Fallout 76 Minerva Location, Schedule, Inventory – Guide
Any open-world game such as destiny 2 or fallout 4 needs to have a vendor or a shopkeeper for you to purchase items. They are usually spread out in the world across the map. Many games also have a rare shopkeeper or a vendor who sells rare items.
If you are wondering if there is something similar in Fallout 76, yes, there is. Minerva is a traveling vendor that you will find in a few locations in Fallout 76. Minerva is worth looking around for her rare plans. You can purchase them much cheaper from Minerva. But, the catch is that she is not always available, and her locations are limited.
Minerva Overview
Minerva is a traveling merchant in Appalachia who provides fantastic prices on rare plans that you’ve been eyeing but may not have had the gold bullion to purchase at full price. Minerva initially came from Washington DC, where she escaped the Great War bombings by hiding in a library that served as a secondary refuge.
Her abilities drew the notice of several Blue Ridge Caravan, and she joined them and eventually became an apprentice at a bookstore. She learned how to hand-copy books from the bookseller, who became a friend and mentor to her over time.
Following his death, she took over his caravan and extended its collection. Minerva claims to have a photographic memory, which helps with these recreations, and she sells “recreations” of rare designs and recipes from her caravan.
She designs her weaponry and other goods. Although her appearance is rare, she may be found in one of three locations: Foundation, The Crater, or Fort Atlas. But, she is only there from Monday to Wednesday.
Fallout 76 Minerva Locations
As mentioned before, Minerva is available for a limited period. Minerva can be found in three places. She emerges in a new spot each time. Check out the schedule below to learn about her current and forthcoming spawn locations.
There are three probable locations:
- Foundation: Take a Quick Trip to the Foundation. Follow the route to the gate, and you will find her on the right side just after the bridge.
- Crater: Take a Quick Trip to Crater and head west, in the opposite direction of the corn fields. You will find Minerva and her tiny camp there.
- Fort Atlas: Get Quick access to Fort Atlas. She will be on the right side, near the Fort, if you are facing the gates.
