Zarium Accolade?

[Pairodice]

90 minutes into this mission... music volume at zero, searched every square inch of the map. Watched some video tutorials, I get it... listen for the shimmering sound... yadayada. Wish DE would update the accolade to get marked on the map at 10 or 20 minutes in.

I don't know if it's a bug (maybe it never spawned), but it doesn't matter because I'll never be doing it again.

What a boring waste of time lol

Anyone else feel the same for this mission?

by the way I ended up aborting the mission because I'd rather watch paint dry

once you play enough zariman you get an idea of where the accolade spawns but the easiest way to find them isnt listening for it, its finding the terminal where you use the accolade and searching the area usually 70-90m around it and looking at your minimap as it shows up on loot radar and other similar mods

You really shouldn't let yourself get side-tracked by a side-objective for maybe more than five minutes anyways, unless you're really intentionally practicing or exploring. It's faster to just leave and reset for a proper mission

I... don't normally go out of my way to find them. I blast all the containers and mostly find them on my way in the mission. If you blast all the containers, you shouldn't have any problem finding one since it will show on the Loot Radar (or just use Animal Instinct).

Don't do bounties with the objective to find them without Orokin Eye air support perk. Comes with Parallax landing craft. Altho i'm pretty sure they should spawn every single time, it's a waste of time, to go out of your way and find them just for the sake of it. Avoid bounties that require you to find them and you'll be fine.

My opinion on Zariman is pretty much the same, i dislike the whole idea of these plumes scattered all around the huge tile, it's annoying. It's the reason i kept postponing levelling The Holdfasts syndicate for a long time, i just couldn't find the motivation to search for the plumes. Every once in a while i visited Yonta and traded for the plumes i needed, like Crest or Vane. Once i had enough from trading i levelled the syndicate up, it gets easier from this point on.

it spawns with 150 meters of Melicas terminal. it's a circle.

Hmm interesting...
@pakaku it wasn't a side quest, I was required to find it to complete the mission.

@nocheluz it doesn't show up on the loot radar, I tried that.

@tv I never could find Melicas terminal. I walked along every wall, checked out anything that looked like a computer terminal, no luck.

@tauriz I will look into getting the parallax, that sounds super useful.

Thanks for the feedback everyone, I'm glad I'm not the only one that find this mission frustrating. It was just a terrible first impression

Did they change it? IIRC, they are shown on the mini map as a normal container. Not as special symbol.

That is why, when you blast all containers and get the item drop. The one that you cannot get is most likely Voidplume or Zarium Accolade.

Funny thing about Parallax is - you can get the blueprints from containers in Zariman. But rather than looking for these rare containers it's better to buy a set from warframe market site, costs like 15 plat. And the main blueprint can be bought from in-game market for credits.
