Irregular Markers have at least two variants.
Horizons variant
- Shows simply as 'Irregular marker'
- It is ment for Horizons activity
- This variant appears very commonly
It is a cluster of Commodities in canister form guarded by several Skimmers that will become hostile if they detect trespassers.
Odyssey variant
- Shows with [Threat] info, with threat level number
- It is ment for Odyssey on-foot activity
- Second update to Odyssey severely limited spontaneous generation of this variant. They were reported by many players to be almost impossible to find now, outside of a mission target.
It is a cluster of large, locked cargo crates guarded by four criminals. After killing the criminals, a ship will arrive and drop off another four criminals. The two largest crates can be opened with E-Breaches or by using the Arc Cutter to cut open access panels and the Energylink to overload the door controls. Both crates contain three containers of illegal Goods such as Push and Hush, and occasionally some Medkits. There is also a Suit Recharge Socket nearby.
It is a great source of Push drug for Engineer Domino Green.
It may also be the target of illegal recovery missions, in which case the site takes the form of three large cargo containers arranged in a triangular formation, with up to three smaller electronically locked crates outside. The large containers hold between two and three crates, full of various goods, and may be accessed via E-Breach or Arc Cutter & Energylink as noted above. These sites are also an excellent source of Weapon Schematics. There are generally no guards present at these mission-related sites, unlike the two above, and the site also contains a small portable charging station with Suit Recharge Sockets in the center of the formation. The large containers may also have energy cell racks, medkits, and grenade cases, whilst ammo crates may be found outside as well.
One way to find this type of mission is via terminal in base's Concourse, under Procurement category, as Larceny.
