Much like its offline peers, Fallout 76’s carry weight limits how many items your characters can take with them while adventuring. Knowing where to look for backpack plan locations can ease some of that burden by letting you carry more.
Here is everything we know about Fallout 76 backpack plan locations to help with increasing your character’s carry weight.
Fallout 76 backpack plan locations
The first place counting among the Fallout 76 backpack plan locations is none other than the Morgantown Airport Terminal in Appalachia’s The Forest region.
Venturing inside and reaching its top floor will lead you to an Overseer’s Cache. Inside, you’ll find the small backpack plan.
Although using the same model as the standard backpack, Fallout 76’s small backpack only provides half the carry weight, up to a maximum of +30 at level 50.
The location of Fallout 76’s standard backpack and its plan is the Pioneer Scout camp (also known as Camp Lewis) found in Appalachia’s Toxic Valley region.
Both the regular standard and its plan are given to players upon completing The Order of the Tadpole quest which begins by reading one of the Pioneer Scout posters found in train stations or at your C.A.M.P.
You’ll then need to visit Scout Leader Jaggy at Camp Lewis and complete the four parts of the quest. Here’s what they involve:
Demonstrate Kindness
- Revive another player using a stimpak.
Demonstrate Helpfulness
- Speak to Scout Leader Pompy at Kiddie Corner cabins, then pick up five toxic mutagenic waste and deposit them into a containment barrel.
Demonstrate Bravery
- Talk to Pioneer Scout Leader Treadly at Dolly Sods wilderness. Collect a bloatfly gland, a bloodbug proboscis, radroach meat, a stingwing barb and a tick blood sac, then return to Treadly.
Demonstrate Growth
- Earn 3 Tadpole Badges by completing Tadpole Challenges found in the World section of the menu.
Upon completing all tasks above, return to Scout Leader Jaggy and turn in the quest. You’ll become a Possum scout and get your standard backpack – which grants +60 carry weight at max level – and plans to craft and upgrade standard backpacks alongside other rewards.
Lastly, backpack mod plans can be purchased for varying amounts of Possum Badges from Possum vending machines found in two locations: Camp Adams and Camp Lewis.
