How to Collect Gifts during Holiday Scorched in Fallout 76

To collect gifts during the Holiday Scorched event, you’ll want to obtain Christmas wrap from vendors at train stations to craft gifts yourself, loot gifts by killing Holiday Scorched, and use Santa Collectrons to get gifts. All three methods will net you a ton of gifts and increase your chances of unlocking the new plans.

In addition, if you are a Fallout 1st subscriber, you can use a private world to your advantage. You’ll want to claim all workshops across Appalachia and then place a Santa Collectron at all workshops. To make this easier, you can create one Santa Collectron station, blueprint it, and then apply it to the rest of the workshops. The key is to elevate the platform three stairs high and enclose it with walls.

You can confine the collectron within a single square using four walls if executed correctly. Remember to position the wall before the robot’s exit as the final step. Otherwise, you won’t be able to place the Santa Collectron station due to the exit being blocked.

Now that you have used our Fallout 76 Holiday Scorched Guide, you’ll know exactly where to get the new plans to unlock festive loot for your Vault Dweller. Check out our Fallout 76 hub for more guides like our Fallout 76 Event Calendar so you don’t miss out on any events like Holiday Scorched.
