==One Wasteland==
* With today's update, we're excited to introduce One Wasteland to Fallout 76, which allows creatures to dynamically adjust their levels up or down on the fly to more closely match each player they encounter.
** If multiple players all come across the same enemy at the same time, its level will simultaneously rise for the higher-level players and drop for the lower-level players.
* In addition to their levels, each creature's damage, health, and resistances, as well as the loot they drop and the XP they award, will also better match each player.
** This means that all players who are adventuring together can have an impact on any given combat encounter, even if there is a large level gap between them.
** While creatures will still have minimum and maximum levels, such as a max of level 50 in The Forest, they are now much more flexible overall.
* One Wasteland opens up more opportunities to adventure anywhere in Appalachia, whether alone or with your friends. It also smooths out some of the early game bumps for new players, allows higher-level players to get max-level loot in previously lower-level regions, and should offer more consistent combat encounters for everyone.
* Catch even more details by reading our recent One Wasteland Preview article on Fallout.com.
==New Season, Board, & Rewards==
* Join Armor Ace and the Power Patrol in their march against the oppressive Subjugator and his army of Red Viper minions during Fallout 76 Season 2, which begins today!
** Season 2 brings the all-new "Armor Ace" S.C.O.R.E.board to the game, featuring 100 ranks for you to achieve during the next 10 weeks.
** We've added a host of rewards that you will unlock as you rank up, including new Power Armor paints, Armor and Weapon Skins, themed cosmetics, C.A.M.P. items, in-game currencies, Perk Card Packs, and more.
* We've made several adjustments this Season that you may want to keep in mind as you dive in:
** Rank-ups will be purchasable immediately, so those who would like to rank up using Atoms can join the fight to crush the Red Vipers starting today.
** We've implemented some new Daily and Weekly Challenges, such as Daily Ops themed Challenges, to offer you even more day-to-day variety as you rank up.
** We're also adding more Weeklies to the Challenge lineup so you have more flexibility to progress on your schedule.
** Finally, we've made several of last Season's rewards, like Lunchboxes, the Ammo Converter, available at Gold Bullion vendors so players who missed them have another opportunity to unlock them.
* Head to the Seasons page on Fallout.com and read our recent Season 2 Preview article to get more information about Season 2, as well as a look at the rewards that will be up for grabs.
==Daily Ops==
Put your skills to the test by taking on instanced, randomized, and repeatable encounters called "Daily Ops." Daily Ops are fairly challenging, and so we recommend them for characters who are level 50+.
* Our first Game Mode for Daily Ops is called "Uplink," which will require you to secure a series of Uplinks to track down and destroy enemies that are threats to Appalachia.
** In Daily Ops, you'll square off against enemies from a single faction who are affected by a unique "mutation," which will make them deadlier and more challenging to take down.
** Complete your objectives, eliminate the enemy threat, and you will be rewarded for your efforts to make Appalachia a safe place for everyone.
* To join a Daily Op, open the Map screen and find the new World Activity tracker we've added in the lower-left corner.
** Select a Daily Op from the list to learn more about it, including which location, enemies, and mutations you'll face.
** Enter Daily Ops directly from the tracker by clicking the "Join" button.
** You can take on Daily Ops alone or in a team of up to four other players.
* Each day, Daily Ops will feature a fresh combination of location, enemy faction, and enemy mutations to keep you on your toes.
** Locations: The Burrows, The Burning Mine, Valley Galleria, or Vault 94
** Enemy Factions: Super Mutants, Blood Eagles, or Robots
** Enemy Mutations:
** Piercing Gaze: This mutation is always applied to enemies the "Uplink" Daily Ops mode, and gives them greatly enhanced perception of players.
** Volatile: Enemies will explode on death
** Active Camouflage: Enemies will be cloaked when not attacking
** Resilient: Enemies can only be killed by a melee attack
** Freezing Touch: Enemy attacks will freeze players
* Since you will be facing constant combat and deadly threats during your Operations, we've reduced the condition damage taken by your weapons and armor by 50% while in a Daily Op.
* Like the event "A Colossal Problem," creatures in Daily Ops will drop ammo based on the weapons you're using when you take them down. This will help keep your ammo reserves topped off through lots of combat.
* You can repeat Daily Ops as often as you'd like each day, and you will receive a base set of rewards every time you complete one. However, there are three additional reward tiers that you can reach once per day by completing a Daily Op within certain time limits:
** Initiate Tier: 16 minutes or less
** Paladin Tier: 12 minutes or less
** Elder Tier: 8 minutes or less
** The higher the tier you achieve, the higher your chances to get better rewards, including more XP, larger amounts of in-game currencies, legendary items, and even brand-new items like the War Glaive, which is a customizable two-handed melee weapon.
