Mag Lenses.. WHERE?
Guys, I give up. I read all the locations for the mag lenses, but where I go, the places are empty. no lenses.

Can anyone share info, maybe you found this item somewhere else? filing cabinets does not count

What map are you on now? Also, tell me the location of another rare loot item like a hammer, hacksaw, lantern, or bedroll that you have found in your current save.

If you are in pleasant valley, the simplest way to guarantee you'll get one is to just go to mystery lake. There is always a mag lens in mystery lake. These are the four possible ML locations:

Camp office by the bookshelf downstairs

Camp office by the crates upstairs

Forestry lookout (the new one, not the destroyed one)

Trapper's cabin

The only place it can be in pleasant valley is in the farmhouse basement and it's only there in 1/4 of playthroughs.

The only map that always has one is Mystery Lake.

Walk down the tracks from the dam and look up when you get to the yellow train car. That's a very important place to check. It always has an important tool.

In Mystery Lake at Camp Office spots that I know are:
1) Under the counter, behind the somekind of metal box next to filing cabinet
2) Upstairs under the bed next to (left side) stove
3) Upstairs behind 2 wooden crates next to a table

Second spot there is behind the armchair in Trapper's Hut. (or somewhere else in TH... can't remember where exacly but I've found it once there on the ground)

Other than that I haven't see it anywhere else on ML but I would still look around in the Watchtower and Dam.

It is never under the bed in camp office or in the dam in interloper.

Might as well climb to the summit and jump off if you dont find a mag lense :D

As others have said Mystery lake should have one.

Other slim possibilities are FM - Spences Farm on the workbench PV in the basement in skeeters ridge under the stairs. Might be one in broken railroad but i forget exactly where i picked one.

I thought I found one under the bed on loper once... I must have picked it somewhere else in CO then...

About the Dam - I don't know what spawns there and on which difficulty, I just go there and search.

If it wasnt in the farmhouse or the barn then its worth checking.

I found one in HRV on stalker. I think it was in a cache on a ledge between two ropes. Forgot exactly where though.
