Bases are locations that can be created by players. They provide a safe space where you can store loot, and cannot be accessed by anyone else, unless you share it, or accidentally lead someone there.

Bases in FOnline have changed a lot from the old FOnline, so there might be old info around that no longer applies.

They are created with map items that can be found in many places like boss encounters, VT cases, dungeons, Infinity dungeon mobs and daily quests. Check Loot Drop for more details.

Bases can also be added to a faction, and automatically shared with faction members by rank. See Player-driven factions for more details.

NOTE: Some resources in bases can renew, but not all. Base Brahmin do not produce more poop, and if you bring an NPC companion to the base, they will usually kill all the Brahmin there, and the Brahmin will not return. Trees may yield wood once, but they do not regrow. Flint and Broc flowers do not regrow. However, as of Season 2, Fiber Stalks generate more Fiber, and Butcher Tables yield more Meat Slices over time. No Barrels yield any Junk, and Old Computers do not yield Electronic Parts.

Creating a base

There are 2 different kinds of bases you can buy, DIY, which gives you a map item to use in an encounter, like a tent. The other is premade bases that are bought from NPC's and generated nearby on the map.

Need to confirm if this is still true It is recommended that each player has their own faction, so that they can easily and conveniently add their additional characters to all of their bases at once. To do this, it is best to have a separate character who will be the leader of that faction, and the other characters will be added as Friends, so that they can see their own bases while also being members of the other faction.

DIY Bases

A Do-It-Yourself base can be bought from a construction manager for T1 10k, T2 30k, T3 50k local currency, or found from sources in the Loot Drop table. You can choose where it should be placed on the map, but requires players to deliver materials to the location before it can be completed. You can buy it in three cities: NCR, VC or SF.

Building your base

Take the item and go to where you want the base on the world map. Enter an encounter and use the base map. This will create a your base (T1) or a construction area (T2+). The new construction site will have a control terminal, and a progress billboard. You will need to gather a certain amount of resources for base construction. You can drop the items anywhere on the construction site to accomplish this. Check the progress billboard to see what is needed:

After gathering all of the required materials, you can talk to the construction worker again, and he will ask you about naming the base. The base's name is not bound in any way to a faction name.

Note: It is recommended to avoid bringing any items to the construction site, other than the necessary resources. They will be lost when the base finished the build process

Premade Bases

Any character of any level who is not already in a faction can start one (Need to confirm a faction is needed for these bases). This can be done by buying your first base. If you are already part of a faction (such as Vault City, BoS, Enclave, Mordinos, another player's faction, etc.), you will not be able to buy a base. You must first leave your previous faction before you can start or join another faction's base. Once a character starts a faction, they automatically become its leader. Only the faction leader can buy additional bases for that faction. However, each player can build their own base if they have a map bought by another character or looted.

The Cave Base

The Cave base

Cost: 33k caps
DIY Option: No
Towns: Klamath, Redding, Junktown
0 parking spots

The Cave, really easy to defend but a bit small. It is divided into two parts: the cliff side with a cave entrance on an empty desert map, and inside of the cave itself. It contains the usual crafting tools (Workbench, still), a brahmin pen and only 3 lockers. It's not a cost effective base since Depot has more containers and is sold at the same price, but the cave does has one advantage: it's very easy to defend because you just have to put mercs or slaves in front of the tiny cave entrance. The cave is the only base you can purchase from all three of the base sellers. Because of this, the Cave is one of the most varied bases around as it can be purchased almost anywhere for a measly 33k caps.

The Depot Base

The Depot base

Cost: 30k caps for pre-built Depot
DIY Option: Yes
Towns: Klamath

Depot is a small outpost, with 3 lockers, 2 desks (one looks like a workbench), 2 shelves, and 2 table. 9 containers total when you consider it also has a workbench with the standard toolboard for small storage above it and a still. There's also a brahmin pen containing one brahmin. On the map, you can find wood and flint (does not replenish). It's a good and cheap base, and the spawn is straight below the door and chairs outside. Guards can be placed to the far right of the spawn, near the trees. They will have the small spawn area directly in their sight. Base locations seem to typically be somewhere to the West of Klamath. The Depot is sold in Klamath, and is the same price as the Cave, yet offers considerably more in terms of storage space. Depot can be purchased from the base seller Smiley in Klamath. He is located in the bar and hotel at the Main entrance.

The Scrapheap Base

The Scrapheap base

Cost: 70k caps for pre-built Scrapheap
DIY Option: Yes
Towns: Redding

Scrapheap is a popular base costing 70 000 caps. It is larger than Depot or Cave. Its location is often between Redding and Broken Hills. It contains 5 lockers, a workbench, a still and a brahmin pen. The Scrapheap offers a low amount of resources when compared to other bases, with the Cave being on similar grounds yet having a bigger brahmin pen and more brahmin than both Depot and Cave. Scrapheap is Redding's specialty base. It is sold from the Redding base seller who is located in the Malamute Saloon, which is above the Doctors building.

The Outpost Base

The Outpost base

Cost: 130k caps for pre-built Outpost
DIY Option: Yes
Towns: Junktown

A pre-built outpost is the most expensive base, second only to the bunker. It is very easy to defend because it is surrounded by walls, and has three buildings plus two tents, and is probably the most popular base amongst most players. Its location on the world map will often be between NCR and Junktown. It has 10 containers, a workbench, a still, a water pipe, a well, fibers plants, and a larger brahmin pen with more brahmins than other bases. New characters can shovel more poo in peace. It's a large map with plenty of space on the ground to lay out rows of important items. The Outpost base is the speciality base sold from the Junktown base seller, who is located in the very first building after entering Junktown via the south gate.

Trapper Camp Base

The Trapper Camp base

Cost: 50k caps for pre-built Trapper Camp
DIY Option: Yes
Towns: Klamath
Car parking slots: 10

Gas Station Camp Base

The Gas Station Camp base

Cost: 50k caps for pre-built Gas Station Camp
DIY Option: No
Towns: Redding

Old Bunker Base

The Old Bunker base, outside

The Old Bunker base, inside

Cost: 350k caps, base available via Abandoned Bunker quest
DIY Option: No
Towns: Unknown, base available via Abandoned Bunker quest

The bunker is by far the most expensive base. While the outside part of the map is very difficult to defend, an enemy will have a very difficult time getting to the inside of a well-guarded bunker. It has fifteen lockers, a crate near its still, two computers that contain electronic parts, four private rooms in the back with showers, a waterpipe, a broken Mr Handy robot, a broken elevator, and wall safes that are often overlooked. The room with four lockers is locked with a yellow pass key, making it safer to store your valuables in the event of a raid, for a total of 23 storage containers plus a workbench. It houses a large conference room with a big-screen video display toward the back for those important meetings. Besides its massive amount of storage space, the mouth of the bunker opens into a small mine with iron ore and minerals, making this by far the best base money can buy. Oddly enough, the base has no brahmin pen.

Managing a base

Bases can be shared, can build storage items, decoration items, as well as Patreon benefits like teleporters.
