Borderlands 3 collectibles: All Eridian Writings, Echo Logs and Typhon Log locations

Guide by Dave Irwin Former Guides Writer

Published on Sept. 26, 2019

With so many collectibles in the worlds of Borderlands 3, it can get a little daunting to try and find all of them. Some of the most elusive are the Typhon Logs and Drop Pods, Eridian Writings, and the Echo Logs that are littered throughout the game in most of the regions. We have found all of them and poped them on maps.

Borderlands 3 collectibles guide

Our Borderlands 3 collectibles guide will have maps of every region, with every single Typhon log, Echo Log, and Eridian Writing in the game, as well as every Typhon Dead Drop once you've obtained the Typhon Logs for each area. The rest of the regions are coming soon.

Typhon Logs and Typhon Drop Pods

The way that Typhon Drop Pods unlock is by collecting the three corresponding Typhon Logs in the area, before finding the Drop Pod and claiming the loot inside. The pods themselves usually contain some experience, dollars, and around five Eridium - which is another currency type used in Crazy Earl's vending machines in Sanctuary.

Eridian Writings

You won't be able to decipher the Borderlands 3 Eridian Writings immediately, in fact it won't be until a fair bit of the way into the game that you will obtain an item called the "Eridian Analyzer". It happens once you access a particular area in the story mode, but once you obtain it, you'll be able to translate all of the points. Your reward for reading these ancient texts is some more Eridium - currency spent via Crazy Earl's vending machines in Sanctuary.

Echo Logs

Echo Logs are the standard Borderlands 3 collectible and really their main purpose is to flesh out the world narrative. They don't really reward you with much on their own besides audio clips for some of the characters in the game.

Borderlands 3 collectibles locations

Now you know what all the most important Borderlands 3 collectibles are, you can look at the maps below highlighting the locations for each and every single Typhon Log, Typhon Drop Pod, Echo Log, and Eridian Writing in the game. My advice for you when locating some of these is to look high and low. Play around with some devices; there's a lift in one sector that you can activate outside of it to send the car down. There will be some platforming
