In Destiny 2, players can track sleeper nodes to unlock the Sleeper Simulant exotic weapon. There are 40 sleeper nodes in total, and players can find them by combining Resonate Stems to create an Override Frequency, which provides a string of characters that hints at the node's location. Players can also refer to online guides and forums for specific node locations. Additionally, there are in-game cues, such as changes in music and lighting, that indicate proximity to a sleeper node. While there is no official tracking system, players have devised methods to keep track of visited nodes, such as manually listing them or using third-party websites.

How to find Sleeper Nodes in Destiny 2: Warmind

Sleeper Nodes are a type of collectible item in Destiny 2's Warmind expansion. They are black, pyramid-shaped boxes that can be found on Mars. To find them, players must first collect four Resonate Stems by completing three patrols and looting a Lost Sector. These stems are then used to create an Override Frequency, which provides a clue to the location of a Sleeper Node. For example, the Override Frequency code CB.NAV/RUN.()Dynamo.Approach.Arch points players towards the Dynamo Approach in the Arch area.

There are a few other known Override Frequencies and their corresponding Sleeper Node locations. The code Drift.Gatehouse.Catwalk leads to the Glacial Drift location around the catwalk near the gatehouse. The Descent.Cavern.Warsat node can be found by heading to the Glacial Drift and then into the caves to the south, where the crashed Warsat is located. The Descent.Chasm.Ledge node is also in the cave system to the south of Glacial Drift, but players must continue past the crashed Warsat and hug the left wall until they reach the cliff. The Descent.Cave.Runes Sleeper node is found by heading south of the Glacial Drift and entering the caves, following the path to the doorway of the Penumbral Depths.

In addition to these specific locations, there are a few general tips for finding Sleeper Nodes. One method is to travel to Hellas Basin, where players can gather components and additional data for Rasputin and access Sleeper Nodes with an IKELOS weapon equipped. Another tip is to listen out for a musical track; as the music gets louder, players will know they are heading in the right direction. The environment lighting will also change when a player is near a Sleeper Node.

How to unlock Sleeper Simulant

To unlock the Sleeper Simulant in Destiny 2, players must first complete the main storyline of the Warmind expansion. This will reward players with the Nascent Dawn 1/5 and Violent Intel items, along with an IKELOS_HC_V1.0.1. The IKELOS HC is vital to acquiring the Sleeper Simulant, as Violent Intel is the first stage of The Machine's Gun questline, which ultimately rewards the player with the Sleeper Simulant.

For the first phase, the player must use an IKELOS weapon and defeat 250 Hive and 100 Cabal on Mars' Hellas Basin region. Any kind of Hive will qualify for the quest, but the Cabal must all be killed with Precision damage. From there, 50 Powerful Enemies must be defeated, though this can take place in any location. Once that step has been completed, the player must then complete five Strikes.

After that, players must complete three waves of Escalation Protocol (three separate instances of the first wave will suffice) and open fifteen Sleeper Nodes (requiring four Resonant Stems each, for a total of 60). An IKELOS weapon must be equipped to earn progress on each of these steps. Finally, the player will need to complete a 360 Light Level version of Will of the Thousands; successful completion will award a Sleeper Simulant appropriate to the player's current Light Level.

Alternatively, to trigger the quest to obtain the Sleeper Simulant, players need to collect four "Golden Age Relics" that randomly drop from Major and Ultra enemies. The relics appear as Legendary Fusion Rifles (labeled "DVALIN-RAS8711-FR00x", with the "x" being a number between 1 and 4) that are added to the Mission items section of the player's inventory.

How to find the Dynamo.Server.Heatshield Sleeper node

To find the Dynamo.Server.Heatshield Sleeper Node in Destiny 2, players must travel to the Alton Dynamo region of Mars. This Sleeper Node is located in an area with a pyramid. To reach it, turn right, then left, and then left again to navigate through the maze of pillars. The node is tucked away in a corner by the large shield gear.

To access Sleeper Nodes, players must travel to Hellas Basin to gather components and additional data for Rasputin. Players must also clear Escalation Protocol levels and access the Sleeper Nodes with an IKELOS weapon equipped.

To increase the chances of getting the override frequency for a particular node, players can combine Resonate Stems in an area that is not Dynamo and has the highest number of nodes. For example, the Aurora Approach. Alternatively, players can combine the Resonate Stems in an area that is not the dynamo.

How to find the Descent.Cavern.Warsat node

To find the Descent.Cavern.Warsat node in Destiny 2, you must first head to the Glacial Drift and then enter the caves to the south. Once you reach the crashed Warsat, look over the cliff behind it to locate the node. The Descent.Chasm.Ledge node can be found in the same cave system to the south of Glacial Drift.

To access Sleeper Nodes, you will need to collect Override Frequencies. Each frequency is valid for a particular Sleeper Node, and the description of the frequency will hint at the location of the node. When you are near a node, you will hear faint music that will grow louder as you approach.

Sleeper Nodes are a type of collectible in Destiny 2. They are floating pyramids found scattered across Mars. To get the first Override Frequency, you will need to complete the story campaign and then finish the blue missions that appear on Mars. This will unlock the Nascent Dawn 1/5 pursuit. Finally, you will need to clear three patrols and a lost sector. This will grant you four Resonant Stems, which can be combined into an Override Frequency.

How to keep track of Sleeper Nodes you've already unlocked

There are 40 Sleeper Nodes (or Override Frequencies) in Destiny 2 that you can collect. You can get some cool rewards when you collect all 40, such as an emblem, a sparrow, and shaders. However, the Nodes you get are determined by RNG (random number generator), and it is possible to get Nodes that you have already received.

To keep track of the Sleeper Nodes you've already unlocked, you can try the following methods:

  • Create a list or checklist and manually track the Nodes you've visited. You can start this list at any time, but the earlier you start, the better.
  • Utilize a spreadsheet program, such as Excel, to keep track of the Nodes you've unlocked.
  • Use online resources, such as YouTube videos, to help identify which Nodes you've already unlocked.
  • Refer to the Checklist tab in Destiny 2, select the drop-down menu for Sleeper Nodes, and it will show you which nodes you have and are missing.
  • Install the Destiny Item Manager to help you manage your Guardian while playing.
