Firstly, it’s important to note that Pure Flux isn’t something you can just pick up and find in Fallout 76. Instead, you’ll have to craft it. But before you can do that, you’ll need to come across the different Raw variants of Flux.

You can find Raw Flux in blast zones from nukes launched by yourself or other players. It’s not just lying around in massive chunks, though. You’ll need to get this off any flora within the blast zone. We’ve got a list below comprising what plants give you which type of Raw Flux.

Plants Containing Raw Cobalt Flux in Fallout 76

  • Bloodleaf
  • Firecracker Berry
  • Glowing Resin
  • Silt Bean
  • Starlight Creeper
  • Wild Corn
  • Wild Mutfruit

Plants Containing Raw Crimson Flux in Fallout 76

  • Aster
  • Blight
  • Brain Fungus
  • Cranberry
  • Firecap
  • Mothman Eggs
  • Wild Gourd Blossom

Plants Containing Raw Fluorescent Flux in Fallout 76

  • Glowing Fungus
  • Rhododendron

Plants Containing Raw Violet Flux in Fallout 76

  • Giant Pitcher Plant
  • Ginseng
  • Mutated Fern
  • Snaptail
  • Strangler Pod
  • Wild Razorgrain
  • Wild Tarberry
  • Wild Tato Blossom

Plants Containing Raw Yellowcake Flux in Fallout 76

  • Ash Rose
  • Blackberry
  • Bleach Dogwood
  • Soot Flower
  • Wild Melon Blossom

So, what you want to do now is head into a blast zone and search for any of the above-mentioned plants. Harvest them by pressing X on PS, A on Xbox, and E on PC. Then, once you’ve gotten some Raw Flux, you’ll be ready to craft the pure version.

How to Make Pure Flux From Raw Flux

It’s worth noting at this point that you’ll need at least 10 Raw Flux to make Pure Flux in Fallout 76. Furthermore, that needs to be 10 of the same kind of Raw Flux. So, for example, you can’t have seven Yellowcake and three Cobalt to make one Pure.

Then, once you’ve managed to gather 10 Raw Flux of any kind, you’ll have to go to a Chemistry Station. Here, you should now find a new section called ‘Nuked Flora.‘ Within this, you’ll now find recipes for a number of variants of Stable Flux.

In order to craft Pure Flux, you’ll need the following materials at a Chemistry Station:

  • Glowing Mass
  • Hardened Mass
  • High-Radiation Fluids
  • Raw Flux (x 10)

Resources That Spawn With Flux

Other resources you can find besides Flux when roaming the blast zones are Glowing Mass, Hardened Mass, and Hight-Radiation Fluids, all of which you’ll need for crafting. However, these don’t spawn on flora but on enemies instead, and you’ll have to defeat these enemies if you want to collect them.

Now, all the items you’ll need to craft different types of Stable Flux should be easy to get. Also, Stable Flux is categorized as a Junk Item in Fallout 76. Therefore, you can use it in place of Pure Flux for any crafting recipes for under armor or weapons that require it.

Well, that concludes this guide on how to get Pure Flux in Fallout 76. If you need more tips, tricks, and guides for your West Virginia wastelands journey, be sure to check our comprehensive and all-encompassing Fallout 76 guide wiki.
