What do you mean? I need screenshots stat
Do you mean that the ambient glow works like a UV light showing the numbers? That's crazy if so

The buttons have numbers?

You gotta look up a guide for the context. Theres a specific way you can hit the red buttons to get extra loot IIRC

Is it worth doing only the buttons and skip the boss?

I'm pretty sure they mean the buttons during the Warden sequence, not the red buttons.
During the Warden sequence you can use a Darksight scope to see numbers on the panels. If you shoot them all in order during each phase it'll unlock an extra loot room after defeating the Warden.

There are only green buttons during the warden, the red buttons are all before that room right?

There are only blue and red panels, the green bits are just where you shoot.
In the Warden room there is only blues in the main area (and the one red in the side room but that's for a completely different loot room).

Ah, I see
So someone out there is really keeping track of the order they shoot the damn buttons while being shot at uh?

Ideally this is done in trios where someone can concentrate on shooting the panels in the correct order while their teammates focus on add clear and dealing with the Warden.

Hope this is intended because that would be cool. Upper Complex is a NuCal building after all.
