Once the main story is over and you’ve reached the endgame of Fallout 76, you’ll need to find new ways to spend your time in Appalachia. Farming gold bars is one such activity, and it’s easily one of the most common methods of passing a few extra hours in the post-apocalypse. It’s a valuable end-game currency that unlocks crafting and building plans, like various Gauss weapons and CAMP items!

But to spend your gold, you need to track down the right merchants, the most common being Minerva. It sells the high-end items that endgame players want most, including the deadly Gauss Shotgun.
Here’s where to find Minerva in Fallout 76 this week!
Where to find Minerva
You can currently find Minerva sitting outside the main entrance of The Whitespring. She erected a tent on the right side of the front steps leading up.
You’ll want to move fast, though. Minerva stays in Appalachia for only a short period—a week—and then moves on to a new location. She spends just three weeks a month visiting key points of interest around the map. If you miss her, you’ll have to wait a week until her next rotation.
She routinely rotates between The Whitespring, Foundation, Crater, and Fort Atlas.

Where to find Minerva next week
After her short stay at The Whitespring Resort, Minerva will be gone by August 6. She will then set up camp outside the Foundation, right across from the bridge leading to the main entrance.
Its shares will also change. It’s worth checking out what rare plans he’s selling each visit!
Before each visit, participate in public events and daily quests for either Settlers or Raiders. They both reward treasure notes, which you can turn in at gold presses for gold bars. It’s the only currency that matters at the end of the world!
