8 Best Raids Rewards In Fallout 76
Raids in Fallout 76 are not easy, but players who overcome them can obtain some incredible rewards.
While it does still take time to acquire large amounts of Gold Bullion, there are a few things that players can do to speed up the process dramatically. This topic will go over some of the best ways of obtaining it in Fallout 76.
1 Season Rewards
Claim Gold Bullion By Ranking Up Through The Season
There are a few Gold Bullion rewards that players can pick up during a season. Players can typically get close to 1000 Gold Bullion during a season, which is very good considering that the challenges players need to complete to rank up through the season are pretty basic.
Players who have an active Fallout First Membership will be able to progress faster and unlock more rewards, but even without the membership bonuses, players can earn a respectable amount of Gold Bullion just by completing some daily and weekly challenges.
2 Grind During Gold Rush Weekends
Hand In Twice The Amount Of Treasury Notes
There are limits to how many Treasury Notes players can turn in for Gold Bullion each day. On a typical day, players can only cash in 40 Treasury Notes. Each Treasury Note handed in by the player is worth 10 Gold Bullion. This means that players can only earn 400 Gold Bullion per regular day.
During Gold Rush weekends, players can turn in double the amount of Treasury Notes, meaning players can earn 800 Gold Bullion via the Treasury Note system each day during Gold Rush weekends. Players who want to stockpile their Gold Bullion should consider grinding the game ahead of time to earn plenty of Treasury Notes to hand in over the Gold Rush weekend.
3 Buy It From Smiley
A Slimy Trader With Plenty Of Gold
Smiley is a rather shady figure who hangs out upstairs in the Wayward. He's more than happy to sell the player Gold Bullion for Caps. The maximum amount of Gold Bullion the player can buy each week is 300. As for his prices, they are pretty steep:
- 1000 Caps for 50 Gold Bullion
- 2000 Caps for 100 Gold Bullion
- 3000 Caps for 150 Gold Bullion
- 4000 Caps for 200 Gold Bullion
- 5000 Caps for 250 Gold Bullion
- 6000 Caps for 300 Gold Bullion
While costly, buying additional Gold Bullion from Smiley is a great way to earn that little bit extra without having to do much work.
