Earth Spy vaults; detected even though I wasn't

[cromignon]

This almost always happens in the vault that's at the bottom of the 'water slide'. I'll get into the vault undetected, and press X to start the hacking procedure, but that's what sets off the alarm?

Were you invisible the entire time?

Did you brush an enemy?  That would be enough to send one to an alarm panel.

Did you collide with, or accidentally run on top of, the console? It sometimes will trigger an alarm if you do that (I'm not sure what exactly it is, but if you're too exuberant when you approach the console, it sometimes triggers).

One word: deoderant.

When was the last time you changed your Warframe?

Just go to Uranus and get into shrakwing. Those water cleanses odour.

 

Try one shotting the drone in front of the vault then hack, just to see if their scanner detects you through the glass panel.

One way you could have trigger alarm that I did multiple times is to prematurely try to hack while sliding. On most consoles that counts as a canceled hack and thus it tirggers alarm coz canceled hack means failed hack.
