What are metal detectors in Stalcraft used for?
With these items you will be able to easily find hidden caches. They look like mounds in the ground that you can interact with, so you will get items such as aluminum cable and copper wires. Metal detector, if it is in your inventory, will make a distinctive sound when you are close to a hidden cache.
How to get a metal detector in Stalcraft?
You can buy this item from traders, however, it is not recommended. Their quality is tragic. Instead, it is advisable to perform one of the first main missions you receive from Junkman in the Dump Area. This will give you a better version of the metal detector.
How to use metal detectors in Stalcraft?
In order to get more specific information about the location of a hidden cache, you need to enter the inventory, then select the metal detector and put it in your primary slot. You should follow what will appear on your scanner. This will help you quickly and easily find the aforementioned mounds.
In case you will have an inferior version without a scanner, follow the sound. If you hear buzzing in rapid succession and see the LED light up much more frequently, it means that you are very close to the loot area.
Remember to equip the metal detector only when you hear the characteristic sound. This item wears out very quickly, therefore there is no point in walking around with it all the time. The sound will appear even if the metal detector is in your backpack.
Charging the metal detector
Using a metal detector drains the battery rather quickly. When depleted, the item will be unusable. To recharge it, you must go to the generator, which is located near the mechanics in safe zones.
