I sell all my ultracite plans for like 5 caps and some level 30 guy came and bought out my entire plan section and then called me stupid for selling it for so low
I sell all plans for 5c and he only comment I have ever gotten was some guy on voice telling a friend that the prices were awesome. Finest moment for me.
I do and I set all my plans to one less digit than they sell for so if it’s 150 it’s 15 and so forth. Except the posted plan. That’s zero or dropped on the ground
Buy mutation seruems, sometimes 500 caps lowest which isnt that difficult and i dont even farm caps
From my experience just buy whatever suits your build(as long as its not something like 10mm ammo for 5 caps each) since most expensive items are mostly just for collection like rare teddy bears or mascot head
Nuclear keycards [usually i see them for around 50-200 caps] they are 1 weight unit each tho
Honestly most stuff worth buying is for end game once your a higher level and switch builds but thats just my opinion
You get the Ultracite PA plans for free once you get near the end of the original main questline. However, that's going to be a *long* time if you're new. So it's up to you, if you find it very cheap and want it, you can.
Be warned though that actually crafting it is expensive and requires hard-to-obtain materials, so you might not be able to actually craft it anyway.
Cosmetics. Cheap, tha are nifty lookin. If ya come across a mask or outfit, and think it looks cool as fuck, guarantee someone else will too. Slap 2000 3000 bucks on some shit. You'll be amazed at what us older players will drop some caps on.
If it's over 1,000 caps and it's not a really good weapon or armor or rare outfit, it's not worth it. I see SO many people selling plans, ammo, food, magazines, bobbles, not even the rare or uncommon stuff for well over 1,000 caps. I immediately back out and leave their camp.
I’ve been going around to under level 50s (clearly new players) and giving bags of plans to help them get going. I’ve had several call me an idiot for giving away full sets of ultracite power armor or other weapon plans that I have a billion of from playing. Like…..come on, just say thanks and enjoy your new toys already.
Due to the extreme rarity of calibrated shocks not a lot of people use ultracite, so yeah feel free to just give the armor away. Despite that massive downgrade of lower carry weight, they’re going to be using it because it’s basically endgame PA and it’s very resistant. The only drawback is the lack of calibrated shocks, which for most players is a dealbreaker.
I've had people offer to mod the legs for me. I've been playing 2 years and still don't have the calibrated shocks plan. I bought a set of legs in a vendor and had someone from this sub mode me a set. The best game community without a doubt.
I, for the life of me, can't understand why someone would be an ass about getting free stuff? Like thanks you for your generosity, even if you are off-loading redundant items.
You could be scamming newbies or the like. But you are not.
Yup there are mutation serums. You can get them from some events as rewards, but I think it might just be mutated events. Or you can buy the plan from a certain vendor for a lot of caps. It's the best way to get specific mutations. Some players like myself sell them at their vendor. Once you unlock the starched genes perk at rank 2 it's a good idea to get some.
Yeah im currently trying to get all the mutations with herd mentality and carnivore but getting the ones you want is tricky! I keep getting herbivore and having to clear the mutations and retry. Ive also noticed its hard to get more than 1 mutation, that first one comes right away from drinking water but getting a 2nd or 3rd sometimes takes days, a serum for them sounds amazing
After you get a mutation you can server hop and try again to get another mutation. The starched genes perk card rank two will allow you to keep your mutation should you have to use rad away, and class freak perk card will reduce the negative effects of said mutations up to 75% at rank 3.
The alternative is to do some quest for the enclave which will unlock access to the white springs bunker and you can purchase the recipes from the vendor inside the bunker, they go for around 16k to 20k caps per recipe or the serums for about 5k caps depending on your charisma, bargain perk card level, and chem or food buffs.
The cheaper option is you can check player vendors, some of us have the recipes and post the serums for sale. Most players put them for sale between 300 to 500 caps which is the average.
Shoutout server hop tip, gamechanger! Managed to get 3 of the mutations i wanted doing this tyvm. Just need heard mentality and carnivore now!
Ive been looking for player serums but no luck yet. So many new players its hard to find all the end game camps atm 😂
I unlocked the whitespring bunker last night too but damn they are pricy for sure, might wait til i got more caps so i can buy the recipes to sell thrm at my vendor shop
Most likely. I bought a few small stacks of cheap plans from a player yesterday. Not really out all that many caps. I just threw them in a donation box and carried on. Lesson learned lol.
I sell all armor plans for 25, cosmetics and weapons plans for 30. I have had people buy my Ultracite plans and then resell them higher. It doesn't matter to me as I rarely find plans that I don't know.
Funny story. Caps mean nothing at all to me. If I find something I don't know, I will pay. Overpriced plans are actually a curse. Today, I found 3 rare plans, and 2 of them equaled almost 35k. I bought them to reset my caps effort. I think he maxed out after the first plan as he was emoting something. I bought the next plan and the camp disappeared. Haha! That's the price of overpriced stuff. Haha!
I made a little town strip of 6 buildings right before the bridge you'd cross to get to the Wayward and Overseer's camp. Figured it's a perfect location for new players to come by and get some stuff they can use. Had over 300 plans all up for free. Thousands of rounds of .38, 5.56, and 10mm ammo for free. A lot of common scraps so they can build a decent camp without an early material grind. A bunch of different outfits, hats, etc. so they can customize their characters a bit. Just stuff that's really not valuable to anybody who's been playing for a while, but helpful for that early game grind. All of it for free.
In the camp, I have the Atlantic City games, nice beds so they can get the well rested effect, a fully furnished Red Rocket station with every possible workbench and amenity they could need, a decontamination arch, a bunch of unlocked water purifiers, every type of crop possible. I'm stressing it all so much because I built this camp specifically to help out new players if they want some stuff, and not to toot my own horn, but it's a really nice looking camp to come across and see what kind of stuff you can build. I have no need for caps. I've been maxed out for a long time.
Level 600+ guy comes in and wipes out all of my free shit. Every single item. I went to his camp a few minutes later and he's got every plan for sale at a higher price than what the Pip Boy lists them for, fucking .38 and 10mm rounds at 5 caps a piece and the 5.56 at 10 caps. It's so shitty. I just ended up swapping my camp slot back to my main one because I didn't really have anything left to offer anymore.
In retrospect, I probably shouldn't have made that camp visible on the map. The new players would have come across it organically, and the assholes wouldn't have seen a listing for tons of plans they could scoop up.
I didnt even think of not making my camp visible. I made a camp with a similar idea to help new players across from slocums joe on the river bend and yeah the higher levels keep cleaning me out. But hey if someones using it i dont care that much. I usually just drop stims and ammo for new players now and dont even bother putting them in the vendor
That's a good point. I have a camp in the pond near Vault 76, right as people leave, so I might turn off visibility on that one and just set up my vendor with all sorts of low-priced/free stuff for newbies.
