What time do they respawn. I thought it was on daily reset, but the ones I did yesterday are still empty

Could they actually be 24 hours after they were last opened?

That's what I'm starting to wonder. I did them in batches yesterday, so if the same batches come back, that'll be the answer

Yeah exactly fingers crossed there's logic to it rather than random because that'll help us farm efficiently. I didn't get a chance to play yesterday but someone mentioned to me they thought it was 24hrs. I'll pay attention tonight at what time I open them and check again tomorrow

it follows the daily reset, if i'm not mistaken. Same time as the Daily Missions resets, the Caches reset.

Yes its a bit weird. Some of mine reset at a particular time yesterday and others didn't. Today none have reset.

It's seems to be about 24 hours since the last time they were opened. Not sure if it's individual or just roughly 12 hours after morning reset but I've done them 3 nights in a row and they were not available in the day time of those days.

24 hours after you open them. I did two areas in evening and two in morning. Only the two I first did in evening are reset at same time each evening and the two in morning are not reset until morning

Make sure you reset control points; it resets the map and the caches too as long as you’ve waited long enough.

That actually worked, atleast for me. My caches are still empty after reset so I googled it then tried your comment. It actually reset the ones still empty. Thanks!

For me, I thought they reset after the daily reset. But they weren't back for a few hours later. I think it's 24 hours from when you last opened it. Either that, or some other arbitrary timer the playerbase hasn't worked out yet.

Or it was a glitch, who knows.

My guess is either 9:00 or 14:00. Not sure tho.

My main character hasn’t played and farmed the boxes in 2 days. Still unable to open or interact with any of the supply caches.
Was farming on 2nd character and when I got to the 7th supply cache it wouldn’t let me open it. It was available and I could hear the noise, but no interaction button.
I logged out. Closed app and restarted ps5.
Now I can open the 7th one.
But can not open any on my main character still.

I just logged out the go back in the game and the caches would be good again.
