Daily Fallout 76 Briefing - February 01, 2026

Mothman Equinox and a Double SCORE weekend are live-clear today's Decryption Daily Op in The Burning Mine and cash in on fresh daily/weekly challenges.

Today's Daily Ops

Active:

  • Mode: Decryption
  • Location: The Burning Mine
  • Enemy Faction: Blood Eagles
  • Mutations / Effects: Savage Strike; Freezing Touch + Swift-Footed

Quick run tips

  • Savage Strike: expect armor-ignoring hits-stay mobile, use cover, and don't face-tank.
  • Freezing Touch + Swift-Footed: enemies close distance fast and slow you-bring a strong close-range option and prioritize fast movers.

Today's Daily Challenges

Resets:

  • Kill an Enemy in the Burning Springs Region (5)
  • Complete the Event: "The Mothman Equinox"
  • Take a Camera Picture at the Super Duper Mart
  • Collect Wood (5)
  • ⭐ Gold Star: Complete a Daily Challenge (6)

Quick completion tips

  • Burning Springs kills: Burning Springs is accessed on foot via the Point Pleasant Bridge-grab 5 quick kills at any nearby enemy cluster.
  • Complete "The Mothman Equinox": join the public event when it appears and stay through completion.
  • Camera picture (Super Duper Mart): this must be taken with a ProSnap Deluxe Camera (not Photo Mode). If you don't have one, claim the Personal Terminal (free), then use it to start Suspicious Person → loot the tourist to begin Last Wishes and craft the camera.
  • Collect Wood (5): interact with wood piles/logs (e.g., Sylvie & Sons Logging Camp is a fast, reliable stop).
  • Drink Tea: any "Tea" beverage works-drink one from your stash or craft one at a Cooking Station.
  • Scrap junk for Bone (5):
    • Fastest method: craft Bulk Bone at a Tinker's Workbench (requires Bone + Plastic), then scrap the bulk-it counts as "scrap junk."
    • If you need Bone quickly: pick up skulls/skull parts at locations like Braxon Quality Medical Supplies or Morgantown Airport, then scrap them.
  • Destroy a Robot (10): hit robot-heavy areas like Watoga or RobCo Research Center.