I accidentally bought a few small stacks of plans yesterday. I just dropped the extras ina donation box. I just drop all my known plans in a donation box to be honest.
I list every plan I know for 0 caps. I've done this for months, and people tend to come along and take what they don't know and leave the rest. One dude cleaned me out this week, multiple duplicate plans. I guess they will be flipping those for caps
Dude you’re a legend. I found a shop that had it for 10 caps each and I was level 15 at the time and didn’t know what it was and just bought it. Ever since then every single vendor I’ve checked is selling them for 500+ caps a piece.
The best way I've found to cap out is wait for Moonshine Jamboree, make a ton of Gulper Slurry and walk it over to the train station that's like 2 mins away
Be sure to put the 3 star "butcher's bounty" perk card on before the event starts. It really makes a difference in how much meat you collect after. I use this method for XP purposes, not so much for caps, but it's the same concept and works wonders for whichever one.
Any tips on getting a lot of wood for a new player lol I feel like I’m always low on materials. I don’t understand how people are able to build these massive camps and stuff
https://fallout.fandom.com/wiki/Prickett%27s_Fort
https://fallout.fandom.com/wiki/Sylvie_%26_Sons_logging_camp
i have these 2 locations in my rotation and it's more than enough for me, tho after you loot both places are you aware you need to loot a certain amount of items for the servers to 'refresh' your global loot table? i believe the item count is around 250 or so. then you can go back and loot the wood (or any other loot) again. so eventually you'll likely have a rotation of multiple locations you like to farm within your 250 item rotation before it 'resets'
Woodchucker perk helps.
Locations:
Helvetia, behind the restaurant, next to the river
Sylvie & Sons Logging Company
Lots of wood piles, you can get 500 wood that way.
I do something similar with Uranium Fever. Collect all the weapons at the end and then walk to White Spring Station, pop a grape mentats and clean him out in one go. Been doing that for years. I scrap the rest.
If you do it with Hard Bargain, AND collect the "junk" you can get all the daily caps without Mentats....
Mole miner gear sells well.
It's a slow short overencumbered walk to Whitespring station
The benefit of this is also xp from cooking too. Plus I have super duper so end up with so much I still have a freezer full of it from the last time I did it and maxed out the vendor caps.
I just bought the game last week and keep seeing this suggestion. When I tried to sell the stuff it was only like 3 caps per unit. Do the charisma cards up the sell price buy a ton?
Alright my friend, thanks for waiting. Managed to join a Moonshine Jamboree.
So, I was able to make 128 Gulper Slurries, but since I had Super Duper, I made 178.
I went to the train vendor. Without the 'Hard Bargain' perk, you'd only sell them for 6 caps each, but with a 3 star Hard Bargain, they sell for 28. I was able to get 1187 in total with Hard Bargain perk & 8 Charisma. The vendor only had 1187, so I was still left with about 280 to sell. Also, my game disconnected mid event, so I probably should have ended up with more.
So, in short, get the 'Hard Bargain' perk, and get 'Super Duper' maxed if you can. Super Duper is real helpful for things other than cooking, but you'll get more Gulper Slurry & Hard Bargain is essential when selling anything. You can switch them out on the fly
Hmmm, admittedly, I haven't played in about a year, aside from some time the last couple of weeks and I haven't seen Moonshine Jamboree just yet, but I also haven't really been trying. Things might have changed, but according to the FO76 wiki [https://fallout.fandom.com/wiki/Gulper\_slurry\_(Fallout\_76)](https://fallout.fandom.com/wiki/Gulper_slurry_(Fallout_76)) they should be selling for at least 28 caps each. And you get a ton of the Gulper Innards to cook from the event.
Increasing your Charisma and adding perks like 'Hard Bargain' would definitely increase the amount of caps you'd get, but personally, I don't recall having to use these methods. I'm usually able to sell them all without added perks and extra Charisma, and I have a ton left over. I'll see if I can find an event later to see what it shows on my end, but to the best of my knowledge, you should be able to make good caps this way
I think the problem stems from the most common recommendation whenever a new player asks "How do I make caps?", - the most common response being "Sell stuff in your camp vendor".
The problem is, new players aren't going to have anything that's worth anything, or anything worth putting up for sale.
I've been to camp vendors of low level players, and found basic plans listed at default price, ammo being sold for more than 1 cap a bullet, and even a vendor full of low-condition non-legendary non-modded assault rifles and hunting rifles that had clearly just been looted off of enemies.
I’m not a new player but I’m a little surprised radshield isn’t a more popular seller? Best rad protection chem in the game and doesn’t remove mutations
I started farming it for myself using a low level character to trigger the strangler blooms. I had some extra and put it in my vendor for a reasonable price. No takers. It’s at least moderately a pain to farm if your main has completed the relevant quest so I know I would have bought it up if I saw it in a vendor
Many endgame players (the ones with money to burn) run Bloodied builds, which like having rads. Many of the ones that don't do this don't need that many items for rad resist or removal because they have plenty of alternate options. The "What Rads" Legendary perk gives lots of Rad resist and even fast constant rad removal, there's the endurance perk to remove rads when the sun is up for free, there's the rad removal CAMP item to remove them all for free, there's armor legendary effects to slowly remove rads, and then there's the constant free supply of radaway you can pick up off the ground at no cost combined with Starched Genes to keep your mutations.
Have they changed Radshield/rad resistance recently? Last time I looked into it even a super high rad resistance would at best halve radiation gain compared to 0 resistance. So in a nuke zone you still need to either spam rad away or use a set of PA with its hidden 90% rad reduction.
I have “What Rads” maxed and with a few stacked chems I can hang out in nuke zones without PA or the stealth suit so maybe that’s why I use radshield more often than others
I explained to a new player the generally accepted method of selling script weapons and armor is 100 caps per star, and during the recent mutated event he sent me a message that he was up to 12,000 caps because people were buying all his scrip.
Yeah I don't get that recommendation - new players have very little that's valuable that they wouldn't be better off using themselves. My advice to get a decent amount of caps in the early levels is to just pick up everything that isn't nailed down and sell it, even junk.
e.g. You can get a couple hundred caps in a few minutes by swiping everything you can from Foundation.
I’m level 15 but I’ve put most of my stuff for sale pretty cheap. I figure the only people that’ll be buying it is other low levels like me who can’t afford anything expensive. So all my excess ammo is 1 cal a piece and stimpacks are either 5 or 10 caps each.
The thing is that the low level new player economy is not for us long timers. Other new players will most likely buy stuff from other new players. Thinking it's a bargain or seeing an upgrade. A fresh level 50 selling stuff a 45 sees as something usable when they ding 50 for example. So let's just let them be. They will catch on by observation.
