Back in Fallout 3 tonight, I started working on The Pitt, an area filled with slavers and their slaves, pressed into work at a big industrial plant. I didn’t really get too far into it though, instead getting distracted by an initial task to collect some steel ingots. That turned into a search for all of the steel ingots I could find. It took a couple hours, but in the end I found 93 of the 100 ingots on my own and managed to find the remaining 7 with a guide (fortunately they were all ones near the start of the guide).
That gives me some decent unique equipment to finish off the rest of the area, since all of my regular equipment had been stripped away by the slaves. Now back to rescuing something-or-other…
