How to Use Cardboard Box

Allows Snake to avoid detection

Snake can hide from enemies by using a Cardboard Box. While hiding inside a box, he will remain undetected even if he enters the enemy’s line of sight. Therefore, it is recommended to use the cardboard box in areas without a place to hide.

However, the disguise can be undone if you move while an enemy is nearby. Remember to remain still if you are in the enemy’s line of sight.

Snake might get transported to another location while he is hiding in a cardboard box

In Heliport, Nuclear Warhead Storage Building 1F, if you are near the truck while hiding in a box, there’s a chance that an enemy will carry you and put you in the truck. The location where you will be taken depends on the location written on the cardboard box.

Can be used to avoid wolf attacks

In the cave where you are with Meryl, you can get your cardboard box peed on by a wolf. To do this, attack Meryl, then quickly equip the cardboard box. She will then send a wolf to attack you, but instead the wolf will pee on the cardboard box.

That cardboard box will now prevent wolves from attacking you if you use it to hide from them.
