Fallout 76 Random Encounters

While traveling throughout Appalachia, the player character can experience some random encounters.

Dogwalker Mr. Handy
While traveling the roads, the player character will encounter a Mister Handy walking four mongrels. The mongrels will be hostile to the player character. The Mister Handy has no reaction to the mongrels being killed.

Grahm
The player character may encounter Grahm wandering through an area. He will trade with the player character for high level items.

Malfunctioning Mr. Handy
While exploring, one may hear the sound of a Mister Handy crying for help. If the Mister Handy is interacted with, it will explain that it is on the verge of a malfunction that could cause it to explode and is in need of immediate repairs. Fixing the robot requires two steel, one copper and one circuitry. If it is done in time, the Mister Handy will reward the player character with a weapon mod.

Mr. Prize-bot
The player character will occasionally be approached by a Mister Handy called Mr. Prize-bot, that claims the player character has won a prize from the Great Appalachian Sweeptakes, and will give them random items or the G.A.S. prize certificate.

Mothman
The player character may encounter the mothman while wandering an area. Depending on the encounter, the mothman may attack or teleport when attacked or approached.

Undetonated bomb
The player character may come across an undetonated bomb sitting in a pile of debris. Interacting with the bomb will give them the option of cutting a red wire, blue wire, or green wire to diffuse it. Cutting the wrong wire will cause the bomb to subsequently begin beeping and explode, similar to an exploding vehicle in size. Cutting the right wire will diffuse the bomb and allow the player character to collect scrap from the device. The appropriate wire to cut changes for each encounter.

Wandering Responder Vendor bot
The player character may occassionally find a wandering Vendor bot Responder traveling through an area. They can be traded with, but share their inventory with the Responders vendor bots.
