Players must complete a series of missions and patrols to obtain Resonate Stems, which can be combined to create Override Frequencies. Each Override Frequency contains a clue to the location of a Sleeper Node. There are 40 Sleeper Nodes in total, and players must find and interact with all of them to unlock certain features and items.

What You'll Learn
Sleeper Nodes in Destiny 2: Warmind
Sleeper Nodes are a feature of the Warmind expansion of Destiny 2. Players need to use Resonate Stems to create Override Frequencies and use them to open Sleeper Nodes scattered across Mars. There are 40 Sleeper Nodes in total, and players need to find four Resonate Stems to create an Override Frequency. Each Override Frequency contains a clue to the location of a Sleeper Node. For example, the Override Frequency Drift.Gatehouse.Catwalk points players towards the Glacial Drift location around the catwalk near the gatehouse.
Players can stumble upon these Sleeper Nodes as they explore, but they will not be able to open them until they have the matching Override Frequency. When players are close to a Sleeper Node that they have an Override Frequency for, music will start playing, and a visual effect will appear on the screen. For example, the Sleeper Node at Sanctuary can be found behind where Eris Morn is standing. Players need to jump off the ledge, and it will be on the edge overlooking the chasm.
Another example is the Descent.Chasm.Ledge node, which can be found in the cave system to the south of Glacial Drift. Players need to head through the cave system, past the crashed Warsat, hugging the left wall all the way to the cliff. They then need to look over the lip to spot the Sleeper node. The unnamed Mindlab sleeper node can be found just outside the Mindlab on the right-hand side of the building.
To unlock the Sleeper Simulant, players will need to acquire four Resonant Stems and seek out various Sleeper Nodes. The Sleeper Simulant is a fan-favorite exotic weapon that returned in the Rasputin-centric Warmind Destiny 2 expansion.

How to get Resonate Stems
In Destiny 2, players can acquire Resonate Stems in several ways. Resonate Stems can be obtained by completing Patrol missions and Lost Sectors within Hellas Basin, as well as through various activities, including Strikes, Crucible, Gambit, and Nightfall activity completions. They can also be obtained from Seraph Chests at the end of a Heist Battleground from the playlist.
Resonate Stems are needed for two primary tasks: focusing seasonal weaponry and opening Warmind Nodes. To focus weapons, players must unlock the appropriate upgrade at the Exo Frame in the H.E.L.M. This allows them to focus Umbral Engrams into weapons, potentially earning them progress toward weapon patterns.
To open Warmind Nodes, players need to combine four Resonate Stems to create an Override Frequency. Each Override Frequency corresponds to a specific Sleeper Node within the Hellas Basin, and the string of characters displayed for each Override Frequency contains a clue to the location of the Sleeper Node. For example, "Drift.Gatehouse.Catwalk" points players toward the Glacial Drift location around the catwalk near the gatehouse.
Players can increase their efficiency in farming Resonate Stems by combining patrols and events with heroic public events and killing high-value targets. This method can yield up to 7-8 Resonate Stems in 5-6 minutes.

How to create Override Frequencies
To create Override Frequencies, you need to combine four Resonate Stems. These can be acquired by completing Patrol missions and Lost Sectors within the Hellas Basin. Once you have received all four Resonate Stems, go into your inventory and combine them to create an Override Frequency.
Each Override Frequency is connected to a specific Sleeper Node within the Hellas Basin. There are 40 Sleeper Nodes in total, and the item's description will contain a string of characters that hints at the Sleeper Node's position. For example, the string "CV.NAV/RUN.()Dynamo.Approach.Arch" refers to the Dynamo Approach area, with "Arch" being the final piece that helps narrow down the location.
It is important to note that you can only have one Override Frequency in your inventory at a time. If you want multiple Override Frequencies, you can have them sent to your postmaster by filling your consumable list with items other than Override Frequencies.
Additionally, you might encounter issues creating Override Frequencies if you have an active quest. In such cases, you need to complete the active quest before you can create more Override Frequencies.

Locating Sleeper Nodes
Resonate Stems are obtained by completing activities and missions within the Hellas Basin. Each Resonate Stem contains a clue to the location of a Sleeper Node. By combining four Resonate Stems, players can create an Override Frequency, which provides a more specific clue to the location of a Sleeper Node. The Override Frequency can be accessed in the player's inventory, where hovering over it will reveal a string of characters that resembles a file directory location. For example, the string "Drift.Gatehouse.Catwalk" points to the Glacial Drift location near the catwalk by the gatehouse.
To locate the Sleeper Nodes, players must decipher the clues provided in the Override Frequencies. The string of characters after "CV.NAV/RUN.()" in the Override Frequency offers a hint about the Sleeper Node's position. For instance, "CV.NAV/RUN.()Dynamo.Approach.Arch" refers to the Dynamo Approach area, specifically near the stone arch. Cross-referencing the middle part of the string with a map can help players pinpoint the exact location of the desired Sleeper Node.
There are a total of 40 Sleeper Nodes to discover in the Hellas Basin, and players will need to unlock 15 of them to access the Sleeper Simulant. Players can keep track of the Sleeper Nodes they have already located to avoid repeats and expedite their progress. Additionally, it is important to note that the probability of finding a node in the same location where stems are combined is low. Therefore, players should vary their locations when combining stems to increase their chances of discovering new Sleeper Nodes.

After finishing two more missions, "Legacy Code" and "A Piece of the Past", players need to head to Ana Bray and complete three Patrol missions and one Lost Sector within the Hellas Basin. Players will receive items called Resonate Stems, which they can combine to create an Override Frequency. Each Override Frequency is connected to a specific Sleeper Node, and there are 40 in total. Players can hover over the Override Frequency in the menu to see a string of characters that hints at the Sleeper Node's position.
The rewards for interacting with Sleeper Nodes include:
- The Sleeper Simulant, a linear fusion rifle that deals Solar damage and can one-shot enemy Guardians.
- An exotic sword earned from getting 35 lost data fragments.
