Updated on June 13, 2025, by Benjamin Joe:Since this article was written, the Fallout TV series was released. Due to the popularity of the show, lots of new players are leaving the vault for the first time to explore all that post-war Appalachia has to offer. This article covered some of the most rewarding daily quests that players could do. However, there were a few more that deserved to be featured for various reasons. As such, this article has been updated to include even more of thebest daily quests in Fallout 76for gamers to pursue.
10Cop A Squatter
Clear Out Some Enemies For Some Goodies
Cop A Squatter is an easy daily quest that has the potential to give out some good rewards. It can be started by speaking to Chief in the Watoga Emergency Services building. Once there, Chief will talk about a location where some squatters need to be removed. It is then just a question of dealing with the squatters.
This daily quest usually takes only a couple of minutes to complete, making it good for those gamers who don’t have much time to play. It also offers some pretty decent rewards for those who do it. It is worth noting that the mod is potentially the best reward. There are some very valuable mods inthe world ofFallout 76.The Enclave Flamer Mod and Enclave Reflex Sight are two mods that are hard to come by. If a player is lucky enough to get one of the rare mods, then it can be traded with another player for some nice items.
9Play Time
Listen To The Murderous Nanny
Chloe is a Miss Nanny robot. She can befound in Berkeley Springs, and she mistakes the player for the child she is supposed to be looking after. This may not sound too bad, but she is actually trying to have the child killed. to do this, she sends the player, ‘the child,’ out on a dangerous mission in the hopes that the player won’t return. Whether it is picking flowers, collecting creature innards, or attending a ‘play date,’ they all end in the same way. They end with the player having to fend off some enemies.
The reason why this is one of thebest daily quests inFallout 76to complete is because it gives players a chance at getting a rare apparel item. Players typically do this quest in the hopes of getting a Tattered Field Jacket. This item is the most valuable piece of clothing in the whole game.
8Queen Of The Hunt
Kill A Cryptid And Process Its DNA
Queen Of The Hunt is a daily quest that can be activated when a player enters the Mire region after reading Shelby O’Rourke’s terminal entries. The player is tasked with hunting a cryptid and taking some of its DNA to be analyzed at the Hunter’s Shack.
There are 3 locations that the player can check out tofind the cryptid. It will only spawn at one of the 3 locations, so there’s a 33% chance of finding the cryptid in the very first location. Once found, it needs to be killed, and its DNA needs to be taken to the Hunter’s Shack. The rewards for this daily quest are also pretty good. Just like the previous daily quest, there’s a small chance for the player to receive a piece of rare apparel for completing Queen Of The Hunt.
7Trick Or Treat
Collect Pumpkins For An Unstable Robot
Trick Or Treat is a very easy daily quest to complete. It involves speaking to Jack O’Lantern over at the Pumpkin House. He will ask the player to bring him 10 pumpkins.
The quest marker usually tries to take players to a fissure site. Instead, gamers can just head behind the Pumpkin House, as there are 10 pumpkins dotted around the back garden. The rewards aren’t the best, and itdoesn’t offer many Caps, but this quest can be completed in less than a minute.
6Waste Not
Take Out Some Robots And Take Their Red Rocket Cores
Another quick and easy daily quest, Waste Not, is best completed just after completing Trick Or Treat. This is because the quest locations are very close to each other. Players will need to take out three enemy robots located just north of Freddy Fear’s House Of Scares. Once they are downed, gamers can loot their Red Rocket Cores and deposit them at the nearby Red Rocket Station.
This dailyquest doesn’t offer anything specialin terms of rewards, but it is a very quick mission, making it a pretty good one to do regularly.

It’s worth noting that the player doesn’t need to return to Boomer with the explosives after collecting them. Upon picking up the last explosive item, the quest will be completed. It is also worth mentioning that some of the possible quest locations can bedifficult for lower levels.
4The Importance Of Communication
Help Wren Maintain Her Equipment

One of the three tubes will be broken, and the player will need to repair it at a Tinker’s Workbench before handing it over to Wren. If the player’s intelligence is 8 or higher, then there’s an option that will net gamers some extra rewards for completing the quest.
It’s worth noting that, despite being called a daily quest, players can only complete this particular mission once every two days. There are two raider-based daily quests in the Crater, and players will be tasked with completing one of them each day.
3Retirement Plan
Help Rocksy ‘Deal’ With A Quitter
Retirement Plan is the other daily quest that players can do forthe raiders in the Crater. As mentioned in the previous entry, this quest can be done once every two days. To complete it, speak to Rocksy. She can always be found leaning up against a broken school bus in the middle of the settlement. Here, she’ll ask the player to deal with a former raider.
There are already a couple of other raiders who are heading for the former raider. It’s possible to speak to these raiders first and either bribe them, kill them, or convince them to leave the former raider alone. The player doesn’t have to go and speak to them as it doesn’t change the overall outcome of the mission. However, speaking to them before dealing with the former raider will give the player some extra caps.
When the player tracks down the former raider, there are a couple of things that they can do. First, kill the former raider and then report to Rocksy for payment. Second, allow the former raider to leave unharmed and lie to Rocksy.
