Fallout 76 Order of the Tadpole | All exam answers

By Game Revolution

Fallout 76 has had a rough time since its release last year, but Bethesda is beginning to pick things up again with the game’s first season, Wild Appalachia. The new, free, season includes a lot of additional content for the game, including regular updates of new quests. The latest quest to be added is the Fallout 76 Order of the Tadpole mission line, which allows players to join the Pioneer Scouts of America.

In the new quest, Fallout 76 introduces players to the game’s latest faction. Players have to venture north, join the Scouts, and complete various missions in order to be worthy of the Pioneers. Unfortunately this can be quite difficult, as there’s some exams involved. Here are all the Order of the Tadpole exam answers, and what you have to do to get them.

How do I get the Fallout 76 Order of the Tadpole quest?

The first part of the Order of the Tadpole quest is getting it in the first place, of course. Despite it being the main focus of the update, the game doesn’t just automatically give it to you. You have to find a Pioneer Scouts poster and examine it to get the quest. These can be found at train stations on bulletin boards. Alternatively, you can get one for free in the Atomic Store, whereupon you can just craft it and pin it to your CAMP wall. After that, you’ll need to head to Camp Lewis, north of Morgantown and directly east of Grafton.

Talk to Scout Leader Jaggy and he’ll give you the first part of the Pioneer Scouts quest, Order of the Tadpole. Your goal is to “Demonstrate Pioneer Scout Values” to him. To do this you have to revive an ally, clean up Kiddie Corner Cabins (Misc daily quest: Operation Tidy), control pests at Dolly Sods (Misc daily quest: Stings and Things), and “Earn Scout World Challenge Badges”. To do this, head in the building next to Jaggy with the sign on it mentioning Exam Terminals. You’ll need to go on one of these terminals and complete three exams. Here are all the questions and appropriate answers.
