And a look at Steel Reign’s trailer
Fallout 76continues to improve, to the point where it’s basically a new game at this point. Before we enter The Pitt (which was teased at E3) it’s time to enjoy the Steel Reign update, which continues the storyline of the Brotherhood with another free patch.
Bethesda has released the full patch notes for Steel Reign, which is live across all platforms (Bethesda.net, Microsoft Store, Steam, PS4, Xbox One), alongside of season 5. As previously stated the big draw beyond the campaign bits include legendary crafting,which you’re able to read more about here.
Legendary crafting should give the game new life in terms of its endgame, as folks endlessly attempt to make the best gear possible. The best part is that the system applies to both weapons and armor, so you’re able to customize basically your entire loadout. This is on top of all of the shelter customization options and the addition of player vaults in prior patches. At the very least, you can engage in a few morerole-playingelements in this game that was mostly devoid of them at launch.
Here’s a look at the finer points of the patch in video form:
There’s too many changes to list here, but here’s a collection of the bigger stuff:
WALLET CHANGES
STEEL REIGN QUESTLINE
This update brings all-new quests to Fallout 76 with the Steel Reign questline, which picks up right where you left off with the Brotherhood of Steel at the end of Steel Dawn.
Completion of the Steel Reign questline will award the player with brand new items.
LEGENDARY CRAFTING
With this update, we’re implementing the Legendary Crafting system, which you can use to turn normal items into legendary items, re-roll your existing legendary items’ attributes, and even upgrade or downgrade their star-ratings.
LEGENDARY POWER ARMOR
In addition to weapons and normal armor, Legendary Crafting can also be used to create pieces of Legendary Power Armor.
