How to make a backpack
There are two main types of backpacks in Fallout 76: the standard small backpack and the standard large backpack. Of course, you can find variations of both, with unique modifications, scattered across Appalachia.
But to make and modify your backpack at CAMP, you first need to find the plans. And fortunately, they arrive relatively early.
On the top floor, you will find the Standard Small Backpack plans at Morgantown Airport inside of Overseer’s Cache. As for the Large Standard Backpack, you must complete the Kindness, Bravery, ObligationAnd Growth quests at Camp Lewis. It’s a reward for finishing The Order of the Tadpole.
