Phantasy Star Online 2: New Genesis - All Red Item Container Locations | Aelio Region

While out exploring the world in Phantasy Star Online 2: New Genesis, you'll come across containers of three different varieties: Green, Gold, and Red. Green containers respawn and simply have N-Grinders for use in Item Enhancement, while Gold containers typically have materials like Photon Quartz. While you should be on the lookout for these boxes, the Red Item Boxes have Star Gems (SG) you can spend in the in-game shop, lots of N-Meseta, and even some augments and good armor.

Not only that, but late in the game you'll get a side Task from Rossa in the command center simply called Red Containers, which will ask you to find and destroy all 113 Red Boxes in Aelio. So you'll want to get on that if you ever want to clear this out of your Task List. 

PSO2: New Genesis - All Red Item Container Locations | Aelio Region

For each region of the map, we've provided a guide map that shows all of the box locations, followed by a listing and screenshot of each box with a small description, in case it's not 100% clear from the guide map alone where the box is.

Note that the numbering is arbitrary, they are not numbered in-game.

Tip: To check how many Red Boxes you've found in a region, open up the World Map from the main menu, mouse over which region you want to check, press Tab, and click on Collectable. This will let you see how many Item Boxes you've found in that region (as well as the number of Datapods).
Tip: You can have your Mag help you find the red containers with its sonar capability. Simply go to the Equipment Menu by hitting Gear/Sub-Pallette, then Mags, then Active Sonar Target Settings, then select Item Container: Red.