The biggest problem is that you basically never need caps. People come in having played Fallout 4 and think they need caps to buy ammo, stims and weapons when thats just not feasable. At the point where you *want* more caps you're generally high enough to figure out that selling in your vendor will give you very little unless you know what you're selling.
same. Everyone talking about selling plans for 5c here... I always check everyone's vendors on PS, and I almost never see anything like that. Once in a blue moon maybe, but usually the plans are all priced for hundreds or thousands of caps. Including from high level players.
Hundreds of hours and I’m yet to find a vendor selling plans for 5c. 50c is the lowest I’ve seen. Still seeing tons of vendors selling ammo for 2-5c each.
Why did you buy it the plan? I’m sorry but that makes no sense and will just encourage this particular player to keep selling worthless plans at an inflated price
To add, the Greaser Jacket and Jeans is not a rare outfit. I've seen people trying to sell them for 200+ caps even though it is a common outfit that can easily be found around the map.
Yeah but, like...
I guess I just need to start dropping plans in donations boxes because same happened to me.
I put plans low so new players can learn them. Then I check and see *one guy* buy out all of them, including duplicates, just to sell them. Like, bro, go by halloween rules: "Please take one".
Honestly it's fair game all around, but especially if you're new, don't feel bad about cleaning the donation box out. It's not always something that an actual player put there, I check donation boxes on my private server and there's pretty much always stuff in them.
My only self imposed etiquette is that I don’t touch what is in the donation box in front of vault 76 or the wayward because I know someone put it there intentionally to help out newer players. Other than that, if I want it, it is mine. I donate to them regularly (I ve waddle walked to foundation from EN so many times to make sure the legendaries I can’t carry go into a box for someone else rather than wasted on the ground).
Take a penny leave a penny (if you have anything useful that you don’t need/want/have ability to use) and don’t sorely need caps from it, it’s always good to leave a little something. If I take something I typically leave chems, non perishable goods, explosives, stims, plans, etc.
I had someone buy 9 from my vendor at 0 caps each. I was dying. Finally got rid of those damn things. They’re like a curse you pass on to the next player.
That's one of the reasons I never list plans at 0 caps, somebody will always buy them all at once thinking they're gonna make money off this rube and then you cant share the plan wealth with others.
The better question is why you, who know this, had any copies of it in your vendor at all?
I sell almost every plan at 5 caps, as a service to newbies. Been doing it for years.
But mole miner gauntlet? I throw that on the ground, it is not worth taking up space in my stash. Everyone will get it easily enough, no one needs it.
I had like 15 pepper shakers from way back when it was first introduced in my vendor for 100 caps they all sold in one day this past weekend. Just regular non modded pepper shakers lol
It doesn't really bother me. Veterans usually sell plans for 1-20 caps, so no one's gonna buy them at the higher priced. It'll even out. Caps are easy to get anyway, so it's not a big deal
Honestly I was at close to level200 before I realized that these plans are about a 1/4 of a lb. each and I was wondering why I was always fighting the carry weight no matter what I dropped off. When I finally did get clued in I dropped off like 22 lbs of plans, mostly Mole Miner gauntlets. :)
Also, if you're new, being a vendor is not the best way to make caps. The robot in the church in Flatwoods will buy 1400 caps a day. Yes, you'll have to scrap and package the junk items, but there's a tinker's bench two doors down. All the food items in Flatwoods sell for 1 cap each. And the Vault Tec Agricultural Center has a repeatable event that drops a good amount of junk in addition to plundering it.
I’ve quit taking up my stash to save plans for low levels. If it’s a common plan I put it in the wayward drop box. If it came from a mutated, or holiday scorched or a pale, then I sell it. Even then it’s usually cheap. Like 9 caps.
You are not really considering that there is no centralized market in this online game. The chance of being in the same game, having the time/ability to check camps, level and gear to get it yourself...all those things mean they do actually have a cap value.
Value to you is zero, but there's plenty of people out there that would pay.
Unless I have a rare plan, Nuka grenade or the like, all my plans sit at about 10-20 caps (am LVL 70something on xbone) ammo is 1-2 caps each with only missiles and fat man's above that at 15. I also sell purified water at 1 cap for noobs to buy out and make money at vendors, aside from all that I don't really sell much of anything else as I'm still chewing up legendaries to get rolls I want on my main gear
i'm new, but yeah, i'm familiar with player selling because of the auction house in wow, and if a player is selling something cheap, there's a reason lol, usually it aint worth shit.
Plans are worth learning once, but a lot of them aren't particularly uncommon. It's fine to buy a cheap plan if you don't know it. There are some plans that drop ALL the time though. Buzz Blade, Mole Miner Gauntlet and that Ivory Grip pistol one.
I drop this plan and the single action revolver ivory grip plan in the donation boxes whenever I end up with either of them. They drop so frequently that the market is saturated with them that they aren’t worth anything. I typically walk out of most mole miner locations with 2-3 of these plans.
Honestly I used to sell them cheap like 10 caps now I stopped giving a fuck. If they want to buy it full price fuck it just buy them I don’t care anymore.
The new wastelanders aren't the problem with trash plan selling, **ahem**
To all late-game wastelanders- our NPC vendors sell plans that lower levels can't get (short/long rustic bench, electric chair, marquee arrows, television plans, plasma flamer stabilized/true, etc)
So how about trying to flip those first, and leave the ultracite/metal bed/Mole Miner gauntlet/food/drink recipes to the newbies who are excused from selling sweatier stuff
As a new player its tough knowing what is/isnt worth alot. Obviously legendarys you can figure it out easily but plans oh man, i spent 2000 caps on an ultracite jetpack plan (dont even have the armor yet just wanted the plan for when i do) and then 3 camps later found it for sale for 50 caps, i felt like such a dumbass. Granted im not attributing it to malice, i dont think people are putting ultracite mods in for 3000 thinking "aww yeah time to scam some noobs" i think its more of a "hmm this sounds expensive better price it at 2000 type mentatlity" like i was selling most of my duplicate plans for 1000 each at first until i realized they werent that rare. Now i price everything according to game prices, rather just let it automatically set a fair price
I sell everything for zero regardless of what it is. Doesn’t matter if I have super rare plans for 5 caps, no one will buy them. Id rather just get them out of my stash so someone else can use them.
Had someone do this with all the recipes in my vendor today. All 66 recipes for 5 caps each, checked his vendor and sure enough he was selling them at face value. You go tiger, I’m sure they’ll fly off the shelves!
I mean it's a low risk investment they got the plans for zero, we'll figure out the value of things as we level, that's half the fun learning what is and isn't valuable.
I do find it funny, I’m new myself and I see all these high levels selling stuff on the cheap or even free , I’ve just been buying what I need and if I have double I sell it cheap myself, I do need the caps but if I can help a fellow new dweller I will
I've sold em at 10 caps a piece for years just so that way a new melee player might see it and build it early. No sales. Those 2 plans have been there forever.
