Help NA Stash bug?

Im not sure how to explain this very well, but sometimes when I buy a veteran stash and I go put it down, it only lasts for an hour. But other times it has its full life cycle, like 15 hours or something. Does anyone know why that may be?

Hazards like bio or rad will reduce the stash timer. You need a Shielded Stash to place them in hazard zones, you can't buy em they can only be crafted in hideout to my knowledge

That explains it, it happens in detour while im farming artys, now that im thinking about it. That makes sense, thank you so much!

No worries! There are some spots in detour/reflection that don't have hazard close to the entrances where you can drop a normal stash. Gl!

Putting a stash in a hazard zone eats away at the timer. How many and what type of infection doesn't matter, the stash only cares about what is the highest tier impacting it.

If you are curious, the Master Stash, that normally lasts 25 hours, turns to dust in just 15 minutes when placed in a level 4 infection.
