just for future readers ... atom shop items are skins.
i bought the Secret Service Jet Pack plan and i kinda knew i needed flux... but now i cant find it for sale anywhere... in any state besides inert. ive been slowly gathering mass and fluids to make them myself but it takes so many raw to make a pure .... i wish someone would nuke white springs ....

so im also looking but just for cobalt now so many fissure launches ive had the violet for a while.... you would think that some interpid folks would corner the flux market and then start a flux price war where we the buyers get the best out of it all ;)

Flux doesn't last long enough to make the space it takes up in your storage/vendor viable before it decays so a lot of people don't bother selling it.

Ppl only nuke the bottom right. Could I run around that blast site and collect the flowers then go turn them into what I need?

Just kill SBQ a few times. And yeah you can, but remember than not every kind of flowers can be found in 1 place (google what flowers u need for certain flux).

Klakson is wrong, you CANT make them into what you need, each flowers is linked to a color, so you can only get the right colored flux by harvesting the right plants. and SBQ Nuke is a very bad place to gather most colors. best variete in colors is whitespring, and even there you will miss out on one color you get best when a forest area with many treeresin spawns is bombed.
Klakson Jun 18, 2020 @ 8:33am 
"not every kind of flowers can be found in 1 place" So how am I wrong? (I assumed that everyone knows that certain flux drops from certain flowers). So he CAN run around, pick up flowers and turn them into what he needs if he pick right flowers.

he asked if he can make from the plants what he want you answered "And yeah you can... "

I'm emailing bethesda support and asking for my 500 atoms back because if i wouldve known i had to craft the jetpack and it would be this convoluted, i wouldnt have bought that

Actually, SBQ nuke zone is good/decent for most color EXCEPT Cobalt, if you have green thumb (perk) equiped.

  • Crimson - plenty
  • Violet - plenty
  • Fluorescent - good amount
  • Yellowcake - a few of them, probably enough unit for create 2 dose of stable flux
  • Cobalt - It is impossible to collect enough flora to create a single dose of stable Cobalt flux within SBQ nuke zone. Try other nuke zone. The less popular nuke zone whitespring may provide enough flora for a few dose of stable flux

However, each time you finish the SBQ run, you will receive some random stable flux - chance are, once you got enough SBQ run, you may collect enough of stable flux at your own.

( Source - I often spend a few minutes collecting flora after SBQ fight.)

You could get enough raw violet flux easily.
However you will not find enough raw cobalt flux to make one.

Even if you get the raw flux you still need the masses and fluids to craft. If you do not have the requires masses and fluids first then picking the flowers for raw flux is pointless.

Good luck with that because it says it is a skin right on the item.

It aint that hard to make flux. You could get the 5 violet flux and 5 cobalt flux you need by nuking Morgantown and Haprer's Ferry. Go kill the mobs for a while collecting the fluids and masses, then go pick the flowers.

The problem is that all the nuke codes I had saved up are suddenly gone from my inventory. I didn't drop them either.

its where violet flux is abundant, the other things you need to make it stable is the hard part, hardened mass and high radiation fluids etc, i always hit up the watoga train station, often players will dump all that extra stuff either in a bag or a suitcase or sell what they can to the bot there...nothing stable of course but inert flux and mass and fluids sometimes i get lucky.
the nuking of the lower right is where the end story creature event take plkace the fissure site, and thats why its targeted the most. but there are so many oother areas people havnt nuked. and in the pre wastelanders days you could log onto nuke zones in three separate places...
as people were farming flux and stuff to make those rad showers and such jet packs etc... then wastelanders came out and its fissure prime launches all day erry day. unless some people are looking for the windigo boss battle and are nuking random zones....i liek you just want to gather some stuff to craft a jet pack. me because i want this particular jet pack and you because you want to use the skin you purchased. and because you want a jet pack...

makes me wonder what new thing we will need when the next themed content drop comes and it has to be power armor related dealing with the BoS. or i hope.

The nuclear keycode pieces are irrelevant and unnecessary. You only need them if you want to actually decode it yourself, which you kinda need to be a minor crypologist in real life to do.

All you need is a nuclear keycard (I suggest bringing extra in case you enter code wrong) and visit this website:

Go clear a silo, with a nuclear keycard, you don't need the codes. Go to nukacrypt (dot) com and you'll find the silo codes there and you'll easily launch nukes.
