Expected Changes for CAMP Revamp Update (Patch 62 / Season 22) on 2nd Sept 2025
Once again, the next content update is just around the corner. The current PTS is coming to an end, and there are numerous changes, which I'll outline in more detail here today. The update, called "C.A.M.P. Revamp", will be released on September 2nd, 2025. Season 21 will end and Season 22: Appalachian Modern Living will begin.

C.A.M.P. Menu Revamp
The CAMP building menu is a central focus of this update. The CAMP building menu has become increasingly confusing over the years, and you sometimes had to search for a long time to find certain items. This has now changed.
The new CAMP building menu has been restructured and groups relevant elements into clear sections. This makes it much faster to find the items you're looking for.
Furthermore, the placement rules for all items have been made 100% flexible. If you set the workshop building rules to "Relaxed" in the game settings, the new rules will be active. You now have the option of choosing whether you want to snap items into place normally, if they should collide or simply place them free. "Completely free" placement truly means free placement. You can place items inside each other or simply in the air. Everything that previously required various tricks like "merge" glitches is now possible with the built-in tools.
The categories are:
- Quests
- Objectives (This category only appears when a quest is active and will disappear after the quest is completed.
- C.A.M.P. Pieces
- Foundations
- Porches
- Floors
- Walls
- Roofs

With these new tools, you can really easily build amazing, creative CAMPs. I'm really excited to see what kind of CAMPs the community will conjure up with them.
Changed Perk Cards
Perk cards are changing again. Many of them are also fundamentally changing their functions. However, we've now covered all areas, so there shouldn't be many new fundamental changes in the near future. In this update, the perk cards for heavy weapons, bows and melee have been adjusted.
One important change, for example, is the "Tank Killer" perk card. This now only uses two ranks and applies to all ranged weapons, including heavy weapons.
You can find all the detailed changes in the article:
Balancing

You can find all details of the PTS Patchnotes in the article:
Caravans (Milepost Zero)
All players now receive the same amount of supplies, regardless of who started.
An event lasts a maximum of 7 minutes. Even if a Brahmin stops and is still alive after 7 minutes, the players still receive their reward.
Event: "Mischief Night" is back again
The long-missing "Mischief Night" event was back on the PTS and it will be making its way back into the game this fall! The event was unfortunately shut down in 2019 due to seemingly unsolvable bugs. Now, 5 years later, Night of Mischief has been completely reworked and repositioned in Skyline Valley. The event now takes place in Rapidan Camp and there are tons of new rewards. It was announced in the community calendar for 7th Oct 2025 - 21st Oct 2025.
The goal of the event is to devastate the Rapidan Camp, setting fires and sowing chaos. You'll fight against the Lost and time to complete all objectives. At the end, the Vertibird will be blown up on the helipad, and you'll receive your reward. You can view all the rewards in the post and check off them with your Nuka Knights checklists during the event.
Locking Items
From now on, any item can be locked. This means it can no longer be dropped, scrapped, or sold. This is possible in the Pipboy, in the storage chest, at a workbench, at vending machines, from allies, while looting, and so on.
Power armor pieces retain their locked status even when installed or removed from the chassis.
This can also lock items, food, or other items. However, you still drop locked scrap upon death.
Floating Damage Numbers
Damage values can now be displayed "floating". This was a default setting on the PTS. It's possible that this will also be the new default setting for damage values live. When this setting is active, the damage values will bubble up from the hit target like a fountain.
And here is an example of how it looks in the game:
Enclave Plasma Rifle Mods
Starting with Patch 62, there's a 10% chance of receiving any Enclave Plasma Mod from all Enclave events. This new list includes all mods, not just a few. If you're collecting mods, don't miss out on the Enclave events. The 10% Enclave Mod chance is available from the following events:
- Enclave Event: Lost Connection
- Enclave Event: Bots on Parade
- Enclave Event: A real blast
The list contains the following Enclave Plasma Mods:

Paddleball Mods
Since the release of Fallout 76, there have been several paddleball mods that were not normally available.
- Weaponized Nuka-Cola Cherry Ball
- Weaponized Nuka-Cola Ball
- Weaponized Nuka-Cola Quantum Ball
These mods have now been removed from the workbench on the PTS.
The Electrified Ball was already "Cut Content" before.
Only these paddleball mods are available on the workbench:
- Bladed Ball
- Fire Ball
- Spiked Ball
- Rubber Ball (Standard)
BUT the mods are still present on the paddleballs. These paddleballs are still tradable. The removed mods can now be found in the data under "POST." This may prevent these mods from being crafted or dropping again.
Rare Fasnacht Masks
The last Fasnacht event already featured new masks, and the lists have been reorganized so that only the glowing masks are truly rare. Now there's another change. General Zeta, the boss alien from the "Invaders from Beyond" event, now also has a 5% chance of dropping rare fasnacht masks. We'll see if this actually goes live. In any case, the list is linked to General Zeta, and it's now possible.

You can find a full preview in these articles:
New Atomic Shop Items
The PTS Atomic Shop datamines revealed numerous new items. Some were released after Patch 61. However, many of them won't make their way into the Atom Shop until after this patch. Here are a few examples:

Preparations for future Updates
Possible Map Expansion
In Point Pleasant, some reconstruction work has been done on this PTS. It seems as if the bridge will soon be accessible again, and a new area behind it might become available.
New "Mini" Raid feat. the "Drifter"
Datamining has also revealed a kind of "mini" raid on the PTS. It appears to take place in an area of West Tek (similar to the fight against Dr. Blackburn). It can be activated using "Drifter Cards" that you receive during public events.
The "Drifter" apparently has some kind of teleportation ability, and there don't seem to be any distinct areas. The rewards are divided into five levels, based on the Drifter's health when you die. So, it sounds like an intense fight that you might not win. Hopefully, we'll find out exactly what that looks like on the next PTS.
New legendary 4 Star Mods
On the PTS, there was a 20% chance of obtaining 4-star items from the "mini" raid against the Drifter. Alternatively, you can receive 3-, 2-, or 1-star items, just like in the previous raid. And there was a 10% chance of obtaining 4-star mods. This doesn't refer to the old mods, however, but to new 4-star mods.
New Armor & Weapons
What was also already visible on the PTS were weapons that were also supposed to be rewards from the Drifter Raid. There was also a new Settlers armor.
Unfortunately, neither the mini raid nor the new 4-star mod nor the weapons/armor are part of this update. So, we'll have to wait and see what happens in the next update.
