The '''alien blaster''' is a rare [[Fallout 76 weapons|weapon]] in ''[[Fallout 76]]''.

==Characteristics==
The alien blaster is a pistol with decent damage, but it is impractical due to its very rare ammo. A fusion mag mod will convert the weapon to fire [[Fusion cell (Fallout 76)|fusion cells]], but will reduce the weapon's damage output.

The weapon is of clear extraterrestrial design with its curved sleek forms, though it does resemble a pistol. The whole weapon is made of a combination of a steel-like metal, orange and red plastic-like furnishings, with highlights of blue pulsing energy. Unlike a human weapon, the blaster ends with a cone-shaped muzzle with no recognizable barrel. On the side is a button that opens a circular blue ringed cap. When the cap is open, [[Alien blaster round (Fallout 76)|alien blaster rounds]] can be loaded into the weapon. The two pronged sights are lined up through a hole with no front sight.

== Variants ==
* [[The V.A.T.S. Unknown]]

==Location==
* At the [[toxic pond and wreckage]], inside a broken safe, submerged in a pool of [[toxic water]]. 
* [[Berkeley Springs station]]

==Notes==
* Ammunition for the alien blaster exists southeast of [[Black Mountain Ordnance Works]], at TNT dome #2. The plans to convert the weapon to [[Fusion cell (Fallout 76)|fusion cells]] exists here also. 
* Like other ammunition drops in the game, the [[Alien blaster round (Fallout 76)|alien blaster rounds]] at TNT dome #2 will periodically respawn, allowing for replenishing the supply without converting the weapon to fusion cells. 
* Affected by the [[Grounded]] mutation.
* Prior to [[One Wasteland For All|One Wasteland]], the Alien Blaster provided damage of 15, 19, 22 and 25 at levels 20, 30, 40, and 50, respectively.
