Radstages in Fallout 76 are easy to identify at a glance. You'll find one of these two-headed deers eventually in Appalachia - but they are not as common as you'd think. If you're looking for easy ways to find these cyst-laden mutated stags in Fallout 4, you have come to the right place.

While approaching most variants of Radstags will make them flee, some are aggressive and attack you with hooves or headbutts. They can drop various items depending on the variant and be a useful source of rare materials in the game.

This article will list all Radstag locations and the loot drops for all its variants.
