Also always use light foot perk or whatever its called when shopping at other camps it negates all floor traps including player traps so have fun
I mean i play on PC so when some clown pulls that crap i just alt F4 and load back in about 2 minutes. Some guy out in the Mire used the punching bag to bait me through his wall... i knew what it was but wanted to see how he set it up. I just hit alt F4 once my curiosity was satiated.
There is obviously a problem with explosive bait because of the way its used, like to sabotage events and such, that this should be removed from the game. Ive literally used these one time for a mission and never since
Thats the main weapon of choice for griefing
or make it do no structural damage
i am going to explosive bait my own base :D
Bethesda should give players the option to make their camps indestructible ie pacifist mode
And then ??? Where the fun for pvp players ???
@@Mxlch999 pvp with people who wants to pvp, leve alone players who want to mind their own business
hell no it's the post apocliptic waste land no seat beat for you
Really bathrobe man? So if someone came and destroyed your camp you'd be ok with it? I doubt so, if your gameplay is ruining someone else's gameplay then that's not ok. It's called common respect, don't be a douche.
@@bathrobeman66if you can’t even spell the word apocalyptic you shouldn’t even comment 😂
Good tips. :) I've only ever been harassed once. Two guys kept trying to get me to pvp and wouldn't leave me alone in my camp. They followed me into one of my rooms and so I put a lock on the door. So to get out they had either had to fast travel or pick the lock (and get wanted). They fast traveled and I blocked them.
I feel it's sad for me that I pay for fallout first mostly to avoid griefers. It has happened to me rarely, but when it happens and they kill me (my camp is barebones soooo it's not a target really), it turns me off from playing in public servers, which I honestly like doing for events.
Good, if u really get that upset from dying then u shouldn't be playing online games to Begin with
The only time I got griefed is when 2 level 200 somethings blew up my camp when I was level 25 and brand new to the game. Now I'm level 300 something I couldn't imgaine doing that to a fresh player.
Lmao get shit on
Some people grief anyone low or high level everything goes sadly.
@@lues8743 Try it now, see what happens.
@Raging Kiwi -Yeeeeaaaahhh, literally me- level 25. 💁🏽♂️ I’m just minding my business doing a little camp hopping, trying to stretch out my map, and spend a few caps here and there while trying to wrap my mind around some of these amazing camps I’m landing in (I’ve still got wobbly baby deer legs, can’t even seem to figure out how to get stuff in the display cases.) And then out of nowhere, everything is on fire. Don’t worry though, they definitely made sure to wait until I was done putting my caps in their machines before they went rogue, so it’s fine. 🙄🙄🙄
@@alxxxakorxxxz3177 *Standard Griefers*
You don't need to logout to go AFK. Just go into sneak and fast travel to a location that has low traffic and squat in a bush while being AFK. Sneaking removes your map marker and hiding in a bush near a low traffic area means you can probably squat there for 8 hours and nobody will spot you. Example if you go to Autumn Acre Cabin, turn left to face north and go hide in a bush where you cannot see the road anymore the chances of anyone finding you are near impossible. There's nothing north of the fast travel spot for players to want to go to, no resource nodes, no random encounters, just nothing of interest, what players will go there for is the cabin, the treasure map south of the cabin, the random encounter northeast past the cabin, or the hunters shack east of it, not your bush in the woods that has nothing of interest in that direction or nearby.
You can also go squat on a toilet in any train station, everyone has already checked the toilets for loot then ignores them after and nobody checks them for AFK players. If someone's new to the game and does look in the room they will get a surprise... catch you on the toilet lol.
At level 20, a level 68 started pounding on me with a Power Fist while I was in a player vendor. I'm sure this has worked many times for him... This is my fifth character and he's wearing a full set of Unyielding armor and carrying a Bloodied FFR Vats cost Submachine (.45)... After I killed him, I sent him a message that simply said "Oops", he didn't respond...
wow u log into his account ?
The reports on here have definitely made me realize the best Fallout 76 anti-griefing tip is to play on console. Besides lacking many of the cheats and hacks, the extra monthly fee for Xbox Live or PlayStation Plus goes towards moderators on top of what Bethesda offers. That’s two layers of protection, and reporting users to Xbox or PlayStation can be far more devastating than on PC where the game is cheap and it’s easy to create a new account.
I’ve been mass reported nothing happened expect a name change
That’s true Sony use an IP ban. So it’s new hardware and account needed.
Pc lack of anti cheat must be infuriating for the die hard players and yeah I feel for them. I know I’m missing out on cp77 but in no way am I missing out here. Pull your socks up Beth
Tell that shit to the bot army running ESO into the ground right now, farming nodes and bosses lol. They don't do anything, or can't.
