The backpack is an armor item in Fallout 76, introduced in the Wild Appalachia update.
Contents
Characteristics
The base Carry Weight increases with the level of the backpack, maxing out at an additional 60 Carry Weight at level 50. The backpack provides no benefit when entering a suit of power armor, as the equipment is removed and stored in the player's inventory automatically. Despite having a set value, backpacks cannot be dropped or sold.
After completing the Order of the Tadpole, the standard backpack is automatically unlocked for crafting and plans for modifications are available for purchase from the Possum vending machine. It can also be outfitted with a variety of functionality boosting mods, including options for increased Carry Weight, Resistance to Physical, Energy or Radiation damage, or slower food spoilage.
Backpack flair
Cosmetic attachments can be added to hang from backpacks, on the left, right, or both sides.
Locations
- Small backpack, which carries half the carry capacity of the standard backpack, are found in the overseer's cache during the main quest line at the Morgantown Airport terminal.
- A low-level standard backpack is initially given as a quest reward for completing the Order of the Tadpole quest. It is provided with the Pioneer Scouts Tadpole material mod. After completion, backpacks can be crafted at any armor workbench.
Crafting
Crafting of the backpack is unlocked after completing the Order of the Tadpole.
