In *Atomfall*, Atomic Batteries are pivotal not just for advancing through the storyline but also for gaining an edge in bartering. Here’s a comprehensive guide on how to secure these valuable items in *Atomfall*.
How to Find Atomic Batteries With Leads in Atomfall
To progress the main narrative in *Atomfall*, you'll need to find and deposit Atomic Batteries within The Interchange. The game provides Leads to assist in locating these batteries. Here's where you can find them:
- “A Fruitful Trade”: This Lead suggests that the Reverend obtained an Atomic Battery from a trader named Molly, located west of Wyndham Village. Molly has another battery and is particularly interested in trading for Molotov Cocktails.
- “Batteries and All”: Found in the sewer, this Lead indicates that druids might possess Atomic Batteries in their castle within Casterfell Woods, southwest of the area. Navigate through the camp to a door flanked by blue fire torches and enter the Castle Ruins. The battery is near the High Priestess overlooking a valley.
- “Battery Request at the Skethermoor Depot”: This Lead points to a battery at the Skethermoor Vehicle Depot, southeast of Skethermoor at coordinates 43.4 E, 74.6 N. Look for a blue hatch near two greenhouses on a hill. Enter, clear out any Outlaws, and use a key found in a room with a red light to access the battery. Remember to take Radiation Resistance to survive the area.
- “Molly Sold a Battery to the Vicar”: This Lead is relevant if you haven't already obtained the Reverend’s Atomic Battery. It reveals that Molly sold another battery to the Vicar at St. Katherine’s Church in Wyndham Village.
- “Revered Got His Hands on a Battery”: A note from Alf about the Reverend’s battery at St. Katherine’s Church. Upon entering, you'll find the Reverend covering up a murder. By choosing to stay silent, you can blackmail him for the key to his chest, which contains the battery.
- “Spare Batteries at the Dam”: This Lead directs you to the Dam in Casterfell Woods at coordinates 20.9 E, 90.9 N. The battery is in the electrical area on the right side. Access the Control Room, pull the Substation Override lever until the right light turns red to safely retrieve the battery.

To extract these, target flamethrower-wielding robots from a distance using a rifle. Shoot the red barrels to overheat and stun the robot, then approach to remove the Atomic Battery from its back.
