There are a lot of collectibles in Fallout 4. One of the most important items that people can pick up in the Wasteland are bobbleheads. Not only do these things look cool (offering an interesting collectible to those players that want to make sure they've picked up every little thing in the game), but they also increase a S.P.E.C.I.A.L skill or change something in the game for the better.
Everyone is always looking for the edge in the Wasteland, so finding these things is actually super helpful. Which specific bobbleheads are must-haves, though? That's where we come in.
10 The Strength Bobblehead
Even if someone isn't interested in dealing higher damage with melee weapons, every single build should be interested in the carry weight that comes with an extra bit of Strength!
There are endless items to pick up in the Wasteland, and not being able to grab something (due to not having the Strength to carry it) can be a real drain. Anybody that wants this extra bit of help should head straight to the lobby desk in Mass Fusion: the bobblehead is waiting on the metal wall sculpture above it.
9 The Small Guns Bobblehead
There are a lot of different weapons in the world of Fallout 4, so there's no chance that anyone is going to be able to utilize every single one of them throughout their time in the game. Still, this doesn't change the fact that a lot of people tend to use the smaller weapons for a period of time, as the game starts handing these sorts of weapon to us.
This bobblehead can be found at the Gunners Plaza. It's on the broadcast desk in the on-air room, which is on the ground floor of the building. We promise that it will be worth the trip for most players out there!
8 The Luck Bobblehead
Luck is a stat that can change all sorts of things in the game, both directly and indirectly. As such, no matter what sort of game somebody is playing, they want to make sure that their Luck is as high as physically possible.
Most importantly, Luck affects how quickly Critical Hit recharges, based on how many hits are needed to get it to full. To grab this incredibly useful bobblehead, players will have to travel to Spectacle Island and then look for a boat. Near the boat is a locker and a steamer trunk: the bobblehead can be found in the locker.
7 The Agility Bobblehead
Not every player will be sneaking their way through the game, but every single one of them will be using their AP throughout. This is exactly why everyone should be looking for this bobblehead as soon as they step outside of the vault!
This one is at the very end of a wooden platform that juts out of the wreck of the FMS Northern Star. Just travel to the wreck and look for the bow of the ship. From there, it should be easy for the player to grab this bobblehead and increase their AP for the rest of the game!
6 The Intelligence Bobblehead
Unsurprisingly, this bobblehead can be found in the Boston Public Library, resting on top of a computer bank that resides in the Mechanical room. While having very low Intelligence can result in a very funny time for the player, it certainly makes for a very difficult time as well.
People are going to want to keep their Intelligence high for an easier time, as it ensures that the player gains more and more points every single time they grab some experience. This will make a huge difference as time goes on!
5 The Barter Bobblehead
While this doesn't increase any sort of skill found within the game, players will be glad to know that it does make it a lot easier for them to get their hands on a better deal.
Despite the fact that all money has become pretty useless, vendors are going to expect a lot of caps for anything that's worth buying, so having all prices come down by 5% across the entire Wasteland is an amazing perk. The bobblehead is in a metal hut along the catwalk near the main cannery room at Longneck Lukowski's Cannery, just waiting to make things cheaper for you!
4 The Energy Weapons Bobblehead
Players who like to face their enemies head on will be changing to energy weapons as soon as it's viable. With that in mind, it's great to know that there's a bobblehead that increases the critical damage of all energy weapons by 25%, a massive boost.
We think that the developers knew most players would want this item, which is why they placed it on a table in Fort Hagen, not far from where the player will fight Kellogg. It's just casually nestled between two broken refrigerators.
3 The Lock Picking Bobblehead
When players meet Pickman in the Pickman Gallery, they can ensure that lock picking will be much less of a problem throughout the game by looking for this bobblehead (between two pillars in the last chamber).
Picking locks is something that players have to do in order to get their hands on some truly great items, as well as find their way into new places in the Wasteland. Anyone playing Fallout 4 should try and get their hands on this one immediately, as it opens up a whole world of possibilities to people that struggle to pick the locks found throughout the game.
2 The Perception Bobblehead
In the room where players meet Preston Garvey for the first time (inside the Museum Of Freedom), there is a metal desk with a bobblehead casually sitting on top. This one increases the Perception of the player.
Once again, no matter what build the player is going for, they should be happy for a chance to permanently increase their Perception, as it directly impacts how accurate a player is while taking on an enemy in V.A.T.S. Not only that, but picking locks and stealing becomes easier the higher this skill is as well.
1 The Medicine Bobblehead
Throughout the Wasteland of Fallout 4, there are a number of vaults that players can infiltrate in an attempt to nab some valuable items. One of the things that a player can find in Vault 81, for instance, is the Medicine bobblehead (tucked away in Curie's office).
This bobblehead will cause Stimpaks to heal 10% more damage. This is a huge boost, ensuring that the player will be able to fight their way through all kinds of grim situations in the Wasteland. Make sure you don't miss it.
