Failing that, they\u2019ll likely just chuck a big boulder in your direction. One variant isn\u2019t enough though, as multiple different versions can be spotted roaming around, including the radiation soaked Glowing Behemoth.<\/p>\n<p>If you are brave enough to seek these monstrosities out, or just want to know how best to avoid them, then we have assembled a list of locations in which they can be found. Just in case you run into one and combat is unavoidable, then we also have a handy guide on how to beat a Behemoth.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Fallout 4 Behemoth locations<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Behemoths can be found in multiple locations in Fallout 4, and some will not appear unless your character has ranked up to a certain level.

They are virtually immune to radiation and so avoiding these types of weapons is crucial, as is <strong>using stealth<\/strong> to strike the monster first as you will gain a bonus for being sneaky.<\/p>\n<p>Alternatively, explosives such as <strong>grenades or molotov cocktails<\/strong> have proven to be effective. It is also important to find a way of constantly moving around the beast to avoid falling into its swinging arc. This will, hopefully, keep you clear of melee attacks.<\/p>\n<p>[squirrel-affiliate-playlist squirrel_playlist_id=\u201d653\u2033 \/]<\/p>\n<p>Inevitably, the Behemoth will begin throwing boulders at you and so finding cover quickly is the best solution. From there, you may be able to methodically poke your head out and fire a shot off \u2013 aiming for the head is the best approach as that is a weak spot. HappyThumbsGaming makes this look easy in the video below, which we\u2019ve included as a helpful visual guide.<\/p>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Fallout 4: How to Easily Kill the Behemoth

there\u2019s a good chance you will need to fight it once you have found one, as they don\u2019t take too kindly to visitors.<\/p>\n<p>Players have shown off a variety of tactics that will finish off a Behemoth, including firing a nuke at it, luring it into a field of mines and good old fashioned fire power, so it\u2019s a good chance to get creative with your tactics.<\/p> <p><strong>Read more on