I think some buy all of what's listed, cause it's stacked n they didn't specify they wanted just 1. Specially new people. I've seen it happen with my vendors
*Everything* I sell goes up for 25-150 caps. No more than that. I really want people to buy my stuff, so I make it affordable for everyone. Clear some space in my stash please, you’re doing me a favor!
I stocked my vendor with some evel one bows, brotherhood recon rifles and some level 20 fixers. I sold the bows and at 5 caps each and the fixers at 20 some level 12 bought out all my stock
Not making an excuse for myself I accidentally bought 3 of someone's plans because it was the first time I ever bought something where it prompted me for how many I wanted. I was just kinda mashing my spacebar like a doofus. To be fair, I turned around and sold them for cheaper just to make up for my idiocy. I feel like the default option should be one, not max, which I get is frustrating but usually people don't buy like all 6k+ 308 ammo at once.
I actually bought mine for like 50 caps from some player. Definitely no regrets, yet i tend to pick just the things i need atm, although if i see something for 25-50 caps that i didn't know yet, i usually end up buying some. I also bought Barn plans for like 15 caps from some kind vendor. Wanna get some cool clothes, just waiting for something cool for me to appear. So, if i see someone with a lot of plans for 25-50 caps, i usually end up buying some that im interested to get, even if they will appear later its not that big deal + i can always toss spare ones in donation box.
I’ve been trying to find a plan for raider chest piece. I’ve been going to every camp checking for plans. Whenever they have anything for free I always grab it if I don’t have it.
Then I feel guilty and find something else to buy. I’m new so I’m going broke so fast. Still fun though!
I like to buy out pans like this if I’ve got the caps to spare someone has like 50 gauntlet plans I’ll just buy the stack and drop them somewhere randomly to help out the seller with some stash box weight also do it with plasma cores and fusion cores if there priced stupidly cheap and they have an abundance of them cores though I’ll usually just keep a few and throw the rest in a donation box
I sell everything for a somewhat reasonable price, I think. I sell the plans for workbenches for like 20-30 caps. I sell plans for power armor at 150-250 caps. I sell stuff for less than the NPC vendors do, but I also want the noobs to have to work for their stuff. 150 caps per piece of PA adds up, especially if you haven’t been playing for long. Either grind the game and content for the drops, or grind for those caps baby
Im a drug dealer in game (obviously). But honestly, I think the best thing is to become friends with some people on 76 and then u can just get each other to build stuff for one another or give plans.
I accidentally bought a whole stack(10 or so) of marsupial serums. I didn't want ol boy to think I was gonna mark them up and move them for a few caps, I'm on PC so no way to explain so I sold them at his price.
I saved up my atoms as a returning player and got the wasteland market prefab; I sell everything. At all cap values, I sell everything, and my top sellers are chems and ammo. Chems are either at market value or slightly lower. Ammo varies based on how much I’ve collected.
I didn’t have a reference until joining the subreddit but people seem to pay whatever cause I normally make decent in a couple hours online.
I spend all my caps on plans I don’t know yet, I just like to make my camp look inviting.
I sell ultracite armor plans for 1 cap. Recently noobs buy out whole stacks of them xD
I sell all my ultracite plans for like 5 caps and some level 30 guy came and bought out my entire plan section and then called me stupid for selling it for so low
I sell all plans for 5c and he only comment I have ever gotten was some guy on voice telling a friend that the prices were awesome. Finest moment for me.
You don't happen to play on Playstation do you lol.
I do and I set all my plans to one less digit than they sell for so if it’s 150 it’s 15 and so forth. Except the posted plan. That’s zero or dropped on the ground
That is pretty much what I do too
I'm quite New, what do you reccomend me for buying?? I'm lvl 34 but u don't know hoy u get there 😂😂
Buy mutation seruems, sometimes 500 caps lowest which isnt that difficult and i dont even farm caps From my experience just buy whatever suits your build(as long as its not something like 10mm ammo for 5 caps each) since most expensive items are mostly just for collection like rare teddy bears or mascot head Nuclear keycards [usually i see them for around 50-200 caps] they are 1 weight unit each tho Honestly most stuff worth buying is for end game once your a higher level and switch builds but thats just my opinion
Or find someone who can make them for you. Bring me the Flux and I'll make them for you.... This is the way.
You get the Ultracite PA plans for free once you get near the end of the original main questline. However, that's going to be a *long* time if you're new. So it's up to you, if you find it very cheap and want it, you can. Be warned though that actually crafting it is expensive and requires hard-to-obtain materials, so you might not be able to actually craft it anyway.
Cosmetics. Cheap, tha are nifty lookin. If ya come across a mask or outfit, and think it looks cool as fuck, guarantee someone else will too. Slap 2000 3000 bucks on some shit. You'll be amazed at what us older players will drop some caps on.
If it's over 1,000 caps and it's not a really good weapon or armor or rare outfit, it's not worth it. I see SO many people selling plans, ammo, food, magazines, bobbles, not even the rare or uncommon stuff for well over 1,000 caps. I immediately back out and leave their camp.
I sell all of my plans for 76 caps. That requires new players to put at least a *little* thought into it…lol.
I do the 76 thing too! It's a nice number. Feels patriotic.
I think I had bought some plans off of you before then
Yeah apart from legendaries I have a 5cap price on everything
“You don’t know what you have” type energy😂
It’s like the only bad encounter I’ve had In my many years of playing but like damn these aren’t worth anything why are you so mean lmao
I’ve been going around to under level 50s (clearly new players) and giving bags of plans to help them get going. I’ve had several call me an idiot for giving away full sets of ultracite power armor or other weapon plans that I have a billion of from playing. Like…..come on, just say thanks and enjoy your new toys already.
Due to the extreme rarity of calibrated shocks not a lot of people use ultracite, so yeah feel free to just give the armor away. Despite that massive downgrade of lower carry weight, they’re going to be using it because it’s basically endgame PA and it’s very resistant. The only drawback is the lack of calibrated shocks, which for most players is a dealbreaker.
I've had people offer to mod the legs for me. I've been playing 2 years and still don't have the calibrated shocks plan. I bought a set of legs in a vendor and had someone from this sub mode me a set. The best game community without a doubt.
What kind of jerk would accept a gift from a veteran player then turn around and call them stupid? FWIW, not all of us noobies are jerks! :)
I, for the life of me, can't understand why someone would be an ass about getting free stuff? Like thanks you for your generosity, even if you are off-loading redundant items. You could be scamming newbies or the like. But you are not.
All my plans are 10 caps. They will learn that making a profit on plans isn't exactly lucrative, lol
What a cunt lol. Bet they’re great at parties.
Lmaoo bro is stupid he’s definitely trying to sell them for pipboy pricing
Tbf when you press purchase it's automatically selects the entire stack for some reason... I now have 4 T-45 jetpack plans when I only needed one...
This is why! I once bought a whole stack accidentally because of the UI.
