Where to Find Metal Scraps in Enshrouded
Metal Scraps are found when breaking down metal cots inside abandoned tents. In the beginning area of the game, there are not many resources of metal available. Players will need to locate the metal cots for their metal scraps so they can build the grappling hook which requires the following.

Once players can make the grappling hook, they can venture into new locations. Others are lurking out in the wild. There are human-like figures that seem to be mutated and carry metal scraps. Killing them will enable players to farm the material. They are often easy to locate as they will appear at run-down buildings or towns and will have camps of their own. Find a man-made structure and they will be nearby.
