Fallout 76: Pemmican Collector Guide

The Pemmican Collector is a unique and practical resource-generating item introduced in Fallout 76 during Season 17. It offers players a reliable way to produce pemmican, a meat-based food item with valuable buffs. This guide will cover everything you need to know about the Pemmican Collector, from its benefits to how to obtain and use it effectively.

What is the Pemmican Collector?

The Pemmican Collector is a C.A.M.P. resource that passively generates pemmican over time. Pemmican provides the following buffs when consumed:

• Restores 4 HP per second for 59 minutes.
• Grants +6 Endurance for the same duration.
• Note: The effects do not stack if multiple pemmicans are consumed.

This makes it an excellent resource for players who frequently engage in combat or exploration, as it boosts survivability and stamina.

How to Obtain the Pemmican Collector

There are two primary ways to unlock this item:

1. Season 17 Scoreboard: Found on Page 11 of the Pioneer Scouts Skyline Valley rewards track, requiring 40 tickets to claim.
2. Gold Bullion Purchase: Available from Mortimer (Raider faction vendor) for 1,250 Gold Bullion, provided you have Raider Ally reputation.

If you're looking to maximize your gameplay efficiency in Fallout 76, don't overlook the importance of caps when using the Pemmican Collector. Fallout 76 Caps serve as the primary currency in the game, enabling you to trade for essential resources, repair equipment, and even fast travel across Appalachia. By generating pemmican passively from the Collector and selling excess pemmican to vendors, players can establish a reliable caps farming strategy. This dual-purpose setup not only bolsters your endurance and survivability but also ensures a steady flow of caps for upgrading gear or acquiring rare items.

Building the Pemmican Collector

To build the Pemmican Collector in your C.A.M.P., follow these steps:

1. Navigate to the Resources section in your build menu.
2. Craft it using:

   
   

   • 3 Steel
   • 5 Wood
3. Place it in your C.A.M.P. (Note: It cannot be built inside shelters).
4. Only one Pemmican Collector can be placed per C.A.M.P. or workshop.

• Durability: The pemmican does not spoil while stored in the collector.

Advanced Building Tips

For aesthetic customization, players can use advanced building techniques such as merging items:

1. Place the Pemmican Collector on top of a campfire for a decorative effect.
2. Use a pressure plate to subtly sink the collector into the fire, creating a glowing "trail food" vibe.

This technique enhances the visual appeal of your C.A.M.P., making it stand out while maintaining functionality.

Is It Worth It?

The Pemmican Collector is particularly beneficial for players with the Carnivore mutation or those who rely on meat-based food buffs. Its passive production ensures a steady supply of endurance-boosting pemmicans without requiring additional effort, making it an essential addition for survivalists and combat-focused builds.

For players who enjoy customizing their C.A.M.P., it also adds a unique thematic element as part of your resource setup.

The Pemmican Collector is a must-have for Fallout 76 players looking to enhance their endurance and healing capabilities while adding a practical resource generator to their C.A.M.P.
