Grineer Caches

[ModernSamurai]

The Neptune junction on Uranus requires me to find 3 grineer caches on a sabotage mission. I tried multiple times but i have no idea what they look like. Anyone know what they look like and where to find them?

What?! Why?

From the wiki

f resource caches spawn in a mission, the Lotus will inform players of the presence of the caches at the beginning of the mission and will provide a counter indicating how many resource caches are remaining.

They are identified by their white glow instead of the green glow of unlocked standard lockers. Resource caches are usually located in hard-to-access or hidden locations, sometimes in secret rooms not shown on the minimap. These caches will also emit a distinct audible hum that can be used to determine if a cache is nearby. Caches can also be located with loot radar which is provided by individual Thief's Wit and Animal Instinct modules or the Loot Detector aura if equipped by any member of the squad. With loot radar, they will appear on the minimap using the same icon as regular crates.

Thank you sir. And i have to say, it is a really boring objective just for a junction.

Yup -- just load up as many loot radar mods as you can and destroy every loot crate you see on the map.

You'll eventually go to a loot crate that isn't a loot crate but a white glow locker (instead of green / red). Those are the caches.

If you're having trouble finding all 3, remember that loot find has a relatively small vertical window no matter how much you stack. This means you might have to watch map in large vertical tile sets as you jump as high as you can to see if there are some hidden in the upper reaches.

If I'm remembering the tielset correctly, there are 2-3 place I can think of that they like to hide them high up where you're unlikely to see / hear them without specifically looking for them there.

Not neccessarily just for the junction.

Like alot of the junction objectives, it's something they wanted to make sure you were aware of.

There are rewards unique to opening caches in various missions. There is even a "rotation" reward difference where some things are unique to opening all 3 in a mission.

One of the blueprints for an octavia part comes from caches in a mission. Some dual status mods are only obtainable from caches in a different mission (and from baro kiteer rarely). There is even an entire landing craft you can make from blueprints scattered across the star chart in cachhes (people usually just market buy the landing craft).

OK thanks. But overall, finding secrets to progress in the main story is not very fun.
