The Bell Tolls is a quest that was removed from Fallout 76.
Although structured like an event, The Bell Tolls did not actually properly function as an in-game event; rather, it took the form of a miscellaneous quest that occasionally appeared in Charleston. The Bell Tolls was disabled with the Nuka-World on Tour update, with no announced plans for its return.[1]
Quick walkthrough[]
- Head to the church to start the quest.
- Defeat the mole rat waves, loot the disturbed dirt container after each wave.
Detailed walkthrough[]
The quest started upon nearing First Friends Church, triggering a pre-recorded message by Melody Larkin. Inside the church, the player had to fight several mole rats, appearing in three waves with increasing difficulty, with the first wave being easy mole rats, the second medium and the third hard. Between each wave, a "disturbed dirt" container appeared inside the church, which could be looted for randomized rewards. After beating the last wave and looting the last container, the quest completed without additional rewards.
Quest stages[]
Bugs[]
All of these bugs became moot when the quest was disabled in December 2022.
The Bell Tolls event was intended to be playable, but encountered a bug in which it would never properly start.[verified]
- The automated radio message from Melody Larkin, as well as the First Friends Church tolling bells, would play if the player entered the Charleston area. The "Search Disturbed Dirt for Salvage" quest stage would appear, but the event would not start.
- The automated radio message from Melody Larkin would play upon receiving the miscellaneous quest to turn in the Lode Baring claim tokens at a claim terminal. If the player did not turn in the tokens and complete the quest, this message would play every time they joined a server.[verified]
