This method is useful when you already have maps and want salvage, but it is not a dependable source of Legendary Modules, Gold Bullion, or a particular item.

Farming tips The map copy is consumed on each dig, so carry only the number you intend to spend in that session. Leave room for varied loot; the cache contents are random rather than a fixed reward list. Repeat, collect and use Repeat at the same mound only while you have matching map copies; the farm is limited by consumable maps.
