Fallout 3 Hints
Electrical Tower Supply Tips
1 of 6: There are some radioactive barrels inside the fence, but there are also some good items to get.
2 of 6: Quickly run up to the fence's gate and pick it open, then go through it and look for three items straight ahead.
3 of 6: There's a first aid box and a hunting rifle on the ground next to a nearby barrel, plus a radaway item on top of the barrel.
4 of 6: As soon as you have those items, run out of the radiation's range, then check your rads to see if you need to use the radaway right away. If not, wait until later, after you've had to restore health by eating or drinking radioactive things.
5 of 6: If you take too much radiation damage doing this, you should go get and use a rad-x item before trying again. The nearest one is in Silver's house in Springvale (location 2 on the Zone 8 Map). See the Springvale Tour for more info on Springvale.
6 of 6: Also note that if you took the .32 caliber ammo boxes from Silver's house, you'll now be able to use them with your new hunting rifle.
