How To Find Atomic Batteries With Leads in Atomfall

In Atomfall, securing Atomic Batteries and depositing them at The Interchange is crucial for progressing the main storyline. Leads related to Atomic Batteries provide multiple locations where they can be found. Here are the leads I've discovered:

• "A Fruitful Trade": This lead indicates that the Reverend obtained his Atomic Battery from a trader named Molly, located west of Wyndham Village. Molly has another battery available and particularly values Molotov Cocktails in trades.

• "Batteries and All": Found in the sewers, this lead suggests that the druids possess Atomic Batteries in their castle within Casterfell Woods, southwest of the area. Navigate through the camp to a door flanked by two blue fire torches, leading to the Castle Ruins. The battery is near a High Priestess overlooking a valley.

• "Battery Request at the Skethermoor Depot": This lead points to a battery at the Skethermoor Vehicle Depot, southeast of Skethermoor at coordinates 43.4 E, 74.6 N. Locate a blue hatch next to two greenhouses on a hill. Descend into the main room, clear out any Outlaws, and proceed to the room down and to the left. Climb into the room with the red light, navigate through the vent to obtain a key, and use it to unlock the room with the Atomic Battery. Ensure you have Radiation Resistance to survive the retrieval.

• "Molly Sold a Battery to the Vicar": This lead reveals that Molly sold another battery to the vicar at St. Katherine’s Church in Wyndham Village. This lead can be ignored if you've already obtained the Reverend's battery.

• "Revered Got His Hands on a Battery": A note from Alf points to the Reverend's Atomic Battery at St. Katherine’s Church in Wyndham Village. Inside the church, the Reverend is involved in a murder cover-up. Use the bargaining option to promise silence, blackmailing him for the key to his upstairs chest containing the Atomic Battery.

• "Spare Batteries at the Dam": This lead discloses Atomic Batteries at the Dam in Casterfell Woods, northwest at coordinates 20.9 E, 90.9 N. The battery is in the electrical area on the right side facing the Dam. Enter the Control Room, pull the Substation Override lever until the right light turns red, and safely retrieve the battery without electrical hazards.

Can You Barter for Batteries in Atomfall? Answered

If locating Atomic Batteries proves challenging, consider bartering as an alternative. Molly offers an Atomic Battery in exchange for goods, and other traders may also have them due to their rotating inventory.

Traders have preferences indicated by green, yellow, or red icons when you offer items. Green signifies high preference, while red indicates low interest. Experimenting with different items before finalizing a trade can help secure a better deal for Atomic Batteries.

How To Extract Atomic Batteries from Robots in Atomfall

In Atomfall, the Protocol deploys large, deadly, armored robots across the Zone, often guarding key areas or patrolling. These robots are powered by Atomic Batteries, which you can claim by disabling them.

The most effective method is to target flamethrower-wielding robots from a distance using a rifle. Shoot the red barrels to overheat and stun the robot, then approach and extract the Atomic Battery from its back.

Atomfall is now available on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and Xbox Game Pass.
