2nd ice pack for the glorious regime prison?

[Turbat]

so I did every single prison and I'm stuck on that one. I just can't find the second ice pack for the cold case escape. the one that's NOT in the medic desk.

I've searched far and wide, most guides just copy pastes the wiki, which just doesn't say.

only other infos I found were message boards saying it's in a random desk in the prison, like most quest items it doesn't respawn so farming desks is pointless (that makes sense) AND that apparently this is pretty much RNG.

thing is, I restarted that prison 5 times in a day and it's just not fun to grind intelligence to go check the medical desk (because a steam post said they found both in it)

anyone knows where that sucker is?

Sadly, it's random and you're just getting very unlucky.

Restarting the prison 5 times and not getting it (assuming you played at least for a few in game days before restarting again) is especially unlucky.

I wasn't aware key items spawn automatically and permanently as whenever I play, I check what desks I can access each day and usually eventually find the right items within 3 in-game days or so, even in a desk that didn't have them initially. If I don't find it within 3-5 days, I usually reset or find some other way out.

If I'm wrong, then there must be a desk you're missing somewhere.

it was indeed randomness. ended up finding it in a regular cell desk.

as for the items not being an every day spawn, it's only true of unique items. things like the gloves in dungeons and duct tape or the jetpack.

these are persistant items that will remain in the save even if confiscated, sent to the guard evidence room.

so it's not ALL quest items, obviously.

I searched every desk I could and thought the generation failed. Then I was given the Appreciation Society quest and it occurred to me that other desks existed behind red doors. So keep farming until you get the red key, then check those desks
