In-game Description

Hard and strong building material.
Usage of Metal
Edit
Metal is utilized in the construction and upgrading of most compound structures. It is also needed in crafting certain weapons and all types of ammunition and for completing some of Ivan's tasks.
It can be found throughout the Dead Zone, though the amount scavenged depends on the location being searched, with Large Hardware Stores providing the largest amount.
The Metal Drop Off produces a small amount of Metal every hour and some types of Junk, Components and Gear provide Metal when recycled. It is also possible to trade Fuel for Metal at The Store and many of the removable junk piles scattered across the compound also provide this resource when cleared.
Its associated storage building is Metal Storage.
Several Achievements are associated with scavenging Metal, namely Can Man, Metallic and Heavy Metal.
Strategy
Edit
Metal is easily the most abundant of the three construction resources. It is usually found directly in greater amounts than Wood or Cloth. Furthermore, many common junk items and components produce Metal when recycled, which can easily be found in Small Offices, Offices, Large Offices and Security buildings.
Large Hardware Stores are the best place to find Metal, as well as all other construction resources. Failing this, Construction Sites, Warehouses, and regular Hardware Stores are good places to find Metal.