One thing that I would like to share as an anti-grief tip, since not everyone has or can have that brotherhood tower, is to use weaker materials to build your housing like wood since it will be destroyed faster than other materials.
This is only worth mentioning because once your wood foundation is destroyed, anything sitting on top of it will disappear, hopefully before it can be destroyed too.
Also crouching keeps u hidden on the map
Griefing is nowhere near as bad as it was a couple of years ago.
I really wish they had player reputations based on how they interact with other players, AND THEN make a feature to only play with good players forcing all the bad players to play together.
Griefed 2 times this evening. One level 179 at scorched earth the other level 213 at a breach and clear. From here both incidents are identical. Invisible player in both cases however names did display once they attacked. Both used a flame thrower like weapon. Both were instant kills (with me in pacifist mode). Upon my death both displayed the "lost 50 caps" message. An interesting footnote. In both cases as fast as that message indicated lost 50 caps appeared their bounties vanished even though I could still see their player icon and name. Don't know what any of this means. Just felt it might be useful data for you. The flame weapon. As soon as I heard the flame I died before any chance to react. Thank you for being a voice for those of us that desire to play within the rules and guidelines of the game.
Sounds like a explosive anti armor legacy flamer, legit kills anyone in 1 hit thats not in auto stim pa
You were not pacifist then
Sounds like you've been reading "The Art of War".
Block them in their profile, not just for the session.
Too much works, she wants people to be banned for saying the word pvp
Thing is, blocking doesn't really do anything. You won't see blocked players on the map but you can still be placed in servers with them & they can still find your CAMP. I've blocked people in a NW match only to be placed on a team with them in the next.
@KasumiKills if u want to pve they made fallout 4 for that service. I'm so tired of this excuse, adventure was intended to be 50/50 for pvp and pve, survival was for pvp and private was for pve. But they went and removed survival, and have u ever tried play nw? It ain't it, that's all imma say about it
@KasumiKills just go play fo3 or fonv and stop crying 🙂
@@lues8743 Most PVP players in adventure mode really suck at Nuclear winter because of the lack of VATS. Every time ive challenged players that try to PVP me in Adventure I send them a message to meet me on Nuclear Winter. Every time they ignore my request because the truth is that PVP'rs are mostly dupers that got their guns through cheating so its fine with me because Fallout is designing stronger and better weapons that cant be traded or dropped. Wait until all these legacy dupers are stuck with all the time they dedicated and their guns with no desire from others to get their lame ass guns and armor.
Luckily I haven't been grieved too much. 99% of my encounters have been great. I had one guy start shooting my old camp and so I server hopped. The other day, two guys spawned at my Camp and started shooting me and my Camp up and I left the server. Someone destroyed my cow's fodder and I repaired it. Most people are actually kind to me and will even leave me gifts at my Camp. My Camp is dedicated to farming and so I have the vintage water coolers in a building that is left open. I have all of the major crops planted and there are tons of them. I have a fenced in cow, a beehive, and a chicken coop. My home is a two story wooden house that is nicely placed and built. I sold all of my major things in the vending machine and I still leave it up cause people are free to come and take as much as they want, especially newer players.
Beth - If it’s not broke fix it until it is
Also Beth - If it’s broke just ignore it
Pacifist mode can help in terms of a specific griefing method I experienced on my first playthrough. The dross item players use during the dross toss daily technically counts as a weapon and if it hits another player thats in the way of the targets (on purpose or not) they can shoot back at you and kill you if youre not prepared.
12:14 staying away from white springs train station is a good way to avoid greifers. It's damn troll paradise. Always has been.
I didn't know that, but now that you mentioned, I always found curious how several people like to set up their camps there.
My number one anti griefer tip: Fallout First’s private world. 💵
Yeah no thanks, I'm not paying Bethesda extra money for something that should be free. Can't believe this is still a problem with this game.
@@darkrunner8145 I paid... i can't complain lol. I can afford anything in the atomshop, i get extra goodies on the score board, some sweet loots every month or so included with the sub and infinite storage for scrap.
Should some of that, or all of that be free? Maybe... but MMO's cost money to operate and update so idc lol. Meanwhile my camp is absolutely INSANE and my fallout shelter is DEEP.
So, you have to pay subscription to avoid toxic people? I want to buy this game but no thanks, I'll stay with Fallout 4.
One of the biggest griefing issues my mom and I get are when we take a workshop over for either scoreboard or to get a few things, we're almost always killed by extremely high level players. She's over 100 and I'm 80. We're casual players and don't live near each other. So fallout is a great way to connect and play. And the griefers never take the workshop. They just kill us and run away. It's immature and beyond ridiculous. I keep my camp open and friendly. So does she.
That's not greifing, just don't take workshops if ur having such a huge issue
@@lues8743it is griefing, it's taking advantage of lower levels that can't protect themselves from attacks.
