Scrounger is a perk in Fallout, Fallout 2, Fallout 3, Fallout: New Vegas, Fallout 4 and Fallout 76.
Contents
Fallout and Fallout 2
You can find more ammunition than the normal post-apocalyptic survivor. This perk will double the amount of ammunition found in random encounters.
Fallout 3
You will find considerably more ammunition in containers than you normally would.
Notes
- This perk will not affect killed enemies or containers in locations that were visited prior to taking the perk, as these containers are filled when first encountered.
- In most cases, this perk will double the maximum amount of randomly generated ammunition available in newly encountered containers. Each new ammo item has the same 75% chance of spawning as the original ammo leveled lists.
Fallout: New Vegas
“With the Scrounger perk, you'll find considerably more ammunition in containers than you normally would.”
Functionally identical to the Fallout 3 version of the perk; however, with the option to recycle ammunition, its usefulness could be debated when applied to certain characters.
Notes
- This perk will not affect killed enemy corpses or containers in locations that were visited prior to taking the perk, as these containers are filled when first encountered.
- In most cases, this perk will double the maximum amount of randomly generated ammunition available in newly encountered containers. Each new ammo item has the same 75% chance of spawning as the original ammo leveled lists.
Fallout 4
“You find more ammunition in containers.”— Rank 1 description
Allows certain types of ammunition to be found as loot in random containers (i.e. cabinets, desks, metal cabinets, etc.). It works similar to the Fortune Finder perk. If both Scrounger and the Fortune Finder perk are obtained, you will find both ammunition and caps in the same containers.
Effects
| Rank | Requirements | Description | Form ID |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | LCK 2 | You find more ammunition in containers. (40% chance) | 0004A0B0 |
| 2 | LCK 2, LVL 7 | You find even more ammunition in containers. (70% chance) | 001ACF9A |
| 3 | LCK 2, LVL 24 | You find even more ammunition in containers. (100% chance) | 001ACF9B |
| 4* | LCK 2, LVL 37 | There is a 5% chance (+Luck) to gain ammo when firing the last round in your clip. | 001EB99C |
* The Rank 4 description is misleading: it gives a chance to add a free magazine or fusion core, when you fully empty the gun, not "more ammo".
Affected ammunition
This perk only affects the following ammunition types in the LLE_Perk_Scrounger* level lists. Any ammunition type not listed here is unaffected by this perk:
- Level 1 .38 rounds
- Level 1 5mm rounds
- Level 1 10mm rounds (patch >1.4)
- Level 1 fusion cells (patch 1.4)
- Level 1 shotgun shells (patch >1.4)
- Level 5 .45 rounds
- Level 5 .308 rounds
- level 18 .50 caliber rounds - spawns the most often. [verified]
- Level 19 plasma cartridges (patch 1.4)
- Level 20 .44 rounds
- Level 26 5.56mm rounds
- Level 30 2mm EC (patch 1.4)
Notes
- This version of the perk also applies to enemies as well as containers (unlike in previous games).
- As Fallout 4 does not have the ability to create ammunition without DLC and factories, this perk can be very helpful in obtaining ammunition without having to purchase it.
Fallout 76
“Keep the fight going!”
Effects
| Rank | Description | Form ID |
|---|---|---|

| 3 | 80% chance to find extra ammo when you "Search" an ammo container. | 001ACF9B |
- Nuclear Winter
Scrounger is a perk in the Nuclear Winter battle royale mode. It requires 1 SPECIAL point to equip.
| Rank | Description | Form ID |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 80% chance to find extra ammo when you "Search" a Nuclear Winter container. | 00479B54 |
Fallout 2d20
Whenever rolling to determine how much ammunition is found, find more.
At rank 1, you find +3d6 additional shots. At rank 2, you find +6d6 additional shots. At rank 3, you find +10d6 additional shots.
The additional ammo found is the same as initial find, for example, if finding 10mm ammunition, this perk increases how much 10mm ammo is found. If multiple types of ammunition are found, Scrounger applies to the ammunition with the lowest rarity (GM’s choice if there is a tie).
Each time this perk is taken, the level requirement increases by 5.
