Prima Games Fallout 76: Official Guide

A terrible guide
This is quite possible the WORST strategy guide I have ever bought and thus forced me to send back after a day.Want stats on power armor and weapons? It's here. Want to know how to get them?? It's not. Got those treasure maps? Want to know where to go? Better get online as not in this guide. Just a pic of them,which is also in the game! Not to mention a lot of the quests are missing too. This is clearly based on the BETA and not the full game.This guide has a ton of content that's in game already and images of bases you can build as tiny images with no guides how to actually build them like in the images. Had to goto YouTube to know how to do half the stuff in this guide.The quests guide just repeat what the game does and doesn't give you an in depth guide of how to do them so again had to goto YouTube for a guide on a quest I was stuck on. The saving grace of this guide and only good point was the in depth look at what cards you can from levelling. But this can easily be found online. Save your money and just get solutions online. 90% of this book is in depth maps however its so hard to actually read there's no point to them.

Concise, but with some inaccuracies
Having received Fallout 76 for Christmas, I wanted to make the most of it, especially given what I'd heard from early adopters of it.The guide itself is extensive, including information on Quests, Side Missions, Random Encounters and so on. There is an inventory of all Junk items in the game (including their subordinate components) and of course Weapons, Armour and Apparel. Maps (plus local maps not found in the game) are contained in their own chapter too.You can find character classes created by the authors, that specialise in Stealth, Medical, Attack, Tank etc based on perks you pick while leveling up: very helpful for first time players like me.The information is presented in an attractive and heavy book, with a full colour pages and a complete index for tracking down whatever it is you're looking for.I remember reading somewhere that this guide was assembled during the Beta testing stages however, and there are some inaccuracies I have found, notably some of the Perk bonuses, the location of a few items I've looked for, that kind of thing. Nothing game-breaking, but enough that I needed to check Google every now and then.There are also some sections of the game that are not at all mentioned in the guide, which I would again attribute to when the guide was compiled - the authors have no control over this, so it's forgivable to me.The maps and the Quest hints are more than enough to get you through the game, like me. I like to play through a game first, and not just read my way through with walkthroughs, so I skipped over the quest information the first time, unless I got really stuck.What is not here is a full list of the weapon mods you can construct and use, but there are thousands of them, so this is not really viable anyway.All told, I'm pleased with the guide, and it has made the game more enjoyable when I've needed to check something.

Good quality
As always these guides are very good. Very comprehensive, as up to date as they can be when published but do offer an online link to obtain latest updates. Not worth getting hardback but this. I recommend it for beginners and seasoned players.

Fantastic Fallout
Fantastic Book for Fallout 76. It's heavy, thick and full of easy to find information. It also comes with a huge pull out area map poster again packed with location info and highlights for the area.This was a gift and was really well received! The poster is on their game room wall framed.Highly recommended.

I love fallout
I ordered this on the day the game launched. I felt a bit overwhelmed. The book has been very helpful, it's extremely comprehensive, and has loads of info I have not even needed yet a few weeks later! I can see this is going to be very useful.Also, if you just want a nice fallout book to read, it's an attractive hardback with tons of info. It's lovely, you should totally get one if you like fallout even a little bit.
