Tips for Farming Neurodes
-
The Thief's Wit, Loot Detector and Animal Instinct mods display the resource caches on the minimap. To identify a resource cache, they should appear as normal loot icons that will not automatically loot when you are near them.
-
Resource caches make a distinctive sound when you are nearby. So if you turn off the background music, you'll find it much easier.
-
Resource caches display a white light, different from the usual green or red lights.
