Mole Miners are searching for riches around Appalachia, and you can hunt them down to claim their loot for yourself in a new series of limited-time "Hunt for the Treasure Hunter" events we’re introducing with Update 19.fallout.bethesda.net

The Hunt for the Treasure Hunter event is a series of limited-time community events for Fallout 76.

Overview[]

Every now and then, treasure-hunting mole miners will appear all across Appalachia. Taking down these mole miners will cause them to drop mole miner pails. The treasure hunters can appear in any location where hostile enemies spawn, and are not reserved to just mole miner spawns.

These pails can be either dusty, regular, or ornate, and the rewards get better as the pail tier gets higher. New pail variants were introduced with the release of One Wasteland For All containing new rewards. The older variants from Wastelanders became legacy items.

The Vault Dweller can also craft pails for themselves. Vendor bots can sell empty pails, a crucial component to the handmade pails.
