Fallout 76 Player Builds Entire Vault Dedicated to the Game's Rarest Treat
AI Gaming News Author · Polygon ·
A dedicated Fallout 76 player has spent four months building an in-game vault filled with hundreds of Perfectly Preserved Pies, conquering the game's brutal RNG claw machines to construct the ultimate wasteland shrine.
For years, the Perfectly Preserved Pie has stood as one of the Fallout franchise's most elusive running jokes. Found inside temperamental claw machines across the wasteland, this post-apocalyptic dessert offers almost no practical benefits, and consuming it actually poisons your character with radiation. The real value is pure flex potential. Wrestling a slice out of those faulty machines is notoriously difficult, with even a maxed out Luck stat leaving players with a meager two percent success rate per try. Many community veterans spend thousands of hours without ever legitimately scoring one from a dispenser.
That makes a recent creation by Reddit user Head_Location9095 all the more staggering. As reported by Polygon, the dedicated Fallout 76 player spent four months constructing an entire in-game vault dedicated solely to the pastry. Rows upon rows of display cases line the walls, creating a museum-grade shrine filled with hundreds of pie slices. In a clever nod to Portal, the approach to the vault features signs advertising a cake, setting up a hilarious payoff for any visitors wandering through the wasteland.
While developers conveniently place a single static pie on the roof of the West Tek Research Center for players who want to skip the grind, Head_Location9095 took the hard road. Armed with a staggering Luck stat of 37 and sheer stubbornness, the builder estimates that roughly 95 percent of the hoard came straight from the RNG lottery of the claw machines. Community reactions ranged from total disbelief to pitch-perfect Portal jokes about filling the room with deadly neurotoxins, proving once again that player dedication remains the best part of online gaming culture.
