Fallout 3 Hints

Huge Room Notes

  • 1 of 7: Just ahead and to the left is a console with a Sneak skill book on it called "Chinese Army: Spec. Ops. Training Manual."
  • 2 of 7: Go east across the room from there, then go through a doorway with a toolbox on the floor just past it.
  • 3 of 7: When you reach the doorway at the other end of the passage, run for the console past the flaming barrel and grab the assault rifle off of it, then run back for the doorway before you take much radiation damage.
  • 4 of 7: Now go through the doorway and turn left, staying next to the wall as you approach the area with a skeleton on a bed. You should be able to grab the dirty water, vodka, and abraxo cleaner off the small table next to the bed without getting irradiated at all.
  • 5 of 7: However, you will take a bit of radiation while going for the radaway that's on the other side of the bed, and the random clothing item that's in the dresser to the right of the bed. Run back to your "safe wall" as soon as you have those items.
  • 6 of 7: The staircase in the center of the room just leads down to a watery room with a couple of ghouls in it. If you want to kill them for XP, you may want to get their attention, then run for a radiation-free area to fight them in.
  • 7 of 7: When you're done there, go back down the side passage with the toolbox in it and return to the console where you got the Sneak skill book.
