Have you ever felt the call of the open road, or in this case, the irradiated wasteland? In Fallout 76, adventure awaits at every turn, and few locations hold as much intrigue as the ruined beauty of Atlantic City. But before you can gamble with fate in the casinos of old, you’ll need to know how to navigate the treacherous landscape. Fear not, fellow wastelander! This guide will be your compass, leading you safely to the legendary boardwalk and beyond.
Charting Your Course: Reaching the City by the Sea
Starting Your Journey: Finding the Right Path
Your journey to Atlantic City begins in the relative safety of Appalachia. Depending on your current location and playstyle, there are several paths you can take.
- For the Lone Wanderer: If you prefer to blaze your own trail, heading east on foot offers a chance to explore the diverse biomes of Appalachia. Be warned, however, this path is fraught with danger. Super Mutants, Scorched, and even Cryptids roam these lands.
- Seeking Safety in Numbers: Joining a team can make the journey significantly easier. With multiple players to share the burden of combat and resource gathering, you can progress more rapidly.
Expert Tip from Ranger Sarah, author of “Wasteland Survival for Dummies”: “No matter your chosen path, always be prepared for the unexpected. Pack ample supplies, including RadAway and Stimpaks, and ensure your weapons are in top condition.”
Navigating the Ruins: Landmarks and Hazards
As you draw closer to Atlantic City, the landscape transforms. Crumbling skyscrapers pierce the sky, remnants of a bygone era. Use these landmarks to guide your way:
- The Abandoned Amusement Park: A haunting reminder of happier times, this location is a hotbed for Scorched activity. Proceed with caution, but don’t forget to loot the Ferris wheel cars for valuable scrap.
- The Waterfront Docks: Once bustling with trade, the docks are now a haven for Mirelurks and other aquatic creatures. Keep your distance from the water’s edge unless you’re well-armed.
- The Boardwalk: Your first glimpse of the famed boardwalk will take your breath away, even in its ruined state. However, danger lurks here too. Feral Ghouls, attracted by the scent of decay, make the boardwalk their home.
Feng Shui Tip: According to ancient Chinese beliefs, water represents wealth and prosperity. While the waters surrounding Atlantic City are treacherous, keeping a small fountain or water feature at your CAMP is said to attract good fortune in your scavenging endeavors.

The Heart of the City: Reaching Your Destination
Reaching the center of Atlantic City signifies the end of your journey, but the beginning of your adventure. Explore the remnants of casinos, uncover hidden treasures, and perhaps even test your luck against the odds in a game of post-apocalyptic poker. But be wary, the city holds secrets, and not all who wander its streets are what they seem…

Atlantic City is not for the faint of heart. Be prepared to face a variety of enemies, from the relentless Scorched to the mutated horrors lurking in the depths of abandoned buildings.
