Microscopes inFallout 76are more than just environmental objects that fill the various locations in Appalachia. Instead, they serve as the best junk item to scrap to produce fiber optics for crafting and timed challenges. However, there aren’t many locations with many Microscopes to collect at once, especially if you don’t have aFallout 1st subscription, as many Vault Dwellers like yourself are also looking to find them. Still, you can gather enough in a few relatively unknown locations that are easy to farm. Here are all Microscope locations inFallout 76,so you can scrap them to producefiber optics.

All Microscope Locations in Fallout 76

The best place to farm Microscopes inFallout 76is Ella Ames' Bunker. You will find six Microscopes there. Navigating the bunker is also super quick, and there are no enemies to worry about. While this likely won’t be enough to satisfy any timed challenges like ‘scrap junk to produce fiber optics,’ the next best place to find Microscopes is AVR Medical Center. You will discover four Microscopes in the basement and three on the upper floors. However, be aware that the building is full ofScorched enemies, which can pose a challenge. On the bright side, this also means you can kill them to complete more timed challenges requiring you to slay them.