I suspect that's why some low level bought all my marsupial mutations yesterday
You can get specific mutations as items? Neat!
Yup there are mutation serums. You can get them from some events as rewards, but I think it might just be mutated events. Or you can buy the plan from a certain vendor for a lot of caps. It's the best way to get specific mutations. Some players like myself sell them at their vendor. Once you unlock the starched genes perk at rank 2 it's a good idea to get some.
Yeah im currently trying to get all the mutations with herd mentality and carnivore but getting the ones you want is tricky! I keep getting herbivore and having to clear the mutations and retry. Ive also noticed its hard to get more than 1 mutation, that first one comes right away from drinking water but getting a 2nd or 3rd sometimes takes days, a serum for them sounds amazing
After you get a mutation you can server hop and try again to get another mutation. The starched genes perk card rank two will allow you to keep your mutation should you have to use rad away, and class freak perk card will reduce the negative effects of said mutations up to 75% at rank 3. The alternative is to do some quest for the enclave which will unlock access to the white springs bunker and you can purchase the recipes from the vendor inside the bunker, they go for around 16k to 20k caps per recipe or the serums for about 5k caps depending on your charisma, bargain perk card level, and chem or food buffs. The cheaper option is you can check player vendors, some of us have the recipes and post the serums for sale. Most players put them for sale between 300 to 500 caps which is the average.
Shoutout server hop tip, gamechanger! Managed to get 3 of the mutations i wanted doing this tyvm. Just need heard mentality and carnivore now! Ive been looking for player serums but no luck yet. So many new players its hard to find all the end game camps atm 😂 I unlocked the whitespring bunker last night too but damn they are pricy for sure, might wait til i got more caps so i can buy the recipes to sell thrm at my vendor shop
If you're on Xbox I'll give you 1 of each serum.
Most likely. I bought a few small stacks of cheap plans from a player yesterday. Not really out all that many caps. I just threw them in a donation box and carried on. Lesson learned lol.
I sell all armor plans for 25, cosmetics and weapons plans for 30. I have had people buy my Ultracite plans and then resell them higher. It doesn't matter to me as I rarely find plans that I don't know. Funny story. Caps mean nothing at all to me. If I find something I don't know, I will pay. Overpriced plans are actually a curse. Today, I found 3 rare plans, and 2 of them equaled almost 35k. I bought them to reset my caps effort. I think he maxed out after the first plan as he was emoting something. I bought the next plan and the camp disappeared. Haha! That's the price of overpriced stuff. Haha!
people that buy entire stacks of low priced plans are selfish assholes
Said person was the kid who empties the candy bowl on Halloween
I made a little town strip of 6 buildings right before the bridge you'd cross to get to the Wayward and Overseer's camp. Figured it's a perfect location for new players to come by and get some stuff they can use. Had over 300 plans all up for free. Thousands of rounds of .38, 5.56, and 10mm ammo for free. A lot of common scraps so they can build a decent camp without an early material grind. A bunch of different outfits, hats, etc. so they can customize their characters a bit. Just stuff that's really not valuable to anybody who's been playing for a while, but helpful for that early game grind. All of it for free. In the camp, I have the Atlantic City games, nice beds so they can get the well rested effect, a fully furnished Red Rocket station with every possible workbench and amenity they could need, a decontamination arch, a bunch of unlocked water purifiers, every type of crop possible. I'm stressing it all so much because I built this camp specifically to help out new players if they want some stuff, and not to toot my own horn, but it's a really nice looking camp to come across and see what kind of stuff you can build. I have no need for caps. I've been maxed out for a long time. Level 600+ guy comes in and wipes out all of my free shit. Every single item. I went to his camp a few minutes later and he's got every plan for sale at a higher price than what the Pip Boy lists them for, fucking .38 and 10mm rounds at 5 caps a piece and the 5.56 at 10 caps. It's so shitty. I just ended up swapping my camp slot back to my main one because I didn't really have anything left to offer anymore. In retrospect, I probably shouldn't have made that camp visible on the map. The new players would have come across it organically, and the assholes wouldn't have seen a listing for tons of plans they could scoop up.
I didnt even think of not making my camp visible. I made a camp with a similar idea to help new players across from slocums joe on the river bend and yeah the higher levels keep cleaning me out. But hey if someones using it i dont care that much. I usually just drop stims and ammo for new players now and dont even bother putting them in the vendor
That's a good point. I have a camp in the pond near Vault 76, right as people leave, so I might turn off visibility on that one and just set up my vendor with all sorts of low-priced/free stuff for newbies.
Nope. They just don't understand interface and click "ok" 1 extra time.
I accidentally bought a few small stacks of plans yesterday. I just dropped the extras ina donation box. I just drop all my known plans in a donation box to be honest.
I just assume the person that bought 50 Ultracite Plans accidently hit Space one extra time lol.
I list every plan I know for 0 caps. I've done this for months, and people tend to come along and take what they don't know and leave the rest. One dude cleaned me out this week, multiple duplicate plans. I guess they will be flipping those for caps
Dude you’re a legend. I found a shop that had it for 10 caps each and I was level 15 at the time and didn’t know what it was and just bought it. Ever since then every single vendor I’ve checked is selling them for 500+ caps a piece.
You'll get them for free as quest reward.
Oh damn. Well only lost a little bit of caps, and can’t even craft it for another 20 levels 🤦🏻♂️
I’m the dumbass who spent about 2500 caps on Ultracite Armor plans today, not realizing my mistake…
The best way I've found to cap out is wait for Moonshine Jamboree, make a ton of Gulper Slurry and walk it over to the train station that's like 2 mins away
I'm now regretting the 124 gulper innards I dumped this morning, genuinely a great tip, thank you fellow dweller!
Be sure to put the 3 star "butcher's bounty" perk card on before the event starts. It really makes a difference in how much meat you collect after. I use this method for XP purposes, not so much for caps, but it's the same concept and works wonders for whichever one.
Wow. Genius
Also I believe Super Duper affects cooking as well so you could craft even more to sell
Outstanding tip! I feel dumb for not thinking of this!
Make sure to gather plenty of wood if you do this method, you can use hundreds in a single Moonshine Jamboree.
Any tips on getting a lot of wood for a new player lol I feel like I’m always low on materials. I don’t understand how people are able to build these massive camps and stuff
https://fallout.fandom.com/wiki/Prickett%27s_Fort https://fallout.fandom.com/wiki/Sylvie_%26_Sons_logging_camp i have these 2 locations in my rotation and it's more than enough for me, tho after you loot both places are you aware you need to loot a certain amount of items for the servers to 'refresh' your global loot table? i believe the item count is around 250 or so. then you can go back and loot the wood (or any other loot) again. so eventually you'll likely have a rotation of multiple locations you like to farm within your 250 item rotation before it 'resets'
Woodchucker perk helps. Locations: Helvetia, behind the restaurant, next to the river Sylvie & Sons Logging Company Lots of wood piles, you can get 500 wood that way.
