Secure Containers
The pouch that survives your death: how to get Alpha, Beta, Epsilon, Kappa and Theta, and what none of them will hold.
A secure container is the one piece of your kit that comes back with you when you die. Whatever is inside it is never lost. Everything else you were wearing or carrying stays on your body.
Earning them#
| Container | How you get it |
|---|---|
| Alpha | Free. Your first task is handed to you automatically and completes when you reach the safezone. |
The rest come from the task chains:
| Container | Holds | Task that awards it | Trader | Reputation needed |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Epsilon | 4 × 2 | The Punisher - Part 6 | Prapor | — |
| Theta | 5 × 2 | Secure Container Theta | Ref | — |
| Alpha | 2 × 2 | Secure Container | Arrival | — |
| Beta | 3 × 2 | Secure Container Beta | Peacekeeper | 75,000 |
| Kappa | 3 × 4 | Collector | Kappa | 200,000 |
Bigger is the only difference that matters: a larger container holds more of the things you'd hate to lose. The Task Board shows each container's task in its chain.
How much each holds#
The grids are read from the container mod in the current pack, so what is drawn here is what the game gives you.
What it refuses#
The container is the anti-exploit surface of the whole server, so some things can never go inside it, on purpose:
- explosives and C4 (2)
- grenades (2)
- other secure containers and cases (10)
- magazines (172)
- car keys (1)
The reasoning: C4 that survived death could be carried through a raid indefinitely; a container inside a container is the classic nesting exploit; magazines in the pouch would make a death cost nothing but the gun. Carry your spare mags loaded.
Using it well#
- Keys and keycards. A Lab card is used up on entry, so the one you're carrying is the only one that matters.
- Cash, medals and GP coins.
- Task items — the thing the task asked you to bring back.
- The small, expensive things — LEDX, graphics cards, intel, the barter items that pay.
Anything you can't afford to lose and that fits belongs in it before you deploy, not after the first shot.
