Radscorpion Poison Gland (Fallout 3)

A  is a miscellaneous item that appears in Fallout 3 and Fallout New Vegas. It is a poison gland taken from the tail of a radscorpion, giant radscorpion, or albino radscorpion. A normal radscorpion has a single poison gland, the giant and albino varieties have four.

Uses

 * Poison glands are a component used in the construction of the dart gun.
 * At weight 1 and a value of 30 caps, Radscorpion poison glands have a very high weight-to-value ratio, higher than any other miscellaneous item short of certain unique or quest-related items (and weightless items). Because poison glands are effectively limitless in supply they provide a reliable way of making money throughout the game.

Locations

 * One in the Trapper's Shack basement in the Point Lookout add-on.
 * Aside from the above locations, radscorpions can be found all over the Capital Wasteland (though they are less common in urban areas).

Bugs

 * When fired at a wall through the Rock-It launcher, they may become stuck in the wall, like railway spikes. However, it has not been tested if they can also nail humans, ghouls, or super mutants to a wall, but this is unlikely due to the fact it sometimes bounces off the wall instead of embedding itself.
