Fallout 76: Where to find and use the pickaxe – guide
The one thing to note is that there are a few spots where the pickaxes spawn, so you might have to go out of your way to search for them. One may assume that theMole Minersmay have them, but sadly, they do not.
As of now, there seem to befour pickaxes waiting to be found. you’re able to read below to learn the location. However, I recommend using the map as well. The world of Fallout 76 is massive. Having a direction can speed things up quite a bit.

However, some players have also found pickaxes dropped by theScorched enemy type. This could be a good spot to farm for the weapon.
How to use the pickaxe
You may be thinking that this tool is a tool. But, like most other items found in Fallout 76, it’s modified to beused as a weapon. However, I would not recommend using this weapon as much.It’s slow-moving and two-handed. So, if you’re planning on fighting enemies likethe Radtoad, I would say only use the pickaxe unless you need to.
Looks like you can nowenter Vault 63 in Fallout 76, just don’t use the pickaxe to defend yourself.