Your tip about having an essentials shelter for backup got me thinking.. How cool would it be if there was a shelter door that was in a fixed location on the map, (in addition to the one you can place at your camp) that was player specific, allowing for people to enter their shelters even if their camp couldn't be placed?
Good stuff.. I got griefed the other day.. funny how people are so brave when its removed from reality.
"Greenninjadjh" u won't do shit
@@lues8743 my point
@@Greenninjadjh ok green ninja
I was wondering why this one guy was tossing Explosive bait around my camp a few months ago. It didn't do anything that I could notice, they probably didn't use enough, but it was a waste of time and mats for him, so thats cool with me.
My anti griefing defense is my private server and I only go on the public server now and then to look for better weapons. Thanks for the tips on trap camps. Have not encountered one yet and will be more careful in the future. If you see me on at the same time as you and need to do something jump to my server and you will be left alone if you want. Your were a very nice lady to talk to the last time I caught you on and it really ticks me off that folks do that to anyone but especially you. Keep up the good work and God bless Ms Marta.
Really great video, Marta! It ended up much better than I expected it to when I saw your poll. Well done, and very well thought through. I guess as you gain fame and followers, you also attract the riff-raff as well, unfortunately.
I've legitimately never encountered any grief in this game since day one. Not saying it doesn't happen. I am just shocked to see a video about it and the methods they use.
Same here bruh Cali servers
Yeh, I guess I am a really hot target after all :P
@@InnovSurvivalist emphasis on hot :D huehue ( I'll see myself out)
The last week especially I've had others wanting to hunch me! Hubby and I have side by side tv's so of course he gets tore up! Wonder if they would feel any different if they knew they're hunching a grey haired 60 yr old grandma!
Hi fellow grandma player!
Same here side by side lol it's so much fun but yes the grifters stink I hope they all get hemorrhoids ! Lol
Great video and unfortunately needed. I have not had CAMP issues for a while, but have had problems at workshops when trying to build resources. It seems the griefers wait to see the workshop 'owner' get to the workshop, spawn in, then a quick kill and grab their junk. They don't even claim the workshop. I have developed a tactic of only bringing minimal resources and always placing a stash box at the workshop so I can stay empty.
I love being really kind to griefers. They try to get me upset but when I show them that I don’t care they get annoyed and leave. Attention getters should really go look for some friends.
Lol, i only became a pvpr because of griefers.
I love annihilating them!
Thanks for your continued videos I don't play much but it's nice to be able to play the game more informed
Always glad to help. Cheers! :)
Griefing on consoles is extremely rare. Over a thousand hours in the game and only ever had a camp destroyed once.
Nah, it’s extremely common, on Xbox anyway, can’t speak for PS4 but if you’re on Xbox you’ve gotten very lucky
I’ve been griefed for the second time now and I’m 2weeks into this game lol
yeah agreed very common on Xbox one probably because the game is now on game pass. Much less issues on pc. Beth should just life ban them.
I had some guy who had his base in the mesh and you had to access a terminal to get into the mesh where he had his vending machines, once the terminal was accessed I fell down into a room filled with the punji boards. Got a message from guy saying rip kikoo. Reported it to Bethesda with picture and video proof and got him insta banned
Thank you for all the survival tips Marta!!!
I miss games where you could set permission of WHO could have access inside your home...
It's silly they can kill our camps when we are on pacifist and not even around though.
@@InnovSurvivalist I play in Adventure on PC. I do not see a Pacifist Mode where you show one on yours.
Another reason to love shelters. I had a bounty on me once and decided to use it as a business opportunity. Sat in my shelter in my pharmacy get up and waited for players to come so i could offer highest quality and rarity chems for trade. Most people weren't interested and someone tried to grief me but my shelter kept me safe. The walls protected me against fire and radiation damage too
Thank you for the video and the tips, pre-made structures are a great idea! I am sorry you are a greifing target, you do not deserve that. You are my favorite Fallout 76 content creator and I appreciate your hard work.
And that's how I dismantled my campsite last Holiday Season... My C.A.M.P. was inside a pre-made who got destroyed by a super-mutant attack and since I was not finding it, I had to respawn it. Mystery solved!
From my experience, seems like the console experience is way more peaceful (Never even needed to turn on pacifist mode). That's why in this particular game I would like cross-play between consoles but sadly, not with PC. 😐
Another great video! :)
As a pacifist, I do not understand how people can grief someone and not feel guilty .
