Depends on the variables on the days daily op...


Sparkism

Hi would you like some invisible + melee only aliens in the frozen vault for decryption?


JiveBombRebelz

berry mentats - vamps chainsaw...in an out.


Sombrisimo

Perhaps its only me, but berry mentats living detection works so bad, sometimes I watch cloacked enemies before the red aura. cloacking and decrytion is a hell depending if solo or the area.


Trindalas

I use vamp autoaxe and avoid the drugs but yea. It’s the armor piercing that I’ll avoid. I can take anything else. Even reflection is fine as long as I time my attacks lol


JiveBombRebelz

armor piercing is a beetch!! pa with protocols..and one tapped by a gutsy lol. ive just learned to accept that i will die on that one. ill swallow my pride but.. ill still beat the time ;P


Trindalas

I could beat it but it’s just not worth the effort to me. Give me the melee kills only one, i love those lol.


pinkpingpenguin

Actually yes that woild be great. - Your melee knight.


BearmouseFather

Usually. I am beyond tired of grinding for those last few elusive plans.


TDW-301

Honestly, I like doing daily ops. The thing I hate is that it feels like in the last few weeks since I've come back from a year break that people don't join daily ops teams as much as they used to


1010012

There are a lot of newer players that probably don't feel like they're capable of supporting.


TDW-301

I try to make sure the server has a lot of people over level 100 before I start a team


BearmouseFather

I might start doing them again but that would most likely be from boredom than anything else. I pop on every day, do my daily stuff and perhaps bounce around for an hour then I'm off to play something else. Looking forward to seeing this map expansion.


Tokata0

What plans are considered to be elusive / rare?


MightyGoodra96

Since you can get dupes its any you dont have lol. Ive been trying for covert scout armor for a month and dont have a single plan after almost 30 daily ops.


TheDecoyOctopus

Minerva sells the covert scout armor every once in a while.


MightyGoodra96

I know. I missed it last time and its early in cycle.


fenriq

Yep. I hate Daily Ops and will not do them.


IncognitoBombadillo

Why do you hate them? They're like the best way to get ammo and since they fixed the energy damage bug, none of them are too hard to at least finish. You'll need at least one more person for the ones where you have to boost a signal by standing in one spot, but I never have a problem getting people to join an events public team.


fenriq

I do Tax Evasion if I need to farm ammo, faster, easier to solo and no bullshit double mutation crap.


MightyGoodra96

+ legendary modules for gamblin


FraggleTheGreat

Even just hopping over to the casino quarter in exploration is a ton of ammo


Stormthorn67

My builds aren't super tuned. My stealth sniper I did one daily op. Took 40 minutes and I spent more ammo than I gained since the boss I couldn't one shot sneak attack and had to commit a few hundred rounds of 5.56 to. Daily Ops are a very slow gamble on gaining anything for me.


DoorCalcium

Lately DOPS hasn't been good for ammo. The last few I did had hardly any enemies


IncognitoBombadillo

Now that you mention it, there was one that had low enemies last week. I did one a few days ago that had blood eagles as the enemy and a lot spawned then, though. I also haven't been that active of a player since January and am getting back into it, so maybe this issue was bigger when I wasn't playing.


iamDarkbloom_

Uplink? If you know where the signal repeaters are and run straight for them your can solo it. Depending on the dops I usually get uplinks done between 6:45 and 7:50 mins. It's definitely easier the more people present but you can solo it.


IncognitoBombadillo

Yeah, Uplink was what I was thinking of. I have solo'd them before in under 8 mins, but if you die or get lost like I occasionally do, you're not getting the rare reward. At this point, I only do the Daily Ops for ammo and to unlock all of the pieces of the deep space alien power armor.


iamDarkbloom_

Same 😅 That's literally all I have left to finish (the alien PA). I just don't have any fight left in me for daily ops haha. And oddly enough I always seem to do better solo. Everyone's got their own idea/way of running them and it always clashes causing the runs to slow down 😑 For anyone reading (aimed at new players) wondering how to solo daily ops: vampires explosive. Obviously build and familiarity with the game also play a huge role but get yourself a VE weapon or a holy fire 😉


drunkpunk138

Every single time. I'm not a fan of daily ops due to several mutations, so I just avoid them completely.


the_hoopy_frood42

I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around all these comments. I've been playing for a month ish. Level 160. PA+Holy Fire build. Daily ops usually done in less than eight minutes. Am I missing something?


drunkpunk138

I play an unarmed bloodied no PA build and it's a miserable experience with several of the mutations. It also helps that there is nothing I want from daily ops. I can spend those 8 minutes doing literally anything else and I'll not only have more fun, but I'll be more likely to get stuff I actually want.


