Template:Quest
Walter's Scrap Metal refers to an unmarked and repeatable quest in Fallout 3.
After the pipes in Megaton are fixed, Walter offers to buy Scrap Metal from you to maintain them.
Reward
- Walter gives you 10 Bottle caps per Scrap Metal; if you decline payment, you will receive +10 Karma.
- You also get a 5 XP reward per Scrap Metal you give Walter.
Notes
- You cannot pickpocket Scrap Metal back from Walter, unlike in The Outcast Collection Agent. It is not even on his corpse.
- If you have XP bonuses (from Well Rested and/or Swift Learner), you should note that the game rounds the bonus up. Thus, with a 10% XP bonus, you will receive 11 XP for all "pairs" of Scrap Metal (because (2 * 5) * 1.10 = 11), and 6 XP for an "odd" piece of Scrap Metal (5 * 1.10 = 6, since it rounds up).
- Scrap Metal can be found throughout the Capital Wasteland and can be purchased from various Merchants.
- This can be a very lucrative ongoing source of income as the game progresses, considering that destroyed robots will occasionally provide scrap metal when looted. Fort Constantine, the National Archives, National Guard Depot, RobCo Facility and the Robot Repair Center can all yield potentially large amounts of scrap metal.
- If you have The Pitt add-on, a better use for the scrap metal might be to use the Ammo Press in the Mill.
Bugs
