Legendary creatures will now always drop a legendary item of matching rank.

So do the drops now match the creatures, or is it the other way around?

It will match to their rank! Only on rare occasions, you may see a lower-star item so I worded that a bit vague there

Fixed an issue with the 40% Power Attack Damage not correctly dealing damage.

What changed? Is it better or worse?

As far as I understand from the dev notes, it wasn't working at all and was not giving the 40% damage bonus. That's fixed now!

So nothing about the explosive aspect of cryo damage being nerfed. Guess we’ll need to wait & see

What specific info are you looking for here? I've got a few different things for cryo between perks and weapons.

Half the time the patch notes don't mention like 80% of weapon balance changes, so it could be it made it in but isn't mentioned above. I think you/we will have to test it afterwards.

The sheer volume and specific nuances with weapon balancing is almost impossible to present in a palatable way to read and understand if you're not a developer. I tried to get what I could in there but if you see any missing notes please let me know.

Gonna be a lot of fun scrapping the 500 cards from those 100 packs.

Bulk scrapping is a great idea! Not sure if this is on their radar already but I'll let them know we'd like that as well down the line.

Thank you /u/Ladydevann for posting the update notes so quickly. I'm very excited about this update. I was playing it a lot on the PTS.

IMHO you guys did a great job with this one. I'm happy that Union PA will now be dropping and no more 1 star disappointment from 3 star enemies.

One question though if I may? When does the new community calendar come out?

Glad you love it!! We've got the community calendar in our discord here! It's also going out on social in a few moments and will be in the final Inside the Vault for this year next thursday. Translated versions are a bit delayed so anything outside of English, check back on :)

Not a dumb question at all and yes! We've also recently-ish improved the changes of learning the harder to find ones.

Actually we managed to get it figured out shortly after I had made this post. Turns out Enclave events and Starred enemies didn't count but killing Scorchbeasts gave progression. But next time we run into an issue and we can't figure it out I'll be sure to have him visit the site.

Thanks for the update! I will let the team know about that bug as well.

I am not savvy with PC performance tips, but our CS team should be able to help you troubleshoot and optimize. (help.bethesda.net)

Comment

Last week I spent around... I'd estimate 6 hours at the DMV? I don't know who wrote that quest but I swear they frequent the same one I went to XD

Comment

Hiya! Our CS team should be able to reset that quest for your friend. Tell him to visit our help site (help.bethesda.net) and we'll get them taken care of :)

So how does the team choose what weapons get paints as rewards, and how does the team design them?
76 has its fair share of both subtle and wild weapon paints, and I'm assuming Atlantic city is no different, so I'm curious how does the team go about picking which weapons get that treatment and how does the process of creating them go?

Erin:
For items in general art direction seeks out input from both employees and players for ideas of what players would love.
Internally we all get to voice our opinions on which concept art designs are our favs. Once the design is picked art gets started arting!

Discord User coffee888:
In the PTS, it appears that the Muni Armor can be crafted as an item level [60]. Are there any plans to raise the level cap for weapons/armor other than the Muni Armor from the current [45/50] to higher levels in the future? If so, would you consider implementing a system to increase the level of already crafted items?

Fahad:
We are exited about the new armour set and this set in particular will be actively adjusted before it goes live to the wider community, however we're actively looking at ways to improve weapons past their current level cap.

Would it be possible for some people from Bethesda staff to share their thoughts on our most common feedback suggestions? We would like to know the Devs' opinions regarding our suggestions. Are they too demanding or not? If so, in what way? If the Devs would propose something different but taking into account some particular suggestion what would differ from our suggestion?

Stephanie:
We love hearing feedback. It shows us that people are engaging with the game and it's always exciting to see people interact with the content we make. It also shows us what issues are important to the community and helps us hone in our focus.

Orlando references the “Management “ but who are they?

Stephanie:

Orlando refers to "Management" as Mr. Otis... that name sounds oddly familiar 🤔

Discord User: KARU

Hello.

There are questions about future content. Will we ever have access to a new big open world in the future where we can explore in any direction we want? So that it is not associated with expeditions.

Stephanie:

Atlantic City is open to tourists -- players will be able to explore our new Atlantic City locations without actively being on an Expeditions mission in the near future!

Discord user: Flakles

I'm sure you guys must see players in the community constantly asking if we can get a more open world, traditional fallout DLC experience from expeditions, something like Far Harbor being the constantly echoed request. And I'm sure you guys must've at least experimented with it already - My question is, what sort of things would hold a choice like that back?

Maybe definitively providing a 'why not' will put the matter to rest among the community.

Josh Moretto (QD):

Hi, Flakles. While we continue to expand the places players can visit outside our map, the focus of Fallout 76 is and remains Appalachia. That said, players will be able to visit Atlantic City for traditional story quests and exploration outside of Expeditions in Patch 50.
