Frozen Raider Caches are Pendola Pass's own version of the Raider Cache: a different case, better loot, and the target of a Season 6 trial. Here's every one of them, straight from the game files. There are 13 caches, and each picks one of several possible spots every raid, so you know exactly where to look.
Quick Answer
- Map: Pendola Pass only.
- How many: 13 Frozen Raider Caches, each with 4 to 12 possible spots (98 in total). Each cache picks one of its spots every raid.
- Why bother: they roll from a higher loot tier than regular Raider Caches.
- Trial: they're what Search frozen Raider Caches counts. Regular Raider Caches don't.
All Frozen Raider Cache Locations
Every icon is a spot where a Frozen Raider Cache can appear. The icons come in clusters: each cluster is one cache, and it spawns at one of its spots per raid. Click the map to open the interactive Pendola Pass map with only the Frozen Raider Caches shown.
| Cache area (north to south) | Possible spots |
|---|---|
| Researcher Lodgings | 6 |
| Northern Tracks | 8 |
| Deep-Space Telescope | 10 |
| Dispatch Tower | 6 |
| Frozen River (north) | 10 |
| Porta Benvenuti | 12 |
| Weather Station | 8 |
| Transit Tunnel | 4 |
| Old Town (east) | 5 |
| Old Town (west) | 4 |
| Frozen River (south) | 5 |
| Southern Pass | 10 |
| Old Hamlet | 10 |
Areas are the nearest named locations from the in-game map; the caches sit within about 15 to 140 m of them, at ground level.
What Makes a Cache "Frozen"
In-game a Frozen Raider Cache looks and behaves like any Raider Cache: the prompt is Search Raider Cache and it pings as a Raider Cache. Underneath, three things set it apart:
- Better loot: it rolls from a higher Raider Cache loot tier than the regular caches.
- Different model: a white hard case on a sled-like base with yellow trim.
- Moving spots: each cache picks one of several spots per raid instead of sitting at a fixed position.
Regular Raider Caches on Pendola Pass
Pendola Pass also has 9 regular Raider Caches at fixed spots: two near the Frozen River and two by the Electrical Substation, plus one each at Porta Benvenuti, Old Town, the Deep-Space Telescope, the Transit Tunnel and the Loading Platforms. They're the same supply crates you know from the other maps, with the regular loot tier, and they don't count for the frozen cache trial.
Search frozen Raider Caches (Season 6 Trial)
Only Frozen Raider Caches count for this trial. For a fast run:
- Pick a half. Seven caches sit in the north half of the map (Researcher Lodgings down to the Weather Station) and six in the village and the south. Start with the half closest to your spawn.
- Sweep the cluster, not a point. The cache could be at any spot of its cluster. Most clusters are 100 to 150 m across, so a quick loop through them finds it.
- Mind the cold. If a flash freeze rolls in mid-sweep, get to shelter first and finish the loop after.