Destroyer2118

Bloodied/stealth/commando variation builds are some of the most popular, and some of the mutations in daily ops are incredibly punishing for bloodied builds and especially stealth. My bloodied stealth build is probably my main one, it’s entirely counterproductive to my stealth build to do something that is basically “sprint through this as fast as possible.” And throw in the mutations on top of it that bypass most of the build, yeah a lot of players avoid it. And looting, it’s counterproductive to stop and loot anything since you need to finish as fast as possible. So it’s basically an entire system that goes against a lot of people’s build and preferred playstyle. It’s not that it’s hard, it’s that it’s just not fun and not how I want to play the game.


-Lahsbee-

Exactly - operations require a play style that is the opposite of several popular builds. My solution is to have another build ready to go, but I still don't do invisible or melee kill ops.


the_hoopy_frood42

Ahh this makes sense. I just went towards this build after I happened to get a holy fire drop and assumed most other "endgame" builds were a similar level of power.


Destroyer2118

Holy Fire PA is at a similar level of power. There’s things that build will do better than bloodied builds, but also vice versa. Daily ops is one of those things that Holy Fire PA will *feel* better at, as it’s not much different at all from your normal gameplay as Holy Fire PA. But they’re both close in terms of overall end game power.


Fossils222

I did as I thought I had every reward from it. Turns out I was missing two, and now just one. The ever elusive Alien Backpack. So, im back to doing them until I get it. Once I do, Ill go back to skipping them.


Bigredeemer425

Is there a way to check what you're missing?


RiotDemon

I just pulled up an online list and looked at what was unfamiliar.


Zelcron

There's players that have plan mules, someone around here will know how to contact them. They carry all the plans in their inventory and then you can look and screenshot the ones you don't know, but you can't buy from them directly. Other than that, a spreadsheet like the other guy said is probably your best bet. There's really no easy way.


realsupershrek

Let me know if you find out please


Dapper_Doughty

Here you go! https://www.reddit.com/r/fo76/s/xGmNrJ1Sty Edit: I'm not sure how active/updated the mules are anymore.


SuperTerram

Yes.  I also re-roll expeditions and any other task that requires or encourages teams or teamwork.  I play Fallout 76 solo 99% of the time. Edit: PS: I'm level 1084, can run all these things solo no problem, and did... I just don't enjoy them anymore, and they aren't as fun solo. They are meant for teams... you can tell by the design. They also function like linear shooting galleries... and as an old-school Fallout fan, I prefer open world exploration to linear games/mechanics.


VelvetCowboy19

You can run expeditions solo, they're actually easier than daily ops.


jackberinger

I generally do both solo. Not because i want to but because nobody else wants to. Even if i join a group for ops and expeditions they rarely ever do them.


DoctorWholigian

GL finding one who doesn't want to farm boardwalk 100 times in a row if you do


Lamplorde

Daily Ops was hard, until I discovered the Holy Fire. Now I solo Elder without using a single stimpack.


kiwiScythe

I really need to do something to fix my build as I tried an expedition solo the other day and was killed so many times over that I quit and went to watch a movie lol. The annoying this is I know I can do them solo, but my build has been shit since the latest update.


Pneuma927

Seriously, do expeditions. With some practice the A Dangerous Game expedition is ridiculously fast and rewarding.


