NieR: Automata - Where To Get The Iron Pipe

Weapon damage in NieR: Automata varies with each swing. Upgrading reduces this damage variance and increases potential damage output.

While many weapons have tighter damage ranges, the Iron Pipe boasts the game's widest spread, yet also possesses exceptionally high potential damage. Its effectiveness is unpredictable, but it's certainly worth acquiring and testing. Here's how:

How To Obtain the Iron Pipe in NieR: Automata

The Iron Pipe is a rare fishing reward found in sewers. Both sewers offer the same drop rate; the one near Resistance Camp is more easily accessible.

Fast travel to Resistance Camp, then head right towards the Amusement Park. After crossing a small gap, you'll find an open manhole under a highway.

Descend into the sewer, enter the water, and begin fishing. You'll also catch other junk items, sellable for funds. There's no guaranteed method to increase your chances; it may take several attempts or several minutes. Use your Pod's light to improve visibility in the dark sewer and track the fish.

An alternate sewer is located en route to the Flooded City.