* After finishing a Daily Op, you'll be able to view an Operation Report, which shows you how fast you managed to complete it, which reward tiers you reached, and a list of the rewards you earned (except for XP and currencies).
==Legendary Perks==
Legendary Perks are new high-level Perk Cards for players who have reached level 50+, which will help you add even more power and build diversity to your characters.
* We've added a new "Legendary Perks" button to the top of the normal Perk Card Menu, which you can use to access and modify your Legendary Perk Slots and Cards.
* You will unlock your first Legendary Perk Slot at level 50, and up to 6 slots in total at certain level milestones after that: 75, 100, 150, 200, and 300.
** If you already have high-level characters, they will immediately have access to one Legendary Perk Slot for each of the above milestones they've reached.
** For example, a level 250 character will have access to 5 Legendary Perk slots, and will gain a 6th slot at level 300.
** One Legendary Perk Card can be equipped to each slot, and you can unequip them at any time in exchange for 1 Perk Coin (more on Perk Coins below).
* Legendary Perk Slots are account-wide, and will be available to all of your characters as soon as you unlock them.
** Even your characters below level 50 will be able to equip Legendary Perks in these slots, which gives them access to more power at an earlier stage of the game than your higher-level characters had at that level.
* With Legendary Perks, we're introducing "Perk Coins," which you can use to increase the power of your Legendary Perk Cards by upgrading them.
** Earn Perk Coins by scrapping your unused normal Perk Cards. Each Perk Card you scrap will grant you 2 Perk Coins per rank.
** For example: When you scrap a rank 1 Perk Card, you'll receive 2 Perk Coins, and scrapping a rank 3 Perk Card will award 6 Perk Coins.
** Each Legendary Perk Card can be upgraded up to three times, at a price of 50, 100, and 150 Perk Coins to reach ranks 2, 3, and 4, respectively.
** While Legendary Perk Slots you've unlocked are account-wide, your Legendary Perk Selections and upgrades are separate for each of your characters.
** To help give your Perk Coin collection a boost, we've added a "Become Legendary" Challenge to the Character Challenge Menu, which awards 50 Perk Coins to characters who reach level 50.
** Please note: If your characters are already level 50+, this Challenge will already be completed for them the next time you log in, and the 50 Perk Coin reward will be added to your Perk Coin total automatically.
==Design updates==
===General===
* Fast Travel: It is now free to Fast Travel to Foundation and Crater.
===Combat===
* Bonus Damage: We've changed the way that damage bonuses are calculated so that they now apply additively instead of multiplicatively.
** Please Note: While stacking damage bonuses will now have a smaller overall effect on your damage output than before, these changes will make the resulting damage much more predictable and allow for future improvements. This is very important for the health of the game going forward. It will also create better opportunities for us to make smarter and more effective balance changes.
** We are still evaluating feedback we gathered on these changes from the PTS, but we also welcome your thoughts on how different weapons and builds feel after today’s update so that we can make additional adjustments in the future.
===Items===
* Alien Blaster: Damage increased by 30%.
* Legendary Weapons: The Assassin's legendary attribute now applies its bonus damage to human NPCs.
* Secret Service Armor: Plans for Light and Ultra-Light Limb Mods for Secret Service Armor have been added, and they are now purchasable from Regs in Vault 79.
* Shishkebab: Now deals Fire damage instead of Energy damage.
===Perks===
* Modern Renegade: Increased Modern Renegade's chance to cripple limbs from 2%/3%/4% to 4%/8%/12%.
* Tank Killer: Pistols now benefit from the Tank Killer Perk Card.
===User Interface===
* Public Teams: We've renamed the "Building" team to "Casual" and removed the Casual team bonus. In its place, we've added a "Daily Ops" team type, which offers bonus XP for completing Daily Ops (+25% bonus XP to start, +100% bonus XP for a fully bonded team).
** We did this in part because it is not possible to build in Public Teammates' C.A.M.P.s., and partly because most players were using the Building team the way we had intended Casual to be used anyway.
** Removing the Casual team option, it made room for us to add the new Daily Ops team type, which we feel players will find more useful following today's update.
===World===
* Vault 94: Is now accessible during world exploration in Adventure Mode and Private Worlds.
* Vault 51: We've added a new no-C.A.M.P. zone around Vault 51's exterior in preparation for future content.
