Nautical bell is there any secret or use about it?

[Lil C]-[ew C]-[ew is ☂д☂]

Asides from being able to ring the bell on the ocean. Is there any real purpose? I have tried browsing the web for some answers but only theories about possible easter egg. But any conversation were made about two years ago and there have been no conclusion on what these bells just do or if they are another forgotten property Bethesda tossed in the game for no reason.

[Incunabulum]

They're bells. I don't know what to tell you - they're bells. They're used by sailors. They're bells.

[ZaggRukk]

Never heard of it.

[Grendalcat]

Immersion.

[Chaosium]

It's just scenery, what the heck? Might as well question why are there so many unenterable houses, they're here for no reason so probably dumdum Bethesda put them here for nothing, like the incompetent programmers they are.

Come on.

If you are talking the ones on buoys (floaty things on the water) they are meant to aid in navigation, they are there for immersion, like the bells on desks. Like the pens and burnt magazines....and the ...Folders sitting out in the open exposed for over 200 years and pristine....
Yep....immersive as ♥♥♥♥!

Well, pens, pencils, burnt magazines, folders, and chalk (and maybe a couple of others) also serve as weightless goods you can sell to neatly clear out a vendor's caps, since they sell for 1 cap each.

Since they can take a mininuke blast without a scratch, I figure they can survive the elements pretty well.

And they sat there for years, just for you! Everyone else thought they were trash and were too lazy to pick them up, but not you! You went out of your way to collect the garbage, cause you were told they had valuable breakdown materials. 'Immersion'. You are the all garbage collector of the world. There is no main quest, just garbage to collect. It's all a conspiracy to clean up the world.

Except folders and burnt magazines, which aren't useful for anything except being sold for 1 cap each.

Anyone found good stuff on seabed? Is it all explored down there?

[The Inept European]

You can die instantly for no obvious reason, that's what I discovered exploring the seabed.

Regards burnt magazines and folders, I guess you can't fire them from a Junk Cannon? Because they're Misc?

[Bishop-Six]

But for what purpose Aquaboy Skill and Mirelurk cakes then?

Sure the Super Mutant Water Station at Graygarden and some other minor possibilities. But imo thats not enough to justify Aquaboy in Perk System and Mirelurk cake for breathing underwater.

The sea is really a big part of the map and i always wanted to find out if theres is something like an entrance for caves or something.

Plenty maximized skills are worthless or don't work as it should so basically I see no point getting Aquaboy/girl if you can craft mirelurk cakes. I'm level 93 and I still didn't bother to pick that skill. They are there in the game probably because those like to be overpowered or are playing in survival mode the mirelurk cake does not last longer when playing in normal mode.

Aquaboy/girl also provides protection from the water's radiation, and saves you having to craft or carry any cakes.

I don't think it's really overpowered given the limited amount of involvement with water in this game, but it's a handy convenience to have.

[Lil C]-[ew C]-[ew is ☂д☂]

I think these skills and some fully maximized make almost like you're using god mode. Besides crafting stuff even mirelurk cake really easy are the ingredients anyway give xp points. On normal mode they can last around 30 minutes per unit.
