Tips for Killing Mole Rats in Fallout 76

To make killing mole rats easier, consider the following tips:

  • Use Instant-Kill Weapons: Opt for weapons that can instantly kill mole rats. Gradual-damage weapons may cause them to die underground, making it impossible to retrieve their corpses.
  • Server Hopping: Switch servers by returning to the main menu and rejoining the game. This allows you to farm mole rats in the same locations across different servers.
  • Stay Grounded: mole rats tend to hide underground when players are on elevated objects or inaccessible spots. To lure them to the surface, remain on the ground where they can easily detect your presence.

That's everything you need to know about mole rats, including all their locations! If you are looking to find Lesser Devils, Snallygaster, or even Aliens from above, make sure to check out our guide!
