Defiance Has Fallen is a main quest in Fallout 76. It is part of the Brotherhood of Steel quest line.
Background[]
Years ago, the Brotherhood in Appalachia sent out a cryptic message saying that Defiance has fallen. Nobody outside the Brotherhood knew what that meant - it is up to Vault Dwellers to figure out the mystery.
Quick walkthrough[]
- After completing Coming to Fruition, the quest can be started by reading the "Fort Defiance" entry on Abbie's terminal in Abbie's bunker.
- It can also be started before reaching this point and finishing the Free States quests.
- Travel to Camp Venture and read the Letter to Tommy. The letter is located inside the command center and requires the command center password to access.