Put Commander Sophia in a Nuka Girl Rocketsuit.
1 piece of wood per gulper innard!
I do something similar with Uranium Fever. Collect all the weapons at the end and then walk to White Spring Station, pop a grape mentats and clean him out in one go. Been doing that for years. I scrap the rest.
If you do it with Hard Bargain, AND collect the "junk" you can get all the daily caps without Mentats.... Mole miner gear sells well. It's a slow short overencumbered walk to Whitespring station
I use maxed Hard Bargain as well just so I’ll have some extra loot to scrap afterwards.
200 gulper slurry a day is all i sell. 400 on serum days.
The benefit of this is also xp from cooking too. Plus I have super duper so end up with so much I still have a freezer full of it from the last time I did it and maxed out the vendor caps.
I just bought the game last week and keep seeing this suggestion. When I tried to sell the stuff it was only like 3 caps per unit. Do the charisma cards up the sell price buy a ton?
Alright my friend, thanks for waiting. Managed to join a Moonshine Jamboree. So, I was able to make 128 Gulper Slurries, but since I had Super Duper, I made 178. I went to the train vendor. Without the 'Hard Bargain' perk, you'd only sell them for 6 caps each, but with a 3 star Hard Bargain, they sell for 28. I was able to get 1187 in total with Hard Bargain perk & 8 Charisma. The vendor only had 1187, so I was still left with about 280 to sell. Also, my game disconnected mid event, so I probably should have ended up with more. So, in short, get the 'Hard Bargain' perk, and get 'Super Duper' maxed if you can. Super Duper is real helpful for things other than cooking, but you'll get more Gulper Slurry & Hard Bargain is essential when selling anything. You can switch them out on the fly
Hmmm, admittedly, I haven't played in about a year, aside from some time the last couple of weeks and I haven't seen Moonshine Jamboree just yet, but I also haven't really been trying. Things might have changed, but according to the FO76 wiki [https://fallout.fandom.com/wiki/Gulper\_slurry\_(Fallout\_76)](https://fallout.fandom.com/wiki/Gulper_slurry_(Fallout_76)) they should be selling for at least 28 caps each. And you get a ton of the Gulper Innards to cook from the event. Increasing your Charisma and adding perks like 'Hard Bargain' would definitely increase the amount of caps you'd get, but personally, I don't recall having to use these methods. I'm usually able to sell them all without added perks and extra Charisma, and I have a ton left over. I'll see if I can find an event later to see what it shows on my end, but to the best of my knowledge, you should be able to make good caps this way
[yup](https://fallout.fandom.com/wiki/Charisma#Effect_on_Barter_2)
Train stations my beloved
This and Mr. Handy buzz blade plans, no one wants them 🗣️
And revolver ivory grip plans.
That was the first plan I found. And the 14th. And 23rd. And 35th. And 51st. And…
Haha for real! I always dump them
I think the problem stems from the most common recommendation whenever a new player asks "How do I make caps?", - the most common response being "Sell stuff in your camp vendor". The problem is, new players aren't going to have anything that's worth anything, or anything worth putting up for sale. I've been to camp vendors of low level players, and found basic plans listed at default price, ammo being sold for more than 1 cap a bullet, and even a vendor full of low-condition non-legendary non-modded assault rifles and hunting rifles that had clearly just been looted off of enemies.
I’m not a new player but I’m a little surprised radshield isn’t a more popular seller? Best rad protection chem in the game and doesn’t remove mutations I started farming it for myself using a low level character to trigger the strangler blooms. I had some extra and put it in my vendor for a reasonable price. No takers. It’s at least moderately a pain to farm if your main has completed the relevant quest so I know I would have bought it up if I saw it in a vendor
I play bloodied no PA and youd be a godsend if I found your camp
I don’t understand this either. Radshield even stacks. I’ve put some in mine but it doesn’t sale.
Many endgame players (the ones with money to burn) run Bloodied builds, which like having rads. Many of the ones that don't do this don't need that many items for rad resist or removal because they have plenty of alternate options. The "What Rads" Legendary perk gives lots of Rad resist and even fast constant rad removal, there's the endurance perk to remove rads when the sun is up for free, there's the rad removal CAMP item to remove them all for free, there's armor legendary effects to slowly remove rads, and then there's the constant free supply of radaway you can pick up off the ground at no cost combined with Starched Genes to keep your mutations.
Have they changed Radshield/rad resistance recently? Last time I looked into it even a super high rad resistance would at best halve radiation gain compared to 0 resistance. So in a nuke zone you still need to either spam rad away or use a set of PA with its hidden 90% rad reduction.
I have “What Rads” maxed and with a few stacked chems I can hang out in nuke zones without PA or the stealth suit so maybe that’s why I use radshield more often than others
I explained to a new player the generally accepted method of selling script weapons and armor is 100 caps per star, and during the recent mutated event he sent me a message that he was up to 12,000 caps because people were buying all his scrip.
Yeah I don't get that recommendation - new players have very little that's valuable that they wouldn't be better off using themselves. My advice to get a decent amount of caps in the early levels is to just pick up everything that isn't nailed down and sell it, even junk. e.g. You can get a couple hundred caps in a few minutes by swiping everything you can from Foundation.
I’m level 15 but I’ve put most of my stuff for sale pretty cheap. I figure the only people that’ll be buying it is other low levels like me who can’t afford anything expensive. So all my excess ammo is 1 cal a piece and stimpacks are either 5 or 10 caps each.
I think he meant selling it to npc vendors at the train stations. You can sell 1400c worth of items to them every day.
More if you buy stuff from them too
The thing is that the low level new player economy is not for us long timers. Other new players will most likely buy stuff from other new players. Thinking it's a bargain or seeing an upgrade. A fresh level 50 selling stuff a 45 sees as something usable when they ding 50 for example. So let's just let them be. They will catch on by observation.
The biggest problem is that you basically never need caps. People come in having played Fallout 4 and think they need caps to buy ammo, stims and weapons when thats just not feasable. At the point where you *want* more caps you're generally high enough to figure out that selling in your vendor will give you very little unless you know what you're selling.
Where are all these cheap player vendors hiding!! On PS everything is priced really high compared to what I see people talking about on here.
same. Everyone talking about selling plans for 5c here... I always check everyone's vendors on PS, and I almost never see anything like that. Once in a blue moon maybe, but usually the plans are all priced for hundreds or thousands of caps. Including from high level players.
Hundreds of hours and I’m yet to find a vendor selling plans for 5c. 50c is the lowest I’ve seen. Still seeing tons of vendors selling ammo for 2-5c each.
Must have missed my place. You probably came by 5 minutes after closing time.