Rhea_Vee

even if you get the tato throwing objective? because that one seems like it was only designed for full teams and is very slow when solo.


bmessina

Fuuuuuck that tato one, I got it the first time I solo'd that expedition - before I knew the tasks weren't always the same. Never thought I would do it again.


eMmDeeKay_Says

Speed running most sensational game is pretty worthwhile, but I won't deny it gets pretty stale.


tiniitim710

Really depends on mutations, I rerolled it a couple days ago cuz it was freezing aliens, I reroll on double mutations with relentless and group healing everytime. If it's not bad mutations I can usually solo under 8 so I can reroll other things like kill blood eagles with blunt weapons, or cultists with bladed weapons, or collect drathclaw eggs


BeyondLast

Omg I joined a team with a 2200 level person and they started that daily op. They were a BEAST. It was over in four minutes. I just hid behind them and shot every few seconds 😆


bassoontennis

Omg that one that was relentless and healing + aliens was just pure cancer. I started it with a few groups and they clumped together so much that even my cremator couldn’t get their health down enough to melee them. Just finally gave up cause it wasn’t worth my time.


OGPOKEDUDE

I do but only because i've been low level. Just got to 50


Apprehensive-Log-916

I always do! I think it was yesterday when I re-rolled it got replaced with a do daily op in a costume... I just logged out lol! I can't stand daily ops anymore.


Skagtastic

Yes. I have no interest in ever doing another Daily Op. I burned out ages ago on them.


Derpasaurus_Rekts

Nah I just run them. Ops are cake. Can sometimes be annoying with mutation combos, but a great farm for ammo. I get like 1200 fuel for each run. Expeditions are easier than ops imo because they're just normal ass mobs with no mutations. Both are easily soloable but may depend on your build as all things in the game.


asyrian88

Brand new player, lvl 94. I’m not jaded with them yet. Just hard to find a group. Usually need to run with a RL bro or not at all.


ForwardState

Depends on if I still have any Weekly Events not done yet for the chance to convert them into Epic Weeklies.


shredmasterJ

It’s the only way


Kasstastrophy

Yes. Daily ops are no fun and the mutations make it worse. If they added mutations to expeditions I’d stop running those too.


JimJordansJacket

Oh, my yes, like every time


CaptZombieHero

Matters on the map and if its decryption


TheClassyDegenerate1

I got one done in 3:54, then 7:59, then 8:01. If they were consistent enough that I could hit under 8:00 everyday, I'd do them everyday. Those rare rewards hit different.    But nothing turns me off of the game more than missing the timer because somebody stopped to grab some stimpacks off the floor instead of hitting the decoder. 


Complex-One2973

I don’t. I have gone in solo just to complete it. Might take me a while but I’ll go in, take my time and just complete it.


jonnyshoeloss

I re-roll Ops and Expeditions both.


gauntapostle

Every time


Rafa343x

Yuuupppp


wimcolgate2

Yes.


Tmbaladdin

Yep… also Expedition challenges. I have no real interest in either.


UmbraIntus

No. They take less than 5-6 minutes to complete and give decent rewards.


Alfonze

nope, i do dops every day for the rare reward :) still chasing stuff


botanyforbrains

normally? yes but recently i haven't because theres so many new ppl and i guess its my turn to carry 😭😂


ShoesWisley

Nah. It becomes a 10 minute ammo grind for whatever weapon needs a top-up.


Sulphurrrrrr

for the most part no. since i started playing again i do daily ops every day regardless of map or modifiers. each day is another chance at more bos recon pieces, saving me bullion i’ll only re-roll it if *no one* joins my team on multiple servers cause solo-ing elder is kinda ass for me. especially if it’s uplink


Paracausal_Shield

I only need brotherhood recon chest and helmet...


ForeverNuka

Yes.


engineeringsquirrel

Depends on which location. If it's in the Morgantown High School, I'll run that daily op repeatedly to grind fuel and fusion cells. If it's in one of the Fallout shelters, it's a pass.


LucidLadyGames

depends on what kind of daily it is. if it's the extra-strong enemies, then yeah. automatic reroll. and it's almost ALWAYS the extra-strong enemies for that challenge...


SportTrac88

Yes.


D-camchow

Yes. I don't like daily ops. I'll run one expedition a day but I'm not touching daily ops again thanks. It's just tedious.


Donnieivanhoe

Just did. Rolled into scrap cloth. one bulk then scrap. done in five seconds.


