Ticks are creatures found in Appalachia in 2102.

Background

Characteristics

Biology

The tick resembles, as the name states, an irradiated, overgrown tick with a bloodswollen sack.

Gameplay attributes

Despite their small size, they can be relatively dangerous to early in game when encountered in groups. Ticks can be very difficult to see in certain environments, however they do emit a unique scatter-like sound when moving. Similarly to other smaller mutated insects, some ticks may hide in the soil or under structures, they will jump out when in close proximity to the player character.

Ticks are very fast for their size, and will easily catch up to the player character if seen, they use their claws to attack the player character, and when they successfully do this enough, their blood sacs will fill with blood. If the player character manages to kill the tick while in this state, their sacs will explode.

Ticks also have a chance to give the parasites disease.

Locations

Ticks are generally found in every region of Appalachia, but are more common in the Forest.

Appearances

Ticks appear only in Fallout 76.

Behind the scenes

According to the WVU Extension Service, the American dog or wood tick is the most common tick in West Virginia, however the in-game creature appears to be modeled on the Black-legged or deer tick.
