IF YOU HAVENT COMPLETED SECRETS OF WEST TEK: Video uploader is slightly incorrect about the quest. You only have to open the terminals that are marked by the quest, and then just walk away from them. You DO NOT have to open all the entries in the terminal, you dont even have to open any of them. Enter terminal, leave terminal, go to next terminal.
Using the elevator to reset them is faster because those loading screens are shorter then in and out and fast travel screens but either one work well your way also makes it not laggy
@@shr1m yeah when I've gone back up using the elevator my frame rate tanks badly for some reason but fast travelling to the Westek front entrance prevents that.
@@shr1mwould love to see someone do a lv 1 to lv 100 from farming xp … Lots of players struggle 1st 20-30 lvs specially if new …but from wat i see after watching this video, might be best to make a xp build from lv to lv 50 or so…def worth it and could get to who knows wat lv ….maybe 500? Maybe 2,000? Lol
it's best to go all the way down in the basement and then back quickly, then the creatures will respawn at the entrance again and you don't have to wait. Then you just clear the closed area and back down. there's no faster way to get ep! Use a quad railway rifle and you don't even need ammunition and with the weapons that the mutis fall and the perk recycler you have an almost unlimited supply of steel. Did 70 levels in two hours there! Is dead boring but you level up quickly
Actually, you just need to kill one super mutant in the basement, and you can re-enter. I kill one, and fast travel out, then re-enter, and they are all respawned. Also this is great if your under level 1000 as it really starts to slow down in the higher levels.
@@flexpex94 My load times are very fast actually, the server can be questionable though. *The basement seems to be the key, as I can clear west-tek and just leave and it never resets. I have to server hop for a reset.* Also not sure if this is known, but entering the basement resets ALL inside zones with enemies. I nuked the area just left of top of the world to activate the glowing bloated ghouls in the prison, capital building and burrows for material farming and the basement also reset those spawns which is quite incredible and the best source for glowing, hardened mass and radioactive fluids. Now I just need a very solid source for cobalt flux farming. Arktos Pharma has a fair amount of flora that yields unrefined cobalt flux.
@@aarontyler69 It should reset by just waiting but it seems bethesda has in their wisdom managed another bug XD. Il check if my game can pull it off aswell but i suspect its a one off.
This works if you leave the instance entirely, like if you set up a CAMP right outside the entrance. Port out, clean up inventory, wait until one minute has elapsed, then go right back in.
@@teg4528 Last time I did it, which was a few weeks ago, I used two accounts to reset the instance almost immediately. I didn't test the 60 second reset using just one account.
I heard about stuff like this that they patched but this is neat....and I wasn't sure if it was even possible. You did a great job on this video so your definitely not dumb.
to be honest this just a variation of the old trusted westtek farm that really does not gain you much benefit just feels faster since you got something to do while they respawn
When you a small level player between 50 and 500, yes you might ,which i doubt it, make 50 levels in an hour. But thats impossible when you at level 5000. At that level you can only do 6 levels in an hour and thats with all the buffs, high intelligence, lunch boxes, etc. It takes more XP to level up. At level 5000, one level eguals 10 small levels.
thats true but for me it only gets laggy after about 25 levels gained then i see the lag, this way you only get 1 loading screen, thats half the time of 2 interior loading screens from outside to inside west tek takes longer then elevator loading screen plus the longer fast travel loading screen.
@@shr1m PC on Steam, some of it may be client side though as I'm not on the newest gaming rig. This game certainly has some interesting client/server interactions at times.
"1 lunchbox use over 55 levels" - this sounds a bit misleading you get 100 percent xp bonus from 4 lunchboxes for 60 minutes and based on your logic you're impling you can get up to 55 levels per hour.so for example assuming a player can play let's say 8 hours a day from thursday to monday just grinding west tek that is 440 levels multiplied by 4 days (8 hr gametime) that is well over 1600 levels.Can you eloborate on this because i only have 650 hours with a lv.1581 character and I would like to know this strat.
