Artillery Piece (Fallout 76)

The artillery piece is a miscellaneous item in Fallout 76. It can be built at a C.A.M.P. once the plans have been acquired. These can be acquired by finding the plans in Fort Defiance, or by purchasing the plans from a robot vendor, and then constructing them.

Characteristics
The artillery piece functions nearly identically to Fallout 4's, with exception to needing to be powered instead of manned by a settler. Once per day the box beside the Artillery Piece will generate 10 artillery flares, that can be used within a certain range of the placed artillery.

Once thrown, an artillery flare will generate a tower of blue smoke, upon which the artillery piece will then take about 15-20 seconds to fire 5 cannonballs at the target area, (Note: the points hit being slightly randomized, & rarely ever on the exact spot the flare is placed)

After firing, it will take about 10-15 minutes (though some have reported waiting up to half an hour) for the artillery piece to reload; any flares thrown during this time will only inform the player the piece is loading, & will subsequently waste the thrown flare.

Bugs
The storage box connected to the artillery piece allows any type of item to be stored in it by the player. This allows for multiple types of glitches including item duplication exploits and bypassing the My stash box storage limits.

((unconfirmed sources from Bethesda have claimed this will be patched in one of the upcoming updates to help fix the game's balance, economy))
