Where to find Snallygasters in Fallout 76

The best farming locations for one of the creepiest creatures in Appalachia.

Many of the mutated creatures of Fallout 76 are familiar critters from the Pre-War era that are simply larger, faster, and perhaps a tad more aggressive. But there is a class of creatures whose origins arenā€™t immediately obvious. Snallygasters are a part of this mysterious roster of creatures that are so drastically mutated that theyā€™ve lost any resemblance to their non-mutated kin.

Snallygasters are one of the most highly mutated creatures in the Fallout universe. They are completely immune to radiation damage and can spit toxic slime balls that deal poison damage to players. Thankfully, their giant heads are easy targets and take a whopping 150% bonus damage.
