isaac some of the stuff on here needs moving around and this is more a scavenging guide than an item guide. I will add a brief intro on how to scavenge when I get a chance and then most of the article will be what items to take with you.

A few points so far, some of the items in your never bring back section should be brought back. Cyanide for example is needed in the late game for the cafetiere although normally you can leave it outside till needed. Meaty bone should absolutely be brought back all the time, one is needed for defence and it is used in the lure construction. Unlabelled drugs are ok to bring back if you have room, eventually you will get a town addict who will need to take them. Heroes need ovens and fridges so they need bringing back until theres a few kitchens and a lab in town. Resource wise broken electronics and mechanisms are the second most desirable resources after nuts and bolts and electronic components, pipe is way more valuable than duct tape. planks and iron i'd put below logs and scrap this is one of the major pitfalls of scavenging that a lot of people fall for. Any planks and iron brought back from a distance when the town has a factory and hacksaw is hurting the town significantly because its cheaper to produce planks and iron from logs and scrap produced next to town.

As this is mostly a scavenging guide can we rename the page to Scavenging Guide?
The Item guide is really every item's individual page or if you want a list of all items it's on the Bank page. Odeon 07:22, 14 June 2011 (PDT)
