To start the event, speak to the [[Master of Ceremonies]] in [[Helvetia]] at the top of the real-life hour (at XX:00). Once started, the [[Resident (Vault 76)|residents]] involved in the event must find five of the randomly-assigned protectron marchers in the town. Each protectron will provide a task corresponding to their profession, and each task must be completed before the parade can begin. After a task is finished, the relevant marcher will walk to the center of town, equip its Fasnacht mask, and wait for the others to arrive. The possible protectrons and corresponding tasks are as follows:
{{section|FO76}}
 
  +
* [[Cheerful Beekeeper]]: Exterminate the [[honey beast]]s which are attacking the Honey Haus.
  +
* [[Happy Candlemaker]]: Donate [[beeswax]] from the Honey Haus hives to the Candlemaker (0/10)
  +
* [[Gleeful Butcher]]: Donate [[intestine]]s from animals at the Butcher's Cooler (0/12)
  +
* [[Jolly Baker]]: Donate [[radtoad egg]]s from the stream to the Pantry (0/20)
  +
* [[Convivial Historian]]: Bring [[Porcelain stein|old Fasnacht steins]] to the museum for analysis (0/12)
  +
* [[Joyous Musician]]: Play some music onstage.
  +
* [[Jubilant Decorator]]: Decorate the barn.
  +
* [[Merry Woodsman]]: Add [[Wood (Fallout 76)|wood]] to the bonfire (0/50)
   
  +
Once all five tasks are completed and all five protectrons assemble in the center of town, the Master of Ceremonies rushes over to join them and take point as parade leader, and the parade begins its route. First, the group walks east down Pickens Rd. to the front of Freyja's Haus, the yellow-painted restaurant, where it is attacked by swarms of [[radtoad]]s. After the creatures are eliminated, the group moves north over the wooden bridge toward the Cheese Haus. The marchers stop in the middle of the field as [[Huntersville super mutant|super mutants]], [[Mutant hound (Fallout 76)|mutant hounds]], and [[Huntersville super mutant#Super mutant suicider|super mutant suiciders]] charge the group. Once the mutant assault has stopped, the marchers continue south. Finally, when the parade stops in front of the chapel, hordes of [[Stingwing (Fallout 76)|stingwings]] and [[Wolf (Fallout 76)|wolves]] attack. A legendary [[megasloth]] also spawns near the post office. The enemies spawn and attack when the music played by the Master of Ceremonies abruptly slows and stops before recovering, then repeats once the attack is over and the parade resumes.

After the enemies have been killed, the Fasnacht bonfire must be lit. At least one protectron marcher needs to be kept alive in order to complete the event, with more survivors netting greater [[#Rewards|rewards]]. The participants will also be granted a random [[Fallout 76 legendary effects|legendary]] weapon or armor piece.

==Notes==
  +
Fasnacht Day's return in 2020 was initially delayed due to a bug introduced with the release of ''[[Wastelanders]]''. The event was originally slated to be active from May 25 - June 1, 2020, but a bug prevented small creatures from spawning at normal rates on public servers. Since [[intestine]]s, dropped by small animals, could not be obtained but were needed for the [[Gleeful Butcher]]'s parade task, the event could not be completed.
  +
  +
The event was disabled on the morning of May 25, having only briefly been active before being delayed. The issue was not present during the 2019 version of the event and the critters bug was confirmed to have been introduced with ''Wastelanders''.<ref>[https://www.reddit.com/r/fo76/comments/gqdpw1/ummm_no_small_animals_are_spawning/frs8aee/?context=1000 BethesdaGameStudios_ on Reddit]</ref> Fasnacht Day was eventually re-enabled without major issue on May 27, with an extension of the festivities until June 9.

Detailed walkthrough

To start the event, speak to the Master of Ceremonies in Helvetia at the top of the real-life hour (at XX:00). Once started, the residents involved in the event must find five of the randomly-assigned protectron marchers in the town. Each protectron will provide a task corresponding to their profession, and each task must be completed before the parade can begin. After a task is finished, the relevant marcher will walk to the center of town, equip its Fasnacht mask, and wait for the others to arrive. The possible protectrons and corresponding tasks are as follows:

Once all five tasks are completed and all five protectrons assemble in the center of town, the Master of Ceremonies rushes over to join them and take point as parade leader, and the parade begins its route. First, the group walks east down Pickens Rd. to the front of Freyja's Haus, the yellow-painted restaurant, where it is attacked by swarms of radtoads. After the creatures are eliminated, the group moves north over the wooden bridge toward the Cheese Haus. The marchers stop in the middle of the field as super mutants, mutant hounds, and super mutant suiciders charge the group. Once the mutant assault has stopped, the marchers continue south. Finally, when the parade stops in front of the chapel, hordes of stingwings and wolves attack. A legendary megasloth also spawns near the post office. The enemies spawn and attack when the music played by the Master of Ceremonies abruptly slows and stops before recovering, then repeats once the attack is over and the parade resumes.

After the enemies have been killed, the Fasnacht bonfire must be lit. At least one protectron marcher needs to be kept alive in order to complete the event, with more survivors netting greater rewards. The participants will also be granted a random legendary weapon or armor piece.

Notes

Fasnacht Day's return in 2020 was initially delayed due to a bug introduced with the release of Wastelanders. The event was originally slated to be active from May 25 - June 1, 2020, but a bug prevented small creatures from spawning at normal rates on public servers. Since intestines, dropped by small animals, could not be obtained but were needed for the Gleeful Butcher's parade task, the event could not be completed.

The event was disabled on the morning of May 25, having only briefly been active before being delayed. The issue was not present during the 2019 version of the event and the critters bug was confirmed to have been introduced with Wastelanders.[1] Fasnacht Day was eventually re-enabled without major issue on May 27, with an extension of the festivities until June 9.

Behind the scenes

  • Fastnacht is an actual annual carnival celebrated by Swiss and German people while traditionally wearing masks that represent demons, jesters, witches and animals. In Helvetia, West Virginia it is normally celebrated once per year on the first weekend after Fat Tuesday,[2] and concludes with the burning of an effigy in a bonfire, without any robots or megasloths.[3]
  • The music played during the Fasnacht parade is the 2004 One More Pils instrumental exercise composed by Andy Vale and licensed from APM Music. While the original piece is 1:10 minutes long, the version used in-game is comprised of two 15 second clips that endlessly repeat one after another.[4]
