How to find each type of rare container

here are 3 types of rare containers (Rare Grineer Storage Containers, Rare Orokin Storage Containers and Rare Corpus Storage) with 2 variants each; the other is differently colored and has different rewards. Here is how you can find them.

How to search for the containers

1. Get yourself a warframe that is not slow and a good loadout to get rid of enemies. You'll want to scan around the map as fast as possible.

2. Buy Codex Scanners from the market and equip them on your gear slot. Bind a key for that slot (for example, C) so you can easily remember and change to your scanner while in combat.

3. Do not have Helios with scanning ability (unless you need to scan other enemies and don't mind getting few scans of the container - the containers require 5 scans to complete).

4. Start a mission on void/corpus/grineer tileset (defense missions seem to have a lot of containers next to each other).

5. Scan everything except the rare containers (even if you find one) until they are green and "already scanned". This will make finding rare containers easier when they appear orange on your codex scanner.

6. After you are done scanning everything other than the rare container, try finding the rare containers by scanning everywhere and look for not yet scanned (orange) objects.

Rare Grineer Storage Container

You'll want to be playing a grineer or infested mission on grineer tileset for this one. Phorid might be a good boss to farm for resources while also looking for rare containers.

So far, I've found two grineer containers in 12 runs when I've been scanning everywhere. I don't know if this is a very good way of getting experience (30 min booster) or formas (seems to be low chance as well), but it might be a good way for some to get some extra formas if that's all they need.

Here are two spawn locations I've found. I suppose the spawns can be anywhere, but more often I have seen them found at end of train tracks (like in second picture) by other players.

Found a Grineer one on earth (like 1 hour into the game) and got Mantis engines blueprint.

[Kevink214]

Found a grineer one on Mars that was reinforced. I can't remember what I got out of it though.

[Jack413man]

found one in corpus, overshot a catwalk during a jump and fell. Closest description, a catwalk that zig zags decenting/accenting between two buildings. It's a decent fall Found it by accident as I said, I fell.

foudn a rare one in an Axi void run. Thing was, I didnt know it was rare but realized it was too little too late because I was confused why it took me 2 or 3 hits just to open up this container

I've found a rare crate while doing a nitain alert (grineer tileset) which game me 50k creds, a resource booster and something other resource (i cant remember if it was affinity or something trivial), there is also a chance to find them while doing quest missions so it may be worth looking around rather than rushing a lot of them

[Mazklaus]

This methos is awesome !! just find one in Sargas Ruk assasination.

Just something to add in your solution : the scanner make a "bip" each time it highlight objects that you don't have complete the scan.

So when you are in a mission where you have already scan all objects and ennemies you can just go in a room and use the scan waiting the highlight and listen if it made a "bip" or not. If you hear it, it's probably a rare storage nearby. By the way the color highlights only work in the room where you are, while the sound can be heard in a perimeter around the object. Must be carefull it seems that the flower you can scan on earth always produce a "bip" because they are always scannable.

This work only for CODEX scanner .

Hope i've been helpfull and thanks again.

[Hejin]

help pls i need to know where is the Reinforced Corpus container cuz need Mantis part last part

[Nomine]

yeah. this is a bit outdated. i might update it at some point.

[Temora]

It's worth noting that the containers will ALWAYS emit a sound, quite audible.

[MIYAMINAMI HIKARI DA YO!]

there will always be at least 1 rare/reinforced grineer container in the law of retribution due to the mission jacking up the spawn rates
