Devious Paintings mark secret loot caches in Once Human. It is a two-part treasure hunt: finding the initial paintings and then tracking down the actual rewards. In most cases, the loot crates are within the same region of the painting, while at other points you may need to travel a good distance. Since this is a seasonal mission, you’ll want to collect all the goods as soon as possible before the Devious Paintings become inaccessible.
To make things quicker, aim to find the paintings closest to your base. If you need to, you can even move the base to a new territory. This will help relieve the amount of trekking you’ll need to do any order to gain every crate. However, this might not be possible on all servers of Once Human. A world can be freely populated by many players and there is only room for so many bases. Consider becoming allies with other players to help avoid dangers along the way to a Devious Painting.

To begin your search, you must first find a Devious Painting. Without one, the corresponding loot crate will not yet be accessible. Loot crates are very noticeable as they glow with a purple beacon. If you get lost on the way, the paintings can be reexamined at any time in the diary.

The vast majority of the Devious Painting loot is Energy Links, a very useful commodity in Once Human. You can either spend it quickly or amass savings from redeeming active codes. Some of the July ones are still valid, but it’s also possible to find more Energy Link codes across social media platforms like Reddit, Facebook, and X.
