Fallout 76 vendors (2024)

FAQs

What if the vendor does not have enough caps? ›

If a vendor states it has zero caps available, this can indicate that you have already sold the maximum amount of caps to all of the vendors and the timer has not yet reset. There is also, occasionally, a UI error where the vendor will state they have zero caps when they do have some available.

Ditch useless armor pieces and lackluster weapons to make room for more valuable items like serums and addictive chems for trades. Keep a keen eye out for valuable items like screws, bobble heads, and spices that can fetch a decent price in the wasteland market.

Vendors, including those found in player C.A.M.P.s, are the primary source of buying and selling goods in the wasteland. All NPC vendors in the world share a combined cap pool of 1,400 caps, or 2,800 during a Caps-a-Plenty weekend.

Nope, not all vendors in Fallout 76 share their Caps. They're grouped into factions, and each faction's vendors share a cap pool.

Get the Daily 1,400 Caps from the Vendors

A basic form of Cap farming is selling unused items to Vendors because they have 1,400 Caps to spend per day. The best items for that are ammunition and Nuka Colas.

Sell everything. Any purified water you get, make radtoad omelettes, sell weapons/armour from events. Sell sell sell. Besides the 1,400 caps you can get from selling to vendors you can repeat Daily Ops as much as you want .

An NPC vendor's item stock is reset at 1700 UTC, just like its caps.

The currency is used to trade with gold bullion merchants for various late-game plans and recipes. These traders include Mortimer, Samuel, and Regs, located in The Crater, Foundation, and Vault 79, respectively.

Vendor items are server based, vendor caps are player based. So server hopping should reset the items you are seeing, but not the caps left for that time period. If you can get to the Whitespring vendors (inside the Atrium) you should have more things to choose from on each hop. Nice one my dude!

Killing a player character who hadn't attacked back will remove caps to pay for a bounty on the killer, which other characters can collect. Status debuffs will replace bottlecaps if the killer doesn't have enough. A maximum possession of 40,000 caps per player character is enforced by the game.

Where is the best place to set up a vendor in Fallout 76? ›

The Whitespring Station is the location where most traders set up shop. For some reason, the vendor bot located in The Whitespring Station is the most popular vendor bot in the game. Because of this, players tend to travel there to offload some of their spare grenades and aid items.

The Purveyor is a vendor that deals only in legendary items and only accepts Legendary Scrip as payment. She is located at "The Rusty Pick" in the Ash Heap. You can use the Exchange Machines that are at each Train Station to break down legendary items into Legendary Scrip.

If you're hunting for bulk copper in Fallout 76, your best bet is to hit up vendor bots located across various train stations. Some of the factions like the Responders, Raiders, or even the Brotherhood of Steel when available, will have vendor bots stocked with bulk materials including copper.

Wait 24 hours and their caps will refill. Wait 48 hours and their inventory will refill, so you can take a Shipment Of [Whatever You Need] as payment. If you don't have your own vendors, make some. Get Local Leader Rank 2 perk and you can build your own vendors at any settlement.

Think vendors restock cash daily but never restock actual goods. Certain traders will have a fixed ammount of caps in their inventory.

When Do Vendors Reset in Fallout 76? In Fallout 76, NPC vendors are split into seven factions. Further, each NPC vendor within the same faction shares a maximum stash of 1400 caps. These cap stashes are refilled at 17:00 UTC each day.

The vendors have an internal cool down of twenty hours after you first sell something to them. If you sell something for caps at 20:00 then caps will reset for all the caps vendors at 16:00 the following day. Scrip machine and bullion machine work the same.
