Points of Interest

In Helldivers 2, Points of Interest are scattered around the area of operation. The amount that can be found varies. Points of Interest can be sought out in multiple ways;
 * when looking in the direction and being within 50-100m of one, a question mark icon appears on the compass
 * on the minimap, hovering over places with the cursor. This method is currently not 100% reliable
 * completing the Satellite side objective

Special Loot
Most Points of Interest feature a special loot vessel. A Pod has space for 1, a Container has space for 2, and a Bunker has space for 3 with possible additional Supplies inside.

Special Loot may be one of the following:
 * a Support Weapon
 * a case of 10 or 100 Super Credits
 * a Requisition Slip
 * a case of 1-3 Medals
 * an undocumented Rare Sample

An undocumented Rare Sample is a sample that doesn't count towards the sample limit counter located on the top right corner during a mission.