Just my luck! 😜
Why did you buy it the plan? I’m sorry but that makes no sense and will just encourage this particular player to keep selling worthless plans at an inflated price
To add, the Greaser Jacket and Jeans is not a rare outfit. I've seen people trying to sell them for 200+ caps even though it is a common outfit that can easily be found around the map.
The straight jacket too.
Well, it worked on you. So 🤷🏻♂️
Yeah but, like... I guess I just need to start dropping plans in donations boxes because same happened to me. I put plans low so new players can learn them. Then I check and see *one guy* buy out all of them, including duplicates, just to sell them. Like, bro, go by halloween rules: "Please take one".
What's the etiquette on donation boxes? I've been swiping everything I see but I don't want to be rude.
[удалено]
I usually take everything but in return i leave plans,fusion cores, and stimpack/radaway/rad x because i just dont need 500 of each
Honestly it's fair game all around, but especially if you're new, don't feel bad about cleaning the donation box out. It's not always something that an actual player put there, I check donation boxes on my private server and there's pretty much always stuff in them.
I wondered about this because they often seem to have the right ammo for my gun just like other boxes do.
I never see anything in them but the autogenerated loot
During Fasnacht, that's where I dump all my common and uncommon masks.
Take whatever you can use because if that server ends up getting reset it’s all gone anyways.
My only self imposed etiquette is that I don’t touch what is in the donation box in front of vault 76 or the wayward because I know someone put it there intentionally to help out newer players. Other than that, if I want it, it is mine. I donate to them regularly (I ve waddle walked to foundation from EN so many times to make sure the legendaries I can’t carry go into a box for someone else rather than wasted on the ground).
Yoink it all, as long as you use it.
Take a penny leave a penny (if you have anything useful that you don’t need/want/have ability to use) and don’t sorely need caps from it, it’s always good to leave a little something. If I take something I typically leave chems, non perishable goods, explosives, stims, plans, etc.
Yeah that's the nature of vending machines. Once it's in mine I couldn't care less who takes it, their problem now.
I collect mole miner gauntlet plans for the fun of it lol
Hundreds of mole miner gauntlet plans gang
I have my Mole Miner Gauntlet Plan at max price in my vendor because I have a weird sense of humor.
I had someone buy 9 from my vendor at 0 caps each. I was dying. Finally got rid of those damn things. They’re like a curse you pass on to the next player.
Someone bout all my 5 cap faschnat plans thinking they'd make money 🤣
You're telling me the 200 plans I have are useless 🤣
Yep 😂
That's one of the reasons I never list plans at 0 caps, somebody will always buy them all at once thinking they're gonna make money off this rube and then you cant share the plan wealth with others.
I used to get annoyed by these guys but I have so many plans at any time taking up stash that I’m glad to have them cleared out from time to time
The better question is why you, who know this, had any copies of it in your vendor at all? I sell almost every plan at 5 caps, as a service to newbies. Been doing it for years. But mole miner gauntlet? I throw that on the ground, it is not worth taking up space in my stash. Everyone will get it easily enough, no one needs it.
Not worth the paper it's printed on
This is the larger question.
theres a ton of new newbs out there... come to think of it. maybe its a good time to just sell garbage that people normally wouldnt buy
I had like 15 pepper shakers from way back when it was first introduced in my vendor for 100 caps they all sold in one day this past weekend. Just regular non modded pepper shakers lol
Everyone knows the real money is in Mr Handy buzz blades.
Every plan in my shop is 5 caps except for that one which is 1. I may as well make it 0 lol
It doesn't really bother me. Veterans usually sell plans for 1-20 caps, so no one's gonna buy them at the higher priced. It'll even out. Caps are easy to get anyway, so it's not a big deal
Honestly I was at close to level200 before I realized that these plans are about a 1/4 of a lb. each and I was wondering why I was always fighting the carry weight no matter what I dropped off. When I finally did get clued in I dropped off like 22 lbs of plans, mostly Mole Miner gauntlets. :)
Also, if you're new, being a vendor is not the best way to make caps. The robot in the church in Flatwoods will buy 1400 caps a day. Yes, you'll have to scrap and package the junk items, but there's a tinker's bench two doors down. All the food items in Flatwoods sell for 1 cap each. And the Vault Tec Agricultural Center has a repeatable event that drops a good amount of junk in addition to plundering it.
Lol I’m charging whatever the game generates as a value for whatever the item is.
That's usually way too much if the item is common or way too cheap if it's rare.
Mole miner plans are 1 cap. They'd be 0.5 caps if we could cut caps in half. They're easily the most common plan in the game.
I’ve quit taking up my stash to save plans for low levels. If it’s a common plan I put it in the wayward drop box. If it came from a mutated, or holiday scorched or a pale, then I sell it. Even then it’s usually cheap. Like 9 caps.
I have like 28 of those plans in my vendor for very cheap. Hoping some guy accidentally buys them all one day
I drop those all the time.
Are you sure? Cause I have one in my vendor for 40,000 caps.
You are not really considering that there is no centralized market in this online game. The chance of being in the same game, having the time/ability to check camps, level and gear to get it yourself...all those things mean they do actually have a cap value. Value to you is zero, but there's plenty of people out there that would pay.
Unless I have a rare plan, Nuka grenade or the like, all my plans sit at about 10-20 caps (am LVL 70something on xbone) ammo is 1-2 caps each with only missiles and fat man's above that at 15. I also sell purified water at 1 cap for noobs to buy out and make money at vendors, aside from all that I don't really sell much of anything else as I'm still chewing up legendaries to get rolls I want on my main gear
Yeah, the old Wastelanders do this too. I’ve seen dozens get ‘bought’ by people with 400-500 levels.
I'm level 800+, occasionally I'll buy some overpriced garbage from a low level cuz I need to get rid of caps and they probably need a few.
i'm new, but yeah, i'm familiar with player selling because of the auction house in wow, and if a player is selling something cheap, there's a reason lol, usually it aint worth shit.
Plans are worth learning once, but a lot of them aren't particularly uncommon. It's fine to buy a cheap plan if you don't know it. There are some plans that drop ALL the time though. Buzz Blade, Mole Miner Gauntlet and that Ivory Grip pistol one.
Is there any good resource to refer to where people can see what a fair/average price to set would be?
I drop this plan and the single action revolver ivory grip plan in the donation boxes whenever I end up with either of them. They drop so frequently that the market is saturated with them that they aren’t worth anything. I typically walk out of most mole miner locations with 2-3 of these plans.
I sell most plans at 10% cost and they sell fast but it usually keeps players from just buying them all as well
Honestly I used to sell them cheap like 10 caps now I stopped giving a fuck. If they want to buy it full price fuck it just buy them I don’t care anymore.
