In the aftermath of the bombs dropping in and around Appalachia, much of the wasteland is barren and rife with danger. But some settlements and tows prove relatively sane and peaceful. Helvetia is neither. It’s a strange haven. But it’s where you’ll find the annual Fasnacht Event! Here is where to find Helvetia in Fallout 76!
How to Find Helvetia in Fallout 76
You can find Helvetia in Fallout 76 by venturing into The Forest region, an early-game portion of the world map, and then head south of Morgantown, along the river, and just east of Sutton. It’s a small town with a main road, a three-way intersection, and a handful of buildings, including a church and several residential abodes.
Overall, the area is relatively quiet for the post-apocalypse. It’s home to a handful of Scorched on any given day, except during Fasnacht when all hell breaks loose, and people flock to the town in droves to celebrate in strange masks and with music aplenty!
Quests in Helvetia
You won’t find typical quests in Helvetia, though you will partake in various events, such as Fasnacht Day. It’s an annual event that brings players together to help the Protectrons of Helvetia celebrate the iconic albeit strange holiday commonly found in West Virginia. It’s characterized by strange masks, cheerful music, and plenty of brews to wash down the radiation.
