To begin the Enclave questline in Fallout 76, first complete the "One of Us" main quest by joining the Enclave. This quest becomes available after reaching level 20. From there, you will unlock further Enclave missions and delve into the storyline.
Starting the Enclave Questline in Fallout 76
To start the Enclave questline in Fallout 76, you first need to reach level 20. This requirement ensures that you have a basic understanding of the game's mechanics and have explored some of the Appalachian wasteland. Once you have reached level 20, you will receive a miscellaneous quest called "One of Us." This quest will lead you to The Whitespring Bunker, a location in the game where the Enclave resides.
Locating The Whitespring Bunker
The Whitespring Bunker is located in the southeastern part of the map, near Whitespring Resort. The entrance to the bunker is discreetly hidden behind a secure door in the mountainside. To find the entrance, head to the Whitespring Resort and look for a green ornate building nearby. Once you locate the building, search for an innocuous-looking back door that serves as the entrance to The Whitespring Bunker.
Entering The Whitespring Bunker
Upon finding the entrance to The Whitespring Bunker, approach the secure door and attempt to open it. You will be prompted to "Access The Whitespring Bunker" by interacting with the terminal located next to the door. Once you interact with the terminal, a short cutscene will play, introducing you to the Enclave, a secretive faction that operates within the bunker.
Initiating the "One of Us" Quest
After the cutscene, you will be directed inside the bunker. Follow the hallway until you reach the main room where you will find MODUS, the artificial intelligence that governs the Enclave. Speak with MODUS and accept the quest "One of Us." This quest will introduce you to the Enclave's operations and initiate your journey to become a member of this clandestine organization.
Completing Quest Objectives
Throughout the "One of Us" questline, you will be tasked with various objectives that involve interacting with Enclave facilities within The Whitespring Bunker. These objectives may include retrieving items, accessing terminals, and conducting research on behalf of the Enclave. By completing these tasks, you will gain a deeper understanding of the Enclave's history, goals, and operations.
Joining the Enclave
As you progress through the questline, you will eventually be given the opportunity to officially join the Enclave. This step marks your formal induction into the faction, granting you access to unique Enclave-themed items, quests, and rewards. By joining the Enclave, you align yourself with one of the most powerful groups in the Fallout universe, opening up new storylines and quests for you to explore.
Benefits of Joining the Enclave