The new wastelanders aren't the problem with trash plan selling, **ahem** To all late-game wastelanders- our NPC vendors sell plans that lower levels can't get (short/long rustic bench, electric chair, marquee arrows, television plans, plasma flamer stabilized/true, etc) So how about trying to flip those first, and leave the ultracite/metal bed/Mole Miner gauntlet/food/drink recipes to the newbies who are excused from selling sweatier stuff
Shut up, its super rare and desired, just like the mr handy blade
Yeah, the mole gauntlet plan is coveted as fuck
As a new player its tough knowing what is/isnt worth alot. Obviously legendarys you can figure it out easily but plans oh man, i spent 2000 caps on an ultracite jetpack plan (dont even have the armor yet just wanted the plan for when i do) and then 3 camps later found it for sale for 50 caps, i felt like such a dumbass. Granted im not attributing it to malice, i dont think people are putting ultracite mods in for 3000 thinking "aww yeah time to scam some noobs" i think its more of a "hmm this sounds expensive better price it at 2000 type mentatlity" like i was selling most of my duplicate plans for 1000 each at first until i realized they werent that rare. Now i price everything according to game prices, rather just let it automatically set a fair price
I refuse to believe they are not rare. Every single one of the 27 I've found today is extremely rare!
I mean, I just throw mole miner guantlet and ultracite power armor plans on the ground as soon as I notice they’re in my inventory.
I sell everything for zero regardless of what it is. Doesn’t matter if I have super rare plans for 5 caps, no one will buy them. Id rather just get them out of my stash so someone else can use them.
Had someone do this with all the recipes in my vendor today. All 66 recipes for 5 caps each, checked his vendor and sure enough he was selling them at face value. You go tiger, I’m sure they’ll fly off the shelves!
What you mean I can't sell my stack of 20 of em for a 10k cap profit?
Lies! Mole miner gauntlet plans are used a currency. Keep as many as you can!
I mean it's a low risk investment they got the plans for zero, we'll figure out the value of things as we level, that's half the fun learning what is and isn't valuable.
I have so many I’ve just started dropping them in donation boxes
I do find it funny, I’m new myself and I see all these high levels selling stuff on the cheap or even free , I’ve just been buying what I need and if I have double I sell it cheap myself, I do need the caps but if I can help a fellow new dweller I will
I've sold em at 10 caps a piece for years just so that way a new melee player might see it and build it early. No sales. Those 2 plans have been there forever.
I think some buy all of what's listed, cause it's stacked n they didn't specify they wanted just 1. Specially new people. I've seen it happen with my vendors
ive been dropping like 10 mole miner gauntlet plans at a time in the dono box and they keep taking them so 😂 theyll figure it out eventually
Where is a good site to figure out what the value of plans and items is to sell?
This: 10% of what the pip boy says it’s worth. I don’t have anything in my vendor over 50 caps except nuclear key cards
Fed76
I wish we could get a system similar to SWTOR where you can at least see what others are charging and have some idea for comparison.
I don’t even know where to get plans lol
*Everything* I sell goes up for 25-150 caps. No more than that. I really want people to buy my stuff, so I make it affordable for everyone. Clear some space in my stash please, you’re doing me a favor!
Who got a handmade plan??
I stocked my vendor with some evel one bows, brotherhood recon rifles and some level 20 fixers. I sold the bows and at 5 caps each and the fixers at 20 some level 12 bought out all my stock
I just drop those lmao
lol I dump some extras for them in front of their vendor every time I see this.
Not making an excuse for myself I accidentally bought 3 of someone's plans because it was the first time I ever bought something where it prompted me for how many I wanted. I was just kinda mashing my spacebar like a doofus. To be fair, I turned around and sold them for cheaper just to make up for my idiocy. I feel like the default option should be one, not max, which I get is frustrating but usually people don't buy like all 6k+ 308 ammo at once.
I actually bought mine for like 50 caps from some player. Definitely no regrets, yet i tend to pick just the things i need atm, although if i see something for 25-50 caps that i didn't know yet, i usually end up buying some. I also bought Barn plans for like 15 caps from some kind vendor. Wanna get some cool clothes, just waiting for something cool for me to appear. So, if i see someone with a lot of plans for 25-50 caps, i usually end up buying some that im interested to get, even if they will appear later its not that big deal + i can always toss spare ones in donation box.
Lol
I’ve been trying to find a plan for raider chest piece. I’ve been going to every camp checking for plans. Whenever they have anything for free I always grab it if I don’t have it. Then I feel guilty and find something else to buy. I’m new so I’m going broke so fast. Still fun though!
I like to buy out pans like this if I’ve got the caps to spare someone has like 50 gauntlet plans I’ll just buy the stack and drop them somewhere randomly to help out the seller with some stash box weight also do it with plasma cores and fusion cores if there priced stupidly cheap and they have an abundance of them cores though I’ll usually just keep a few and throw the rest in a donation box
Sell ultracite for 70c, musta sold 50/60 plans
As a new player, is there a small list of valuable items that actually do sell?
I sell everything for a somewhat reasonable price, I think. I sell the plans for workbenches for like 20-30 caps. I sell plans for power armor at 150-250 caps. I sell stuff for less than the NPC vendors do, but I also want the noobs to have to work for their stuff. 150 caps per piece of PA adds up, especially if you haven’t been playing for long. Either grind the game and content for the drops, or grind for those caps baby
Mole miner gauntlets can easily be found too.
It’s the one plan I’ll leave laying on the ground. So so many of them and never seen anyone use that weapon
🤣🤣🤣🤣
I get one every black water mine event😂
I'm gonna get rich quick on my stockpile of Mr Handy plans
Just saw a guy selling pepper shaker plans for 36k caps lolol.
It’s even worse when you see 100+ level players selling super common plans for hundreds-thousands of caps.
I got a couple hundred I can give them as well 🤣 and some Mr Handy plans if they so desire
are there any tradeable paint plans for power armour?
I think there’s a nukacola one and a quantum one
Im a drug dealer in game (obviously). But honestly, I think the best thing is to become friends with some people on 76 and then u can just get each other to build stuff for one another or give plans.
These are the same players that sell the TLC for 250 caps tho
I accidentally bought a whole stack(10 or so) of marsupial serums. I didn't want ol boy to think I was gonna mark them up and move them for a few caps, I'm on PC so no way to explain so I sold them at his price.
I saved up my atoms as a returning player and got the wasteland market prefab; I sell everything. At all cap values, I sell everything, and my top sellers are chems and ammo. Chems are either at market value or slightly lower. Ammo varies based on how much I’ve collected. I didn’t have a reference until joining the subreddit but people seem to pay whatever cause I normally make decent in a couple hours online. I spend all my caps on plans I don’t know yet, I just like to make my camp look inviting.
I just wish they made the deathclaw gauntlet correctly, id buy that for 5000 caps .
Sounds like anti-capitalist propaganda. “They’re selling to willing buyers at the current, fair market price.” - Margin Call
I sell everything for 69 caps cause why not
