Radscorpion Poison Gland (Fallout 3)

The poison glands 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 one of the better value:weight ratios. It's an excellent way of making money.
 * Notes: 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.

Item Locations

 * There are 2 Giant Radscorpions north of the Wheaton Armory and East of Minefield on what looks like a road line on the map.
 * There are 2 Giant Radscorpions just north of the Regulator HQ.
 * There are quite a few Giant Radscorpions on the very far west of the map over by Vault 87. Also try very mountainous rocky areas.
 * There is one Giant Radscorpion in the very southwest corner part of the map SW of the Dunwich Building by a radiated pool and the corner's bordering fence.
 * Directly southeast of Fort Bannister in the ruins of a somewhat small square building, I came upon one fighting a Giant Soldier Ant.
 * Aside from the above locations, Giant Radscorpions can be found all over the Capital Wasteland (though they are less common in urban areas).
