man i done fucked around and have put close to 200 hours in Fallout 76 LMAO
finally started playing with randoms after I learned that the only way they can hurt you is if they become hostile towards you. I've only had it happen 2x. Basically, there are workshops in Appalachia that you can take over. Like a bunch. All of them exist on different servers so if you own ABC on one server, its possible for it to be unowned on another one
anyways, I found a workshop over on some obscure part of the map, like in an area I hadnt previously discovered. Took it over, then all of a sudden, I see another human player coming towards me. I didnt think anything of it initially b/c practically all of my experiences with other players has been positive. All of a sudden, this motherfucker starts shooting at me and trying to take over my base.
in fallout 76, when you die, most of your inventory is put in a paper bag until you return to pick it up which means if another human player kills you, they can take your shit and some of the shit you gotta find is kinda hard to farm b/c of the low spawn percentages. So needless to say I was pissed. At first I was just gonna let it go. He had on power armor and I was just wearing some flimsy ass shit cause it costs a lot of caps to get heavy armor plans BUT im running a melee build character that was knocking shit out in one swing. So i was like let me see if i can get this fucker.
I tried to sneak up on him but he could see my marker approaching. I got close to him and he was under this stairway. I have a mutation that allows me to jump really high so I faked him out and acted like i was gonna jump on the other side of the stairway. Using power armor is clunky cause your pov is distorted some which i was banking on happening. So I jump in the air and just fell straight back down. When I landed, he had his back turned ready to fire as he thought i was gonna be on the other side. YES!!!
I hit that motherfucker 2x and killed him even though he was wearing power armor, and took my shit back. I didnt have a mic to talk to him but i kept swinging after he was dead. I saw him respawn and his marker was headed my way. I jumped servers after that LMAO
