How To Farm Code Breakers

Just like Code Analyzers, Code Breakers will drop from defeated enemies while playing through the Sterile Land and Fortress on Hard. This means if players wish to farm this item, they will need to optimize the number of enemies they can defeat in the shortest amount of time. This means that players should prioritize theBattlefield Mission at the Strerile Land called Anticipated Ambush Point. This will give them an ample number of enemies to mow down and repeat.

Code Breakers will come in three forms.Code Breakers, Precision Code Breakers, Ultra-Precision Code Breakers. All of them will be obtained in the same way, but will drop at different frequencies.

How To Use Code Breakers

Just like howCode Analyzersare used toopen upEncrypted Vaultson Normal,Code Breakerswill be used to open up these vaults while playing the game on Hard. If you still have a large cache of Code Analyzers on hand, you will need to change the game back to Normal to use them.

A Code Breaker that is capable of decrypting high-security Encrypted Vaults. It can only be used on Encrypted Vaults in Hard Difficulty fields.

It is highly recommended that you use all of your Code Analyzers first, as this will be great practice, and successful attempts will allow you tocomplete the Magister’s Hidden Assets Mission. In order to find these Encrypted Vaults, players will need to use their scanner. When a player uses a scanner, it will make a specific sound. However, when they are facing the direction of an Encrypted Vault, the sound of the scanner will be noticeably different.

Players will need to rely on this sound to help lead them to where they may find the Encrypted Vault. Players should never attempt to find one of these vaults unless they have an ample amount of Code Breakers, as it can take several attempts to open, and if they run out, they will need to travel back to Anticipated Ambush Point to farm more.

The higher the rarity of the Code Breaker being used, the harder the Encrypted Vault will be to open.
