In Code Violet, earrings are some of the most useful collectibles you can find. Each earring gives you a passive bonus that stays active once equipped, making exploration and combat much easier. There are five earrings in total, and each one is hidden inside a different facility.
This guide explains what every earring does and exactly where you need to go to get it, without guesswork or vague directions.
All Earrings Locations in Code Violet
You are able to put on earrings from the Dressing Room after you have collected them. They are the little balls that you can find in different places within the game world like side rooms, vents, or corners that are easily missed.
Stamina Earrings – Testing Facility
The Stamina Earrings make it possible to run longer before getting tired. Thus, it is early in the game that backtracking and getting away from enemies are easier.
These earrings are located in the Testing Facility. Go to the Kitchen area and look for the door that is located just below the security camera. The door is leading to a small pantry. Inside the pantry, you can find several items like Sugar and Blue Pills.
The Stamina Earrings are in this room along with a chest containing a Frag Grenade. There is no puzzle for you to solve; just make sure to check the pantry completely before you leave.
Lucky Drop Earrings – Preservation Facility
The Lucky Drop Earrings allow the enemies to drop more items along with the regular ones when killed. This is beneficial especially when you are harvesting materials or supplies.
These earrings are located in the Preservation Facility, inside the Meat Curing room. This room contains four smaller side rooms. First, check the southwest side to find a chest with Mites inside.
After that, look closely behind the red console in the same area. The Lucky Drop Earrings are hidden behind it, so make sure you check from multiple angles if you do not see them immediately.
Vitality Earrings – Communications Facility
The Vitality Earrings increase the effectiveness of healing items, allowing you to recover more health from the same resources.
You can find them in the Communications Facility. Move to the square hallway where the Cinderline Fence switches are located. From there, look toward the vent positioned opposite the western hallway. Inside this vent, you will find a UV Power Cell along with the Vitality Earrings. You need to crawl into the vent to reach them, so do not skip ventilation paths in this area.
Strength Earrings – Bioengineering Lab
The Strength Earrings boost all weapon damage, making fights faster and reducing how many hits enemies take.
These earrings are located in the Bioengineering Lab, specifically inside the T-Rex DNA Fusion Lab room. Once inside, head toward the southeast corner of the room. You will find the Strength Earrings resting on top of some crates. They are out in the open but easy to overlook if you focus only on terminals or enemies.
Stealth Earrings – Disposal Facility
The Stealth Earrings increase the duration of Glass Camo, thus giving you more time to avoid being seen.
The location of these is in the Disposal Facility, inside the Waste Processing room. Once you walk into the room, you will notice that there is a huge pool of red liquid in the middle surrounded by walkways on both sides.
Use the right walkway first. When you go further, there will be a big pipe that blocks your way. Go under the pipe and then go on until you see a dead end. There are some Mites and the Stealth Earrings at the end of this way.
Tips For Collecting Earrings in Code Violet
You aren’t required to grab the earrings in a certain order, but some are more helpful than others if collected earlier. Stamina and Vitality Earrings are very helpful at the very beginning, while Strength and Stealth become more important along with the enemies that are getting stronger.
Always thoroughly search side rooms, vents, and dead ends. The earrings are never placed on the main paths which are obvious, and if you miss one, it means you lose a permanent bonus. If you explore every facility thoroughly, you will be able to collect all five earrings and gain significant survival improvement in Code Violet.