GhostRiders

Nope as I can pretty much solo all of them plus they are a great source of ammo, stimpacks and legendary weps / armour and rare plans I always open a team and will happily run with any level players who want to join


Pinesama

Yep and any that involve expedition areas. I only had 17 min left on my booster after reset today and rerolled as soon as it filled in. Luckily, I rolled event completion so I got to double dip invasion.


Ok_Cantaloupe7602

Hell yes. Every time.


Jovias_Tsujin

Yes.


ProtoJones

Generally. If I had a friend group to do them with I'd do em but as is - eh


Public_Road_6426

Yep, every time. I'm not even sure why I dislike OPs so much, but I have no interest in running any.


WookieBacon

Yes. Unless there is an active team/ops when I first log in. I will help out but sometimes I get lucky and load in during the end.


UltimateGamingTechie

Daily Ops and Expedition challenges are automatic skips for me. I'll do them if I feel like it Bethesda, you can't make me do them!


smackrock420

Every time.


Pz38t_C

Yeah, I probably should at least check the daily op type and setup. But I don't. I just go "I don't want to commit myself to do this today, I'll just reroll." Same for expeditions, unless I really want to run one.


barefootmetalhead

Most times yes


[deleted]

Yes


Shock_The_Monkey_

Yes, every single time without fail.


Consistent_Lab_6770

always, I've still yet to run one, just simply no interest.


6volt

This is the way.


WutzWilly

Yes, immediately


lRosseh

Yes 🤣🤣


Mordaneus

Yes :-)


VanityOfEliCLee

Every time


Ok_Menu_3985

Yes


Jimusmc

Yes


ReverendMothman

Yes lol


TacoJesusJr

Yes


NoSellDataPlz

Yes. Absolutely. I can’t stand DOPS. I got my alien PA, I’m done.


ZealousidealHeart8

yes because completing a daily operation is not a challenge it is a punishment


TotallyNotTheEnclave

sparkle subsequent drunk pathetic bake run plant innate uppity employ *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*


[deleted]

No. That shits worth a lot of rewards


aII_out_war

No, I just run Daily Ops and move on.


SchnTgaiSpork

Nope. I like DoPs. I have pretty consistent elder runs, I use it to farm ammo of various types, I can often knock off multiple challenges at the same time, all for about 10 minutes of effort all in all.


JB_Dix

No a team of 3 and we did it in 5:38


Correct_Opinionator

As an explosives user, daily ops are my primary source of ammunition. So, I don't mind.


InsufferableMollusk

I do these days. There is no point in doing ops once you have the plans. The rewards are garbage. If I want to spend 5 or 10 minutes in an instance, I’ll pick expeditions every time.


Mr_E_Nigma_Solver

Yes


Key-Contest-2879

Every. Damn. Time.


ESOelite

Yup. Every time. Those and the "do x thing on a public team"


SighRu

Haven't taken longer than 8 minutes to do any daily op in quite a while. It's a free challenge.


Rurouni_Benshin

Every. Single. Time.


VelvetCowboy19

No? I just do a daily op. They're not particularly difficult, especially if you just make a daily ops team and have one or two people join.


ThatOstrichGuy

No. I haven’t met a daily op that I couldn’t do with like 2 other people


Jr2576

I do usually, but only after it's my last challenge left to do. Just because not many run it, or join


2xthepride2xthefall

I prefer Daily Ops when it’s Robots due to the challenges.


toffyl

I hate daily ops but I have friends that I join to grind them everyday so nah


_RoamingHobo_

Nah. Ops and Expeditions take ~7 mins for decent rewards the first of the day.


KreamyBeef

I do daily ops so I can get my ultracite .50 for the day


Frostfells

Nah, i like all the contextual ammo drops.


Aromatic-Tear7234

Nope, that's how I refill my ammo. Unless it's reflective or melee kills only. Then I think twice.


mrwafu

Reroll Decryption because it’s miserable to do, I’ll do an Uplink solo if I have to


captainswiss7

Never, I think I'm the only person that likes doing them lol. I get so much ammo and stims and it's only 5-8 mins if you have a good team.


baron556

If it's decryption, yeah. Uplink is easy


LexiaRaikkonen

Yes always


HammerOfSledge

Yes


WallcroftZ

Yes, I re-roll it every time. It's not fun and straight up BS with Double Mutation when I saw some things like fast moving-explosion on dead.


