Wasteland 3 is an RPG full of strange weapons and items; however, they all fit into Wasteland's style. One of the weirdest things you can encounter in Wasteland 3 is the Golden Toaster, and how you use it may surprise you.
Unfortunately, you can't simply find the Golden Toaster; you need to complete a few steps to get it. Although the steps you need to take to acquire the Golden Toaster are long, it's not a particularly difficult process if you know what to do. Below you can find out how to get the Golden Toaster and how it can aid you on your post-apocalyptic adventure.
What Is The Golden Toaster?
The Golden Toaster or "Courageous" is an animal companion that you can create in Wasteland 3. Although the Golden Toaster isn't an actual animal, the game classifies it in the same way as an animal follower.
The Golden Toaster can aid you in combat by shooting fire at enemies, which makes it more unique than most of the other animal companions in Wasteland 3.
How To Get The Golden Toaster
You need to collect parts to get the Golden Toaster; however, before you start searching for these items, you should level up the Toaster Repair skill on one of your characters. You can practice using this skill on toasters throughout the Colorado Wasteland.
Reaching at least level seven or eight in the Toaster Repair skill is best if you want to collect the Golden Toaster.
Below you can find a list of where to find each item necessary to get the Golden Toaster.
