All POI Special Container and Boss Locations
By Luki
I got tired of looking for those crates even while I couldve sworn I looked through every building.
When I tried to look the location up, I couldnt find anything, except some 30min Youtube Videos (who got time for that).

So I decided to create a Guide myself showing all the special loot crates and named bosses I found.

I can only show what I have explored so far, so please do tell me if I missed anything!

There are two bosses that I encountered inside The Laboratory (Secret Lab).

@kappysub, if you mean the Secret Lab, you need a level 2 keycard to enter. After you went through the keycard door, you enter a room with a door on the left and a door on the right, both of which are locked. To unlock both doors, you need to shoot the power thingy on the wall to your left, behind a broken glass window

how to turn off the system to the lab though?
Luki  [author] 3 Jul @ 11:56pm 
Ah, thought the code was universal. I removed that part
matierre 3 Jul @ 3:22pm 
i think the code changes per player, since the code for me was 4664, not sure if it's a good idea to list the code on the guide because that might misinform some people

@DiTorr: Thank you for your help! I have added Gladewater to the guide.

@Cryzed_972: Thank you for the upddate, I have added the POI crate location for Lawrence Creek.

@matierre: Thank you for the update, I have updated the crate location for the Oil Rig!

@Some1AteMyBrain: The crate changed to a new location - ive just updated the guide. The notepad should still be up there, I added some additional screenshots to hopefully make the location more clear
matierre 2 Jul @ 11:41pm 
oil rig code is still up top on a table next to the antenna, POI crate is underwater in the sunken building :steamhappy:
Some1AteMyBrain 2 Jul @ 6:16am 
the oil rig location for the chest changed,when i went there the tent wasn't there and the chest wasn't there aslo
Cryzed_972 28 Jun @ 11:13am 
The crate at Lawrence Creek is on the rooftop of the building next to the subway entrance

i personally scoured everywhere and thought '' what if it's just on a roof somewhere '' and found it
DiTorr 25 Jun @ 9:42am 
One more to add to the list.
Gladewater is a town in the top left corner of the map. The container is in a garage at the north end of town.
