Chryslus Building

The Chryslus Building is a ruin of a large office building located in the Capital Wasteland, on the outskirts of Downtown DC. It was the head office of the Chryslus Corporation, which manufactured automobiles before the Great War of 2077. At the time, Chryslus were promoting the $199,999.99 Corvega, which was produced at the Corvega Factory, located south west of Vault 108.

In the years since the war, it has become a stronghold for Super Mutants and Centaurs. On the ground floor there are at least 6 Super Mutants, and are a little tricky because they patrol in pairs. They have quite low perception, so one can sneak up quite close and VATS a few shotgun cartridges their way. If in trouble one can evacuate the building, as they do not seem to follow.

Enemies

 * There are a total of 16-20 Super Mutant Brute & Super Mutant Master on the upper & lower offices. As well as 2 Vicious dogs. Not all Super Mutant Brutes walk in pairs. In some of the hallways you will encounter only one.
 * There are 6-8 Centaurs in the basement.

Notable Loot

 * A Guns and Bullets skill book can be found in the northern part of the reception area next to an ammunition box on a table. (It is located in the same room as the Nuka-Cola machine.)
 * A Nuka-Cola Quantum can be found in a crate under a desk in a small room left of the entrance (the one mostly filled with collapsed ceiling debris).
 * A Pugilism Illustrated can be found in the upstairs area of the lower offices, close to a Nuka-Cola machine; look in the row of buckets lined up against the wall.
 * A Pre-War Book is behind the locked door near the Pugilism book.
 * A Big Book of Science skill book is in the basement area at the western-most room on a metal shelf.
 * A Stealth Boy is on top of the large safe in the northern room of the basement, which contains ammo, some caps, and a weapon; also in that room is a terminal that unlocks a smaller safe with a Stealth Boy in it [or not; as usual, contents of safes vary with Level, etc.).

This building is a looter's dream. TONS of components, packs and cartons of cigarettes, and pre-war money. It's one of the few places in Fallout 3 that richly rewards being thorough checking every nook and cranny. Soda bottles on the ground may not be empty. Crates on shelves can be picked up (using the grab function in the PC version or R3 (clicking the right analog stick) in 360/PS3 version) may contain pre-war money and other loot. Strange meat can be found as well, which can be traded to Eclair in Little Lamplight
