As players enter the decayed ruins of Pittsburgh, Fallout 76 will throw plenty of challenges their way. This includes battling robotic automatons in the location's arena as well as many other obstacles.

In addition to entering the arena, players will be tasked with protecting three members of the Brotherhood of Steel who enter the fray with them. Fortunately, these allies don't die easily and can be revived in combat accordingly if the need arises.

Each time players participate in the arena, they receive different tiers of rewards as the difficulty increases. The rewards will also depend on how many Brotherhood of Steel Members remain alive.

• Four treasury notes
• 40 caps

Tier Three

• 700 experience points

Extra Rewards Between Rounds

• 150 experience points if players can defeat the Golden Eyebot

• 150 caps if players can excite the crowd sufficiently during the battle

Undoubtedly, the top rewards available through Test Your Metal are the rare plans and Power Armor paint jobs. However, the caps and experience are an excellent addition as well.

Legendary Cores are considered one of the top acquisitions for the new update as well, being one of the most vital items dating back to the Steel Reign update. They provide an opportunity to improve one's gear outright without any fanfare.

These cores can be used to apply legendary effects to standard weapons, saving players hours of killing and looting to acquire a preferred gear piece of legendary quality. For higher-level players, these cores are an invaluable asset for continuing to progress through the more difficult aspects of the game.
