Nuclear Material Locations

There are several ways to obtain this material:

Use an energy weapon (like a plasma rifle) – The bodies of your enemies have a higher chance to contain nuclear material when you do.
Kill certain enemies – The bodies of robots, glowing ghouls and suicide bomber super mutants are likely to have the component on them, no matter what you shoot them with.
Collect junk – Alarm clocks, Blast Radius board game, Biometric scanner, Recorder and the Radioactive gland are just some of the sources of nuclear waste.
Visit the Glowing Sea – The area in the far south-west of the map is heavily irradiated. Lots of radioactive items and radioactive enemies. If you can handle the radiation, it’s a good place to scavenge.

Sadly, we haven’t found a vendor who sells it, yet. If and when we do, we’ll update the guide with more info.
