Baird_9965 Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 Sorry if this was already asked, and I missed it, but does anyone have tips on how to trigger raider attacks? I lowered my vault to 59 people just incase, but it rarely happens. I need 30 more and it's my last trophy. Thanks for any help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBubaknight Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 (edited) I'm on the same boat. I've lowered the population but there were no more attacks... Anyhow I've read the right population is between 17 and 30 to get raiders attacks. Edited June 14, 2018 by TheBubaknight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HuntingFever Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 Attacks on your vault, are 100% random in my experience so all you can do is play the waiting game . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBubaknight Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 Some things help like having a radio room or sending a lot of people outside, but I'm trying without getting anything, 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ddstgt79 Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 I had 28 Dweller and a radiostation. Got Raiders about every 20-25 Minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Floorkiller74 Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 On XB1 I can confirm that having the radio sending out signals will draw enemies and make attacks happen more often.. Once you level your base up you will start getting attacked by the zombie guys and deathclaws. Once they start, raider attacks decrease. It's easiest to get the raider attacks out of the way early, so you don't have to worry about them getting mixed in with other attacks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Tearraven Posted June 15, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted June 15, 2018 Basically, when you start... imagine a JRPG with action prompts on a timeline. You know... when a party takes turns. When you start, the RNG checks to see if an attack happens... if it does, the timeline starts. Dwellers is what controls this prompt. Radio Studio helps with this also. So when it starts it looks something like this: Raider ---- Raider ---- Raider ------ Raider ------- Raider But over time, as your Vault grows new creatures take up slots. So it will look more like this Raider ---- Ghouls ----- Deathclaw ---- Raider ---- Deathclaw 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gr4de_04 Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 @Tearraven You're just making something that everybody already understands way more complicated. No need to compare with JRPGs. That just confuses things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GastNDorf Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 You could always build a new vault on another slot if you're worried about frequencies. Shouldn't take too long building something half decent and just leave it be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No need to compare with JRPGs. That just confuses things. Judging by the amount of constant questions that keep popping up for this game, I don't think the majority of things in this game are something that "everybody already understands". If it doesn't work for you, then I apologise. But I used the same example on a Discord and people appreciated it. I'm sure you'll be fine.

Baird_9965 Posted June 15, 2018 Author Share Posted June 15, 2018 Since I've posted this, I got one raider attack.... I've read rumours as well, sending people out and having a pregnant woman in the vault, none have helped. Gonna try and lower it to at least 29 people, I'm at 32 right now. Thanks for the suggestions! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bpmotard Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 I've been reading some stuff on the internet and to increase chances of Raider Attacks try the following: Build more Radio Towers, not only does it attract Dwellers but also Raiders; Send Dwellers to the Wasteland, opening the vault door should provide opportunities for raids; Playing on Survival Mode, this mode is more challenging and has a bigger Raid ratio compared to the Normal Mode. Upgrade Vault Doors, the AI recognizes that a safer Vault should be attacked (Must be confirmed!) Having a good amount of Caps, having a lot of caps increases the probability of a Raider Attack. (Must be confirmed!). Hope this helps you guys, if any of you can confirm those last two it would be appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZexionPonty92 Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 Can anyone confirm that raiders attacks from different vaults count toward the trophy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goshyiyo Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 (edited) You have to reach 50 in one vault. It's not cumulative of all vaults. I got the platinum this morning. A MAJOR TIP: Objective multipliers on pets count towards this trophy. I had a x3 multiplier so I only needed 17 raider attacks. I believe only two pets have this. Dogmeat and some bird. Equip one of your dwellers with it in the room where the raiders are dying. I played this on normal and went with 29 dwellers and had two radio stations just because. I think you only need one but I was more confident and patient cause placebo. I also kept one lady pregnant, because maybe that increases odds too. I got attacks approximately every 15-30 minutes but it seems quite erratic. Good luck. Edited June 15, 2018 by Grindroid 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
