Summary

  • Raids in Fallout 76 are challenging but offer valuable rewards like unique trophy plans, 4-star box mods, and named weapons.
  • Completing Raid sections can award players with Vulcan Power Armor parts, mods, and Enclave Secret Operative Underarmor.
  • Random legendary items from raids can be scrapped for Scrip or used to craft legendary effects, making them valuable for farming.

Raids are by far the most difficult missions in Fallout 76. Each section of a raid has a unique challenge designed to push veteran players to the limit. From the EN06 Robot that can obliterate the player in a couple of seconds, to the Ultragenetic Mole Miner, the Gleaming Depths are filled with tough bosses that need to be taken down.

While completing a Raid is incredibly challenging, the rewards are more than worth the effort. Each Raid Mission has its own unique reward that players can unlock upon completing a mission for the first time. Not only that, but there are plenty of rare and highly sought-after rewards that players have a chance of receiving upon completing a Raid section. This list will go over some of the best rewards available.

9 Honorable Mention

Ultracite Generator

Ultracite Generator

There are plenty of CAMP generators that players can buy and unlock in Fallout 76. While they all largely work the same way, some variants are more in demand than others. Since the Ultracite Generator is one of the newer variants, there are lots of players who want to get their hands on the plan to craft it.

Unfortunately, the Ultracite Generator, while cool, is very big, making it pretty difficult to fit neatly within a CAMP. However, because it's new, it's pretty popular.

8 4-Star Legendary Box Mods

Great Upgrades For Armor And Weapons

4-Star Box Mod

Certain Legendary Box Mods sell for more than just Caps. While the value of various box mods fluctuates, 4-Star Legendary Box Mods tend to be worth a lot more than 1-3-star mods. This is mainly because they are much harder to come by. Players have a small chance of being awarded a 4-Star Legendary Box Mod upon completing a Raid segment.

These mods can be applied to armor pieces and weapons, and they give the item an extra boost. From a mod that increases the player's overall damage resistance to one that increases the player's damage output while using melee weapons, there's a mod to suit all playstyles.

6 Section Trophy Rewards

A Cool Trophy To Show Off To Others

Ultracite Trophy

The first time you complete a section of a Raid, you'll be awarded a trophy tied to that section. These trophies can be crafted and displayed at the player's CAMP. While they don't do much, they are used to show off the fact that the player has been able to complete various Raid sections. There's one trophy for each section. Each one can be seen below:

  • Plan: EN06 Guardian Bot Raid Trophy
  • Plan: Tunnel Boring Drill Raid Trophy
  • Plan: Enclave Epsilon Squad Raid Trophy
  • Plan: Ultragenetic Stalker Raid Trophy
  • Plan: Ultracite Terror Raid Trophy

5 Vulcan Power Armor Parts

The Newest Power Armor Set In Fallout 76

Vulcan Helmet

Vulcan Power Armor is among the best sets in the game. It offers the player a great deal of protection while also giving them a boost to stamina regen and an increase to how long a Fusion Core lasts.

Getting a full set can be a bit of a challenge since players only have a relatively small chance of receiving a piece upon completing a Raid section. There is also a small chance for the player to be awarded the plan to craft a particular armor piece. The plans are more highly sought-after than the individual pieces. That said, they are much harder to obtain.

4 Vulcan Power Armor Mod Plans

Craft Upgrades For Your Vulcan Power Armor Set

Vulcan Power Armor Mods

There's a long list of mods for Vulcan Power Armor. Players have a small chance of getting one of the plans upon completing a Raid section. While some mods, such as the headlamps, don't really do a lot for the player, other mods can help to make Vulcan Power Armor even more powerful. From the Emergency Protocols mod to the Vulcan jet Pack, there are plenty of great mods that players can unlock as they make their way through The Gleaming Depths.

3 Unique Named Weapons

Craft Or Earn A Unique Named Weapon

Unique Named Weapon In Fallout 76

Named weapons have been a part of Fallout 76 for a long time. For the most part, these weapons aren't typically all that powerful. However, there are a few interesting weapons available for completing Raids that are worth keeping an eye out for. Some players enjoy trying to collect each of the new weapons to showcase at their CAMP.

There are two ways a player can receive one of the Raids' weapons. The first is as a direct reward. The second is by being awarded the plan to craft one of the unique weapons. Similar to the Vulcan Power Armor set, receiving the plan to craft the item is often better than receiving the item itself. The list of named weapons can be seen below:

  • Lickety-Split
  • Boiling Point
  • Resolve Breaker
  • Cauterizer
  • Valkyrie
  • Flatliner
  • Ultracite Terror Sword
  • Drill Fist

2 Enclave Secret Operative Underarmor

A Cool Underarmor Variant

Fallout 76 Underarmor

There are lots of underarmor variants in Fallout 76. Each one has its own unique appearance. Enclave Secret Operative Underarmor has a sleek design, making it a pretty desirable piece. With the right build and mods, this underarmor can be very effective.

This can be hard to obtain since players only have a 10% chance of being awarded it upon completing the final stage of a Raid. This stage requires the player to take down the Ultracite Terror. As for the various mods to upgrade the underarmor, they can be obtained outside of Raids.

1 Random Legendary Items

Great For Farming Box Mods

Legendary Cryolator In Fallout 76

Completing events and killing legendary enemies typically gives the player a legendary item or two. These can be scrapped down for some junk and Scrip. Not only that, but players have a small chance to receive either a Legendary Box Mod or the ability to craft a legendary effect.

Raids are pretty good for veteran players who want to grind for legendary items. While it's not the fastest way of gaining legendary items, since there's a chance to be awarded a 4-Star Legendary Box Mod, the added bonus of a few extra legendary pieces is always a welcome addition.