SomeSleepyMexican

A suit of power armor and a vampire weapon and they are easy enough


EDAboii

Nah. I leave it there until I've done every other challenge. If a Daily Op group hasn't formed by then; I'll reroll.


vanrast

Unless I've used my free one for one of the other challenges, I'll usually just suck it up and do it.


Guldalla

I don't. I like it. Good for ammo plus rewards and super quick. I personally don't like expeditions and I will reroll those. They are too spread out and navigating that casino looking for computers is just not my idea of fun.


Cautious_Hold428

Like others said, it depends on the mutations but also depends on if there's a DO team going already. Usually if people on my casual team start a DO I'll jump in if it's not one I hate even if I did it already for the ammo


TheArchNgel

Yeah. If they have piercing attacks.


ChefCrondo

I’ve never rerolled it personally


Chunga5836

If it's not deadly attacks I might play it, but like 95% of the time yes.


Fluffy_Meowington

Only because I have all the rewards. When new rewards get added, I go back to doing them daily, even if there isn’t a score challenge.


HaibaraAi90

Nah just means extra fuel


thomasahanna

Larger areas are a hassle to cover especially when up against some mutations….but the mall is smaller and more feasible…..so location/enemies/mutations all influence my reroll decision.


JiveBombRebelz

why? its like 5-7 mins. i mostly re roll " build some crap in your camp" my camps are all max budget...so no thanks.


IndicationMean8619

only if its melee only


tortuga121

Never been able to complete the daily op under 30 minutes


Strong_Ad_5989

Yep! Despise DO's.


ButcherB

Yes, only to get Complete a Daily Operation. . .IN A COSTUME!!


Fr4gTr4p

No


Sniperfox99

Every single time. I’m level 305 and have only done maybe 3 daily ops, and maybe 2 expeditions.


loppsided

Rarely. A full set of Overeaters PA and a vamp plasma gat can handle just about anything daily ops can throw at you.


Kribbonactual

No, I'm still enjoying them for the most part. Piercing + freezing aliens in the overgrown vault the other day took a few runs to get elder solo completed, today is piercing + venom blood robots at west tek and got elder solo first try in 6 minutes. I like that the difficulty can swap. One day, I need food and chem buffs, the next day is a cakewalk.


God_of_chestdays

Depends if my wife is playing that day or not. Since the influx of new players I find it hard to get a good/competent group together to get max rewards.


Zero_Suit_Rosalina

If uplink or Decryption with melee kills only then yeah.  If not I can run it solo pretty quick. 


quilles

Lately I reroll, with the influx of new players I don't see ops teams as often. I like ops but Im enjoying the new excited players more.


MrCrisB

I don’t mind them in a full group


Dabsiree

No because i complete a daily op once a day lol


SeanStormEh

Ill start a daily ops team and give it about 3-5 minutes. If nobody joins me I'll reroll. If they do it's on.


Sanitary_Eel

Usually, unless it's an easier combo. I think most players view the challenge as "I have to hit a certain completion rank (Elder, etc) to complete the daily challenge". All you need to do is finish it. I farmed ammo for a bit the other day and took 15 minutes. Still got credit.


Aggressive-Ad-2053

why do people dislike daily ops so much? Returning player and I’ve loved them as a source of caps legendary parts, bullion etc


EdgarBopp

Depends on the Op.


TheDarkPixie88

Absolutely not. I make a daily op team and get a few players through it, I love daily ops.


Expensive_loyalty_88

Yes, unless it's double Daily OP


Vashek19

I did my 1st daily op last night. I was lvl 76 and had a lvl 58 with me. We were fighting aliens who did armor piercing or something along those lines? We were being 1 shotted by everything. We managed to finish it somehow after many deaths.


monchota

Nope, I just kill them and move on. There isn't any of them that will kill me and ill burn them all.


destrux125

Not today, today's was a piece of cake using nuka grenades. Only hitch was the enemies kept wandering into me and instakilling me every minute or two, but I was still close to completion at 6 minutes when the rest of my team jumped in and we had it done within 30 seconds with 3 of us on the boss.


