(→‎Notes: I can absolutely confirm .44 is affected by the perk, finding significantly higher amounts of the ammo compared to my no-Scounger run.)

Scrounger is a Fallout, Fallout 2, Fallout 3, Fallout: New Vegas and Fallout 4 perk.

Fallout and Fallout 2

You can find more ammunition than the normal post-apocalyptic survivor. This perk will double the amount of ammunition found in random encounters.

Fallout 3

You will find considerably more ammunition in containers than you normally would.

Notes

  • This perk will not affect killed enemies or containers in locations that were visited prior to taking the perk, as these containers are filled when first encountered.
  • In most cases, this perk will double the maximum amount of randomly generated ammunition available in newly encountered containers. Each new ammo item has the same 75% chance of spawning as the original ammo leveled lists.

Fallout: New Vegas

It is functionally identical to the Fallout 3 version of the perk, however with options of recycling ammunition its usefulness could be debated when applied to certain characters.

Notes

  • This perk will not affect killed enemy corpses or containers in locations that were visited prior to taking the perk, as these containers are filled when first encountered.
  • In most cases, this perk will double the maximum amount of randomly generated ammunition available in newly encountered containers. Each new ammo item has the same 75% chance of spawning as the original ammo leveled lists.

Fallout 4

You find more ammunition in containers.— Rank 1 description
Rank Requirements Description Base ID
1 LCK 2 You find more ammunition in containers. 0004A0B0
2 LCK 2, LVL 7 You find even more ammunition in containers. 001ACF9A
3 LCK 2, LVL 24 You find even more ammunition in containers. 001ACF9B
4 LCK 2, LVL 37 You find even more ammunition in containers. 001EB99C

Allows certain types of ammunition to be found in random containers such as cabinets, desks, metal cabinets, etc. It works similar to the Fortune Finder perk. If both Scrounger and the Fortune Finder perk are obtained you will find both ammunition and caps in the same containers. If you are the type of player to search extensively through the locations you visit then this perk will be a wise investment.

Notes

  • This version of the perk also applies to enemies as well as containers (unlike in previous games).
  • As Fallout 4 does not have the ability to create ammunition, this perk can be very helpful in obtaining ammunition without having to purchase it.
  • This perk allows you to find extreme amounts of .50 caliber ammunition.
  • This perk only affects the following ammunition types: .308, .38, .44, .45, 5.56mm, 5mm, Fusion cores, and .50 caliber
  • This perk does NOT include the following ammunition types: 10mm, shotgun shells, mini nukes, missiles, plasma cartridge, fusion cell, 2mm EC, gamma round, cryo cell, flares, flamer fuel, cannonballs, syringe ammo, alien blaster rounds, and railway spikes.

Bugs

  • The description of Scrounger 4 is incorrect. It does not increase ammo found like the previous three ranks, but instead offers the player a 5% chance to find a free magazine of ammo whenever they reload an empty gun.
