Flooded Metro (exterior)

 is part of the Metro system under the Capital Wasteland. The metro is mainly caved in, and this area is a maze of utility tunnels and shafts, filled with Mirelurks, with two Mirelurk Kings.


 * The Arlington/Wasteland Metro entrance in the north is falsely named Flooded Metro. This is not the same part. And this is not a shortcut to Arlington Cemetery.
 * The right "Flooded Metro" entrance is west of Arlington Library (halfway to the Nuka-Cola Plant), near a raider camp and a street full of cars.

This entire area is crawling with Mirelurks and Mirelurk Hunters. They're quite resilient and you'll usually be fighting them in close quarters. You should have Combat Shotguns for this.


 * A Random Encounter has been observed to occur above-ground in the plaza by the Arlington Library/raider camp entrance.

Notable Loot

 * When entering from the south, following the tunnel up right, the first room has a Guns and Bullets behind a transformer, near a skeletal corpse. In the same spot is also a Scoped .44 Magnum and some ammunition.
 * Near a shaft close to the Mason District, through a tunnel to the right, is a trapped chamber with another Scoped .44 Magnum and Assault Rifle, but nothing more special than that.
 * In an egg chamber, ankle-deep in water, there is a gun case with a Laser Rifle and Microfusion Cells.
 * The unique unarmed weapon The Shocker is located in this area.