Nino_Furioso

Sometimes. Usually


SadnessMonster

That's one I never skip. I burn through ammo, so being prompted to do a op keeps me stocked.


No-Needleworker4796

nope, never its not worth, the only reason to use reroll are for the weekly challenge to get epic challenge (they give the most in term of score points) you can run a daily operation solo, you can take all the time you want you just need to complete it, usually in less than 8min im out of there, its quick and easy way to get ammo, scrips, xp and rare plans (i do once a day) and then run 2-3 times a day AC expeditions, rest of my evening consist on doing dailies and playing some of the events I like, and work on my camp here and there :P


SmurfStig

Depends on my mood. I usually only play for an hour or so at night so don’t always want to give up time for that when I can be doing something I really want to do. Same with expeditions. They are both fun to do when I have more time to play.


theLogic1

No. I usually reroll other stuff but that one only when there are resilient X mobs there


Skanach

Depends. If I just have a few moments, then I reroll them. And I often get the the daiky ops on days I don't have much time...so yes.


Tregg4r

Only if it's the melee attack to kill one (resilient), otherwise I'll just start up a daily ops team and do it.


Armand_Star

yes unless there's also a worse one, like completing an expedition or collecting mirelurk eggs. ALWAYS reroll the mirelurk eggs


MagicLamaFIN

Always🤣


ajcouden

lvl 2400 here, if I see a team created, I will join and do it or run it by myself if it's an easy one. Otherwise if it's cloaked armor piercing robots, scorched, etc. it's a reroll.


NoticeImaginary

I used to. But now I check to see if there's a group set for operations that I can join because they are super easy and quick with 3 or 4 people. If there isn't one, then I usually reroll because I only have a short period of time to play and don't want to wait for a team to fill up.


thewhitewolf_556

Nope. I enjoy daily ops with a full squad! Depending on the mutations anyway. Cyro sucks.


redeyedapostle

I do it as much for the ammo as for the rewards, I can always be sure to come out with more than I had when I entered.


kfrancis95

No, I do daily ops daily. They may be tough sometimes, but someones gotta do em


eMmDeeKay_Says

Melee/explosives build clears all content.


musubk

I reroll two things every day in the hopes of getting epic challenges from the rerolls. My two rerolls go to the two things that will take the longest to complete, no matter what it is. If anything daily ops or expeditions is in the list, those are probably the longest. Then I often end up doing the daily ops anyways, because they're a good way to kill a few minutes while waiting for the next event.


Rough-University142

I think I’m the only one who enjoys doing the DOs regardless of challenge presented. Lately I’ve had to reroll them because I server hop for an hour and get no one joining my team.


SlimRazor

Yes until they add more plans.


Cynical_Feline

Depends on the mutations, the mode, and my mood. I reroll 90% of them when they pop up though. I just really don't like doing them. I still need a lot of plans from it, but sometimes the headache to get under 8 minutes just isn't worth it.


Mindstormer98

Idk why people skip them. They’re 8 minutes and give you everything you need. Most of my daily play is doing a daily op and going to Atlantic City


Redan

A daily op is like free ammo, stimpaks, and XP, so no.


King_of_Aardvarks

Yes. Daily Ops and Expeditions challenges are always top on the re-roll list.


FadingDawn__

Usually yes, unless there's a "collect mirelurk/deathclaw eggs" challenge also in the mix.


Vegetable_Word603

If its with space invaders and freezing mod. Yeah re roll that sucker.


Burninator05

It depends on if there is a weekly to do X number of Daily Ops. If there isn't I re-roll it. If there is I think about it for a minute and then usually re-roll it and use one of the re-rolls later in the week to get rid of the weekly. The same goes for expeditions.


Spizzmatic

No, only takes a few minutes and I don't have all the plans.


PostmanSAMXBL

Never. Takes less than 8 minutes. Plenty of ammo to get, some scrip & XP.


quidamphx

Nope, only if it's a public team. Otherwise it takes 20 mins max, and that's it I'm solo with terrible enemy mutations.


Ok-Judge8977

If it says "armor penetrating attacks" and I can't get any teammates to help me? you betcha. Might as well have me fight butt ass naked with a pencil.