They are irl psychos that use the notion of "its a game bruh..." to pretend that bad behavior is sometimes ok
Its fun and I know how it feels i have been victim and griefer
Ignore, block, go to new world. Rinse and repeat
Or just pay to win and use private worlds
@@sebdom7850 or this lol
In public's if they are targeting you they can still follow you with other methods
Or get better at pvp. It is a fallout game
Another pointer from my personal experience. If you lock up all your apparatus with level 3 locks you are more prone to camp griefs! I used to lock up everything back at launch and I noticed my stuff consistently got destroyed by passerbys. Since then I leave everything open for all and my camp greifs have totally disappeared.
Another good tip if your camp is getting attacked is to switch to your other camp as you get a second slot by default. I have done this several times to minimise damage and the griefers may assume you left the server. Surprised you missed that tbh.
A small tip on fixing moo-moos:
if your building budget allows - plant and then store a bunch of razorgrains. When moo-moo dies plant those stored razorgrains and scrap them - boom! You don't have to fast-travel anywhere.
Whenever I notice someone nosing around my CAMP, I'll almost always fast travel there & follow them around. Give 'em the nickle tour.
Pretty much the only griefing I've gotten was a guy with a mininuke minigun that did absolutely nothing but drop my framerate to nothing for three minutes.
after 100 hours playing fallout 76 now i know there are trap camp
Well, you learnt something new at least :P
I always store my junk now before traveling to vendors. One of one the first times I experienced grieving. It was a camp with like 40 weapons and 40 armor, so naturally I was curious. It was a camp where I had to stand on a pressure plate and walk into a room without windows. I went in and could not get out and triggered a blow torch. I was so surprised by their ingenuity, that I laughed really hard and couldn’t be mad.
I've played over a thousand hours of Fallout 76, I only encountered about 3 trap camps.
Been attacked multiple times. Can get annoying. Thank goodness I've never had my camp destroyed.
Great day to the community. Stay safe and enjoy the game.
Thank you for the video.
I have a group of clowns that have been griefing me for 4 months. A matter a fact, they griefed my friend yesterday with explosive bait. This helps a lot so thank you! This is where pvp gets you 😂
Yeh, I learnt a lot with their griefing so far. :P
@@InnovSurvivalist if i was on pc i would give you some scraps but im not =/. im on xbox... theres griefers everywhere. (Literally everywhere)
@@InnovSurvivalist i changed my camp to a stacked foundation camp 3 weeks ago and no one has been able to grief me
I think the way they trigger the explosive bait (it doesnt always work when they throw it down) but they can put it down then try to kite enemies to your camp, since it works on npc enemies it will then trigger. Thats why it still works at fasnacht, the critters trigger it as well as super mutants and radtoads. Since critters trigger it as well I think having brahmin at your base or chickens will possibly cause it to automatically trigger.
Just discovered your channel. Great content. I played Fallout 76 for maybe six weeks during "early access" (beta) and after initial launch. Since then, I only play Fallout 76 maybe two to three weeks per year. Your videos are very, very helpful for teaching me (an infrequent player). I am very sorry to hear that you have been targeted by nasty Griefers. Since launch, I have strongly felt that Bethesda should offer no-PvP (co-op play only) servers. But I guess they never will? Maybe Bethesda doesn't rid the game of Griefers . . . because they motivate customers to get Fallout 1st to have a private server?
You have mentioned that Griefers track you down even after you swap servers? On the Bethesda website they state, "Once you have completed steps one and two [block player and swap servers], you will never interact with this player again. If a player is on your blocked list, our system separates you to different server environments, so you will not encounter them again." Is this statement not true? (Would be nice if it were true.)
Griefers dont even have the excuse of being pvpers. There is an event for that, workshops, slapping eachother, or becoming wanted.
Everytime I engage and kill them they end up rushing my camp and targeting generators and purifiers. Blocking does nothing. You can only take their junk once when they keep rushing you.
thank you so much for the tips! :D
The was getting "griefed" often whenever I claimed a workshop. Now I only do quests in open play and do all my resources in Private. Good video. I agree. . . just ignore them. But I liked what one poster said, "I only became a pvp'r after being griefed." I don't plan to be a pvp'r but I am not against a little gorilla warfare. I am collecting targets now. :-)
My camp placement item got hidden somewhere too, I still havent found it but so far it hasn't been a problem as I can just touch my BOS tower and fix everything
Yeh, that's the main pro of prefrabs. If you have a normal camp you need to repair item by item without the placement item.
The only use for the block player option is to keep annoying people out of your public teams. Otherwise it definitely doesn't function as advertised.
good to know, i blocked a bunch of them, havnt had a problem since so i thought it worked.
