Fallout 3 Hints
Dupont Circle Station
1 of 12: This metro area has exits to Dupont Station (Dupont Circle region) and the Metro Central area. It also has exits to the Collapsed Car Tunnel, but it doesn't count as a metro area. This guided tour assumes you're entering from the Metro Central area.
2 of 12: Look around the tunnel you start in for tin cans and ghoul corpses to raid, then head down the tunnel, watching out for traps.
3 of 12: Past the traps is a stack of cinderblocks. Look around them for bodies and an ammo box to raid, plus an assault rifle and two frag grenades (near the ammo box) before going through the nearby utility door.
4 of 12: In the cave room, avoid radiation damage by getting on the walkway and staying on it until you get to the cave tunnel past it.
5 of 12: Sneak down the tunnel to reach the next big cave room, where you'll find several raiders and two turrets waiting for you.
6 of 12: Use the metal stairs and walkway to reach a higher room with a desk and some filing cabinets to search. There's also a terminal to the left of the open door that you can get XP for hacking if your Science skill is high enough.
7 of 12: Head north from that room and up some stairs to find another raider hanging out near a side area that has two ammo boxes, some shelves with a first aid box, rad-x, dirty water (2), and radaway (2) items, and a table with scotch, buffout, med-x, jet, stimpak, and psycho items on it.
8 of 12: Past the next door, go into Sneak mode before going down the steps and turning left. Just ahead is a raider fortification where you may be able to catch a raider sleeping.
9 of 12: In any case, kill him, then search his living area to find a bed you can sleep in, a steam gauge assembly on a table, and the following items on shelves: a .32 pistol, a medical brace, three whiskey bottles, and an ammo box. There's also an ammo box on the ground next to the shelves, a metal box near the living area's entrance, and another ammo box behind the sandbag wall.
10 of 12: Look around the tracks for tin cans if you want to, then go up the stairs and through the door that's across the tracks from the sandbag wall. Past some more stairs is a door to a large hallway.
11 of 12: Past the Nuka-Cola vending machine and garbage can is an exit to the Dupont Station area. Back down the hallway a bit is a side door that leads to a large room.
