How to Get the Raider Power Armor in Fallout 76
The most convenient way to get the Raider inFallout 76is by doing the Key to the Past quest at the Top of the World. Other methods for getting the Raider Power Armor include looting its spawn locations by server-hopping and finding it through Random Encounters. (The Raider PAplans cannot be purchased from vendors.)
Get a Full Set of the Raider PA in the Key to the Past Quest
DuringFallout 76’s main quest line, there’s a mission called the Key to the Past. To start, players must visit Rose at the Top of the World and then retrieve the five missing holotape key fragments. As a reward, Rose gives players a full-set Raider Power Armor that requires no crafting and is ready to use.
Find an Abandoned Raider Power Armor at Random Encounters
There’s a chance of encountering a premade Raider Power Armor at Savage Divide. One is near Hawkey’s Refuge, and the other is near the Whitespring resort. However, these spawns are random, and players might need to server-hop several times before getting them.
The Random Encounters—Raider’s Last Laugh and Personal Meltdown—reward players with the talking suit. It is a special variant of the Power Armor that plays a recording of the previous owner. But stat-wise, it’s just the same as any other version.
Server-Hop and Loot the Raider PA Locations
Pleasant Valley Cabin is one ofthe best locations to get a complete setof Raider Power Armor. Other locations are North of the Charleston Capital Building (inside the locked container) and under the West River Gorge Bridge (in the hidden vault). But since Power Armor spawns are random, players must server-hop to obtain the desired set.
Server-hopping means changing the game server. It’s the act of quitting Fallout 76 into the main menu and entering another world with new spawns.
How to Get the Raider Power Armor Plans
The plans of the Raider Power Armor can only be obtained through treasure hunting. Basically,players must farm hidden treasurefor a chance to get any of the six blueprints. But it’s totally RNG-based, and there’s no guarantee of getting the right plans.
How to Get the Raider Power Armor Mods
Raider Vendors sell all Raider PA mods. To get them, visit Vendor Bot Resin at Pleasant Valley Ski Resort and buy the plans with Caps.
