How to Find Super Uranium
Firstly, there will only be 3 Super Uranium on a map at any given time, in a singular spot and they only spawn on missions at difficulty 7 or higher. That being Suicide Mission, Impossible, and HellDive.
Step 1
Find this rock.
It is a rather distinct penile vertical outcrop with a basalt surface, and white veins running through it. At the base of this rock will be a cluster of 3 Super Uranium. There can sometimes be more than one of these in a given map, so you may be baited into finding one, and getting no samples. Fret not! They are guaranteed to spawn so you will find them eventually.
How do you find these? Well you kind of just need to scrounge for them, once you know what the rock looks like, you can spot them from fairly far away.
Step 2
Collect your goods!
Once you do find them, you will see these odd floating bubbles of what looks like mercury, pick them up and you have your T3 samples (Do not spam the interact button, it can bug out and make them impossible to collect. I have been screwed by this a few times.)!
One more picture to show a little more up close what they look like.
Tips
- You can increase the zoom magnification of your weapon to zero in on longer distances, sometimes making it easier to spot the outcrops at long range.
- Well lit, daytime planets help a lot while hunting. Moons often have very good natural lighting and don’t have many atmospheric obstructions.
- Do not bother trying to hunt these out on missions you will not extract from, you lose all samples if you don’t extract.
- Lighter armor makes hunting these a little easier.
- There is no need to do difficulties higher than 7 while hunting, you don’t need to make collecting these already rather annoying to find boons more difficult.
There could be more than it shows, i’ve had like 4/3. ( or it was a bug, i dunno )
It is a bug unfortunately 🙁 I have run into it before, its a desync issue with the person picking up the sample, and the server registering it twice.
If you complete the radar tower side objective, It will display a bunch of diamonds on your map – These are all points of interests with samples.
If you collect all the samples then the diamond turns into a different symbol on the map – This is also an extremely easy way to find super samples on difficulties 7/8/9 as the special rock you seek comes up as a POI.
We have been doing the main objective and then splitting off in Helldive and hitting all the POI’s prior to extract, Most games leave with 30/30/6 (Green, Orange, Pink)
Very efficient.
Only posting as I did not know this about the radar towers until realising last night, Hope this helps out a few people
Difficulty 8 has 5 samples, not 3.
It’s 3, 5 or 6 Super Rare samples for respective difficulties.
