My Shelter has been going pretty well so I decided to send one of my deweller to the Wasteland. I prepered him by giving lots of Stimpacks, Guns and ect... But he dosen't seem to be using any of the things to pretect himslef... How do I help him?



Best Answer

Your dweller will automatically use the Stimpacks when he becomes injured enough. Ditto for Radaway with radiation. You can see his health and how irradiated he is by clicking on the Wasteland. It will bring up a list of all your dwellers who are out there that you can scroll through. You can also see the gun that he's wielding. A bigger gun will minimise the damage he gets in each encounter, but even if he wins, he's still likely to get damage, and can even die after a successful encounter if his health is low enough and he's out of Stimpacks.

The only thing you can do to help your dweller is to recall him. It will take half as long for him to get back to the Vault and he will suffer no further damage or increased radiation on his way back. If he was wandering for 26 hours it will take him 13 hours to get back. If he dies in the Wasteland he can be revived for a certain number of caps, just like the dwellers in the Vault after an attack.

How long does it take to explore the Wasteland in Fallout Shelter?

There seems to be no limit to the exploration time, some events occurr at 75 hours of exploration, but some player touched the 90 hours mark. The level of the dweller does not matter for the chances at finding gear, but the S.P.E.C.I.A.L.

How long should you let your dweller explore?

My longest runs so far are around 36 hours of exploration and 18 hours return trip. The low level luck people I used to send out would still bring back rusty whatever guns and BB guns even towards the end of their trips. They did some times come back with a nice rifle or the like but that was rare.

What happens if a dweller dies while exploring?

If a dweller dies while on an excursion, you can revive him at a significant cost in caps. Dwellers sent outside of the Vault to explore the Wasteland, are removed from the current Vault roster and made for assignment until they return.

Does Luck help in the Wasteland fallout shelter?

Luck also affects the chance of rush attempts succeeding. In the wasteland, it increases the chances of finding items when dwellers go out on quests and explore locations in the wasteland. The higher the Luck, the better the items. During quest combat, it increases the speed at which the critical hit meter fills.
