AZ3 Nuclear Plant in Delta Force Fortune Run
AZ3 Nuclear Plant is one of the Operations maps featured in the Delta Force Fortune Run event, which runs from August 8 to September 7, 2026. AZ3’s treasure activity opens on August 10, 2026, after Zero Dam and Layali Grove, and remains available through the end of the main Fortune Run event.
Fortune Run adds a treasure-hunting layer to Operations. Players obtain a Treasure Map, enter the matching map, follow the clue, locate the cache, dig up the treasure, and extract successfully. The final step is crucial: the treasure is only secured after extraction.
Official event coverage lists Fortune Run activities across Operations and Warfare, including Treasure Maps, map-based treasure missions, the Delta Ticket Giveaway, and event reward tracks. For official game updates, check the Delta Force official website.
AZ3 Treasure Hunt Dates and Access
AZ3’s Fortune Run activity is tied to the Nuclear Plant event phase and opens on August 10. It is part of the wider Operations treasure-hunt schedule.
Event Item | Date | Details |
|---|---|---|
Fortune Run Main Event | August 8-September 7, 2026 | Main treasure-hunt event window |
AZ3 Nuclear Plant Opens | August 10, 2026 | AZ3 treasure clues become available |

To start an AZ3 treasure hunt, you need an AZ3-related Treasure Map or clue from the live Fortune Run event system. Treasure Maps are map-specific, so always confirm that the clue matches AZ3 Nuclear Plant before loading in.
How AZ3 Treasure Clues Work
AZ3 clues usually point players toward recognizable Nuclear Plant landmarks. Some clues are direct, while others rely on environmental shapes, buildings, signs, containers, water routes, or industrial structures.
The general flow is:
Obtain an AZ3 Treasure Map or clue.
Load into AZ3 Nuclear Plant in Operations.
Read the clue carefully.
Match the clue to a landmark.
Dig up the cache.
Extract successfully to secure the reward.
Do not treat a third-party coordinate list as absolute. Community route maps are useful, but the live in-game clue is the final source.
Key AZ3 Nuclear Plant Treasure Areas
Official materials do not publish a full numbered coordinate list for every AZ3 cache. However, community guides and player route sheets commonly point players toward several major AZ3 landmarks. Use the areas below as a practical route-planning checklist.
AZ3 Landmark Area | Why It Matters | Risk Level |
|---|---|---|
Academy of Science | Common clue area with open plaza routes | Medium |
Thermal Power Station | Industrial landmark, likely contested | Medium-High |
Transport Warehouse | Long-route navigation and container clues | Medium |
Seaside Office / Coastal Routes | Water-side clues and exposed movement | High |
Wastewater / Treatment Areas | Hazardous or confusing interiors | High |
Sarcophagus Area | High-traffic zone near major routes | High |
Core Area / Restaurant Zone | Interior clue possibilities | Medium-High |
East Building | Multi-floor navigation and ambush angles | Medium-High |
These are not guaranteed spawn coordinates. They are the areas players should learn first because AZ3 clues often reference recognizable structures rather than simple map markers.
High-Value AZ3 Treasure Clues
Some community guides refer to special high-value clue points, including “Point 8” style locations. These are often described as red-tier reward targets, but this should be handled carefully in a published guide.
A safer and more accurate recommendation is:
Prioritize any AZ3 clue that your live client marks as high-value, rare, red-tier, or special. If the clue points toward a difficult location such as coastal rocks, plant structures, or hazardous terrain, prepare before attempting it.
Avoid writing that every “Point 8” is guaranteed red loot unless your in-game event screen confirms that rule in your region.
Radioactive Water and Hazard Areas
AZ3 Nuclear Plant is more punishing than early maps because some routes may involve hazardous terrain, water-side movement, exposed industrial lanes, or radiation-themed areas.
If your clue leads into a dangerous section, prepare before entering:
Bring enough healing.
Avoid overloading your backpack.
Move with a squad.
Clear the area before digging.
Extract immediately after securing valuable treasure.
If your region’s live event includes a locked room, special access point, or puzzle object, follow the in-game prompt. Do not assume every AZ3 cache uses the same interaction method.
Best AZ3 Treasure Route
The safest AZ3 farming route is not about hitting every possible clue in one raid. It is about finding one valuable treasure, surviving, and extracting.
Start with easier landmark areas such as the Academy of Science, Transport Warehouse, or Thermal Power Station if your clue points there. These areas are easier to read than deeper Nuclear Plant interiors.
Move into riskier areas such as Wastewater, Sarcophagus, and coastal routes only when your squad is prepared. These areas are more likely to create ambushes, especially once other players know Fortune Run rewards are active.
For high-value clues, clear the area first. Digging while enemies are nearby is the fastest way to lose the reward.
AZ3 Squad Tips
AZ3 rewards coordinated squads. A good team setup should include:
One player reading clues and calling landmarks.
One player watching long angles.
One player staying light for fast extraction.
One player carrying extra sustain or utility if needed.
Communication matters more than raw gear. Call out landmark names clearly: Academy, Thermal Power, Sarcophagus, East Building, coastal route, or treatment area. This prevents wasted time and helps the squad rotate quickly after finding the cache.
Solo runs are possible, but AZ3 is dangerous because many clue zones have tight angles, long sightlines, or extraction pressure.
AZ3 Rewards and Currency Notes
AZ3 treasure hunts can contribute to Fortune Run event progress and reward tracks. Event coverage lists rewards such as Treasure Map Selection Packs, Calling Cards, Spray Paint, event cosmetics, and other limited-time items across Fortune Run activities.
Keep the currency systems separate:
Currency or Progress | How to Get It | Main Use |
|---|---|---|
Limited-Time Delta Tickets | Giveaway, missions, milestones | Eligible ticket-supported content |
Delta Coins | Paid top-up | Premium cosmetics, battle pass, paid items |
Event EXP | Fortune Run activities | Event reward progression |
Event Tokens | Specific event tasks | Event exchanges |
If you plan to buy premium cosmetics or keep Delta Coins ready during the event, use the Delta Force top-up page through Topuplist. Free Fortune Run rewards still come from gameplay.
Common AZ3 Mistakes to Avoid
The first mistake is entering AZ3 without confirming that your Treasure Map matches the map. A clue for another Operations map will not help you on AZ3.
The second mistake is treating community point lists as official. Use them as navigation help, but always follow the live clue.
The third mistake is digging before clearing the area. AZ3 has too many angles for careless interaction.
The fourth mistake is staying too long after finding treasure. Extract first, loot later.
The fifth mistake is confusing Delta Tickets with Delta Coins or Event Tokens. They are separate systems.
The sixth mistake is ignoring deadlines. The AZ3 treasure hunt runs until September 7, but the Delta Ticket Giveaway ends August 28, and Limited-Time Delta Tickets expire September 4 at 23:59:59 UTC.
Final AZ3 Checklist
Before entering AZ3:
Confirm your clue is for AZ3 Nuclear Plant.

During the raid:
Read the clue carefully.
Match it to a major landmark.
Clear the dig site before interacting.
Avoid unnecessary fights after finding treasure.
Extract as soon as the reward is secured.