I’ve been fortunate so far. I’m level 51, play pretty slowly so I have some hours into the game. I’ve not been griefed....yet. Most people I meet have been pretty helpful or just leave me alone. I find that relaxing
So just a story I'm gonna share for everyone thinking griefing doesn't happen. I played the BETA and a bit after, loved the game but didn't like the bugs - so I decided to give Bethesda some time to get it to a stable state. I finally came back and rerolled a new character once Wastelanders dropped, as I heard that the game was pretty stable by that point. Not only did I play the BETA, I watch a lot of videos on this game, read Wikis, etc so I know how the game works fairly well. Well, after I hit level 15 and had my CAMP set up across the bridge from the Wayward, vendors and all, a dude with the username "pigpen" and a bunch of numbers comes up to my CAMP and buys some stuff. Dude must have been like, twice my level, I think he was around level 70-80. I don't think anything of it, I'm inside my locked off Red Rocket prefab crafting stuff when I see the notification pop - pigpen is wanted! And I look through the window to see the dudes still there. I didn't see what he'd done at the time, but when I went back after, turns out he'd taken all my crops (which would have been fine tbh) and unlocked my Scavenger bot. Even that would have been one thing, and as he was twice my level and I didn't see what he did, I didn't shoot. I figured maybe he'd lockpicked something by mistake, I'd heard about it before, and even if it wasn't dude was twice my level, I'm not PVPing him. So I stay inside my prefab and wait for the dude to leave. I'm looking out the window in the side door when next thing I know I hear the garage door opening. Dude had lockpicked that open and was waltzing in. I didn't know what he was up to so I locked it again. Then he opened the garage and side door again. I figured out that he was trying to do some low level trolling so I emoted "no" at him, basically saying hey dude I don't want to PVP, go away. He didn't. I tried to block him for the session - I didn't know blocking didn't work then - only to come back to see him stealing my newly regrown crops. Well I'd had enough at that point so I blocked him, reported him and signed off. I later got an email follow up from Bethesda basically saying they wouldn't do anything, oh well. I thought that was the end of it, I stayed offline for a couple days figuring he'd forget about me. Well when I finally came back, it was worse. At first he left me alone but a couple hours in, him and a friend kept following me to all of my quests, making the mobs spawn in at twice my level and killing me in the process or making me break my weapons, armor and run out of ammo. Basically made the game unplayable. I knew blocking didn't do anything at that point so I'd sign off and hope he'd leave by the time I came back. Nope, kept happening. This was before the One Wasteland update and on Xbox, BTW. So I ended up taking the plunge into Fallout 1st and basically played the game in my private world until I was higher leveled, about level 47 or so. Then I came back to the main game, but I hid my CAMP and kept my vendors off and snuck literally everywhere. It must have taken over a month before I was able to put it back up safely. I still spotted his buddy following me, but the only places I'd pop up at there were no enemies at so he couldn't do much. A couple times he'd pop up down the way from my tent, for example. Another week went by and they finally stopped. And don't get me started on the others who when I was level 15-20 kept trying to start PVP with me, even when I said no, and they were over level 100 or higher. Persistently. I'd just be by the Wayward or out in the world exploring, it was irritating. One I even had to block and server hop before they'd stop. I didn't fight back, I knew how PVP worked but still, that's blatant trolling imo. So yeah guys trolling happens. Even now at level 130 I still get run ins with trolls. I just know how to avoid it better now. One tip I can offer is if you go AFK, do it in your shelter. Lock the shelter door and set up an entrance with a lockable door and turrets. This way even if they get in, the turrets will shoot them on sight and they'd still have another lock to get through, making it more of a hassle. If a troll really bugs you, nope out to your private server if you have one and lay low for a while. Someone also suggested I try blocking them on the actual Xbox next time it happens, but I haven't had anything that severe happen since, still its something you can try if you get harassed to badly. Also, I see this a lot - guys, workshops are open PVP zones. The little pop up notification even warns you it is when you take one. If someone attacks you at a workshop and you die even with pacifist, that's not trolling, that's PVP where you didn't know the rules. Granted it's a crappy thing to do to a low level but a lot of players think that's how you learn. If you can, take workshops on private servers or do it when you're high leveled and well equipped enough to fight back. Until then, go to fo76map.com. Hide everything but the junk you need specifically in the drop down menu. Set up CAMP next to that node and build a resource thingy to harvest it. There you go, junk without workshops. Should hold you for a long time. That's what I did. Anyway, thought I'd share my story of the worst troll I've gotten, and a couple tips I learned on how to avoid it.
Edit: I forgot to mention, when you're low level a good rule of thumb is to build your CAMP in the safe zone that can't be nuked. You can Google it if you like, but I know it goes down to Flatwoods, The Wayward and I think Point Pleasant. That also saves you the hassle of being nuked with no radiation protection, though I would also suggest getting power armor or a Hazmat suit as soon as you venture outside that zone. You never know, after all.
I'm sorry you had to deal with that. Following you after you leave a server is not only toxic behavior but it is considered stalking. That can be reported on Xbox Live as well as Bethesda.
