In *Atomfall*, Atomic Batteries are pivotal for both advancing the storyline and enhancing your gameplay through bartering. If you're eager to amass these crucial items, here's your comprehensive guide on securing Atomic Batteries in *Atomfall*.
How To Find Atomic Batteries With Leads in Atomfall
To progress in *Atomfall*'s main story, you'll need to find and deposit Atomic Batteries within The Interchange. The game provides several Leads to help you locate these batteries. Here's a rundown of the most effective leads I've discovered:
- “A Fruitful Trade” - This lead points you to Molly, a Trader west of Wyndham Village, who acquired an Atomic Battery from the Reverend. Molly is willing to barter this battery, particularly if you offer Molotov Cocktails.
- “Batteries and All” - Located in the sewer, this lead suggests that the druids in Casterfell Woods possess an Atomic Battery. Navigate to the southwest of Casterfell Woods, find the door flanked by blue fire torches, and enter the Castle Ruins. The battery lies beside the High Priestess, who overlooks a valley.
- “Battery Request at the Skethermoor Depot” - This lead directs you to the Skethermoor Vehicle Depot at coordinates 43.4 E, 74.6 N. Look for a blue hatch next to two greenhouses on a hill. Inside, clear out the Outlaws, navigate through the rooms, and use a key found in a vent to unlock the room containing the Atomic Battery. Don't forget to take Radiation Resistance before entering.
- “Molly Sold a Battery to the Vicar” - This lead can be ignored if you've already secured the Reverend’s battery. Otherwise, it reveals another battery sold to the vicar at St. Katherine’s Church in Wyndham Village.
- “Revered Got His Hands on a Battery” - A note from Alf informs you of the Reverend's battery in St. Katherine’s Church. Upon entering, you can blackmail the Reverend for the key to his chest, which contains the Atomic Battery, by promising silence over a murder he's covering up.
- “Spare Batteries at the Dam” - This lead points to a battery at the Dam in the northwest of Casterfell Wood at 20.9 E, 90.9 N. The battery is in the electrical area on the right side as you face the Dam. Enter the Control Room, pull the Substation Override lever until the right light turns red, and safely retrieve the battery.
Can You Barter for Batteries in Atomfall? Answered
If you're struggling to locate Atomic Batteries, bartering offers another avenue. Molly, for instance, has a battery you can trade for, and other traders may also have them due to their rotating inventory. When bartering, pay attention to the color-coded icons indicating a trader's preference for items: green means highly favored, while red means least favored. Experimenting with different items can lead to better deals when trading for Atomic Batteries.
How To Extract Atomic Batteries from Robots in Atomfall
In *Atomfall*, you'll encounter large, lethal, armored robots patrolling the Zone, powered by Atomic Batteries. To extract a battery, target robots equipped with flamethrowers from a distance using a rifle. Shoot the red barrels to overheat the robot, stunning it. Then, quickly approach and remove the Atomic Battery from its back.
*Atomfall* is now available on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and through Xbox Game Pass, offering players multiple platforms to dive into this thrilling post-apocalyptic adventure.
