what can you get in the beacon crates in sand raiders of sophie
In Sand: Raiders of Sophie , “beacon crates” (officially called Radio Beacon Boxes or Box with Radio Beacon) don’t contain a random loot pool like normal ammo/food/weapon crates; they are a single high-value item that you carry out and sell for cash.
What you actually “get” from a beacon crate
When you pick up a Radio Beacon Box:
- You get one item : the Radio Beacon Box itself.
- Its main value is that it can be sold for 2,000 Crowns at your base after you extract with it.
- Unlike normal loot crates, it does not give you extra ammo, food, weapons, or materials inside it; it’s not a container with multiple items, just a single valuable object.
So the answer to “what can you get in the beacon crates” is: you get a Radio Beacon Box item worth 2,000 Crowns.
How the beacon crate works in practice
1. Finding the crate
- The crate is a yellow metal box that appears at major landmarks and points of interest (POIs).
- It has an active beacon and emits a beeping sound you can follow to locate it.
- Spawn locations are random , not fixed to one exact spot per landmark.
2. Risks of picking it up
- When you pick up the Radio Beacon Box, your position is revealed on the map to all other teams in the match.
- This effectively turns you into a high-priority target, especially in Storm Drive or contested lobbies, because everyone can see where you are while you’re carrying it.
3. Delivering and selling it
- There is no special NPC or drop-off point for the box.
- To “deliver” it, you must:
- Put the box inside your Trampler (your vehicle/walker storage).
2. Successfully **extract** from the raid at any radio tower extraction point.
- Once the run ends and you extract with the box, the associated quest (“Box with a Radio Beacon delivery”) completes automatically.
- Then, at your base:
- Open the shop tab.
- Select the Box with Radio Beacon.
- Sell it for 2,000 Crowns.
This single payout makes it one of the most profitable items you can carry out of a raid.
Strategy tips for beacon crates
Based on common player advice:
- Loot everything first , then pick up the beacon box as your last action in a landmark, so you’re not exposed while still rummaging.
- Once you have the box:
- Stow it in your Trampler.
- Stop wandering and head straight to an extraction point (radio tower).
- You have about 2 hours (real-time) from the moment you pick it up to extract, so you can either:
- Escape immediately, or
- Grab one more beacon box if you’re confident and can still get to an extraction point safely.
Summary: In beacon crates (Radio Beacon Boxes) in Sand: Raiders of Sophie , you get one item only : the Radio Beacon Box itself, which after a successful extraction can be sold for 2,000 Crowns at your base.