@@cmac8141 Hey its all good, I just wanted to share my story because I see a lot of comments on here and on Innovs poll doubting trolling even happens, or if it does its just a newb misunderstanding how the game works. I just wanted to illustrate that's not the case all the time. I didn't let it stop me playing and enjoying the game, just used it as a lesson. And now I game with a great group of people in Fallout 76 and we have a great time. If I run across any trolls I know what actions to take. I've learned and moved on, yanno? And yeah, I realize that now but I didn't think about it at the time. I didn't realize that Bethesdas reporting and blocking function was going to be so bad, and after that I was so focused on avoiding it I didn't think it through. If it happens again to that extent, I definitely will do that though. Thanks for the suggestion. :)
my tip won't work for some people obviously but in my paranoia i put my different shelter types doors in each other like a russian nesting doll with t2 turrets aimed at the entrance so if they entered (bypassing a lvl 3 lock) hopefully they would just get shot down after a certain point or get bored at going through multiple loading screens just to get to a bed and crafting area
sadly camp turrets dont attack players, i believe.
I always crouch when visiting other players camps, I love Light Footed perk...
I can’t save my moo moo :( at least my chickens can live :)
I’m just trying to rp a happy farmer 👩🌾
The Only way for that sadly is getting number 1 pass :/
Yay I'm early. Thank you for the videom haven't gotten greifed but useful to know.
No worries! Yeh, I know this one is not for everyone but figures I'd do something with all the knowledge I have, especially with the fresh additions lately.
I'm not sure if this still works, but replacing the camp placement item tends to put things back into the camp inventory without the need to repair them. You'll have to replace the structures, sure, but it'll save resources.
Problem: impossible to put them EXACTLY where they originally were.
We love you, remember that there are way more people who love your videos, don't let griefers win. As always your videos are awesome.
Simp
Great list! I learned a lot of these tips just by walking the wastelands of Appalachia. My whole camp got destroyed once because I took over a workshop and then I had one player keep me busy at the workshop while their teammate destroyed my camp. Instead of getting mad I actually befriended them and they taught me all the ways of not becoming a victim of grieving. Haha! Gotta be smart in the wasteland.
Just realized, that i missunderstood griefing for stealing items of someone :)
For most of the time, i have great player Experiences with randoms and also get thumbsups by newbies that arrive at my camp.. my camp is optimized for visitors & style and maxed out in all ways :)
I built a cat cafe near where cats spawn normally, and people like to come by and kill my cats. Also I have given up on trying to put up a Brahmin pen years ago to farm fertilizer because every time I’d come back to my camp it would be dead.
But now I have a big kitty in my camp (death claw, which somehow became a two star legendary after I tamed it?) so hopefully it will defend my camp.
They can kill your pet with the grief I showed in this video though, they killed my camp several times when I was farming somewhere else :(
I have never been grief but I’m on console so there not too many exploits. Great video I will keep this in mind if I ever get griefed
When Marta calls herself a "hot target" ;)
So Glad you did this video! I do many of these things! One other thing I do is block my windows with objects to keep the Power Armor glitches out and it works! Mostly play keep a low profile and chill with a group of friends who will kill you if you start stuff!
I'm glad to know that! Cheers.
@@InnovSurvivalist Oh I also play in private worlds with friends if Servers are heavy we have done missions, daily Ops with just our friends, So No griefers. With your fan base you could fill several servers with just your friends.
Block will match you to the server that no one you blocked as best as they can,
the one you blocked can still land to your server if their been block by all other server and your server has the least people block them or they click one of their friend to join the server.
So block as many griefer as you can, this will make all griefer land in the same server.
=D
Great clip! Great advice
main thing to know - if some jerk is messing with you , do not engage them. pretend you don't see or hear them and they will get bored and go away.
I remember when some kid was attempting to grief using a sentry and hiding in my base I killed the bot and then locked him in a room and used a glitched punji board that insta killed him
I honestly do not understand why spike boards exist... Like people only use them for griefing and never anything else😑🙁
Same like explosive baits...
I use spike boards for their intended purpose, to keep rats and dogs off your buildings. I also put out balloons and lights to make it very obvious where they are.
I use Spike Strips, by stairs or doors when I take work shops, NPCS will take a Open path vs crossing them, Ive had one of these trap bases get me, they seem to always be a easy to Place square base, whats funny is your in STEEL power armor and a Spike strip or trap could even Hurt you, it should barely scratch your paint.
I wasn't really a victim of griefing and I mostly had great encounters with other players and made friends with some of them. But, although I wasn't griefed by someone shooting and destroying my camp in person, I had my camp nuked once and there were 2 attempts after that but I just activated my other camp and avoided that. And no, it wasn't an accidental nuke targeting, my camp is on the cliff next to the top of the world and it was right in the center of the blast zone all 3 times.
