Where to find Radtoads in Fallout 76, all locations

The post-apocalyptic world of Fallout 76 is filled with all kinds of mutated critters, some more horrifying than others. But often, hunting them down is a necessity and can result in some useful items. Radtoads, the giant post-nuclear version of a frog, is one of the less app🌄ealing mutants, with multiple eyes and exploding eggs. So just where can you find these delightful creatures, and what are they good for?

“Deal a Critical Hit to a Radtoad” Daily Quest

One of the first reasons you may seek out these giant amphibians is to complete the daily quest called “Deal a Critical Hit to a Radtoad.” It’s a simple enough ask, and the quest actually teaches you the best way to down these mutants without having to deal with their troublesome attacks: from a distance with a crit hit. But before that, you must find one, and Radtoads in Fallout 76 spawn in a few specific areas in Appalachia.

Radtoad spawn locations

• Beckwith Farm – Low chance to spawn
• The Forest – Throughout the area
• Grafton – On the outskirts of the town
• Helvetia – The first wave of enemies to appear during the “Fasnacht Day” event
• Landview Lighthouse – Always spawn during the “Path of Enlightenment” event
• The Giant Teapot – Possibility to spawn during the “Tea Time” event
• The Sludge Hole – High chance to spawn
• Toxic Valley – Throughout the area

Increased Carry Weight

While slaughtering Radtoads, you’ll likely pick up eggs and legs🐽, both of which can be used in cooking. The eggs make a Radtoad omelette that provides some health regen and a slight endurance boost. The real gems are the legs, though, which can give a nice increase to your Carry Weight.

Cooking legs with Wood will result in Grilled Radtoad and +10 Carry Weight for 30 minutes. But chowing down on Fried Radtoad Legs will get you +20 Carry𒁏 Weight, doubled if you have the Carnivore mutation, along with +60 HP and 20% Food.

Taming a Radtoad

If you have the Animal Friend perk equipped, Radtoads in Fallout 76 can also be tamed and sent to defend your C.A.M.P. There are 🧸nearly a dozen variants of the critters, and they can all be tamed. So after you’ve taken one out for the daily quest and chopped up a few more for stat boosts, it might be worth taking a tour to see the different v🦄arieties and make one your pet.
