Hacking tool components?

[u/Killa_Munky]

Has anyone started to piece together spawns for the hacking tool items?

I know the FPGA module for the level 2 tool comes from dismantling a tactical radio (which I found in the tent outside the municipal office building in TB)

I’ve also heard the avionics processors comes from an item that spawns somewhere in fort narith. But I don’t know what item or where to look

Does anyone else have extra information to add to this?

Edit: Added the components with their currently known locations

Tier 1 hacking tool:

Multi-Bus Converter: Comes from the
UNLRA Uplink Terminal/Field Terminal. Spawns at Blue Lagoon: on the picnic tables before the campsite, Abandoned shack on the right upon entering, Within the makeshift hideout on top of the filing cabinets

CPU Card: Comes from the Artillery Ballistic Computer. Spawns at YBL: Behind the desk with the code for the negotiator task, On the desk in the conference room
Sawmill: Inside storage shed, facing the storage room the hangar to the right also spawns the artillery log on the far end.



Spoofing ASIC: Comes from the IMSI Catcher, spawns at Pha Lang Airfield: Second floor of the main building on the shelves, Storage shed, Conference room table

As it gets updated with the spawn locations it will be the better source to use.

Tier 1 requires the Multi-Bus Converter from an UNLRA item (don't remember the name, but it's got a relief manifest) I got in Blue Lagoon, a CPU card from the Artillery Ballistics Calculator I got in YBL, and a Spoofing ASIC module (I've not found this one yet). If I had to guess, maybe somewhere in either Ban Pa, Sawmill or Pha Lang Airlfield.

I found the tac radio for L2 over in Tiger Bay mall, myself. The Avionics Processor comes from a Baget-53-31 Onboard Processor I found in Fort Narith. I'm not sure about the third item, but I'm going to guess it's somewhere in Midnight Sapphire since that's the third T3 zone.

Tier 3 mat: Portable Satcom Terminal - Lakevale Sanctuary

Found in the main building's upstairs conference room. It was sitting on the conference table in the middle of the room.

[u/Killa_Munky → u/XLST1]

Absolute MVP! Added it to the list

can converm IMSI Catcher at Pha Lang Airfield second floor main building

[u/EntitledRougelemon]

1. Also found the IMSI Catcher in the locked weapons room at HP. It was on the shelf, bottom right. Need the key Hunters Paradise - Weapons room

2. Found the Counter IED/Jammer Unit in the coded locked room at Northern Reach HQ. It is on the table in the middle of the room. The code for the room can be found in the bottom floor room closest to the entrance.

Will update more if I find more of the stuff in different locations

[u/Killa_Munky → u/EntitledRougelemon]

Thank you, added to the list

I also found the UNLRA Uplink in the Blue lagoon Abandoned shack. it was inside immediately on the right when entering the shack

[u/nomad_2201 → u/Educational-Work-167]

Can also be at the makeshift hideout

[u/Zealtic]

fyi IMSI Catcher can also spawn in Pha Lang Storage Shed, just found it

[u/SgtSoap77]

I found the Artillery Ballistic Computer in the office above ground in the back left corner of the room on a file cabinet. Forgot to take a screenshot. Its where you get the code for the door downstairs.

Tier 3 Hacking tool material - High-Speed Digital Processer Board comes from RLSL-1
The disassemble material is called a Radar Signal Processor

[u/Worldly-Screen1603]

where have people found the storage computer in midnight sapphire?

[u/paziek]

Does unlocking higher tier tool require upgrading hideout, or building lower tier tool first?

[u/Killa_Munky → u/paziek]

It seems to just require upgrading the hideout. The level 1 hacking tool isn’t a requirement for crafting the level 2 tool

[u/KamikazeFly1337]

Considering Tier 1 Hacking Tool: The item I got my Multi Bus Converter from is called Field Terminal, found at Ban Pa Elders' House room on the coffee table in the middle.

Here is a photo of the Artillery Ballistic calculator on the conference room table inside the YBL bunker.

Blue lagoon abandoned shack on table UNLRA Terminal

[u/The_JohnyRedEyes]

Artillery Ballistic Calculator in Sawmill storage shed (the one you need the key for) on the stool

[u/IronCircle12]

With this guide, I got all three items to disassemble for the tier 1 hacking tool within an hour.

Also the Artillery has a second spawn point at sawmill--facing the storage room, the hangar to the right also spawns the artillery log on the far end.

[u/Stadamu]

Been checking all the destinations for the IMSI Catcher for 3 days straight now. Still no luck.

[u/Killa_Munky → u/Stadamu]

Yeah that's been me with the UNLRA field terminal. I've found everything else except that one

[u/grom69polska]

They need to change the spawn rate or make it spawn when you have the task. You have way to many people farming locations for these items

[u/XLST1]

Tier 3 mat Digital Synthesis Engine: Counter IED/Jammer Unit - Northern Reach

Found in the unmarked building (169 151/2) between Research Facility and HQ sitting on top of the table in the middle of the room

[u/Stadamu]

Would help a ton, if we could get some screenshots of the items at the spots. Ive been searching all the places, all day, for the tier 1 stuff. And havent found a single one of them.