Griefing BECAUSE of Camp never happened to me. Why?
Here's the thing: NOTHING is as shitty as my camps: they're out in the open, maybe on top of an unadorned wooden platform, and ALL resources (like water, plants and minerals) are totally FREE for whomever needs them. Also only fixtures are crafting benches that's it. No cosmetic stuff, only useful things to anybody. No locks. I have some of the crafting stuff duplicated inside a simple locked shelter - they would gain nothing from storming that either - it's there only because of nukes.
I have not been camp-nuked ever. Other griefings have occurred, but, once they see I'm both pacifist and totally irresponsive to their tries, they usually give up, nothing in it for them.
Oh, one more thing! Do not engage in any workshop activity (especially defending yours), in public servers, I've once been killed by an a-hole with a hacked gun that posed as if he was going to help me.
Nice informing video. I encountered something couple days ago. camp was placed on cliff and ı was checking vendor machines inside the building and this griefer camp owner removed the floor and ı fall from the cliff, ı was aware of my surrounding and ı had a jet pack so griefer couldnt succeed but be aware.
Hey I really love your contact keep it up. But I have a question have you ever had a random power armour chassis in your inventory and once you drop it it's full of raider armour? While it happened to me yesterday and it just happened to my friend about 5 minutes ago. And before you ask we have not Duplicated it just showed up and we don't want to get banned for it but it was a awesome -discovery
Great tips I've given up on base building now all I build are the basics one storage n crafting bench . But the pre build tip got my hopes up again although it's been years since I played I hear the game got better n added npcs ... yeah it's been awhile 😂😅
There is a bug with the Brahmin pen. My Brahmin dies ALL the time. I used to think it was griefers or attacks on the camp, but I have been at my camp and it just dies again and again. And when I log out with it alive and log back in, it is dead.
My fertilizer producer has been drowning itself lately. I thought it was griefing as well until I saw it just standing underwater dying.
Never been griefed in Xbox only met nice people
I have played 400hours on pc, only once a guy griefed my workshop. But its the pvp system that stops it, if people could kill you at will, it would be a griefers game. I have had plenty of people just shooting at me but i just ignore it and go on my buisness.
I've never experienced too much of that. I started playing the game pretty much right away when it first came out but then I quit for over a year maybe a year and a half just came back to the game recently. The only issue I have ever had is being at someone else's camp checking out what they have for sale and then another player comes up to me and starts hitting me trying to have me engage them. one person was doing it Non-Stop and they were only a level 15. I just ignored them and eventually they went away. I do have to say however I was watching a video and when it came to the section on trap camps I just about peed my pants laughing at the shots of players coming in and then just crumbling to the ground. I very seldom carry any junk on me when I go to anyone's camp. I go to camps to check out plans because I miss so much in game. I had one person have 7 plans of a Brahmin plushie and he wanted 2000 caps for it, I don't have that many caps as I just started out again. I came to find out the Brahmin plushie plan comes with a holiday gift so I'm like okay the 2000 caps makes sense but I don't have that kind of moolar.
Some the pvp guys I've watched need to start out reach programs for griefing reprisals, like that show bully beatdown did lol 😆
I witnessed someone's camp getting griefed yesterday.
Went to someone's camp cause I saw they had ammo and I needed to knockout the buy or sell 25 items thing on the weekly. I was looking through the selection in the second of the four vending machines, I had already purchased what ammo I could use and was looking through the the weapons they had for sale. They had a nice gangters tommy gun 3 star and the price was very reasonable so I bought it. Next thing I know my character is getting shot at with a shotgun of some sort and explosions are going off I finish up my business with the machine and scan around and there some little fella throwing around explosive bait and shooting at the vending machines. It was a bit crazy I watched for about five seconds and than I headed my character away from the camp. I looked on the map to see who the owner was and they were involved in an event the one where you fight all the mole miners in the mine. Either way I saw my characters way outta there and just headed to the next camp to do some shopping. I got lucky besides the gun I got two plans at another camp vendor I didn't know yet and one of them was one I really wanted and thought I missed out on.
Griefers use friends on your friends list to rejoin on you. So Blocking is really never going to be effective.
Yeh, I guess they do somehow, they find me way too often and I don't have them in my friend list, so they must use that sort of trick :(
You can go in your privacy setting so people don’t see your friends
@@InnovSurvivalist Check to see who on your friends list is online when griefed. Jump servers. See who follows on your friends list.
Makes me feel better. That’s all that matters 😂
Maybe in some cases, but I've blocked people before I had any friends added, so that's not always the case. I've heard they just go to your profile and join your game, something to be aware of.
