the Public Test Server (PTS). We’re excited for you to dive into the next update.

Kicking things off with some mischief, you can experience the return of Mischief Night at its new location in Rapidan Camp. On top of that, we’ve added Legendary Crafting to go along with some combat rebalance we can’t wait to get your thoughts on.

And this is just the beginning! Later this month, we’ll be adding the opportunity to build your own Caravan Company as part of Milepost Zero. We’ll have more news on what you can expect to see in that adventure soon.

The PTS is available for testing right now and as always, you can provide feedback on your experience in our Discord.

#### “A BUMP IN THE ROAD” - STARTING OFF YOUR OWN CARAVAN COMPANY

Coming soon to the PTS!

#### MISCHIEF NIGHT

Mischief Night returns. The event has been revamped and is now located in Rapidan Camp. You should still feel the fun and chaotic nature of Mischief Night while enjoying its new Halloween themed rewards. This Public Event will be on rotation with our new Daily Ops maps, so make sure to read on for our full Public Event + Daily Ops testing schedule.

#### LEGENDARY CRAFTING

We have been exploring a new approach to Legendary Crafting and we wanted to give you an opportunity to get your hands on it to provide some early feedback. Our intention with the changes mentioned below is to give you a way to have more direct control over the Legendary Mods that are on your Legendary items. We believe this system will require time and iteration to get it right. So, while we’re providing this to you to test now, it won’t be released to the Live game until we believe that it’s ready.

Your feedback during this PTS period will be critical to how this develops. Please share your thoughts in our Discord server or on the Fallout 76 subreddit.

Before we dive into how this version of Legendary Crafting works let’s introduce you to Legendary Particles, our new crafting component. In this new system, you’ll use Legendary Particles to craft Legendary Mods and spend Legendary Modules to swap them onto Legendary items.

Legendary Particles can be obtained by scrapping Legendary items at your workbench or trading with players. These Legendary Particles can also be stored in your Scrap Stash.

We're still evaluating how we want to manage Legendary Cores moving forward.

Now let us explain how this system works.

Before you can start swapping Legendary Mods onto your items, you’ll need to obtain your desired mod in one of two ways:

- Trading for the mod with another player;
- Scrapping Legendary items with your desired mod on it.

Every time you scrap a Legendary item you will obtain Legendary Particles as well as have a chance to learn one of the Legendary mods on that item. After obtaining a mod plan from an item, you can head over to your Tinker Bench to craft it by spending Legendary Particles.

Once crafted, you can either trade that mod with another player or head over to your Workbench to swap it onto a Legendary item.

Please Note When you swap a Legendary Mod onto an item that item becomes character-bound which makes it untradeable and not droppable in the world. Each time you replace a mod on an item, the cost will increase.

As a result of this update, we’re also relaxing the Legendary Mod restrictions on weapons. We’re excited to see you explore this system and find new, exciting mod combinations.

We appreciate that this is a large change to how you interact with Legendary items, but we’re eager for you to test this system and share your feedback. Tell us what you think about the UI/UX or how does it feel to obtain and craft Legendary Mods. We want your thoughts on all aspects of this so join us in our Discord and share your thoughts!

#### BEST BUILDS

Milepost Zero will also be introducing a new social update called Best Builds. Best Builds is a system that allows players to submit, visit, and rate submitted C.A.M.P.s. Best Builds will be shared and populated thought out wasteland for all players across all Adventure Mode servers to see. You will be able to visit these amazing creations and enjoy the comforts, design, and unique tastes the builder has in store for its visitors. While visiting, if you happen to appreciate the builders C.A.M.P., you can show your support by leaving a 'Like'. We hope this allows our dedicated player builders an opportunity to show off their creations as well as inspire other players to create and submit their own Best Builds.

##### SUBMITTING YOUR CAMP

Once you have a C.A.M.P. that you would like to show off to the wasteland, you can submit your C.A.M.P. though the Best Builds Submission option. This is found by opening the 'C.A.M.P. Slots' list on the Paper Map and selecting the C.A.M.P. you wish to submit. Once you've entered the submission window, you'll be able to take a few photos and tag your C.A.M.P. with the appropriate identifiers, to help make it stand out from the crowd. Once you're happy with how your C.A.M.P. is represented, you can submit your Best Build. The Best Build will be added to list of other player created Best Builds and be populated throughout the Adventure Mode servers.

Once populated players will be able to visit and Like your Best Build.

If you happen to make changes to your Best Build, you can easily resubmit the newly remodeled C.A.M.P. without losing any Likes previously earned. You can resubmit you Best Build by going to the 'Manage Best Builds' option also found activated 'C.A.M.P. Slots' list on the paper map.

##### VISIT

Upon your travels in the wasteland, you will notice a few new locations with a blue ribbon on the paper map and on the compass. These are our player created Best Builds. You will be able to fast travel to these C.A.M.P.s the same as you would any other C.A.M.P.. While visiting, please take time to sit down, relax, and enjoy the experience the builder has instore for you. Don't delay on checking out a C.A.M.P. that piques your interest. Best Builds rotate in and out every hour.

##### RATE

If you happen to find a Best Builds that you fancy, feel free to show your support to the builder by giving them a Like. You can 'Like' a Best Build by going to the Best Build icon on the paper map and selecting 'Like'. Giving the builder a Like will help show other players that this C.A.M.P. is indeed a Best Build.

#### COMBAT REBALANCE

The Milepost Zero update continues the work set out in Skyline Valley to update our combat systems. This patch includes changes to sources of Fire and Poison damage as well as how the damage over time (DoT) effect works.

Fire and Poison damage will typically include a DoT effect, with Fire damage trending towards shorter durations and higher Damage Per Second (DPS), with Poison trending towards longer durations and higher overall damage.

##### GENERAL

- Made an adjustment to damage modifiers for creature weak points. This will result in additional damage dealt to creatures when weapons with lower damage per hit are used.
- Damage Over Time effects now scale with bonuses to weapon damage.
- Addressed a series of inconsistencies with how certain damage effects (primarily Damage Over Time) were dealing incorrect damage types or were un-typed damage without a corresponding resistance.
- Addressed an issue where Damage Over Time effects dealt by players would not scale to match the creature’s level.
- Fixed an issue where certain effects such as Damage Over Time and the Vampire’s legendary mod could stack when applied multiple times simultaneously on a single target. This most commonly occurred with Shotguns, but could also occur when using the Two Shot legendary mod or the Mulit-Shot Cremator mod in V.A.T.S.

- Mischief Night
- Daily Ops – Atlantic City Community Center
- Mischief Night

#### KNOWN ISSUES

##### MISCHIEF NIGHT

##### COMBAT REBALANCE

- Mobs - Mobs with damage reduction on certain body parts, such as Assaultrons Heads or Mirelurk Shells, have significantly higher damage reduction than expected. In some cases, this causes various weapons to display negative damage numbers.
