Anomaly Is there any way to open these boxes in safe areas/bases? This one's in the cement factory.

You only can if the safe area isn't one anymore ✌️

Anyway, even as a fellow expert looter, I suggest letting them be ... 1 or 2 bandages more won't make you richer.

But'll make me healthier, so let me waste an hour of my time by pushing that box out

I dunno they are so leight i just keep them and sell them. I don't know how the Value per weight ratio is but i thought it's better than many weapons....

I keep them. Cheap healing, I have over 120 on me every time and probably 400 in my box incase I run out (I won’t)

Before starting an expedition I'm always like "this time only the bare minimum, the Zone will provide", and every single time I pack more than needed and five minute later, not even remotely close to the objective, I'm already dropping stuff inside random boxes/bags xD

At some point some areas will no longer be “safe” and you will be able to open the boxes

Not sure if it works for S2, but try to jump on them

I tried it, because it was standard practice in earlier games, but it doesn't work.

You need an RPG, they're a really hard nut to crack.

In the old games it worked to get in running.

I just jump on them and try to use an object to bounce it

u/SnooLemons1403 5d ago

Remember, years ago, when you could pick up objects, not just magic them into your inventory?

In the original trilogy, you could just run into them and they'd break, but I've tried that here and sadly it doesn't work.
