Weaver’s Ranger Recon Calling Card – All Intel Locations
The first two Weaver intels are located near spawn:

The first intel is sitting on a blue barrel as you leave the starting area.

The second intel is inside the Guard Tower. To collect it, throw a frag grenade or semtex into the tower to knock the document down.

The final intel for Weaver is inside the Mess Hall, resting on a counter. You can access this area by opening the door after Quick Revive.
Grey’s Analysis Calling Card – Where to Find Every Intel

“Innovative Technology” – Turn on the power, then head back to the Sea Towers. Shoot the stack of papers, and the intel will drop for collection.

“On The Horizon” – Activate the Void Cannon trap near the Gun Platform, and the intel will spawn there.

The last Grey intel is inside the Sea Caves, placed on some pipes next to the door leading into the Bio Lab.

Maya’s Experimental Research Calling Card – Intel Locations
You’ll need a shovel to collect Maya’s first two intels. Find one near the Sea Caves entrance or inside the Mining Tunnels.
“Subject File 398” – Travel to Castle Rock Island (top-right corner of the map) and dig up the intel.

“Subject File 511” – Go to Crab Island and dig at various spots until you find this document.
For the final Maya intel, follow these steps:
Build the Beam Smasher Wonder Weapon.
Find a broken tentacle trap, which can spawn in locations such as:

- Inside the Bio Lab (near two entrances).
- Near spawn.
- Next to the Beam Smasher build room.
Activate the trap, shoot the middle monster head, and grab the Hard Drive to complete the challenge.
Carver’s Covert Action Calling Card – Bugged Intel Warning

“Tougher Than She Looks” – Turn on the power and return to spawn. The intel is sitting on a crate near the lift. However, this intel is bugged—if you save and quit after turning on the power, it may despawn permanently. If this happens, you must start a new game.

The second intel is past the Deadshot Daiquiri perk machine, at the base of a pillar.

For the last Carver intel, you need to defeat Nathan as part of the Main Easter egg. Then, head under the Shipwreck and find the intel next to the ladder leading to the lockdown step.