I’m absolutely maximizing how much xp I’m gaining did you even watch the video before typing this? I’m just curious because I feel like I gave more than enough info
4 lunch boxes gives the most benefits, 100%. Each lunch box gives 25% bonus xp but caps at 100% so you should always use 4 for maximizing xp even at lower levels.
@@shadoink so your saying I should’ve clarified that I meant to use 4 lunch boxes? In the video I said in one lunchbox use, when you use lunchboxes you always try and use 4 so I don’t see using one singular lunchbox as a use, that’s a waste.
No where else has ever even mentioned the quest, they just say to fast travel and wait a minute. Finally, i know why it doesnt work for me. I dont complete garbage quests. Guess i have to now.
Could anyone tell me what rifle he is using? I'm still new to the game, but I want to work toward one that looks like that... unlike the ugly bulky combat rifles lol. Edit: his rifle, not the thirst zapper btw.
How are you getting so much xp at a time I have an instigating thirst zapper too that shoots water and use grenadier demo expert all of that yet I only get a few thousand at a time is it patched on xbox?
I'm on PC and my INT is at 27 + well rested bonus + canned meat stew + 4 players INT boost + Lunch Box XP boost and for some reason i dont get as much XP as him...... Im pist....
You dont have to wait 1 minute. I run run into the basement and kill them all and run back up. You can keep repeating this without ever leaving westek.
@@markplaton84 yeah it’s buggy the people who do have the issue completing that quest will fix it for them and some people just never had to do it it’s weird
What's your perk build? This guy is on a lot of intelligence, and a lot of other boosts. Plus it was a double exp event when he recorded the vid (not sure when it ended)
Have you maxed your intelligence? Started a casual team with four players? Applied buffs like well rested, meat stew, well tuned, live and love 8, equipped amor with intelligence boost, and applied lunch boxes? That’s more than likely how they net that much xp.
Ah, level 247 to level 300 would only be about level 1,110 to 1,115 for me so I understand now. It's maybe a good way to farm experience if you're low on ammo or just want to kill some time but it's probably not any faster than the tried and true traditional method of running West Tek with a Fixer. Edit: You also don't have to stay in the basement for exactly one minute, I usually just clear them all as quickly as possible then go back up and they're all there again, it takes about 30s.
It’s def way faster because it’s just 3 grenades and they all die the blast radius makes it so you don’t have to run around jump up things get an angle on an enemy it just in one big swoop kills them all even through walls
If you don’t do the miscellaneous quest the enemies will not respawn upstairs because I had the problem and I didn’t know you needed to do the quest and was really confused about why they weren’t respawning until I did the quest and it worked fine
one of the worst turtorials iv seen on this, legit cut out huge portions on where to go and what to do in the west tek building, got lost and had to look up a better video to get my bearings. like holy shit
title says INSTANTLY, then the first thing i hear is wait 1 whole min, dictionaries exist, you should look into it. I was also doing this before i completed the quest, I've done this twice so far and will do it two more times, but i just use my fixer, i only use the lunch boxes i saved up between dub xp weekends and what ever other xp boosters i have on hand, its not worth farming little xp boosters IMO, (but you could get 4k xp instead of 2k) SO WHAT, anyway 99% of fo76 players already know whats in this video (the ones who make it over the hump lol). clickbait video titles are bad for a youtube channel, again this is just IMO, i cant speak for anyone else. yes i was asked for my opinion because the comments are not disabled for this video.🤣🤣🤣 ✌ keep it 💯 bruh

I understand none of this. How does eliminating these mutants give that much xp? Also, what buffs?
You’re biting off too much at once if this is too much for you, i recommend just questing until you figure more of this stuff out

I’m maximizing my intelligence with chems/unyielding armor and food buffs
Also the higher level you are the more xp you get, so if your only level 30 you’ll get small amounts compared to a level 50
is not instant respawn, it's always needed to wait one minute or you exit from west teck or you take the lift. one minute is mandatory
Thanks...🎉