Once I visited a camp that was a trap. I was sooo surprised I laughed myself breathless. Suffice to say I lost nothing in my junk as I keep that empty very regularly and I found it quite funny. It was a radiation trap, don't know how it's done but the door slammed shut behind me and I was trapped. I heard the rad counter have a fit and 5 seconds later I was killed. Would have been annoying if I had any loot to lose or my camp was far away but we were neighbours in whitesprings so no biggy to me. Ingenious to be sure and devious AF.
Sometimes I found myself the target of those trying to attack me. Got the p mode on so I use the point and laugh emote at them. They soon give up.
In regards to explosive bait ... it is not a fixed object so you can remove them from your camp ... !!!
By using an explosive rifle you can shoot them and they will move in the kinetic direction they were shot ... so you can literally shoot them out of your base and off your area ...
If one does become trapped behind some furniture and you can't get it out ... take the wall off next to it and shoot it out ...
Someone tried this with my outpost once ... it took me all of 5 minutes to shoot all the bait out and into the river next to me ...
Thx for this tips, when I was lvl 25 a level 200 keeping killing
me every time by cryolator, freezing me, destroying my workshops and camp
And I didn't did anything to him 🤷♂️
This is funny as two years later I had to click to see what you even meant by griefing as I forgot these were even an issue. Funny how a community changes mostly over time.
The extent of my "griefing" in 76 is picking locks but not taking anything so people can come kill me & make progress on their 'Kill 76 Wanted Players' challenge.
*_BHAAAAA-HAAAA-HAAA-HAA-HA!!!!!_*
Oe noe! I gotta use *_A_* spring & *_A_* steel scrap to repair my lock!
I think the block option only stops the player from finding you on the map and after you switch servers they can find you again
Great video.
I dunno about pc but blocking someone on xbox tends to make it so you don't see them that often unless they join someone's server that you are on.
Este "caramba" que você soltou no meio do vídeo me deu uma suspeita de que você falava português ou espanhol, pelo sotaque n era nativo inglês com certeza. Mas olha so, português! Caramba q legal hahaha acompanho você a um tempão, me sinto mais próximo agora, ainda mais num jogo tão pequeno com pouca gente jogando
I'm Portuguese :P
@@InnovSurvivalist I know, I saw on your chanel description. But I'm brazilian though
im fine with trying pvp and am working on my pvp gear since my build is good at the moment a couple weeks ago I met a trap base player outside of the wayward and they would not fight me back. some griefers are scared of a real fight, doesnt make sense to me at all.
If i'm a griefer and i already ruined your day by killing you or destroying your base, why would i give you a chance of a fair fight and risk dying and getting mad? It's a dumb thing for them to do tbh
@@MinnueteCVP they didn't even kill me the trap wasn't good enough lol
I probably ruined their day more lol. But I see you point
Foodbuild salt🧂🧂🧂🧂🧂
@@SNAKEVENOM-ws8ws I was salt i wanted to fight lol
Thank you.
Love your videos always so informative and helpful. My camps never been griefed but I definitely run into the annoying harassment types all the time. Had a group of 3 players couple of days ago just walk up and start punching and shooting me while I was trying to craft and repair weapons.
Yeh, lots of them try to make you engage them so they can kill you with their buddies and hacked weapons :(
Which is why anyone defending them as pvpers are braindead.
It's sad that there's toxic players that go around ruining people's camp's just to do it and probably thinking it makes them feel more bigger and badder than anyone else but in reality they are just cowards trying to go around bullying others players so it makes them feel more better about them selves talk about being self insecure is most of the grieffers issue atleast I think so. As someone as chill and nice as she is you think people would try to show her some love instead of ruining her camp. I hope you have better experience playing fallout 76 now of days and the best thing is like you said kill them with kindness! ❤️😀 I've been playing on Xbox for the past few months and I've not gotten my camp destroyed but my issue is people abusing legacys and ruining every public event not just for me but for all of the other players especially the newer players that can't even enjoy the game because of how out of control legacys are on the Xbox servers
You can always add an on/off switch to the vending machine..
they players will Click the button and no oneill see you have the vending machines, if you do add one, put it behind locked doors.
If they stop us from losing our junk it would stop
You are very wrong
No it wont. My traps will continue. I dont even take junk. Im in it for the ragdoll

Please seek help soon
@@FP194 never 😆
PS4/PS5 players are pretty chill. I never really got griefed in my 1000+ hours playthrough. Am I just lucky or what?
I'm on PS4 & got griefed a lot as a low level character. I actually had to change my privacy settings because someone kept following me. It's a bit of a pain since people can't add me, but 🤷🏼♀️. Now that I'm a high level, I don't get bothered. I'm not sure if it's the privacy setting or just because it's harder for them to pick on someone their own size.
