* Fasnacht Parade: By popular demand, this Seasonal Event is returning for a full week starting May 25, and there are plenty of new Fasnacht masks up for grabs.
* Item Naming Updates: We’ve made improvements to the way your weapons and armors are automatically named when you apply new mods and skins.
* Backpack Updates: Changing your Backpack appearance is now as simple as applying a skin, and you can now apply them to Small Backpacks, too!

* PS4: 1.3.1.26
* Xbox: 1.3.1.26
==Customize your allies==
Starting today, you can now share your wardrobe with your Allies and swap their outfits to your heart’s content with Ally Customization.
* When interacting with an Ally in your C.A.M.P., a new “customize” option will now appear that you can use to change their clothing.
** Outfits, Headwear, Costumes, Armor—If you can wear it, then so can your Ally! The only current exceptions are Power Armor and Weapons.
** Anything you dress your Ally in is purely cosmetic. They will not receive any buffs or bonuses from the apparel they wear.
* Additionally, when viewing another player’s Ally, its name will be adjusted to include the name of the C.A.M.P. owner, e.g.: ’s Ally.
* Please note that scrapping an Ally Station will revert that Ally to their default outfit. Allies will also appear to be in their default outfit if they are in an instance with you.
==Hunt for the treasure hunter==
Mole Miners are searching for riches around Appalachia, and you can hunt them down to claim their loot for yourself in a new series of limited-time “Hunt for the Treasure Hunter” events we’re introducing with Update 19.
===Treasure hunter mole miners===
* Use your keen tracking senses to hunt down Treasure Hunter Mole Miners to collect their Mole miner pails, which contain all of the loot they’ve been hoarding.
** Treasure Hunter Mole Miners are legendary creatures, and you will hear them when they’re nearby.
* Treasure Hunter Mole Miners can drop rewards from one of three different tiers: Dusty Mole Miner Pails (low), Mole Miner Pails (medium), and Ornate Mole Miner Pails (high).
** The higher quality the Pail, the better chances for rare loot, including Outfits, Mounted Head Plans, a new Backpack Plan, and the Marine Armor Helmet Plan.
** Pails can be traded and sold to other players, but cannot be sold to NPC vendors.
===Craft your own mole miner pails===
* While a Treasure Hunter event is live, Vendors around Appalachia will sell Empty Mole Miner Pails in exchange for Caps.
** Use Empty Pails, along with a few additional materials, to craft full Mole Miner Pails of low, medium, or high-quality.
** You can give or sell crafted Pails to other players, or keep them for yourself.
===Head to the Ash Heap on May 21!===
* The first Hunt for the Treasure Hunter event will take place from May 21 – 25 in the Ash Heap region of Appalachia.
* Future Hunt for the Treasure Hunter events will each occur in a different region.
==Fasnacht Parade marches back to Helvetia==
Starting next week, you can travel to Helvetia to take part in the Fasnacht Seasonal Event by helping the local Protectrons prepare for the town's annual celebration and parade.
* Help the bots by hanging decorations, gathering ingredients for a feast, or playing musical instruments, among other activities, before the timer expires.
** If you and your event mates complete the preparations in time, the bots will line up at the center of town to begin the parade.
* Successfully guide the marchers to the end of their parade route, and you will be rewarded with loot!
** The more marchers who survive, the higher your chances at rare loot, which may include Fasnacht-themed C.A.M.P. plans and a chance to earn a fancy Fasnacht mask.
** We’ve added a number of festive new masks this year, and adjusted their drop rates following community feedback. While some are still less common than others, they should drop more often this time.
** You can also trade your Fasnacht Masks to other players, if you wish.
* Fasnacht Parade will begin every hour at the top of the hour starting on May 25. The event will last for a full week, so you'll have plenty of chances join in the celebration!
==Design updates==
===Automatic item name improvements===
With this update, we’ve improved how the game automatically names your weapons and armors based on their mods, legendary attributes, and Atomic Shop paints.
* Going forward, automatically generated names will appear in a much more consistent order, and they will reliably include an item’s main attributes.
** Additionally, Atomic Shop paint and skin names no longer overwrite the item’s primary legendary effect name.
* Items should now generally follow this naming convention: Primary Legendary Attribute Name + Atomic Shop Cosmetic Name + Mod Name + Weapon Name
** If you have a legendary Gatling Gun with the Black Knight paint and a Prime Receiver, for example, its automatically generated name should now be: Anti-Armor Black Knight Prime Gatling Gun
* Keep in mind that you can still give your items custom names, which will override their automatically generated names.
* Please note: Given the many combinations that are possible through all the different mods, legendary effects, Atomic Shop paints, and item types, there may cases where new item names appear incorrect.
** For example, certain elements may appear out of order, or might be missing from the name.
** These are visual issues, and all your mods should still function correctly. Please let us know if you spot any naming bugs on your gear after today, and we will squash them.
===Backpack appearance updates===
We’ve improved Backpack customization so that you can now apply different appearances to your Backpacks as skins—no more crafting required!
* Head to an Armor Workbench and use the modify menu to swap the appearance of your existing Backpack with any skins you’ve unlocked through quests, events, or the Atomic Shop.
** Skins can now be applied to Small Backpacks, as well for those who have not yet unlocked the normal Backpack Plan by completing the “Order of the Tadpole” quest.
** You can apply skins to your existing Backpacks, as well as any new ones you craft.
==Art and animation==
* BBQ Grills: Get hungry! When using a BBQ Grill, your character will now appear to flip and grill some tasty steaks.
* Grognak’s Throne: We’ve added a new animation that will play when sitting in Grognak’s Throne so that you can survey your land with the royal confidence.
==Items==
* Liberty Prime Power Armor: If you’re a strong silent type, you may be pleased to know that we’ve added an alternate version of the Liberty Prime Power Armor helmet that will not play voice lines while you’re wearing it.
** Players who own the Liberty Prime Power Armor can now craft the silent version of the helmet at a Power Armor Station.
==Nuclear Winter==
===Limited time "survivors" challenges - Unlock themed cosmetics!===
* We’ve added 8 Nuclear Winter Challenges that you can complete to earn new “Survivors” themed cosmetic rewards starting today, and lasting until 7:00 p.m. ET on June 11.
** One new challenge will appear in the Character Challenge menu each day until all 8 are available, and they will remain available until the end of the event.
* You can earn the first reward with 150 Overseer XP, and the last with 2,500 Overseer XP. All others will each require 2,000 Overseer XP.
** Overseer XP you earn will roll over from one Challenge to the next, but they must be completed one at a time and in order.
* As you complete each Challenge, you’ll be able to claim new themed rewards, like new furniture for your C.A.M.P., “Survivor’s Denim” and Ghillie Suit outfits, as well as skins for Nuclear Winter’s newest weapons: The Bow, Cattle Prod, and Gauss Shotgun.
* You can learn more about this event directly from ZAX and preview the rewards by reading our latest ZAX Transmission article on Fallout.com.
