Fallout 76 events

Event is a type of quest in Fallout 76.

Events are meant to be played by everyone in a party. Thus, upon a completion of an event, every member of the party receives rewards. The player character can refuse partaking in an event by leaving the area.

There are several types of events:
 * Claim workshop: Claim a workshop to access its resources.
 * Defend location: Defend a workshop location from hostilities.
 * Fertile soil: Kill a number of Mr. Farmhands and change their targeting perimeters.
 * The Messenger: Ensure Mr. Messenger gets to his destination to deliver his message.
 * Powering up location: Make basic repairs to the reactor, generator and cooling systems.
 * Protectron horde: Find the source of the protectron horde.
 * Tea Time: defend the Giant Teapot from waves of hostiles.
 * Retake location: Retake a previously claimed workshop.

Claim workshop
A nearby workshop is available to be claimed and has an machine that will generate resources hourly when powered. Player characters can claim it after clearing all enemies around it and defeating other player characters that contest the claim. After claiming, a miscellaneous quest will start to power the machine. After a short time, a defend location event will also begin.

Defend location
After claiming a workshop, the player character will have to defend the location from waves of incoming hostiles in order it and acquire its hourly resource output. The player character will be given 1 minute and 30 seconds before the first wave to prepare defenses using the workshop. If the event is failed or the workshop is claimed by another player character, a retake location event will begin.

Powering Up Poseidon
Poseidon Energy Plant WV-06 has failed. Repair its systems and get the power back on.

Retake location
When a claimed workshop is lost, the player character will have the choice to reclaim it by defeating the enemies at its location. The defend location event will begin again soon after retaking the location.
