Harvest nuked flora inside a blast zone. Stabilize it before it deteriorates.
Flux farming in Fallout 76 means entering a nuke zone, harvesting mutated flora for raw flux, collecting stabilizing materials from enemies, and crafting stable flux before the raw flux spoils.
The stable flux recipe uses ten raw flux, one glowing mass, one hardened mass, and one high-radiation fluid at a chemistry station.
Farm glowing mass, hardened mass, and high-radiation fluids from blast-zone enemies.
Crafted at a chemistry station and used in high-end crafting and power armor mods.
FALLOUT 76 FLUX TYPES
Fallout 76 has five main flux types. Raw versions are harvested from nuked flora, while stable versions are crafted after adding the stabilizing materials.
- Cobalt flux
- Crimson flux
- Fluorescent flux
- Violet flux
- Yellowcake flux
MATERIALS NEEDED FOR STABLE FLUX
For one stable flux, use a chemistry station with the matching raw flux and one of each stabilizing material.
- 10 raw flux of the same type
- 1 glowing mass
- 1 hardened mass
- 1 high-radiation fluid
Raw flux deteriorates into inert flux. Do not leave the blast zone with a
full bag of raw flux and no plan to stabilize it.
SIMPLE FLUX FARMING ROUTE
01
Choose the nuke zone
Target an area with the plants and enemies you want. If you also want a public event, Fissure Site Prime can combine Scorched Earth with blast-zone farming.
02
Harvest flora first
Sweep the area for mutated plants and collect the raw flux you need. Keep moving so you have time to collect stabilizing materials.
03
Farm enemies
Kill enemies inside the blast zone for glowing mass, hardened mass, and high-radiation fluids.
04
Stabilize at a chemistry station
Craft stable flux as soon as possible. Stable flux does not have the same short decay pressure as raw flux.
COMMON FLUX FARMING MISTAKES
- Harvesting raw flux without enough stabilizing materials.
- Leaving the blast zone before farming enemies for mass and fluids.
- Forgetting rad protection, RadAway, or enough healing supplies.
- Nuking an area without checking whether it has the flux color you need.
- Waiting too long and letting raw flux deteriorate into inert flux.
FAQ
How do you make stable flux in Fallout 76?
Use a chemistry station with 10 raw flux of the same type, 1 glowing mass, 1 hardened mass, and 1 high-radiation fluid.
Does raw flux expire?
Yes. Raw flux deteriorates into inert flux if you do not stabilize it.
What are the five flux types?
Cobalt, crimson, fluorescent, violet, and yellowcake.
