When going through a game’s vast open world, you might miss a few things like loot chests or items of importance. We can’t blame you; these game maps can be massive and it’s easy to get lost on them. If you do want to know where the loot is, you should know where to look first!
In Once Human, the map can be so huge that they had to put markers and checklists so that players don’t miss anything. Even with a list, it can be quite a hassle to find all of those loot crates and treasures in the game.
In this guide, we’ll show you the exact location of all the treasures and loot crates in Dayton Hospital. We’ll go through where you’ll need to go and what you can do to get that loot. Let’s not miss any of those potential great items and materials!
Dayton Hospital All Mystical, Weapon & Gear Crates Location
There are a ton of loot crates that you can find all around the map of Once Human. Some of these areas even have lists that you can use to guide you on what crates are in an area. Sometimes, these lists don’t show everything though so keep that in mind!
SIDE NOTE: We have a collective and complete guide for all Weapon, Gear & Mystical crates in all the locations of Once Human, make sure to check it out!
Here are all of the notable loot crates and puzzles that you can find in the Dayton Hospital Area. There is even a puzzle that rewards you with another crate if you solve it!
Rift Anchor
First off, we’ll want to look for the Rift Anchor in the area which is the easiest one to find. It usually has a large purple light emitting from it straight into the sky like in the image below.
The Rift Anchor for this area is right next to the hospital in the parking lot. Make sure that you clear the area of hostiles first so you don’t get attacked while looting!
Gear Crate #1
From the Rift Anchor, head towards the southeastern parts of the area. There, you’ll find a statue as shown below.
Go behind the statue and you can find a Gear Crate just at the base. These crates can give you armor pieces or upgrades, so let’s hope you get something good!
Gear Crate #2
For the next crate, you’ll need to go inside the hospital proper. To do this, go to the parking lot and then head up the stairs as shown below. When you turn left, you’ll see an open door that lets you inside the hospital.
Once inside, head to the back and then go up the staircase shown below.
Once you’re on the second floor, go to the left and then follow the hallway as shown below.
Keep going left past the other staircase and then continue down the hallway. Then, turn left to a door that leads to a balcony.
Follow the balcony to the very end where there’s a door to the left that leads to another room.
Inside that room is another Gear Crate that you can loot!
Mystical Crate
For the next one, you’ll need to backtrack going back to the balcony and into the hospital again. Go to the left where you’ll need to head up the stairs.
Once up the stairs, head straight to where it says Nurses Station and then, head to the right. You’ll go through a room that has a crashed helicopter. Follow the hallway of rooms as you go through two holes in the wall.
You’ll then emerge to another hallway where you can see a staircase. Use that to go up to the roof.
Once on the roof, look to the right where you can find the helicopter landing pad. At the base is a Mystical Crate. These crates often give you blueprint fragments, so it’s a good idea to get them.
Billboard Puzzle
For the last point of interest, we’ll have to go far to the east of the hospital on the road. Head over to where two roads meet as shown on the map below.
There, you’ll find these 4 traffic cones that you’ll want to investigate by interacting with it. This is a start to a puzzle and you’ll need to stay in the square to solve it.
When you investigate the square, the camera will pan to a billboard broken into two. You’ll need to move around the square while you position your camera, so that the billboard looks like it’s fixed. You can use the image below as a reference for what the billboard should look like.
The billboard should glow purple when it’s in the right spot. Once you’ve done the puzzle, a chest will appear in front of you and then you can loot it!
Those are all of the treasures and loot crates that you can find around Dayton Hospital in Once Human. Now go out there and try and get them all! Are you having trouble boiling water in the game? Check out our How To Boil Water Guide for more details!
