In *Atomfall*, Atomic Batteries are not just a crucial item for advancing the storyline; they're also a valuable asset for bartering. Having extra batteries can significantly enhance your trading power. Here’s a comprehensive guide on how to acquire Atomic Batteries in *Atomfall*.

How To Find Atomic Batteries With Leads in Atomfall

To progress through the main story in *Atomfall*, you must find Atomic Batteries and deposit them at The Interchange. Leads within the game provide valuable hints on where to locate these batteries. Here are some of the leads and their associated locations:

  • “A Fruitful Trade” indicates that the Reverend obtained his Atomic Battery from a trader named Molly, located west of Wyndham Village. Molly has another battery and is particularly interested in trading for Molotov Cocktails.
  • “Batteries and All” found in the sewer, suggests that the druids might possess Atomic Batteries at their castle in Casterfell Woods, southwest of the area. Navigate through the camp to a door flanked by blue fire torches, enter the Castle Ruins, and find the battery next to the High Priestess overlooking a valley.
  • “Battery Request at the Skethermoor Depot” points to a battery at the Skethermoor Vehicle Depot, southeast of Skethermoor at coordinates 43.4 E, 74.6 N. Access it through a blue hatch near two greenhouses on a hill. After clearing out any Outlaws, follow the path down and to the left, climb into a room with a red light, and use a vent to reach a key that unlocks the room with the battery. Don't forget to take Radiation Resistance to survive the environment.
  • “Molly Sold a Battery to the Vicar” notes that Molly sold another battery to the vicar in St. Katherine’s Church in Wyndham Village. This lead can be ignored if you’ve already secured the Reverend’s battery.
  • “Revered Got His Hands on a Battery” from Alf, hints at the Reverend's battery at St. Katherine’s Church. Upon entering, you'll find the Reverend covering up a murder. Use the bargaining option to blackmail him for the key to his chest upstairs, which holds the battery.
  • “Spare Batteries at the Dam” reveals batteries at the Dam in Casterfell Wood, northwest at coordinates 20.9 E, 90.9 N. The battery is in the electrical area on the right side of the dam. Enter the Control Room, pull the Substation Override lever until the right light turns red, and safely retrieve the battery.
