  • The location of Blackwater Mine marked on the map in Fallout 76.

The two most straightforward items to farm are Abraxo Cleaner and Turpentine, which will provide you with antiseptic when scrapped. Here are common locations to find Abraxo Cleaner and Turpentine in Fallout 76:

  • Blackwater Mine (Turpentine): There are seven Turpentine at this location. You’ll find two outside the mine and five inside the mine.
