The Gatling Plasma mods are the latest must-have upgrades in Fallout 76, offering powerful customizations for your weapon. If you’re struggling to get your hands on these elusive mods, you’re not alone. In this guide, we’ll break down all the methods to obtain these mods and share a fast-tracking trick to maximize your farming efficiency.

Understanding Gatling Plasma Mods

Before you start farming, you need to ensure you’ve unlocked the Gatling Plasma plan:

White Springs Bunker: Purchase the Gatling Plasma plan at the Enclave terminal.
Access the Bunker: Complete the Enclave questline to unlock the bunker. If you’re unfamiliar with this questline, refer to video guides or tutorials.

Once you’ve learned the Gatling Plasma plan, mods can start dropping from certain events, vendors, and farming methods.

Top Methods to Farm Gatling Plasma Mods

1. Nuclear Key Card Escort Farming

One of the most efficient ways to farm mods is by completing the Nuclear Key Card Escort event. Here’s how:

Access the Event: Start the mission in the White Springs Bunker.
Locate the Cargobot: After calling the escort, fast travel outside to pinpoint its location.
Defeat the Cargobot: Be cautious of terrain—avoid areas with trees to prevent the cargo from getting stuck.

Pro Tip: Do NOT collect the nuclear key card after completing the event. Instead, return to the main menu, switch servers, and restart the event without needing to revisit the bunker. This allows you to farm continuously.

2. US Government Supply Requisition Events

While less efficient, you can also farm Supply Drops:

Use Holotapes: Activate Supply Requisition holotapes to call in supply crates.
Collision Course Event: Participate in this event for additional crates.

Note: The drop rate for Gatling Plasma mods from supply crates is extremely low (around 0.5%).

3. Vendor Hopping

Certain vendors in Fallout 76 have a chance to sell Gatling Plasma mods:

White Springs Vendors: Check the Free States, Brotherhood, and Raider vendors in White Springs Mall.
Vendor Bot Phoenix: Located near Watoga Station.
Watoga Shopping Plaza Vendor: Another potential source for mods.

Pro Tip: Place your CAMP near Watoga Station. Equip the Brotherhood Initiate Companion (Dell)—if available in your CAMP—to streamline vendor hopping.

Optimized Farming Strategy

Combine the methods for maximum efficiency:

Start with the Nuclear Key Card Escort event to farm cargo drops.
Visit Vendor Bot Phoenix, the Watoga vendor, and the White Springs Mall vendors in sequence.
Use your CAMP to quickly access the Brotherhood Initiate vendor for additional mod chances.
Server hop and repeat the process.

By hitting multiple sources in one run, you increase your chances of finding the mods without wasting time.

Additional Tips for Success

Patience is Key: Drop rates for these mods can be low, so be prepared to invest time into farming.
Master Infiltrator Perk: Speeds up the process of unlocking supply crates and cargo drops.
Server Hopping: Refresh vendor inventories and event spawns by switching servers frequently.
Save Caps: Enclave plasma mods can also appear while farming, which can be sold for extra Fallout 76 caps.
