Fallout 76is Bethesda’s MMO based on theFalloutfranchise, one of their biggest IPs. The game follows the story of a Vault Dweller from Vault 76 as they explore Appalachia to rebuild the region after a devastating plague.
Bethesda and Amazon have also created aT.V. show for the franchise, and to celebrate, the company has developed guides for players who want to recreate major characters from the show in the game. Here’s a guide to creating The Ghoul.
The Ghoul in Fallout, Explained
The Ghoul (Cooper Howard) is one of the maincharacters of theFalloutT.V. showand may be the most popular character in the entire series. He is a bounty hunter who was originally a massive movie star before the fallout when radiation mutated him into a Ghoul.
Now, he spends his time hunting outlaws and criminals for bounties from different organizations, eventually leading to him meeting and working with Lucy MacLean, the show’s main character (after a rocky beginning to their relationship).
The Ghoul’s Perk Loadout
Thankfully, Bethesdareleased information on Xthat shows players how to build The Ghoul inFallout 76. This build breaks down which Perks to get that fall under each of the well-knownS.P.E.C.I.A.L. statsin the series. Unsurprisingly, it seems that the highest Stats The Ghoul has arePerception, Endurance, Agility,andLuck.
How to Get The Ghoul’s Outfit
Bethesda released his outfit (calledThe West Coast Duster Outfit) for players who are determined to play as The Ghoul. Unfortunately, there isn’t a way to play as a Ghoul, but players can hide their normal faces and pretend that they’re The Ghoul with his cowboy hat. However, some players hope to create mods to allow for either a Ghoul’s face or a mask resembling The Ghoul.
ForFallout1st players,the outfit is completely free and obtainable in theAtomic Shop(the game’s item shop that can be purchased with real money). Unfortunately, this item is marked as a limited-time item; however, this doesn’t mean it won’t make a resurgence or become available in other ways in the game at a later date.
